A few days ago I accidentally cracked the back of my iPhone 4. For a piece of tech that I rely on and use multiple times a day, it’s no fun to use while sharp shards of glass are sticking out of it. Here are a few tips on what you can do if the back of your iPhone 4 breaks. More
It doesn't matter if you are hiking thru the wilderness of Australia or simply stuck in a dead zone with your carrier. When you need to get connected, you need a signal…now. Cue in satellite hubs; these devices will not only help your call go thru, but they have the ability to connect to your phone wirelessly via Bluetooth... More
Do you remember when the first iPhone came out with a price tag of $599? One thing we all remember was the total outcry about the price of the unit. Times have changed, that's for sure. When you can introduce to the market a $300,000 watchphone, that alone is a sign that the economy might be picking up...or that the rich will continue to get richer. More
Struggling with poor cellphone reception is a problem that not only can be frustrating, it can also cause significant issues with work and social life. More damning is the seeming lack of solutions stemming from a small group of national carriers. Below is a guide on how you can boost your cell reception. More
Every ISP touts the blazing speed of their network, and it’s nice to have a fast Internet connection, whether it’s at home or on the go. Fiber to doorstep providers like FIOS and cable providers are constantly touting their speed in TV ads, and in the mobile arena we all recall and hate the networks constantly attempting to stick it to their competitor. We all want the latest and fastest, but the question to be asked is how much speed do we really need? More
When it comes to cases for all portable devices whether it be mobile phones, tablets, pdas, etc... there are generally three camps that people subscribe to: the purists who despise them all thinking they detract from the original design, the customizers who like to put their own flare on the device, or the pragmatists who want their device well protected if it were to suffer a fall. We’ve been thinking about these recently, particularly with the introduction of the new iPad case which will protect it from an impact with a bowling ball dropped three feet from above. The functionality is undeniably nice and all, but do we really want to be toting around a device that looks like the abs of a cartoon superhero? More
With the influx of mobile applications that enter into the market these days, last week’s best apps could be overshadowed by an entirely new set this week. However, good apps withstand the test of time. We recently read up on the Must-Have apps for March 2011 and wanted to share some of our favorites that are tried and true. More
As the market for eBook readers quickly gains pace, we were left looking at our bookshelves, contemplating the demise of our own collection. We sat and glanced at the vacant spot where our CD and record collection once lay. Now, most have been sold as we opted for digital albums to replace them. As we paged through our freebie eBook "Winnie the Pooh" on our iPad, our eyes lit up at the ease of navigation and the readability of it all. And so there we were, sitting on our couch, iPad in hand, pondering the fate of our book collection and whether we should begin to invest in eBooks instead. More
Google announced today the release of Disco, a group-texting app created for iOS by their in-house startup group Slide. They're allowed to operate independently within Google, which explains why they've gone for an iPhone app. To play fair, we've created this roundup of group texting apps for both iOS and Android, and one that works on any phone, smart or no.

The New York Times recently ran a piece titled, "Don't Call Me, I Won't Call You", which immediately resulted in a few friends (and my own girlfriend) forwarding me the piece all throughout last week. I'm notoriously the type who dislikes talking on the phone, preferring email, IM, smoke signals, interpretive dance communication…anything but talking on the phone. It's one of the reasons why it has been oh-so-easy to live without one. But we're wondering if this is a generational characteristic, since parents and older friends still seem to love using good ole voice to communicate… More
