Personal Tech Review: iPhone Skins
Ever since adhesive companies like 3M came up with high-quality sticker materials, companies have slowly but surely been licensing brands, logos and artwork to help us personalize our laptops, car windows and personal electronics. The first generation were a pain to work with because the stickers were often too sticky: put them on slightly wrong and you were quite literally “stuck” and lifting corners to erase stray bubbles or seams could end up ruining the skin and leave it unstuck on one side.

GarageBand Disk Error Solutions
I’ve been working extensively in Apple’s GarageBand on my MacBook Pro and it’s always worked great, except this afternoon I got the error message Core Audio: Disk is too slow (Write) (-10002). What does it mean and how do I fix it? Do I need a new disk drive??
Dave’s Answer:
This doesn’t arise too often for GarageBand users, from what I have been able to research, but there are definitely many discussions about this particular error message, the “disk is too slow” error, that you can find online.
Unfortunately I haven’t found any definitive answer about why you might suddenly see this after working for days, weeks or even months on your computer with the very same type of projects.

Tech Review: MiFi Station From Verizon
Imagine a device that’s about the size of three credit cards and can let you and four of your friends (or multiple of your devices) connect to the Internet at decent 3G speeds, all while sitting in your briefcase / computer bag / coat pocket. The up-and-coming “mifi” (mobile wifi) devices are a fascinating hybrid gizmo that offers the smallest wifi base station you can imagine, tapping into either the Verizon or Sprint data networks.

Cool Gadgets From CES 2009
Day Two of the huge Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, and we decided to check out the Central and North halls of the unimaginably massive Las Vegas Convention Center. The Central Hall seemed to be dominated by large tech companies, notably Microsoft, Intel, Motorola, and the like, along with a sprinkling of accessory manufacturers dwelling on the periphery.
The North Hall was in-car audio and mobile audio and devices, which was less well attended and, to my interests, less interesting. More amazing cars and lots of “booth babes” who were dressed exactly as they’d been for the almost cliché mechanic’s calendars they’d posed for in the first place. And lots of guys eager to pose for photos with ‘em, arm firmly in place around their barely clad waists.
