The Apple iPhone headphones are very functional headphones that get the job done. They won't please audiophiles out there, but for the rest of us they are just fine. One of my favorite features is the mic/button that lets you control music (even on my MacBook!) and have conversations. A couple weeks ago I noticed...
Chuck the Ball Game App: Review and Giveaway
With so many games on the App store it's hard to figure out what you'd like and what you wouldn't. Most people just search for the Top 10 and leap in - and some people simply download dozens of free games, hoping to find one they'll like. So, instead of going through that headache, or...

Using your iPhone in Arctic Weather: Tavo Gloves Reviewed
I don't know about the rest of Canada, but here in Ontario it has been a very long, cold, snowy winter.
