Concerti, Studio Stand, PowerDuo, and Cinema Seat iPad Accessories – Review
The Moshi Concerti is one of the nicest of the accessories. It’s a stylish iPad case that is made from a hybrid silicone/microfiber fabric, but it looks and feels like suede. I handed it to my wife as she was about to leave on a two week trip. She found it functional in most respects but with limitations.

Rusty Bumpers
MyMac Podcast #336
Gaz and Guy get it all together for this show, their first since the Macworld Expo. Skype hates Gaz and GarageBand hates Guy so it was a real roller coaster affair. A bit about Sony, a bit about the ViPhone, and more about the Daily, but this show’s highlights are the Expo and Bumpers. Don’t worry, it will all make sense by the end (or will it?)

LightWake – App Review
LightWake is an alarm clock for the iPad that gently wakes you up with soothing music and gradual light, like a sunrise. The sunrise duration can be set anywhere from 10 minutes to 60 minutes, during which time the screen gets brighter and the accompanying music increases in volume. In theory: a great idea. But not for me.

The Daily Discussion
TechFan #18
Tim and David take a look at the NEW publication, The Daily. Is the subscription magazine on iPad finally done right, or is it more of the same? Macworld Expo 2011 has come and gone, and the guys have some ideas on how to make it better next year. Plus, Sony introduces the new PSP 2, or whatever it will be called, and Nintendo states that download games will be tied to devise, NOT to user accounts. Much fodder to chew on this week!

Understanding Adobe Photoshop CS5
Book Review
The book Understanding Adobe Photoshop CS5 is described by the author as a book for people who are beginner Photoshop CS5 users, and need a global understanding of the software. As written in the introduction, many Photoshop books are geared towards really basic Photoshop introduction, specific features (such as layers or working with image modes), or new features only. This book is billed as a learning tool for beginners, but it will get you to almost every aspect you need to understand for using Photoshop CS5.
