Okay, so you have the iPad – now what? Apple made this product that can be so more than a tool to check email with, so what do you want to do with it? Maybe you have someone on your shopping list that loves their iPad and you would like to get them something to go with it. Fear not, I am here to help. Here are a few recommended geeky gadgets. Clicking the included links will take you to sites for more information and purchase. Most products are also available at Apple Stores and Amazon.


For the music lover – foxLv2 Bluetooth

The foxLv2 is a pocket-sized speaker that audio purists will love. It has Bluetooth connectivity and a lithium-ion battery so you can bring the highly portable foxLv2 hi-fi audio speaker wherever you bring your iPad or other device: on the road, at work for presentations, to play music at parties, watch movies in the living room, tailgate at football games, and much more. It is incredibly small at 5.6” wide x 2.2” high x 1.4” deep, and the foxLv2 features a full range of audio output from 80Hz – 20kHz with real bass for amazingly good music in a tiny package that fits with your portable lifestyle.


For the foodie – the iGrill

The iGrill is a Bluetooth cooking thermometer that reads temperatures ranging from 40F (0C) to 400F (204C)). It comes with two probes, which lets you monitor two pieces of meat simultaneously. The free iGrill App advises what temperature you should be aiming for the different types of meats, letting you know approximately how much time is remaining before your food is ready.
