ZaggKeys Flex Tablet Keyboard
The ZaggKeys FLEX is a versatile standalone Bluetooth-enabled keyboard accessory for smartphones and tablet computers. This keyboard is so versatile because it allows me to use it with all my essentials: my iPhone, iPad, and Blackberry Playbook. It’s adaptable and portable, and it’s impressive how long a full charge lasts! I’ve had mine almost 6 weeks, and hasn’t been recharged yet.

Don’t you just hate it when you’re out and as soon as you need to make a call, your cell phone is either at the 2% mark or it’s dead? Enter the Powerbag. Equipped with a complete charging system (battery, Apple connector, Micro- and Mini-USB connectors and an on-board USB port), Powerbag is ready to charge up to 4 devices at once whenever, wherever. From laptops to smartphones, Powerbag made sure I was ready, and the smart design is pretty easy on the eyes too! Backpacks from $139.99-$179.99 at mypowerbag.com

House of Marley Soul Rebel Headphones
Like the legendary Bob Marley, these headphones definitely make a statement. From superb sound quality to using environmentally friendly materials, the House of Marley earbuds and headphones show what it means to be timeless. I love how soft and comfortable the headphones are, while at the same time being very effective at canceling outside noise.

Samsung Focus Flash Windows Phone
Small, slim, and sleek! The Samsung Focus™ Flash combines slim, elegant design with powerful 4G performance. I was pleasantly surprised at the capabilities of this phone. From the ease of grouping contacts, the number of apps, to the social media readiness of Facebook/Twitter/Linked In, this phone had all the basics without having to download the necessities. The best feature of the phone? Hands down, the Microsoft Office installation allows me to blog on the go! The Samsung Focus Flash is $49.99 with an AT&T contract.
