Kensington PowerLift Back-up Battery, Dock and Stand – Review
The black and chrome battery charger is lightweight and compact, and easily slips into a pocket, purse, or camera bag. The unit measures 2.5″ x 2.3″ x 0.7″ and weighs 1.75 ounces. The device has a built-in USB cable that neatly tucks into the rear of the charger and has a power check button to indicate battery status. The dock connector is compatible with all recent generations of the iPod and iPhone. I also found that it charged my iPad 2 in a acceptable amount of time although the specifications do not mention the iPad. That was a pleasant surprise.

Elisa Pacelli
MyMac Podcast 347
Elisa agrees (silly girl!) to come on and try again to record a podcast with not one, but TWO GMen. Guy apologizes (again) for all the screw ups with the audio and as it turns out it WAS entirely his fault to absolutely no one’s surprise. We get some great Twitter and email feedback from JollyJap and Klaus from Germany leaves an audio comment from our Skype number about the Google defamation lawsuit in Italy. Steve McShane records a review for the Samson Go Mic, and we talk about updates, and quarterly’s, and location privacy (oh MY!)

Composition – From Snapshots to Great Shots – Book Review
This is an odd “how to” book that purports to teach the amateur photographer the skill of arranging shapes and elements in a scene to create better pictures. The book is a collection of essays by wildlife photographer Laurie Excell and four other professional photographers. Based on the mission described in the introduction and the level of information in subsequent chapters, the book is clearly aimed at the amateur or hobbyist. What makes it odd is that it seems to quickly lose sight of its intended audience.

RIP FLIP – TechFan Podcast #27
Tim and David delve into Amazon’s Android App store and disagree, then a short rant on the TSA performing pat downs on children. Also, Cisco has killed off the Flip, and Tim and David spend just a few moments on ideas that no one had at Cisco to rescue the produce, apparently. Finally, Nintendo is rumored to be releasing a new home console system very soon, so the topic turns to the Wii and what Nintendo should have in the next system.
