The sleek-looking mini-dock that you see above is currently up for funding on Kickstarter. It looks like it would do a great job of cleaning up the cable mess for people who use their laptop on their desk. The interestingly named W1PPS connects all of the ports on the left-hand side of your 15” MacBook Pro (except for the Thunderbolt port and the headphone port) and sticks it on the floor, or wherever you choose [...]
If I owned my own business I would probably want a business card that people would think was cool, instead of some standard, white and flimsy model that’s simple and to the point, because let’s be honest: those get thrown away. Now Beasty Design offers a card that is both funny and hip, that would definitely make a recipient go “Ha! An iPhone!” The cards come with a glossy finish, and come in a pack [...]
Another day another Apple rumor, but this one is interesting because it is along the lines of what we have long suspected: that the next MacBook Pro is not going to have an optical drive and that it is going to pack two drives: an SSD for booting and a conventional HDD for storage. What is interesting about this rumor is that it fits more with what we expect to see in a MacBook Pro. [...]
The recent malware issues to have struck Mac, namely Flashback and Flashfake, have driven home an uncomfortable truth: Macs are not immune to malware. Speaking to CBR at the Info Security 2012 conference, Eugene Kapersky, CEO of the Kapersky security firm went as far as saying that when it comes to security there is no big difference between OS/X and Windows: “I think they [Apple] are ten years behind Microsoft in terms of security. For [...]
Leave it to the good folks over at Apple to help in the fight of making every gadget that’s not an iPhone obsolete. Though most of us probably don’t lead many boardroom presentations (not sure why I’m making that assumption), my understanding is that laser pointers are still very much the standard in speech-givings. But if you have an iPhone the days of having to remember to pack your laser pointer are now over. The [...]
The folks at Greatest Hits have gone out and created a fragrance that is designed to recreate the smell of the plastic wrap, printed ink on cardboard, paper, plastic and aluminum that one’s nostrils are assailed with every time they open up a new MacBook Pro. From Greatest Hits: The scent created for Greatest Hits encompasses the smell of the plastic wrap covering the box, printed ink on the cardboard, the smell of paper and [...]
There are so many ways I could go about describing this. For instance, I could say things like “MirrorBook Air: Where vanity meets technology.” Or perhaps I could go with “Nothing says ‘I’m a douche’ more than pulling a pocket mirror out of the back pocket of your bootcut True Religion Jeans…no wait, pulling a pocket mirror that looks like a MacBook is way worse, but also sort of expresses your inner geekdom, which I [...]
With iPhone cases available in subway stations, convenience stores, and probably in those claw games where you try and pick up the stuffed animals, there would really have to be something cool about one for me to want to post it. Ok, maybe this one will only seem entertaining for the amount of time it will take me to finish this, click a few category boxes, enter a few “tags” and hit submit, but [...]
![Western Digital Starts Shipping Thunderbolt Drives [Well It’s About Time]](http://www.uberreview.com/wp-content/themes/morning/functions/theme/thumb.php?src=http://www.uberreview.com/wp-content/uploads/my_book_thunderbolt_duo-1-150x150.jpg&w=300&h=150&zc=1&a=c)
Western Digital has started shipping its first Thunderbolt-equipped hard drives, the My Book Thunderbolt Duo. There are two models, which as the name suggests, each carry two hard disk drives – whether you choose the 4TB model or the 6TB model will largely be a matter of budget. While they are both exorbitantly expensive, the 6TB model provides slightly better value for money (the extra 2TB will only cost you an extra $100). The drives [...]
Rumor has it that the folks at 1 Infinite Loop are working on a smaller iPad. There are a couple of possible reasons why the 8-inch (7.85 inches to be precise) iPad rumor won’t go away: Apple might really be making one; or people like the idea so much they hope to talk it into existence. Either way, the idea is out there, and is worth examining. Steve Jobs’ views on a smaller iPad were [...]
The M-27 is a rugged-looking aircraft aluminum iPhone case that comes with a removable 37mm wide angle/macro lens. It is also compatible with a good selection of tripods, microphones and lights. As of yet, there is no word on whether iSteady Shot will release any more lenses but given that the lens is removable that would seem to be the plan. Price: $100
The Snow Lizard AQUA TEK S is, without a doubt, the most interesting rugged iPhone case I have seen in a long, long time. There are a few things that separate this Kickstarter project from the ever expanding rugged case pack: it is waterproof (up to 20 feet), it has an on-board battery pack, and there is a solar charger built into the back of the case. The trade-off, obviously, is size – this thing [...]
