Kensington Laptop Accessories

Now I'm ready to travel.

Kensington

I fly for business at least every three weeks and my laptop bag has certainly begun to look like hell. My "mobile office" is an embarrassment to say the least!

First, I picked up a Kensington Contour Roller which essentially looks like a briefcase which is bent in the middle. That description might be terrible, but it's accurate. It's bent in an ergonomic way, and has a bent handle that pops up which they say makes it quite easy to pull around town. This is true.

Basically, the Contour Roller is a neurotic traveler's dream.

Epson PictureMate Personal Photo Printer

A cute little printer than can fit right in your hotel room.

The concept of a photoprinter is interesting and has some major advantages and some disadvantages. The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, but I'll cover both.

First, the advantageous. It's relatively portable and can read memory cards. This is a dream come true for any traveler as you can run this in your hotel room and just pop in the memory card. It weights only a pound and has a cute little handle.

Also, and most important, the quality of the photos is outstanding. The quality is 5760 x 1440, and the pictures come out as good as I've seen in a photolab.

Kensington Travel Products

Travel is made a little bit easier.

For the discerning laptop on the go, Kensington made a few new devices just to make life a little bit easier.

To start the ball rolling, where will you plug in? In the past I've used a little bag with small nobules that I had to attach to the plug here and there. Now this little Kensington adapter basically pops out like a switchblade, so it's all compact and attached. Just flip a button and out comes the appropriate plug you need. It is easily the simplest and most efficient adapter we've yet seen.

Going along that theme, they have the 4-in-1 Ethernet Cable.

Dymo LabelWriter 330 Turbo

Who knew that printing labels could be so addictive?

While my fiance' Michael seems to feel that labeling everything is a bit over compulsive and "anal", it makes me happy. The sense of organization is slightly akin to the happiness I feel when I eat chocolate or get flowers. Okay, not that happy, but there is a distinct sense of clean.

I am the type that loves to label. I label food that I froze. I label boxes in the closet. I label drawers.

The Rebit

Don't lose your photos or files to a crash or virus. Back up your whole computer with an amazingly simple device.

Rebit

Your computer is likely loaded with photos, special emails, your favorite music and other precious information. It would be a real tragedy if a virus struck or if your computer crashed, losing all that data, which are in fact priceless memories. And unless you are computer-savvy enough to do a backup on a regular basis, your computer is at risk of losing everything on it forever.

Battery Power

Now your laptop can really last on an airplane!

The weakest link of any laptop is the reason for which it was purchased: portability. Without a long lasting battery, your big-shot do-it-all super-duper little 'mine-is-better-than-yours,' can't do anything at all. Many of the original battery styles just can't hack it with the big boys and in the field is not where you want to break down. Yeah, that's right! Some once in a lifetime million-dollar deal is blown because you can't set up an office in a customer's remote location. Sure, you can unplug his office equipment for yours but you're sure to lose clients when their computer crashes.

I.R.I.S. Business Card Reader II and I.R.I.S. Pen

Every way you needed to scan something and then some!

I.R.I.S. has come into the scanning market with two different products that they hope will help your business.

The first device is the I.R.I.S. Business Card Reader II, which as the name implies, scans your business cards. It took a few minutes to install, but after that it's pretty simple. You load the software, press a button and scan away. The recognition was perfect for 'standard' cards, but anything elaborate isn't as good. One card, which was multicolored and quite fancy, was completely lost.
