Summertime is nearly upon us, and for most folks that means travel. Whether you're packing up the minivan for a cross-country road trip or hopping a flight to visit far-flung family, you'll want to throw a few key tech tools into your bag.
MyCharge Peak 6000
The last thing you need during a trip is for your phone or tablet to run out of juice. The MyCharge Peak 6000 is a portable power supply with built-in connectors for the most common gear—and a USB port for the less-common stuff.
The half-pound Peak packs enough mobile power to charge not only small devices like phones and Bluetooth headsets, but also larger tablets like the iPad. I've been using one for months, and it has quickly become my most indispensable travel accessory. Read
my original review if you want to learn more.
The Peak 6000 lists for $99.99, but
AT&T currently has it on sale for $69 shipped.

Money Saving Tips
It's that time of year again: tax time. For me that means
another sad realization that I'm hopelessly, endlessly
disorganized. Help me, technology, help me!
Maybe 2013 will be different. Actually, I'm sure it will be if
I take advantage of this deal: For a limited time, B&H Photo
has the
NeatReceipts mobile scanner for $149.99
shipped. This is the same model that normally sells for
$179.99, and until very recently was priced at $199.99.
This USB-powered, travel-friendly device makes short work of
scanning, storing, and organizing receipts.

Stuff We Like
So you tweet, right? I mean, who doesn't tweet these days? But isn't it sometimes just annoying that when you go to read your friends' tweets that you have to, like, actually read them and stuff? I mean, it's so tedious! It would be so great if you could just have a friend sitting beside you, reading the tweets to you, so that you could get on to more important tasks in your life.

It's that time of year! The holiday lights are up, the snow is falling (here in Michigan, anyway), and gift shopping season is officially under way.
