Verbatim Bluetooth Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse

Thursday, August 20th, 2009
packaging

I use my laptop as a primary computer, and have become quite accustomed to using a trackpad full-time. I don’t see myself as someone who would carry a mouse with them at all times unless it was more comfortable than using the trackpad, offered more controls, used Bluetooth (which my system supports), and took commonly available batteries or could charge over USB. From the looks of things, Verbatim’s Go Bluetooth should be a contender for space in my laptop bag if it’s comfortable to use for extended periods of time. Continue reading

Just a couple months after we reviewed the Jawbone II, Aliph released the Jawbone Prime. Among the improvements is NoiseAssassin 2.0 which is supposed to work better in windy environments than the Jawbone II’s NoiseAssassin. What exactly do these improvements mean for the consumer? Let’s find out! Continue reading

Olympus E-620 Digital SLR

Sunday, August 16th, 2009
E620-front

The Olympus E-620 is the newest camera body using the Four-Thirds standard for digital SLR cameras. It boasts a small form-factor but packs the functionality of larger SLR cameras by utilizing a smaller sensor, and more compact lenses packed with electronics. It’s a live-view camera with an impressive tilt-swivel LCD screen for hard-to-capture moments. The small size of the body and lenses will certainly appeal to those looking for the flexibility of an SLR system without having to haul the equivalent of a cinder block around their necks. Having never used a Four-Thirds camera system, I’m excited to see what this standard can offer in terms of performance and expandability as a platform. Continue reading

Verbatim Go Nano Wireless Mouse

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009
packaging

I use my laptop as a primary computer, and have become quite accustomed to using a trackpad full-time. It’s become a bit of a necessity, as I don’t feel like carrying a mouse with me. Newer offerings such as the Go Nano from Verbatim are designed to walk a line between being portable and comfortable platforms. In terms of mice, I’m a fan of large platforms that support my wrist with adequate height, so carrying one around has been out of the question. Because I use a Mac, I’ve found that the trackpad is more than adequate in terms of gestured input and overall feel. Until now, I had never seriously used a portable laptop mouse as some of my colleagues do. We’ll see if I can be convinced to carry one with me! Continue reading
