Belkin Mini Surge Protector with USB Charger
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, USB, Design, PC / Laptop
The new Belkin Mini Surge Protector with USB Charger seems to be all the rage across the Internets over the past couple of days. After checking it out, we think it’s with good reason. After traveling to events like CES and SXSW, we know how much power outlets and USB chargers are a commodity. Belkin solves a bit of that here by providing a surge protector that offers three power ports alongside two USB charging ports. Very clever, as we know that we have been left charging devices - that support USB charging - using the AC adaptor. Good job there. It also frees up the USB ports on your laptop when you are on the go, which we know is particularly important if you are toting around a MacBook Air.
You can pick one of these up for $25 from Belkin’s product store.

Belkin Unveils Air Covering
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Accessories, Apple, PC / Laptop
The first of the MacBook Air accessories are already upon us. Belkin has come out with several covers. This one is the Expression Sleeve with shoulder strap, and others include the Vertical, the Slim-Fit, the Leather/Neoprene, the Neoprene, and the Slim-Fit with band. All of the cases are priced from $29.99 to $49.99 and come with lifetime warranties. The Neoprenes will be out in March with the others to follow in May. While there is nothing particularly unique about the cases, if you need to be official, this certainly beats your old MacBook cover.

CES 2008 Video: Belkin’s new KVM, Rockstar, and more
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, Accessories, Apple, CES, CES 2008, Features, Home Entertainment, Household, Misc. Tech, Music, Peripherals, Podcasts, Portable Audio / Video, Videocasts
At Pepcom’s Digital Experience, we had a chance to interview Belkin and get an up close and personal look at all the new peripherals they introduced at CES this year. Take a look at the video to see their 4-way, USB- and audio-enabled KVM switch, available this summer for $169. Additionally, they demoed an intelligent surge protector with six individually controlled outlets and two always-on outlets. Add to this a wireless on/off switch to activate or kill the six outlets and you have a nifty device to help kill the phantom power drain that’s so prevalent in today’s chargers and adapters when they’re not in use.
We also check out a few cool iPhone and iPod peripherals and the Rockstar—a five way minijack (headphone) splitter, available for $39.95 this summer.
And finally, we take a quick look at the N52te gamer “WASD replacement” pad. With a bunch of programmable macro options, an integrated scroll wheel and just enough buttons to get things done in TF2, it’s going on sale this month for $69.99 with a first look in the video.

Bleeding Edge TV 135: Belkin Shows Off The TuneStudio for iPod
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, Accessories, Apple, CES, CES 2007, Features, Music, PC / Laptop, Peripherals, Portable Audio / Video, Videocasts
Belkin has just released details on their TuneStudio for iPod. This thing is fairly amazing. It’s a portable mixer that records directly to an iPod, and connects to a computer as well. If you are a DJ, or even a podcaster, this thing is awesome. Imagine having four inputs all recording directly into your iPod for immediate playback - even better, throw in a computer, and that gives you an extra output to work with, and it’s program independent. It works with both Macs and PCs, and will run for $179 when it launches in Summer 2007.

Unboxing Live 008: Belkin N1 Wireless Router & N1 Wireless Notebook Card
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Features, Networking, PC, Videocasts
We show off the Belkin N1 MIMO Wireless Router in this episode of Unboxing. We were thoroughly impressed with the way they box their product and have everything nice and labled. Completely appropriate, even for novices. Come to think of it, more manufacturers should focus a bit more effort into the way they package their products, and think about the experience the consumer will have when unboxing their purchase. It makes a big difference when you look at how nicely Belkin has packaged their N1 equipment. We also show off the N1 Wireless Notebook card as well.
