This weekend I showed the Belkin Ultimate Keyboard Case for iPads- $99.99/Black, $129.00/White- with laptop-like keyboard experience. Please check out details and other techie suggestions on my Global News Father’s Day Gift Guide.
On the Sunday Morning News I showed some quality and unique style smartphone cases from Ventev, a division of TESSCO Technologies for today’s newest smart phones. They are starting to show up in Canadian stores but you can get them online on popular sites like amazon.com and tigerdirect.ca.
-For minimalism, the Ultralight Color Click Air $20, Cobalt Blue or Aqua…thin non slip, for iPhone5,Galaxy S4 and HTC ONE.
-The Powercase 1500- $80- for the iPhone5 includes its own built in battery in a slim case giving you an additional six hours talk time.
-Smart, compact and minimalist Colour Click Pro for the BlackBerry Z10- $30- comes with thin adjustable belt clip. The phone’s case stays on when removed from the holster for constant protection when in use.
-For even more protection check out the ShockGuard for Galaxy S4 30, with an inside gel layer surrounded by hard plastic shell. I like the white gloss and grape gel model.

COMPACT SAMSUNG WIRLESS AUDIO PORTABLE SOUNDS AND LOOKS QUALITY
I showed a very impressive Bluetooth portable speaker on my Global Monday Morning News show. If you have a larger gift budget, look at the new Samsung DA-F60 Wireless Audio Portable Bluetooth 2.5 speaker- $299.
It features standard Bluetooth connectivity with any device but impresses even more when hooked up wirelessly with newer devices. NFC (near field communication) devices will automatically pair up with the speakers with one button touch while Samsung’s Soundshare will hook up speakers with similarly equipped newer Samsung TVs. The battery worked for more than eight hours and the kit includes a wall charger, microfibre case and flexible wrap around speaker case.
The sound? Very good for a battery operated speaker system that plays all day. The neat slide-out bass bottom is adjustable to match the best level for what music you play and where you play it. For more information go to: www.samsung.ca
