Cardboard Radio Review

We got a Cardboard Radio to review and our first thought (and probably yours) was “cardboard?” Yes. Sort of. The mechanical and electrical parts of the radio are made of metal and plastic like a normal radio but the outside is made of eco-friendly recyclable cardboard. Besides the uniqueness factor and clean …

IMG 0311 e1263330765757 375x500 Review: Hitachi SimpleTough 500 GB USB Portable External Hard Drive
We were recently sent a Hitachi SimpleTOUGH 500 GB USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive ST/500GB (Carbon Fiber) Review: Hitachi SimpleTough 500 GB USB Portable External Hard Drive to review, so that’s just what we did. We reviewed the heck out of it. This drive’s unique proposition is that it’s ruggedized and is shock and water resistant.
IMG 0310 500x375 Review: Hitachi SimpleTough 500 GB USB Portable External Hard Drive
The exterior is has a weird textured yet smooth surface with rubber on the edges to absorb spills and falls. As you can see above, the USB cord itself is more like a thick cable than a wire and tucks into the back of the drive itself. The only downside there is that the cord is very short- so it’s not a problem to plug into laptops but for desktops it could get a little hard to place.

Adesso WKB-3100 Compact Wireless Keyboard Review

WKB 3100 500x338 Adesso WKB 3100 Compact Wireless Keyboard Review
We’ve had a few days to spend testing out the Adesso WKB-3100 keyboard here at the CraziestGadgets world product review testing center and laboratory (aka my living room). For those out there in Twitterland and short attention spanville here’s the 6 word recap: “good portable keyboard with trackball. buy.”

The first thing you’ll notice when you open the box to the keyboard is going to be the size and weight. It’s not particularly heavy, which is a good trait for a portable keyboard. The 87 key keyboard is powered by a pair of included (!!) AA batteries. Adesso says the batteries will last for 3 months of regular use before the low battery indicator lights up.
