We love protective films and skins, and the toughest we have found are from Wrapsol which fit most laptops, phones, tablets, and more. Protection that is almost invisible, but with more resiliency and grip then most "skins" are some of the features that Wrapsol touts. How does it work in real life? Read on for our Mac Edition Radio Review!

When we attended the MacWorld 2000 Conference in New York one of the products that folks were buzzing about were at a booth that featured (the late lamented) Monsoon Planar speakers that were demonstrating a small translucent blue box called the SRS WOW Thing Box. SRS began in 1985 as a creation of Hughes Aircraft and stood for Sound Retrieval System, and since then it has become the heart of many audio products, often even without your knowledge. To see how the latest version of the technology measured up we looked at the latest version of the SRS iWOW™Premium plug-in for iTunes and the SRS iWOW 3D™ Audio Adaptor for any Apple device that has a dock. The SRS iWOW™Premium plug-in for iTunes and the iWOW 3D™ Audio Adaptor are Mac Edition Radio Audio Picks!

We love tablets, but when you must compose a long email or create a text-heavy document, a screen keyboard isn't always the best solution. A Bluetooth keyboard is often the way to go, and although they can be fragile and must be protected, they allow the user to type efficiently and comfortably. Consider the Logitech Keyboard Case for Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Apple iPad, a keyboard case that has quickly become one of our favorite products. Well made and practical, we think it‚Äôs a solid choice. Read the full review!

We pride ourselves on being good listeners, maybe not always to each other, but definitely to great music! In what seems like an avalanche of new items promising ever better audio, cool features, neat colors or bling, it's rare to encounter a product that changes the way we actually listen to music. We tried the dBLogic EP-100V Earphones and found the idea interesting: earphones that automatically limit the sound volume to protect the user's hearing. In this review we take a look at their new earphones and their approach to providing good sound while protecting your hearing. The dBLogic EP-100V Earphones are a Mac Edition Radio Holiday Pick!

For almost 20 years, Roxio's Toast has been the leading tool for manipulating optical media on the Mac OS. Roxio Toast Version 11 carries on this position and adds some useful upgrades and a substantially improved interface. While many folks seem to feel that there is no longer a place for optical media in their workflow, write-once media has many advantages including immunity to a hard drive crash, electrical surge, data corruption, or OS and interface changes. How well does Roxio Toast 11 handle this changing landscape? Hint, Roxio Toast 11 is a Mac Edition Radio Holiday Pick!
