There’s a host of Apple rumors hitting the Net today. Everything from a budding, oversized iPod Touch to the imminent demise of Apple Guru Steve Jobs as being the true reason why no keynote from Cupertino are flying around faster and harder than a rubber ball on a racquet ball court But the question is, do these rumors – which are all too often wrong – make any sense? Let’s take a look.
Whenever I take out the trash, I find that I usually have too much garbage for my curbside can for the week. I don’t want to accrue more on my garbage bill by overstuffing it, and I am not allowed to compress it. There is even a sign on my curbside can that says “Do not Compress”, which is why I “push down” my trash every week.
However, if I had the Broan Elite XE Trash Compactor, my kitchen trash would be compacted at a ratio of 6 to 1 with 3,000 pounds of force. So not only would I fill my curbside can with a lesser volume of trash, but I would have to take out my trash a lot less. Each 1.5 cubic foot compacted trash bag holds as much as six 13-gallon bags of ordinary trash.
I’m fairly sure I have the most indoor dog that was ever created. He wants to be outside long enough to do his business and then wants back inside. Which means the overactive little guy is getting out all of his pent up puppy energy indoors. That of course can be maddening at times. So if someone were to state that only a crazy person would buy their dog a treadmill, I would without hesitation agree. When you have a hyper dog indoors though, frankly, you’re already a bit out of your mind.
Go ahead and stare in awe at HP/Voodoo’s concept laptop known as the Firefly. You may never see it hit the market, but it is quite a machine.
The screen is at a whopping 17.1 inches with 1920 x 1200 resolution. It also comes with a secondary screen that is 4.3 inches with 800 x 430 res. I would imagine the second screen would come in handy for checking e-mails or Instant Messaging.
If that second screen isn’t enough to sell you, then you should see the Firefly play Far Cry 2 with settings on “Very High”. Not many laptops, even the gaming kind, can do that.
Some people still truly despise talking on speaker phone or even being put on speaker phone. It never sounds quite right and if you have any hearing issues it might make it very difficult to understand what the person speaking is saying. Which makes this Share-A-Call ideal for parents and grandparents alike. It offers the perk of allowing more than one person to listen in on the conversation as well as contribute to it. Without the issue of it sounding funny or losing some of the volume.
I’m sure that if we took some sort survey about the number of faxes vs. the number of emails last year, the number of faxes would only be a fraction of the number of emails. I’m also certain that the rise of emails in the early to mid-nineties led to a decrease in the amount of faxes.
I suppose it stands to reason that someone would invent a fax machine that works more like email than an actual fax. Panasonic of Japan is the company who is offering these paperless fax machines as part of the KX-PW 608 series.
So how does one fax without fax paper? A built-in keypad allows the user to type out the messages, and he or she also has the option of sending Word documents.
Having a state of the art alarm system is ideal, however, not everyone can have that. Be it due to finances or just that you’re renting instead of in a home that you own yourself. This gadget isn’t necessarily to make you feel at ease while you’re asleep at night, but more to protect your things when you’re away. While you’re out on vacation, you can set up this light timer to make it appear as if someone is still within the house.
George Bush has certainly been the butt of many a joke throughout his tenure as President of the USA, and there has been no shortage of collectibles depicting his presidency as well. Here’s one of them – the George Bush Toilet Brush that, according to the product description, “the build up from the rest of his reign might be impossible to clean up.” This is one funny political gag collectible – pity the item has been discontinued by the manufacturer so make sure you can land one of these puppies for $19.95 before it goes out of office, to put it succinctly.
