Review: iLuv Flexi-Clear Case with stand for the iPad

by on September 23rd, 2010

Iluv

Unfortunately I do not have an iPad though I have tested accessories on my friend’s and demo’d them in the store (I live 4 blocks away from the Apple Store…how can a city girl resist). Admittedly I am an accessories junkie; send me anything that makes my user experience better and more personable the better.

A while ago I received the iLuv Flexi-Clear Case with stand for the iPad in the pink color. The casing has a dot wave shape design and comes in black, blue, pink, and clear. It is tear proof and damage resistant made with a light-weight flexible material. I tried it out on my pal’s iPad and it was pretty simple to put on. The ports were pretty easy to access and and the case seems durable. I intend on doing a second review once I get an iPad since I will be buying the different patterns of the iLuv Flexi-Clear Case with stand for the iPad. The only thing I don’t think I would utilize is the stand that comes with it; simply because it’s not made to compute on…merely just a stand for your iPad.

This product is perfect for consumers like me that are extremely hard on their products. The iLuv Flexi-Clear Case with stand for your iPad retails for 29.99 and you can purchase is here.

Back to school review: chicboom Keychain Speaker by chicBuds

by on September 16th, 2010

IMG_2590

Since it’s back to school time it got me thinking how different things were back in my day. This may date me but when I was in high school we didn’t have MP3 players or cell phones…just beepers and the discman/ walkman. If you wanted your friend to listen to your mix tape (yeah I said it) or CD at school you had this awkward moment of ear cooties with your friend…and forget about portable speakers because back then I wouldn’t say they were exactly that portable (at least the affordable ones). Who wants to put that in your backpack on top of all the books we had to carry (b/c we didn’t have kindle back in 98′)?

Leap forward to 2010…I was sitting in my condo and I got a package from chicBuds which is a company that specializes in fashion forward electronics. The first little thing that stood out was the chicboom Keychain Speaker and immediately thought teenagers + back to school = genius ( AND why didn’t we have this when I was in HS school?!). In a world consumed of portable devices this seems like it would be ideal for any girl and it’s a key chain…how convenient and cool is that?!  Continue Reading…

Review: Yoda USB Flash Drive

by on May 12th, 2010

YodaWherever it is that you are working you may find that at some point you will need to store information or transfer some information from one place to another. For example you may have written about broadband packages from o2 on one of your computers but then need to edit it on your laptop at home. The easiest way to do this is with a USB flash drive.

Your USB flash drive doesn’t have to be boring. There is a whole range on the market at the moment that are funky looking but that also fulfil their job perfectly. You’ll find one to suit you and your needs with no trouble at all. Today I’m looking at the Yoda themed one.

Review: NOVOPHONE Retro Handset

by on May 5th, 2010

I was asked to review this retro Novophone Retro Handset for cutegeek and I at first laughed at the image. Imagine walking down the streets of San Francisco with this phone plugged into your cell phone. How many strange looks would you get?  I decided the best way to test this out would be to take it to my friend Jeff’s BBQ and have all my iPhone pals try it out…and per the pictures they got a kick out of it.

Review: Favorite Facebook Game App- Platinum Life

by on April 20th, 2010

When my friends and family started playing farm town on Facebook I made fun of them (sorry guys!). I already own a dog and had a garden in Texas. There is no need for me to have a virtual farm nagging me about harvesting and animals. I vowed I would NEVER play one of the Facebook games till I had a demo for Platinum life in Beta. It’s a hip hop game on Facebook that let’s you battle it out as either a DJ, Rapper or Singer. I haven’t been to hip hop class in a while so Platinum Life in Beta seemed to fill the void.

You can dress up your character, battle friends or other players, and play different venues. I decided to be a rapper because I secretly think I should have been a rapper in my younger life (my fake name was Fast Forward). I think there are still a few glitches because I dressed my character up and it didn’t take…still though the game is addictive if you have nothing to do besides look for a job:-). The only thing that annoys me is the “juice level.”

Me: “Dang it I need more juice…”

Marco: “What the heck is juice…”

Me: (Unresponsive and annoyed)

Marco: “What is this juice you talk about?”

I looked over at him in a heated moment of frustration (plus in the middle of critical stages in the game) and in my head I thought:

“I invited you to play this game and you still haven’t accepted my invite! I am not telling you what juice is and furthermore your farm town sucks! HAHA!”

I didn’t say this out loud though I am guessing he will be reading this shortly. Opps!

Anyhow juice is how you get more playing time and points. I think the more time you accrue the more points you get. I have no idea how to get more juice (besides purchasing it…um NO!). All I know is I am at level 13, though I think you can go all the way to level 40…I mean I have a social life so I hope I don’t get that high…Then again I have only been playing it a week and up to level 13. If your into testing out a beta version of Platinum Life and want to live out your inner hip hop side check it out. Just try and battle me…

Review: Pogo Stylus for your iPhone

by on April 13th, 2010

product_pogo_4up When I found out I would be getting a new review for cutegeek I wrote on my Facebook that I was getting a Pogo Stylus for iPhones. My cousin then commented on my status…

Cousin: I miss my Pogoball…

My reply: Man I wish someone would send me that to review…with a counter of how long I could go…genius!

Cousin: counters…geez, you’re SO digital!

I know my cousin was probably being sarcastic but he made a good point. Every day I am always thinking of technology and how I can make something not digital into a digital product. Is there a flower pot that has a digital reminder so you don’t kill you plants? If not I should patent this! OR is there a waterproof blue tooth headset that you can use in the shower/ swimming/ rain for those times when you are on eternal hold or boring conference calls and need to multi-task yet not say a word?

Review: Fauvette Faith, Hope and Love Chicbuds Earbuds

by on April 9th, 2010

I have yet to find Inner Earbuds that actually fit my freakishly small ear canals. I was skeptical when I got the Fauvette Faith, Hope and Love Inner Ear Retractable Earphones by chicBuds because I thought “Great more ear buds that won’t fit.” I loved the design though, on the retractable device it had the words Faith, Hope and Love…all things women should live by. (I have Faith the economy with get better, Hope that I get a day job soon and Love cutegeek :-) . On the earbuds themselves they had I huge crystal covering the entire outside on each side. Who needs earrings when you have these little guys I asked myself!
