Targus Docking Station


Situation: you have a laptop/netbook and are forever plugging external devices in and out. Perhaps a hard drive, extra monitor, internet cable and so on.
Solution: a USB docking station or port replicator.
Better solution: a Targus ACP51AUZ USB 2.0 Docking Station with Video.
Result: Situation under control.
Seems simple enough but how does it work in reality?

Aegis NetDock 3


Just a few days ago we mentioned the announcement of the Aegis NetDock and already we're having a fantastic looking unit in gorgeous deep red hooked up to our computer!
That's pretty fast for a transpacific and continental shipment. Courtesy of Apricorn and ProLine Communications agency we're having a good look at what is probably the most essential accessory for any netbook and most tablet users: a portable hard drive combined with a DVD burner and a bunch of powered and unpowered USB ports.
Let's check out what's beyond the good looks.

Freedom Pro Keyboard




A couple of weeks ago we reviewed a low-end Bluetooth keyboard and this time we present the high end of wireless keyboarding: the Freedom Pro Bluetooth Keyboard – kindly shipped to us by WirelessGround.com.
Whereas the Brando unit was cheap and looked cheap, this keyboard oozes quality.
Typing comfort is much better too as this is just about the full size of my business notebook’s keyboard, yet only about twice the size of the Brando unit when folded and a bit thicker.
Expect full functionality from the Freedom Pro and you will not be disappointed.
What does it have, you ask?

Brando Slim BT Keyboard
There are times when even an onscreen keyboard on a somewhat larger device like the HD2 or even an iPad is a bit awkward to use and it certainly doesn’t give the same feel or speed of an external keyboard.
Enter the Bluetooth enabled keyboards of which we will review two in the coming weeks.
A normal sized but foldable one and the super small Brando Slim Bluetooth Keyboard.
Two advantages spring out straightaway for the Brando device: price and size.

mCube Mini
The Innergie mCube Mini is billed as "World's smallest auto/air adapter" for notebook, netbook and portable devices.  When the review unit came in, it certainly is the smallest charger this reviewer has seen.  I can't categorically agree with Innergie's claim but I dare say they are pretty close to the mark!

Powermat Mat
As a gadget reviewer and having a high level of gadgets in my daily repertoire, the amount of chargers I have to remember, tag and keep track of is staggering.  As a result I have been keeping an eye on wireless charging systems for a little while.  When Powermat announced their launch in April, Simms International was more than happy to send me a loaner to test drive.

The Powermat wireless charging system is billed as the solution to every household's problem with lost chargers and tangled wires.  Let's see just how well it does the job.

Vosonic GV6300
Occasionally something just a bit out of the left field will hit the DigitalReviews testbench.  Vosonic was not on my radar but when they approached us to give some love to the Vosonic GV6300, we naturally accepted the offer on behalf of our readers.  The Vosonic GV6300 is a vehicle safeguard device that provides continuous video recording when powered on, this is about the extent of my knowledge when the device first arrived.  So let's go in and see what it can do and how well it does it.
