The Slip Case by Waterfield Designs is a very simple concept. It is essentially a padded sleeve to protect your iPad on the go. It is nothing more and nothing less. It is available in six colors and costs $29.

Review – Macally MSuit iPad Case
When you look at cases for the iPad, iPhone, or iPod one of the most popular case materials is silicone. It is great for protecting your device. The MSuit is a great silicone case by Macally that only costs $19.99. It is only available in black, so if you want a different color this one is not for you.

What’s an App?
ArtStudio – Review
I have tried a bunch of art apps for the iPod Touch/iPhone. I have even reviewed quite a few. Most recently, I was given the opportunity to try out a new kid on the block called ArtStudio. After playing with ArtStudio (and I mean playing, because it is fun) for many days I have to say this is the best drawing/painting app I have tried for my iPod Touch. It is FANTASTIC! and probably the closest thing to Painter or ArtRage for the Mac desktop.
Interview with Corliss Blakely
I recently reviewed ArtStudio for MyMac. ArtSTudio is a fantastic painting program for your iPhone and iPod Touch. While reviewing the app I discovered Corliss Blakely- a wonderful painter who paints on the iPhone with ArtStudio (among other apps). I contacted her and she agreed to answer a few questions about painting on the iPhone.
ArtRage 3 – Review
In November of 2005 I first wrote about ArtRage. Since that time I have reviewed ArtRage 2 and ArtRage Deluxe for MyMac and each new version has made ArtRage better and better. It has also become a standard in my art classroom on my iMacs and my students love it. Well, I am thrilled to be writing a review of the newly released ArtRage 3. Just like previous updates, it keeps on improving.

The idox Traveler Series is a very unique product. Essentially it is a stand for your iPod that doubles as a case. It is available for the iPod Touch, 4g and 5g Nanos, and the 3G and 3GS iPhones
Photoshop Elements 8
Review
If you want Photoshop but can’t afford the full blown CS Photoshop you definitely want to look into Photoshop Elements. For the average user it is plenty of Photoshop and more for a lot less money.
Postbox
Review
If you are like me you have more than one email account. I have several. I use Apple’s Mail for my main/personal account and Mozilla Thunderbird for my other accounts. For the most part I have been happy with Thunderbird, but it has become very slow and clunky- especially when replying. I am always on the lookout for a new email program, so when the opportunity arose to test Postbox, I took it.

Do you find yourself fumbling around while you drive to change what is playing on your iPod or iPhone? Do you need a holder for your iPhone while using GPS in the car? Are you like me and want a solution for your toddler to be able to watch videos on your iPod in the car? If you answered yes to any of these questions, Macally’s mCup is for you.

There are many options out there is you want an extra, or backup, battery for your iPod. Dexim’s Bluepack S3 is one of these options.
Pagehand – Review
I have never been a Microsoft Word user. In fact, ever since I have owned a Mac I have used Appleworks/Clarisworks or Pages. However, I recently discovered a new kid on the block called “Pagehand.†In fact my last few articles here at MyMac (including this one) have been type in Pagehand.
Macspiration 115 – Verizon FIOS working with EyeTV Hybrid
I recently made the switch from Comcast to Verizon FIOS and I love it. However, one of the big issues I had after the switch was getting EyeTV and my EyeTV Hybrid working correctly. After searching the internet and the Elgato forums, I found a solution.
Macally’s Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse – Review
I have been looking for a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard for a while without success. The problem? Every Bluetooth mouse I find is notebook size and every keyboard is either not Mac compatible, has too many bells and whistles and is enormous, or it is missing the number pad (Apple). Macally has solved all of this with the BTMouse2 and the BTKey keyboard.
PowerDuo Reserve – Review
When it comes to iPod accessories one of the the first companies that comes to mind is Griffin Technology. In fact, the first car charger I bought was their PowerJolt for my iPod Mini. I just had to retire it because the firewire charger won’t work with my iPod Touch.
BurnAgain FS – Review
Bento App – Review
The only database program I have ever used in the past has been the one in Appleworks. When I was presented the opportunity to try out Bento for the iPhone/iPod Touch it was perfect timing. I was looking for a way to organize some data, and Bento looked like it was a good solution. Was it? Read on.
Print and Share – App Review
Have you ever been on your iPhone or iPod Touch and found yourself having to print a website or an email? If you are like me you wait until you’re at the computer to do it or you forget before you get to the computer. Well, with Print & Share installed on your device this problem is a thing of the past.
