Pelican Case i1015

March 1, 2011 by DaveLeave a Comment

Pelican i1015 (Reviewed: Mar 2011) is the ideal case for the extreme adventurer or outdoor enthusiast.

Double Decker Duffle

March 1, 2011 by DaveLeave a Comment

Double Decker Duffle (Reviewed: Mar 2011) The "beauty" of this product other than its obvious fashionable design is its versatility. This bag can be both a carry on or a roll-aboard (in line wheels with a telescopic handle) and is the latest in the line of travel bags and accessories designed by long time inventor Joy Mangano. This duffle bag is stylish (even the luggage cuff is elegantly designed), yet super practical and durable. It is made … [Read more...]

Hazel Mail

November 1, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

Hazel Mail (Reviewed: Nov 2011) is a slick new service that updates the "old style" process of sending postcards by using the Internet rather than sending a physical paper postcard. Simply bring up their website, www.hazelmail.com and upload one of your travel photos, write your short letter, and fill in the address information. This costs merely $1.50 to send to most locations in the world. For the time it takes to track down a postcard in a … [Read more...]

Booklight

October 1, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

Booklight in a CoverTM (Reviewed: Oct 2010) is a handy little device that provides light for reading (Three AA batteries required). It is cordless, clipless and clutter free. Often we find ourselves traveling in situations both during the day and at night with very little ambient light. This is the answer to reading under low light conditions! Merely slip a small book into the cover pockets, pull up the LED light from the cover spine. This light … [Read more...]

Yak Pak (Reviewed: Oct 2010) sells a variety of laptop and netbook sleeves in various colors, sizes and styles.

The sleeves are available in both foam and neoprene (same material as used in wetsuits) versions with easy 3/4 sleeve zipper access. This is an excellent light … [Read more...]

Vizini

July 1, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

Vizini (Reviewed: Jul 2010) - Where better to test out a product meant to be worn in the sun then the sunny state of Hawaii. We took a Vizini on a recent trip to the big Island to test it out - from sea level to the top of Mauna Kea the Vizini worked as advertised! It is small and lightweight; simply slide in the straps on your sunglasses and voila you have shade without having to wear a cap. Since the Vizini is strapless and is a stand alone … [Read more...]

Kuru Shoes

June 1, 2010 by DaveLeave a Comment

Kuru Shoes (Reviewed: Jun 2010)We recently wore a pair of these shoes on a trip to Hawaii. While being new these shoes hardly needed breaking in and wore wonderfully on hikes in the diverse microclimates of Maui. From running beachside on the edge of the surf to hiking at 10,000 feet on the upper slopes of Haleakala these shoes held up very well to the different rigors. Kuru shoes are lightweight, extremely comfortable, and very breathable … [Read more...]
