Join Powerlink 3-in-1 Battery Pack/Data Sync/Flash Drive
Powerlink has rolled out a 3-in-1 Battery Pack/Data Sync/Flash Drive that seems to be able to do just about anything. First off, we have an “emergency” charger that comes in pretty handy these days considering the huge amount of gizmos we tote around. In addition, it doubles up as a 2GB USB flash drive, perfect for you to carry even more personal files with you wherever you go (just like USB ports, you can never have enough memory in your possession). Too bad it doesn’t clean your home for you, as this wonder unit will retail for $49.99 a pop.
TaylorMade Spider precision putter
If you want to get better at golf, why not obtain some help from the Spider precision putter from TaylorMade?

It is interesting to note that tests have shown even misfired putts on purpose do defy logic and head nearer the cup instead. Move over, Tiger Woods, with the Spider precision putter, I’m going to see you off at St. Andrews next year.
