Mophie, who have developed external batteries for Apple products in the past, have come out with a new product that can offer a pick-me-up to your favorite Apple devices.  A common complaint with their external battery packs was the fact that they added unwanted bulk to their iPhones and iPods.  To counter this, Mophie has developed a very small, very portable solution. Three variations will be offered, the first of which is the Mophie Reserve. It will provide a 1,000mAH boost, or almost a full...

When it comes to working with your wireless carrier (ie.; Verizon, AT&T) many people don't realize there are options when it comes to your contract, upgrading and more.  I'd like to make sure you get the best bang for your buck.

My vacation this week is pretty amazing so far.  Even though today's a cloudy day, you just can't help but look and smile because of how great the view is.  While I'm out of town, there are still things that I feel obligated to be doing like administrative work or helping clients.  Having said that, it's great that I have a laptop, and I think once I get an iPad things will be even more convenient since I won't have to lug something so heavy around, and the battery will last much longer. The...

First off, let's do a quick overview of this phone: The Motorola Backflip is designed backwards and at first glance, seems...

I've been doing a lot of networking lately and it is a very powerful tool.  I recommend everyone do it at some point, you'll meet a lot of great people.  I've joined a couple networking groups, a Chamber of Commerce and still want to network more.One very important thing: networking is about building relationships, NOT about closing a sale before you two stop talking.  Once you've built a foundation of trust with a person, you'll not only be able to gain some of their business, but they'll...
