Summer is coming soon, so it makes perfect sense that the mercury is going to shoot up pretty soon with everyone opting for thinner cotton shirts. The USB Flower Fan provides some much needed relief, drawing power from your computer’s USB port in order to power the USB Flower Fan. Alternatively, if you aren’t in the vicinity of a USB port, there is always the option to use a trio of AAA batteries instead. The blades are made out of plastic for your safety, and despite that, it is able to generate a pretty strong breeze to help you cool down. The USB Flower Fan retails for $11.50 a pop.
Here’s something you can use as a Monopoly piece - a metal F1 car that actually carries some internal flash memory within. Unlike its real world counterpart, I don’t think that the speed of its data transfers are anything to shout about. It is available for $10.93 a pop with a catch - you’ll need to order at least 500 pieces in order to get that price for 2GB worth of portable memory.
Hawking Technologies has recently announced that it will begin to ship the first Wireless-300N WiFi Networking Adapter which sees an integration of second generation Dual Antenna Dish Technology for extreme WiFi performance. Shaped after a miniature satellite dish, the wireless adapter features a Hi-Gain dual-antenna feed design which is capable of boosting WiFi distances by up to 600% in comparison to standard embedded applications. I guess the folks at Hawking Technologies got it spot on when they remarked, “The problem with wireless networks these days is not the speed, it’s the distance. Regardless of how fast your network is, if you can’t reach the wireless signal, it simply won’t work. We understand this at Hawking and are very excited to announce the release of the 
Just like hard drive space, you can’t have too many USB ports as well. Kensington agrees with this adage with their new Ci70 keyboard that features a couple of USB 2.0 ports, expanding your computer’s connectivity even more. I guess some monitors and now even keyboards come with USB 2.0 ports - what will you wager on the next peripheral to include additional ports? Printers, scanners, or even mice? I think the former two are feasible but definitely not a mouse, since you’ll be moving it all over the place most of the time anyway. A trackball would fare much better in this aspect. The Kensington Ci70 keyboard boasts a 35% smaller footprint and low-profile design, featuring five hot keys for quick access to mail, media, and search, while media keys offer volume control, track control, play and pause. It will retail for $49.99 and is now available for pre-order from Amazon.
So you’re part of the remnant on this earth that still owns video tapes but have run out of players to play them. Why not digitize these video tapes instead? At least you will be able to loop them infinitely on your PC, and best of all is there is no need to rewind those tapes once you’re done as everything can be done at the click of a button. ION Audio has just released its VCR 2 PC device that connects to your PC via USB 2.0, with an adjacent composite connection for camcorders, while RCA output is located on the back to playback previews on a TV. In the PAL version, you will find the SCART output as well. All digital conversion will be in the H.264 for iPod/PSP or MPEG-2 for DVD authoring formats. The ION VCR 2 PC will retail for $249 each.
