Yes, I am going to CES 2012 for GizmoFusion.com and TrustedNerd.com

I know it’s been an extremely long time since I have updated this blog, just been working on getting TrustedNerd.com updated (that will happen soon don’t worry), and also working non-stop with GizmoFusion.com.

So now, I am going once again to CES to experience everything tech and report back. As always, check out GizmoFusion.com for CES news, as well as TrustedNerd.com (If I can get the site up with the new design and backend) for CES News.

If anyone wants to show me their product at CES 2012, or set up a meeting or interview, email me at jonathan [at] gizmofusion.com

Review: Universal Network Cable

We all were in this at one time. You are in a customer’s house, and they have a different type of network connection, either rolled, crossover, or something else. You are hunting through your bag for a converter, and notice, you don’t have one! Not anymore, Geoffrey Bilder has invented a Universal Network Cable that has all of these different standards, built into one neat device. You just spin around the dial, and bingo, there is your converter. How cool is that! The Universal Network Cable supports rolled, crossover, straight-through, loopback, and T1. Now, how much is this, and where can I buy it? Well, it’s not that expensive really, and it’s not going to fall apart like imitations purchased off eBay. Nope, this is available now at Staples and ThinkGeek.com for currently $29.99 at ThinkGeek and for $27.99 at Staples.ca

Overall, genius idea Geoffrey, and I am without any hesitation going to give your product a 5/5!

WELL DONE!

Review: Novero TheTalkyOne

Novero is known for really beautifully designed products, following the mentality of Apple. TheTalkyOne is a beautifully and minimally designed BlueTooth speakerphone that lets you accept calls and make calls while driving.

The text to speech functionality allows it to read out text messages, and also will announce the names of your callers, if supported. The TalkyOne provides such features as noise reduction, and echo cancellation, as well as DSP. Battery life is approximately 180 hours of standby time, and 15 hours of continuous talk time.

TheTalkyOne comes with an attachment, supported by velcro, if you want to attach it to your car’s dash, as well as a clip for attaching to your sun visor.

Pairing is extremely easy. Entering a single code, and boom, your able to use the device to answer and receive calls. I would definitely recommend TheTalkyOne who anyone who wants some style in their life, and a really high-end Bluetooth speakerphone.
