Review: Samsung Galaxy Note – Oversized iPhone Killer?

by on April 7th, 2012 at 10:37 am

Rarely do you begin a review and describe the device as simply “The Monster”. But when it comes to the Samsung Galaxy Note, it’s hard to describe it in any other terms, at least the first time you lay your hands on one. In the current market, there’s nothing that …

by on January 2nd, 2012 at 4:11 pm

I was approached a few weeks ago by the fine folks at RedDreamStar, who asked if I wanted to review their new game called Breaking Eggz. I hemmed and hawed like I normally do, but ultimately said yes. I’m glad that I did. Breaking Eggz allows you the player to …

Review: Motion Math puts “Action” in learning fractions

by on November 14th, 2010 at 5:10 pm

Admit it: math is one of the least-liked areas of schooling. When I taught high school math, I jokingly said it was the dreaded four-letter word of students’ experiences and tried to explain that “fractions are your friends, not your foes!”. I knew the challenges of learning math didn’t have …

In my first ever video review, I take a look at Airlock. A utility that uses the proximity of your bluetooth enabled iPhone or iPod touch to lock/unlock you Mac. I highly recommend it, and you can get your copy for $7.77 at themha.com. Share this:

Review: Consume for iPhone

by on December 25th, 2009 at 12:00 am

Design is what the iPhone is all about. You can argue otherwise, but elegance and substance is what Apple emphasizes in all of their products. Microsoft is utilitarian and “good-enough” for anyone who simply looks at their technology as an appliance to get things done.  I only mention these two …

Review: Night Recorder for iPhone

by on December 24th, 2009 at 1:00 am

Let’s face it, the built-in iPhone recording app that Apple ships with iPhone OS 3.0 kinda sucks. It barely functions on my original iPhone, and the audio quality is awful. That means there is room for improvement for recording apps on iPhone. Night Recorder is aimed at that market, and …

I reviewed Phases 2.0 a few months ago. Since then, my friends at bjango have released Phases 3.0 which brings some new features to the table. The most notable new feature is a new page of detailed information about the moon (and a little about the sun). The information displayed …
