It seems like ages ago when you’d mention the word “Tablet” and the last thing that would come to mind would be the iPad.  But it has only been a year or so since we were introduced to the electronic gadget referred to as the “tablet” and it seems every electronic gadgets manufacturer wants a piece of the pie.  The latest contender is Sony with their Sony S1 and Sony S2 Android powered tablets.

Sony hasn’t announced official prices for the S1 and S2 tablets yet, but some websites are estimating the S1 tablet to go for around $599 and the S2 tablet for $699.  The S1 tablet comes in the more familiar size and is shaped to look like a folded magazine; it features a 9.4” screen.  The S2 tablet comes with dual 5.5” 1024 x 480 screens that fold for easy storage and makes it a lot more convenient to carry in your coat pocket.

I personally prefer the light stubble look and I always use my Conair iStubble which I reviewed not long ago. But once in a while, a shaved look is also nice to have if you’re going on a first date, an interview, or an important meeting. But since I’ve gotten in the habit of not shaving, I know I will forget to shave.

This is where the Carzor Credit Card Razor & Mirror will come to the rescue. This nifty little gadget is a card, a mirror, and a razor all at the same time. This is the size of an actual credit or ATM card and will able to fit in your wallet. You are able to detach the blades and store them safely behind the mirror while it’s in your pocket so your money, wallet, and butt are safe from cuts. Unfortunately, no shaving cream is

I don’t own a MacBook or any Apple products but after seeing this beautiful case for the MacBook by Rainer Spehl, I’m almost ready to buy one.  Actually, a more practical thing would be to find a case that fits other laptops or wait for these guys to make one.

The wooden case is called the Noah Case and is handcrafted from solid oak to hold 13” to 17” MacBook laptops.  The case is lined with soft leather to protect your laptop and comes with brass hinges and a magnetic closing system.  It takes about 3 days to complete a case which consists of hand sanding and multiple stains.

I’ve always been interested in spending time in the great outdoors and one of my favorite parts of the outdoors is making campfires.  Most of us that go camping usually bring matches to start a fire, but what if the matches get wet?  You could try striking rocks against each other or rub sticks to start a fire, but that’s not as easy as it seems; if you’ve watched episodes of “Survivor” you’d know some of those guys can’t even start a fire with a flint.  A better option is to take the Sparxgear Fire Piston with you. You can easily start a fire with it and it’s waterproof.

I’ve never been on a Unicycle but I know for a fact that I would miserably fail and do a few face plants into the concrete while attempting it. Knowing how dangerous it would be for me, I never even bothered trying to get access to a standard unicycle.

But now that I know about a unicycle that requires minimal skills on my part, it would be pretty cool to test one out. The SBU V3 Self-Balancing Unicyle is perfect for those that lack coordination skills. The company which created this started with two guys working out of a garage and now they’ve got some pretty cool projects in the works.

It may appear to be a typical and inexpensive lighter from your local corner store but this bad boy packs an extra punch. The Discreet Pepper Spray Lighter has enough ‘sting’ to keep a douche bag or two at bay if they are unfortunate enough to be in the target area.

Although the effective range of this is probably nowhere near your standard pepper spray device, the lighter definitely has the compact factor on its side. The Discreet Pepper Spray Lighter can be yours for only $3.89. Now, it would be a real shame if you mix them up and accidentally light a smoke for some hot babe. Actually, it would be pretty amazing to see something like that unfold.

If you don’t know what it’s like to get pepper sprayed, consider yourself lucky. The guys in video below, not so lucky.

Okay, so the header image isn’t exactly accurate.

At Unfinished Man, we’re definitely not using the CEIVA Pro 80 Digital Connected Photo Frame to show cute pictures of our nieces. Nope, the moment I received the device, I immediately loaded four hundred of my favorite travel photos from South America, Central America, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and yes – even good ol’ America.

As I sit here at my desk writing this review, I find myself distracted by memories of my sweet 20-something adventures. Memories of a
