iMONO 80-in-1 High Speed Card Reader + Hub

If you happen to deal with a whole lot of memory cards in your line of work, then the iMONO 80-in-1 High Speed Card Reader + Hub should make a staple appearance on your desktop at all times. There is no need for pesky card adapters, although those come bundled with smaller and less conventional memory cards, as it is compatible with the majority of memory cards today. In addition to reading all your portable memory cards, this nifty gadget comes with an integrated 3-port USB 2.0 hub for further connectivity. Among the memory card formats supported by this $19 gizmo are SD, M2, SDHC, MMC4.2, CF4.0, MS Pro DUO, micro SDHC, XD and mini SDHC.
USB Ladybird Mouse

What kind of mouse would go with a cute Asus Eee PC? Well, here’s a candidate if you haven’t yet gotten one already – the USB Ladybird Mouse. Available in either green or red colors (I would settle for the latter since that is what ladybirds should look like – a green one is probably suffering from some stomach ailment and hence that monstrous color), this USB-powered device is extremely lightweight and compact in size, making it the perfect traveling companion without weighing you down unnecessarily. Of course, for $14.90 you might actually find something else you like. I’d recommend those with rather large hands to avoid this purchase.
United Airlines offer iPod and iPhone connectivity

Are you sick and tired of in-flight movies on offer that are pretty stale, and often there is nothing being shown that you’d like to watch? Well, United Airlines has changed all that by being the first U.S. carrier to offer both iPod and iPhone connectivity to its in-flight entertainment system, letting passengers enjoy the movies they want to watch on a personal 15.4″ display, and best of all is, your iPod/iPhone will remain charged as long as it is plugged in. In addition, the customized video and audio options complements over 150 hours of movies and television shows available on-demand on United’s newly-configured international aircraft, inclusive of games and XM radio. Which is your favorite airline to fly with?
New Kevlar XP offers Ballistic, Trauma Protection
DuPont Kevlar XP is a new patented technology which offers both ballistic and trauma protection in a more comfortable body armor solution. So far tests have shown that Kevlar XP is able to stop bullets consistently within the first three layers of a vest designed with a total of 11 layers, while the rest of the layers found on the Kevlar XP absorb the energy of the bullet. Of course, this doesn’t mean you should walk right up in front of a firefight since the force of the bullet will still bruise your body. Guess the military will find this new development more interesting than us civilians, since we don’t deal so much with bullets and are restricted by some pretty tough gun laws out there.

All you need to do is place it on the book or current page and you’re good to go. Being highly portable, this $25 gizmo makes for a great traveling companion.

Verizon Wireless roll out LG Decoy
Verizon Wireless and LG Electronics have teamed up to make the LG Decoy available to the masses – this is the first cell phone in the world that comes with an integrated Bluetooth hands-free headset, letting you speak while driving without running the risk of getting fined. Of course, the advantage of carrying it with you wherever you go is also huge, since I hate toting around more than I should, so combining both devices into a single package is but a brilliant thing to do. The docking port on the back of the phone is discreetly positioned, so you won’t have to risk embarrassing yourself whenever you whip out the LG Decoy in the presence of others.
