Read the news with NOOZ reading glasses


So, it’s official I am now my grandpa. How is that you may ask? Well, I will tell you, I need to carry reading glasses everywhere I go. The problem for me is that my options for carrying my readers get kind of limited with the size of most reading glasses. I do have some foldable ones that fit in my pocket but those can be a little bulky and I tend to forget them. I have ones that I can wear around my neck but hey I don’t want to look geeky everywhere I go. Enter NOOZ reading glasses from NOOZ optics. 

NOOZ glasses come in round and oval shapes and clip onto your nose.  A small case is included with the glasses that you can attach to your keychain or any other object you desire. The NOOZ has scratch proof Polycarbonate lenses and comes in strengths ranging from +1 to +3 in +.5 increments and are available in several colors. At a cost of $19.95 from the NOOZ website, you can take the grandpa and grandma out of your readers.

AirSelfie is a pocket-sized drone designed to take your picture from the air


Taking a selfie by holding your phone at arm’s length is usually fine if you’re only taking a snap of yourself or at most another person. But when you try to squeeze more people into the frame or want to see the background too, a camera at the end of your arm just won’t cut it. Neither will a 3-foot long selfie stick. Is there a better alternative? The folds at AirSelfie think so.

AirSelfie is a small smartphone-sized drone whose sole purpose is to take pictures of you as quickly and easily as possible.

This drone is made of lightweight anodized aluminum and features a flat design for easy launching and landing and a 5-megapixel camera with 4GB of storage for images.

It’s powered by a rechargeable battery that provides 3 minutes of flight time and it communicates with your phone via 2.4Ghz WiFi.

AirSelfi comes with a smartphone charging case that provides up to 20 charges in the field.

The AirSelfie drone will be shipping in July and is currently available for pre-order on airselfiecamera.com with a limited time special discount of $279.13 for the drone without the charging case and on Amazon for $329.00 with the charging case and free shipping.

The fine folks at AirSelfie will be sending me a drone to review, so stay tuned for some Gadgeteer selfies very soon!

You’ll flip over the new Flipside 4 minimalist wallet


When it comes to cool minimalists wallets, the guys at Flipside have been on the scene for over 8 years. I dug up my first news post about their original Flipside wallet from January 2009. Every couple of years they update their wallet to make it even better and I’m happy to say that the Flipside 4 is their latest version.

The Flipside 4 comes in 5 colors and retains the same basic design of the previous versions of their flip-open wallets that hold cards, cash, and more.

The few Flipside 4 wallet features extensive new structural reinforcements and enhancements that improve durability, prevent cards from being bent or cracked and provide scratch resistance to the exterior of the wallet.

The Flipside 4 also has a new button design that has been updated to make it easier to operate in any situation.

Current Flipside owners will be happy to learn that the new wallet is backwards compatible with all existing attachments like the FlipsideKick, Flipside Stow, Flipside 3X all purpose clip, and the Flipside 2X T-clip.

You can buy the Flipside 4 now for $39.95. Head over to www.flipsidewallet.com for more info.
