Solis is Launching Yet Another New Global WiFi Hotspot Model
by Kyle Burbank
Back in 2019, I purchased my first Solis (then known as Skyroam Solis) international hotspot device. Since then, though, the company has rolled out a number of new models — and that pace has really hastened over the past couple of years.

Travel Tuesday: July Capsule Carry On Pro Luggage Review
by Kyle Burbank
I've never been a big fan of hardshell luggage. Even as I've seen them become the preferred option among travelers that I see in the airport, not that I'm keeping a strict count, I never really understood them.
