In this CNN “Tech Time” interview, I chat about the “summer of the smartphone,” as well as other trendy tech including sleek tablets, stylish headphones and other accessories. Have you bought any of these?

What’s the future of the iPad and 3DTV? What tech does a guy like Mike Pratt use on a daily basis? How will Best Buy stay a relevant player in the software space at a time when more consumers are acquiring it all digitally? Find out these answers, and more, in this exclusive Q&A.

In this Cineplex “Gear Guide” movie theatre spot, I share a few of my favourite high-tech accessories, including a Bluetooth wristband, iPad cases, USB pendants and decorative skins for laptops and smartphones.

Interested in the Apple iPad for yourself or someone else? Here I’ll walk you through a number of its cool features, including support for e-books, video, music, maps, games, comics, virtual instruments, email, web browsing, and more.

As I wrote in my Sympatico review of the iPad, I’ve gushed about its gorgeous 9.7-inch touchscreen display, exceptional handling of media and support for more than 200,000 apps available at the App Store (including ones you already own). But how does it fare compared to a laptop when it comes to notetaking and other tasks for traveling journalists or mobile students?

Digital devices take their place beside traditional medical equipment.
