What are the Biggest most Bad Ass Hard Drives that money can buy?

July 30, 2016

It's not that I constantly run out of storage but I just loving having more than I need. Yes, I do have a lot of videos and photos, and other bumpf - but most of that can be compartmentalised onto a couple of 2-4TB hard drives. The trouble is I really want to have them all on a SINGLE drive. Just one drive. Driv-ana! Also, I'm really tired of backing up multiple drives. I ...

How to Clip/OCR Magazine & News Articles on your iPad/iPhone

July 15, 2016

There are a number of good document scanners for iOS. My personal favourite is Scanner Pro 7 from Readdle. In fact, Readdle make a number of great Apps to which I must also recommend Documents 5. These Apps allow you to take photos of paper documents and turn them into text-searchable PDF’s using OCR. Then, you can copy and paste text from the results into other ...

Travel Gadgets for Men in a hurry

May 8, 2016

I like to hit the road with all the travel technology I need, just in case - so, it needs to be ultraportable and compact. Curating the ultimate road warrior travel kit has been a process of trial-and-error. Here is my current bag-du-jour... (roughly left to right, then top to bottom) Portable Chopsticks. I like to have my own food utensils in a pinch. You could choose to ...

Plantronics Voyager Legend [REVIEW]

May 1, 2016

I must go through several bluetooth headsets every year in my quest for the perfect storm of portability, battery longevity and range. At the moment, I'm quite smitten by my Plantronics Voyager Legend. This wasn't what I expected, mind you, because it isn't the most svelte-looking unit on the market. However, don't let it's kludgy, 50's hearing-aide style deter you. This is a ...

Jump Cable – USB/Thunderbolt Recharger [REVIEW]

July 27, 2015

The Jump Cable (originally a Kickstarter project from Native Union) is now available in stores. It's a very sound concept that suffers from some problems in its implementation. The idea of the Jump cable is to perform as a USB to Thunderbolt cable for everyday use as well as functioning as an iPhone or iDevice recharger in a pinch. There is a battery embedded in the cable ...

Doxie Portable Scanners – Ultraportable & Simple

July 1, 2015

  As smartphones improve their cameras, they can be used more and more as portable documents scanners (with special Apps). Nevertheless, this works better for smaller items, such as receipts. Trying to scan an A4/Letter sized sheet of paper can be tricky (especially, when you try not to cast a shadow with the phone over the page when you take the picture). If you have ...

FireTV Stick Georestrictions [FAIL]

May 6, 2015

I was excited to test out my new FireTV Stick from Amazon, given that I have an Unlimited Prime account. Unfortunately, none of the video content would play. Each time I tried to watch something that was under my Prime membership, I received a "LICENCE_ERROR" code. Strangely, I could play music that I had matched with the service from my collection - but could not stream movies ...

Lighter Sized External Portable SSD Drive – Freecom mSSD 256GB [REVIEW]

March 31, 2015

The mSSD from Freecom is a fantastically small and lightweight SSD drive that comes in a 128GB or 256GB capacity. One of the benefits of a drive so small is that it fits easily in a shirt pocket and, because it is so light (29g), you'll hardly notice that it's there. It also comes with a USB 3.0 interface so that file transfers are a speedy at 5Gbp/s (as opposed to USB 2.0's ...
