It’s almost unsettling how many choices you have when deciding what kind of iPhone case you’d like to buy. Do you get one that charges your phone, or looks cool? Is it a wallet? Or a steering wheel? The BookBook fits into the wallet category.
After the futile Tango Pro review, I’m ready for all kinds of unexpected failures in attempting to fit this over-sized hard-drive behemoth into a case designed for regular 2.5″ SATA drives. OWC was theoretically ready for this situation with their OWC Mercury On-The-Go enclosure. It is available in a variety of port configurations, but I [...]

While the post office only dropped this off today, I’ve been frequenting my local bookstore to read this book several times over the past week. To be honest, I haven’t yet finished the book’s meaty 971 [...]
