Geek Tip: Turn A Dance Pad Into A Purse!

Got an old Dance Dance Revolution Pad lying around that you don’t use anymore? Here’s a cool tutorial on how to turn your old dance pad into a purse!
Thanks Liz (I assume your name is Liz, haha) of Liz Revision!
I’m a frustrated Dance Dance Revolution player. I swear, I’m envious of those little kids I see in the mall, prancing around in those Dance Revolution arcade machine. It’s NOT as easy as it seems. And to think I consider myself person with rhythm, at least!
Anyhoo, I’m totally loving this purse. It’s so geek chic! I want to learn how to …read more

Gadgenista Likes: RaggedEdge Laptop Sleeves

These laptop sleeves from Ragged Edge are slightly unique as they are made from sailcloth material. Yep, you got that right. Sail cloth! You know, like from sail boats, hehehe!
So you can imagine how durable the exterior of this laptop sleeve is. It’s also water-resistant, so you won’t have to worry much if you get stuck under the rain, or something. I can’t really say it’s water-proof. I don’t think your laptop will survive if you dunk it inside a swimming pool, while being inside this laptop sleeve.
The inside is well-padded with lightweight polar-fleece, so that your laptop is all …read more

How To: 10 Minute Sewable iPod Remote!

It’s amazing what some people can come up with, really. There are just so many DIY projects out there and this one is probably one of my favorites.
That little kitty plugged to the iPod Touch is actually an iPod remote. The remote has two soft buttons to control your iPod or iPod Touch.
Play/Pause: Single click
Next/Previous Track: Double click
Next/Previous Album: Triple click
Volume Up/Down: Press and hold
You need the following materials to make this very cute iPod remote: magic dock connector, conductive fabrics, yarn, thread, 3M velostat. If you are knowledgeable about circuitry the 10 minute rule might still hold, but seriously …read more

Beamer: iPhone Case With Built-In Light!

Quirky’s been a chest of full treasures lately, with their ingenious USB Split Stick and their adorable Digidude Tripods.
And just today, they came out with their newest product, the Beamer, an iPhone case with a built-in light! Absolutely BRILLIANT! Haha, no pun intended!
Primarily used as a flash for your iPhone, you can also use the light as a flash light. It’s easy to use, too. Just press the button once, the light goes on for 10 seconds, press the button twice in a row and it’ll turn on indefinitely until you turn it off (by pressing the button the 3rd …read more

Brinell Purestorage Drives Are Chic!

Brinell Purestorage Drives Are Chic!

All I can say is, any gadget that’s covered in leather, chrome or exotic wood-y skin can be very, very chic and sexy.
Like this portal HD from Brinell, for example. Probably one of the most chic external HDs I’ve seen around. And of course, for something that looks this good, it doesn’t have a pocket-friendly price. The HDs cost a whopping $250-$350! Woohoo!
Brinelle Purestorage HD comes in 2 sizes (and I’m not talking about the storage capacity): Purestorage XS (1.8″) and Purestorage S (2.5″). The storage capacity on the other hand can go upto 500GB capacity.
I personally love the ones …read more

iSkin solo FX Goes Matte With SE!

I wrote about these iSkin solo FX iPhone cases a few months back and back then I  mentioned that it was one of the nicest iPhone cases I’ve seen in a while. And it still is, actually.
Now iSkin has come out with a better, more elegant version called the iSkin solo FX Special Edition (SE). Instead of having that glossy feel, it now has a matte finish with the same embossed designer pattern.
It also comes in new colors, Onyx (black), Cosmo (pink!) and Ice (white).
Like most iSkin cases, the solo FX SE is slim-fitting and made especially for your iPhone …read more

Byrd & Belle iPhone Case is Awesome!

Sometimes, its the simple things that are most awesome. Like this iPhone case from the Etsy shop of Byrd & Belle.
These iPhone cases are made of Merino wool felt and soft Egyptian cotton interior for the lining. It has a simple leather strap that not only keeps your iPhone or iPod Touch in place, it also act as a cord wrap for your earphones or headphones!
Ingenious!
That’s the one thing I really have to complain about most cases for gadgets. They tend to forget the little things like earphones and other accessories.
Thank the geek gods people are coming out with more …read more

Cute Suede Laptop Tote Bag!

I just love how this laptop bag is designed! Its sort of shaped like a backpack but it doesn’t have backpack shoulder straps. It’s actually a laptop tote bag or a shoulder bag since it comes with an adjustable shoulder strap.
This laptop tote bag is called Parker Laptop Tote. It’s made of suede (MMm, love suede) and patent croc accents. The interior of the bag is made of satin brocade lining and it has a lot of internal pockets for business cards, pens and other little things.
It comes with a cosmetic pouch, too!
This laptop bag is perfect for people who …read more

Cute Mini-Speakers For iPod and Cellphones!

My obsession with portable speakers have been squelched somewhat when Apple came out with the iPod Touch. The iPod Touch as you all know already has built-in speakers.
But sometimes I can’t help but admire portable speakers such as these! They’re so darn cute. And so tiny too, so it’s really perfect for toting around.
These speakers are not only compatible with iPods, but they’re also compatible with other brands of MP3 players and even cellphones! These portable speakers operate on two (2) AAA batteries. I prefer USB chargeable speakers, but I guess these work, too if you’re going out of town …read more
