You are in the office, bored, and desperate for a mid day escape. You really want to look at Gadget Extra or maybe play some games you so cleverly loaded onto your bootable usb drive. And you
need to check that item on your ebay watch list. But, you aren't aloud to stray off task at work, it may cost you your job, because you already got caught by the V.P. watching
"Chocolate Rain" on YouTube. You tried to tell him that the video was meant to motivate you to work harder for the company, but he didn't buy it.

When you think about the future of tech, lasers usually come to mind. Well, for me at least. Now there is this laser keyboard, a very small, even "pocketable", device that displays a virtual, full size keyboard on the flat surface of your choice.
And what's better than simulated click sounds when you press the "buttons?" One of my favorite things about this product is, it's connected by blue tooth.

Just the look of this one is exciting. This handheld gaming console, brought to us by some no-name manufacturer, has an unexpected amount of potential for gameplay, connectivity, and my likelihood to buy it.
We don't know a whole lot yet, but we know enough to anticipate more. One of its more noticeable features is its
WiMAX, Wi-FI and Bluetooth.

USB ports are so useful, aren't they? Except for when they're wasted. We've seen USB utilized to send convenience through the roof, and we've also seen it used to keep your drinks cool. I suppose that's the kind of diversity you get, but come on.
The gadget in question now is
Thanko's USB Warmer Cushion. It's function seems obvious; plug 'er up, it warms your rump. I suppose if you had a metal chair or something, which doesn't seem that common, this could possibly be useful.

Okay, so the iPhone isn't 100% back to itself, but it's progress since the last update announcing an
all-but-bricked phone. When I said it would be war between hackers and Apple, I meant it.
If you missed it or just don't feel like going back to the article linked above, Apple has released the dreaded
firmware updates we've been reluctantly anticipating; this means overriding all hacks/unlocks and bricking the iPhone.

If you haven't played Guitar Hero, you've at least heard of it. The addictive, guitar version of DDR has been a massive success, but now
MTV and EA team up to take the franchise head-on.
Rock Band, the result of Guitar Hero's challengers, will be available for PS2, PS3, and of course, the Xbox 360. Instead of just a guitar, players will also be able to work with drums and mics.

If your goal in life is to prank and annoy, then this product is for you. The concept is rather simple. The annoy-a-tron is a device not much bigger than a quarter, that has a magnet for sticking on hard to reach metal surfaces. Don't have respect for it yet?Select 2 kHz, 12 kHz, or alternate, turn it on, and hide it. In two to eight minutes you will hear the first annoying beep.[Read the rest of this post]

Instead of cutting off the XP sales in Januray, 2008, it will continue to ship into June of 2008. Why? Because Vista sucks.
Even users who've never touched Vista can tell you how bad it is, simply from hearing all of the horror stories from those of us who
have worked with it. And I mean that literally; it is
work, and a constant struggle, to use Vista. But of course, in its infinite wisdom, Microsoft can find a clever way play it in words (and it goes a little something like this):
"There are some customers who need a little more time to make the switch.
