Zagg Custom Skin

Posted on 18. Jan, 2010 by Alli Flowers.

When I first got my iPhone back in April of ‘09, I couldn’t decide whether or not to put a screen protector on or not. I eventually decided to try it, and when someone gave me a Zagg screen protector, I eagerly installed it. I’d used Zagg skins for years on my Palm Treos and [...]

Proporta Shine

Proporta has a great lineup of accessories. Some of them are really unique, so when they offered to send me the new Shine case to review, I jumped at the chance.
I don’t particularly care for leather cases. The sides typically come up impeding the swiping motion, necessary to move from page to page when using [...]

Losing the love and starting a new “affair”

Posted on 21. Dec, 2009 by Alli Flowers.

Diana McDonough was once a staunch Palm user, but has started flirting with many other hand-held operating systems and devices. Read what she has to say!

Well, I’ve had my Palm Pre for five months now.  After that amount of time, here’s how I feel about the device.
