Fall has returned to the Midwest, and that also means the return of many popular TV shows. With today’s technology, viewers can bring their television with them wherever they go with TV apps on various types of devices and accessories.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 ($499.99) is great for anyone on the go. The Note has multi-window capabilities, making it easier than ever to mix business with pleasure. One window can be open for work and one for streaming a favorite show. Sync the tablet to the Bose AE2w Bluetooth Headphones($249.99) and enjoy the crisp sound and wireless freedom. The around-the-ear design of the headphones makes them so comfortable that you may not want to take them off during its seven-hour battery life.
In a review, a blogger from SmartHome.com found the headphones to be “light and comfortable and possess good sound quality — three important traits for a pair of portable headphones.” The headphones are also capable of switching between devices, making answering a call during the show on the Droid Maxx ($299.99 with two year activation) effortless.
