For the next five days, I thought I’d do something different and post a little review for the gadgets that have truly become part of my daily routine. These little doodads and gizmos, all from Thinkgeek.com, are truly valuable to me, and I’m hoping that they might be to you too. So, here’s a little preview of what I’ll be reviewing:
- Gadget Holster
- USB Memory Watch
- PAN TEC Hat
- Utili-Key
- Micro Remote
- Honorable Mention - COG Tags
The COG Tags, I’ll talk about now. I have to admit, I’ve never played Gears of War, a game in which the lead character wears dog tags that resemble these. I have; however, gone by the online name Faceless Cog for over ten years now, so anything “cog” related
gets my attention. I had actually been looking at making my own “cog” tags, but when I saw that Thinkgeek had them for about ten bucks, I jumped on them. They are nice and heavy, solid in construction. They don’t feel cheap at all, though I wish there was an option to get them personalized instead of the default (game related) text that comes on them. (Hey, a man can dream.) I don’t plan on rating these. If you like the game, or if you’re just a cog-head like myself, then they’re worth the ten bucks. Otherwise, save your money for some of the five reviews to come.
(EDIT: For reference sake, and full disclosure, I am NOT being paid or compensated in any way to do this series of gadget reviews. I just really like Thinkgeek, and the products they have.)
