Review: MoGo Bluetooth Notebook Mouse

USB Input Device| USB Reviews

Just the other day, Martin of Digital Reviews Network sent me a product review of the MoGo Bluetooth mouse from Newton Peripherals.

I report on the Mogo Mouse earlier and commented on the slim design and handy storage area, in the PCMCIA slot. Martin’s review proves this point and a whole lot more.

The primary goal of the review was to find out if the MoGo mouse really performed as a functional device, despite the small size and slim design.

However, Digital Reviews was very surprised to find it’s an elegant design which is very useful.

“one quick flick and the (hind) legs spring out from underneath making the MoGo mouse poised and more comfortable to use! With that “kickstand” it is eminently “holdable and usable” but not as comfortable of course as a normally proportioned rodent.”

Martin continues; here is another beauty: (more…)

Pinnacle USB TV

The Pinnacle PCTV DVB-T Flash Stick is one of the many TV receiver solutions out in the market these days. Dave Carter from Gadget Centre did a detailed review I’ll share with you. First off, the Pinnacle USB tuner is a step above the rest in that it’s true plug-n-play. There is no loading of software, simply plug in via USB and you’re set-up. This is a big bonus as taking the TV tuner from PC to PC is a snap. (more…)

Review: Maxfield MAX-IVY MP3 Player

Audio| USB News| USB Reviews

Maxfield released their sleek looking MAX-IVY MP3 player just a several month ago. The new product is very attractive, small with high-tech magnesium casing. Sizes are available from 1GB to 4GB and play all the formats one would expect (MP3, WMA, WMA-DRM, OGG, MPEG4, AVI, WMV, JPG). At 14 hours play time and only 42g or 1.5oz the model definitely peaked our interest.

Our friends at Gadget Centre had the following to say in their review,

“The GUI itself is pretty good; the functions are clearly listed and presented with a large icon on the IVY’s decent 1.8in color screen.

Review: Aleratec USB Copy Cruiser Plus

Aleratec USB Copy Cruiser Plus

The USB Copy Cruiser Plus is a USB copy device with the additional convenience of an 8-in-1 card reader. The unit will copy from one memory device to another or from one memory device to a USB flash drive without the need of a PC. This OTG (On-The-Go) USB technology is very useful and the USB Copy Cruiser Plus proves to be just that, useful. For the small foot-print and compact size, just bigger then your palm, the product performs well, is easy to use and provides clear and precise feedback. (more…)
