Product Review: Jabra Cruiser Bluetooth Car Kit
A few weeks ago, my Motorola T505 died on me. While it did serve me well, it was a bit of a frustrating device for a few reasons, the main one being I couldn’t choose which FM channel I wanted to transmit too. Because of that I knew it was time to find a new Bluetooth FM transmitter, one that…

Droid Accessories
To continue my love affair with the Droid, today I’m writing about the Droid accessories I use the most. I created an Amazon Listmaina List of my favorite accessories, and I will likely continue to add to them as I use more. Here are the five I use the most.
