Review: bem wireless Mobile Speaker
As a long-time Apple user, I’m used to seeing hardware get progressively smaller, thinner, and lighter, and for the most part, as with phones and laptops, this “smaller is better” attitude has largely been successful. Even camera lenses have been able to produce above-decent images at less than 1/8th the size of traditional camera lenses. However one area where... Read More

If only people THIS attractive would be the ones using these…
To be honest, given how pioneering the adult industry is in adopting the latest technologies, I am surprised it took 6 years for someone to invent this. Behold Fundawear, the remotely controlled, vibrating underwear from the geniuses at Durex (the condom people). Unfortunately, if watching HBO’s horribly disappointing Real Sex series has taught me anything, it’s that... Read More
Enter to WIN: Hercules Laptop Backpack from EC-BC
*****THANK YOU WE HAVE OUR WINNER, THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED! CONGRATS TO FAITHFUL MACENSTEIN READER BOB!****** For months I have been the subject of ridicule by my co-workers, family and, yes, even strangers, who have all deemed my current laptop backpack “girly”.

Review: iKit NuCharge external battery for iPhone 5
Ever since losing our power for 7 days during Hurricane Sandy, I’ve grown rather paranoid about the idea of not being able to use my iPhone for more than 6 minutes. Unfortunately until recently the selection of external batteries for the iPhone 5 was pretty anemic. But in recent months a number of companies have stepped up to the plate, including a new face on the scene named... Read More
Posted without comment – iPotty iPad toilet
OK, screw that, I must comment. First of all, I want the adult version of this. Secondly, as a parent, I truly think this would actually have made potty training our kids WAY easier. Of course, as a DAD, potty training was super easy, as my wife did it for us. But like many seemingly bizarre iPad/iPhone accessories on Amazon, whether or not they might legitimately work, the REAL... Read More
How To: Get your mouse’s right-click back in OS X 10.7.5
Let’s file this tip under the “things that may only help one other person in the world” category, like my “HOW TO FIX “THE DISC CAN’T BE BURNED, BECAUSE THE DEVICE FAILED TO CALIBRATE THE LASER POWER LEVEL FOR THIS MEDIA” ERROR” article (which actually appears to have helped quite a few of you). Today’s problem is as follows: After doing... Read More
New iWatch video showcases bleak future after Zombie Apocalypse
Well, this has got to be the best fake Apple product concept video/ post-apocalyptic survival movie I’ve ever seen. Check out this amazing video made by faithful Macenstein reader Zach King. Set in the year 2019, it tells the story of a beautiful 16-year old girl, alone in a world ravaged by some unknown plague, in which she, her trusty iWatch, and a copy of Tangled, are apparently...

Review: X-Doria’s Dash Folio for iPad mini
I’ve been an iPad user since day 1, and an iPad mini owner since… maybe day 57 or so…. (not as impressive, I know). But in all my days of tablet use, I have yet to find a portfolio-style case that I enjoyed using. Until now. (Queue harp music). Actually, X-Doria’s Dash Folio for iPad mini ($39.99) is probably not all that different or revolutionary as far as... Read More
