Apple TV was recognized with five nominations for the 86th Annual Peabody Awards, with category nods for “Pluribus,” “Come See Me in the Good Light,” “Mr. Scorsese,” “Vietnam: The War That Changed America” and “Shape Island.” The Peabody Awards honor excellence...
I remain skeptical that Apple will release a foldable iPhone, but a Counterpoint Research survey says that 28% of U.S. smartphone users are “highly likely” to choose a foldable device as their next purchase. The research group says that the installed base of foldable...
If you want to take pictures and make videos without your iPhone handy, you can do it with the Wristcam for Apple Watch (assuming, of course, you have an Apple Watch). However, this must be something you REALLY want to do as the Wristcam costs US$299 and has some...
The US$49.99 Scosche BoomCan MS is a great idea in concept, but a bust in realization. The idea is a clever one: a small speaker that attaches to a MagSafe-equipped iPhone (iPhone 12 and later). Apple says that MagSafe “improves wireless charging for a better, more...
Want more storage for your iPad? I thought Seagate (http://www.seagate.com) had the answer with its GoFlex Satellite mobile wireless storage. I was wrong, and I generally love Seagate’s products.
The Satellite is a battery-powered, 500GB, US$199.99 external hard drive that wirelessly extends the storage capacity of any Wi-Fi enabled mobile device using 802.11 b/g/n and a rechargeable battery.

If you want to add better grammar checking features to Pages, try Grammarian PRO2 X from Linguisoft (http://www.linguisoft.com). It checks grammar and spelling errors interactively (as-you-type) or batch checking (all-at-once).
For folks with a particular TV viewing need (more on that in a bit), Elgato’s (http://www.elgato.com) HDHomeRun, a dual-tuner device that’s compatible with Macs and PCs, hits a home run. With it, you can view a show on one computer, and a second show on a different one. Especially sweet: you can also record shows in 1080i HD resolution.
