NYC Resident Makes Gadget Repair House Calls

Filed under: Misc. Gadgets

Broken gadgets suck, especially when it’s an iPod. All of a sudden you find yourself walking to the subway sans tunes. The train ride gets longer, sights become more boring and overall, the ride sucks. Luckily, there is hope.

If you live in NYC, give Demetrios Leontaris a call. This sly Greek will roll over to your pad to fix your iPod, Zune, Macbook or any other gadget that is acting up. He recently got a write-up in Fortune, so you know he’s legit and not trying to sell you a “sweet deal on DirecTV.”

A Skateboard That Would Make Plato Proud

Skateboarding isn’t for everyone, though Ryan is pretty decent at it. Take Tougher Than Leather - a Greek-inspired skateboard that is made to order from Greece Is For Lovers. Though it looks beautiful and the strap-in style deck is similar to snowboarding, I can see a lot of ankles getting twisted trying to pull off tricks on this board.

They don’t list a price and considering that the board features intricate writing, stitching and craftsmanship, I bet it isn’t cheap. Skating in New York with this board? Not a chance. Stick to the Enjoi.
