Hello all, I’m back, yes three days in a row for me with reviews, a new record I think! Anyway, I’ve taken a look at many portable DVD players in my time but this is the first with a 9” screen on it. Geeks.com was kind enough to provide it for my review and it’s the Audiovox D1998PK that features dual headphones and a carrying case that can be attached to the back of a car headrest so you can take it on the go with you.

Mobility Digest Review: Type-S Universal Air Vent Holder
It’s been a while since I’ve posted any reviews here, just really busy, but as of now I’ve got four things coming up for you. I’m going to start off with a universal air vent cell phone holder aptly named the Type-S Universal Air Vent Holder. Very original name isn’t it?! The products isn’t bad, but it’s not the greatest either. I’m using it with my Samsung Galaxy S Captivate in my 2009 Subaru Forester, so read on to see what I learned about it.
Mobility Digest Review: Otterbox Commuter Series for Dell Venue Pro
Otterbox is one of the premier makers of handset cases. We’re going to take a look at the Commuter Series so that you can better decide if it’s worth trading your hard earned cash for it…
Mobility Digest Review: Crackdown 2: Project Sunburst (or Crazy bad ass zombie gps tower defense awesomeness!)
So I played the first Crackdown on my Xbox and loved the series. If you don’t know what it is, I’ll break it down really quick. Imagine you were playing Grand Theft Auto, but instead of being an abnormally awesome gangster, you’re a super human cop that can jump across several sky scrapers while firing … Read more
Mobility Digest Review: Earjax Moxy Earbuds
I don’t know about you but I use my phone for more than a phone, and if you have a smartphone I’m sure you do as well or you’re wasting it. I have a Samsung Galaxy S Captivate that I love and it features a great stock music player, at least I think it is and I use it whenever I can. The Captivate does come with headphones but they’re not that great, at least I don’t think they are so I don’t use them. I like my music to sound good, so I use good headphones or earbuds actually. Today for review I’ve got a set of very good earbuds from a company called Earjax and they’re called the Moxy. They’re very well made and they sound great. One of the great things about these eabuds is that when you buy them, you’re not only getting a great set of earbuds but they’ll donate a portion of the proceeds to the Starkey Hearing Foundation.
Mobility Digest Review: Spider Podium Universal Desk Stand
Today I’ve got a product from our friends across the ocean at Mobile Fun. It’s a unique product for sure, it looks like a spider, I guess that’s why it’s called the Spider Podium Universal Desk Stand. If you didn’t guess it’s a stand, but it’s not only for your phone and desk but it can be used with other devices and other places. The Spider Podium features eight flexible legs that can be positioned in any way you need it to for displaying your device or attaching it to something.
News for September 5th 2010
Hey it’s Sunday! it’s cold here in Pittsburgh this morning, woke up to a brisk 51F.. I know that’s not exactly cold, but it’s been in the high 80s most of last week, quite a change. Anyway, I got myself a new phone, being a reviewer is fun for the most part, but some products you’ve got to send back and that makes me sad sometimes.. Recently I reviewed the Samsung Galaxy S Captivate, I love it, but I had to send it back to Samsung. So yesterday I went to the AT&T store and renewed my contract and bought one for myself because I liked it so much, I’m happy now I guess, that it until the next great phone comes along…
Mobility Digest Review: RightWay Spotter Dale Jr. Edition 4.3" Touchscreen GPS
Today for review Geeks has sent me over another of their GPS Devices, this one though is bit special in that it’s a themed type with Dale Jr as its theme. Yes, it’s a Nascar themed GPS unit that comes with pictures and movies featuring Dale Jr and the GPS uses Dale’s voice to guide you along the way. If you don’t want his voice you can of course change it to one of the other selections. The unit itself is really a portable media player with GPS functionality, it can do movies, music, pictures and even e-books. As a GPS unit it works well really, except for having Dale’s voice guide you, that can be annoying…
Mobility Digest Review: Airlink 101 AP671W 802.11N Access Point
Mobility is not just phones, but things that go with those phones. Most decent phones today have Wi-Fi built into them so you’ll need something to be able to use it right? If you’re looking for one then the smart thing to do would be to get the new 802.11N spec, in either a Wireless N Router or a switch. Chances are that if you’re reading this you’ve got a cable or DSL modem in your home, but you might not have wireless or if you do it’s only 802.11G as most are you get from providers at this point. Some phone today even have wireless N in them, but if you don’t have an N switch or router you won’t be able to fully utilize that speed so it might be time to upgrade or expand your network.
Today for review Geeks.com has sent me over the Airlink 101 AP671W 802.11n Access Point and Switch that despite being inexpensive has several decent features in it. The AP671W can be an Access Point, a Repeater, a Wireless Bridge, Point to Point, Point to Multi-Point or a WDS Bridge. The main feature that everyone should understand is the Access Point, this allows your devices to access the internet through it. One of the other great features of this product is that it can be used as repeater which means it can extend your existing wireless networks range. The AP671W is a basic product with basic features, it’s easy to set up and use and best of all it’s inexpensive.
Mobility Digest Review: Motorola CLIQ XT
I’m back with another review today for you, this one is of the Motorola Cliq XT that’s running Android. The first thing I have to say is that this is a lower end phone, similar to the Motorola Backflip that I already own which I don’t care too much for honestly. The same can be … Read more
