Proporta “Crosses the Pond” with Help from Skooba
I’ve been a fan of Proporta’s mobile tech accessories for quite some time now, and reviewed several of their products on this site. So I’m very glad to see that they’ve teamed up with Skooba in order to give their excellent products a larger audience in the US. Many Proporta products are now available on Skooba’s web site, and future plans will bring an expanded retail presence as well.
If you’d like to get a more detailed look at some of the product offerings, just type “Proporta” into the search box to the left in order to find all of my past reviews. If you’re ready to buy, visit the Skooba Design online store to see what’s available.

Catching Up
I’ve posted several new smartphone reviews over at Brighthand recently:
Samsung Memoir—a cameraphone that truly deserves that designation
Touch Diamond2—an incredibly functional and stylish device
Samsung Jack—of all trades, but the master of none.

Amazon Updates iPhone Kindle App
It almost feels as though they heard my specific complaints; the new version allows you to change the color setup to a black background with white text (my favorite) or a sepia background with olive green/gray type. You can also change pages with a tap instead of a swipe, which is a lot more convenient, especially if you tend to read on your device one-handed.
I’m sure that Amazon will come up with some clever new features in the future, but right now the Kindle app for the iPhone/iPod Touch works exactly the way I like. That doesn’t happen too often, so I’m enjoying it immensely and catching up on all my reading.

Just picked up my Nintendo DSi…
And it’s charging now! Give me a couple of days and I’ll write an in-depth review of the system. The Nintendo DSi has been getting a lot of press coverage, but as usual, I always have questions that those reports don’t answer.
I’ll answer one of them for you now—the DSi uses yet another proprietary charger connector. sigh In all other respects though, my initial impression of the DSi is positive—this is one slick little device, and I can’t wait to try it out.
If you’re on the fence about whether or not you want to purchase a Nintendo DSi, or upgrade from your DS (phat or Lite) you won’t want to miss it. Stay tuned!
