    We’ve all been there. You’re out and about. You look down at your iPhone, and the battery indicator is screaming. No sweat; you’ll just pop into your favorite spot and charge up. But wait! You forgot your charger at home! How are the honeys gonna hit you up on the two-way if the two-way is dead? The Scosche flipSync, released today, solves all of our dead two-way (I’m seriously going to call it that from now on. Or at least the rest of this post.) problems, without bulking up your bag.

    This iPad clone packs Android 2.1, 10-inch screen, and a 1Ghz Cortex-A8 CPU

    Posted on May 3, 2010 | No Comments
    iPad clones are hitting the scene at such a rapid pace that we simply can't keep track of all them. Most of them aren't worth your time but this boy is turning heads with specs to die for. Within the clearly iPad-inspired bezel is a 1Ghz ARM Cortex-A8 CPU, 512GB or RAM, 10-inch 1024x600 display, and a 2400mAH battery. All that power should run Android 2.1 without breaking a sweat.

    All-weather GPS device handles golf, skiing, running, and more

    Posted on October 15, 2009 | No Comments
    Sport-specific GPS devices can often cost hundreds of dollars each and if you’re someone who's into all different types of outdoor activities like skiing, golfing, and running, buying separate GPS gizmos can add up quickly. Sure, you could probably use your smartphone to run multiple sports GPS apps but then you've got to deal with sweat, the elements, and… um, cell phone thieves that hang around ski resorts. That's a real thing, right?

    Where did this rumor that Microsoft wanted to buy EA start? You know what, it doesn't matter where it started, because it's not true. No, Microsoft has no plans to buy EA, so don't sweat the technique ($1 if you get that reference).

    WiFi detecting cap detects WiFi, deflects funny, attractive people

    In the Old West a man was defined by his hat. Stetson, Ten-Gallon, and Bowler were only three of the myriad hats available to a real man and these hats often stank of pomade and sweat and were frequently infested with lice and caked in a fine crust of dandruff. The Old West totally sucked. Thank God we live in the New West because now, for $14, you can wear a WiFi detecting cap that shows current WiFi levels in your general vicinity. It comes in two styles - circular and, apparently, Engadget- and comes in black, red, or white.
