The Handy Makes Hard Jobs Easier

Spot Industries spokesperson So Soon Dun states “Handy could be useful for any number of domestic tasks such as washing, hammering, painting, digging, kneading, the only limit is your imagination.” He went on to mention that “Handy has a very, very firm but soft grip and its ability to oscillate up and down at select speeds is quite satisfying.”

This looks to be a little on the large size, as Microsoft have attempted to cram everything into on controller.

The Xbox has competition from the PS3 and Wii yet have these machines really made any dent into the Xbox sales? It is far to early for sure, yet Microsoft do appear to be consolidating the Xbox accessories and software market now, there is a rumor that they are looking to take over Take Two, the software house that creates the GTA series amongst others, is this a play to prevent future GTA games coming out on the PS3 format in favor of the Xbox?

I’m MAD!

Not in the Mothers Against Drunk Driving type,, but mad nonetheless.

This weekend for some weird reason, my palm pilot crapped out on me and though my contacts and memos still exist, I completely lost all distinct events listed in my calendar (my 4th pilot since 1997, love them for their simplicity, kinda frustrated right now).

Maybe I’m just dumb (don’t worry I hit the revert button right away,, nothing), but I’ve been thinking a lot about planning and scheduling apps. I have access to far too many of them, let’s see, Palm, Outlook, Yahoo, Gmail, MSN, Scrybe (yayy the beta is rocking, more on that later) and Evite (yes, I count Evite, it’s a great service that does a specific job very well, but lacks in my main complaint here).

On to my whine (and no, I’m not drinking any @#($* merlot!)

Why has no one created an email-able calendar event notification that is insert-able in ANY scheduling program?!

This has driven me mad for far too long. Half of my events require some other human to be there. I don’t want to “run their life” but I do want them to have a reminder available, no matter how they prefer to schedule their life. The issue we’ve all run into is simple, WE ALL PLAN DIFFERENTLY. However, we all do plan (sort of ).

Ah, to be young and in love again. Ask any pair of lovers and they will tell you that being in love in an extremely special feeling, enabling them to put up with the worst in each other, from bad habits like picking one’s nose in public or chewing one’s nails. Of course, the one thing lovers miss most about each other when separated is the smell of their other half. This is where the Breath Capture device comes in. The idea is extremely simple in its premise, but when you think about it, it really makes sense. The Breath Capture is actually a tube that can be used to store your loved one’s breath before he or she leaves for that long business trip. You can subsequently wear it around your neck as a piece of biological bling or simply display it on a stand for all and sundry to see.

It is Monday, and there is nothing quite like starting the day off with a hot cup of freshly brewed coffee as you get back to the gruelling weekly torture ritual we call work. Why not use technology to your advantage by purchasing the Melitta ME1MSB Smart Brew coffee making machine? This nifty smart device does not only mix a mean cup of coffee, the Melitta Smart Brew is also capable of telling you region specific weather thanks to the LCD display, courtesy of MSN Direct. Since the information is transferred over via FM signal, there is no need for you to pull another line into the pantry just to know whether the evening weather is suitable for a round of golf.

Logitech products have been written about here before, but never one of their web cams.

The QuickCam Pro is a webcam deigned specifically for laptops, meaning it’s small and can latch on to the top of your laptop. To put it in perspective, the QuickCam Pro is the size of an average house key. For carrying your QuickCam Pro around, just use the included carrying case.

This gadget could be the ultimate toy for all the lazy iPod fans out there. The iJoy ZipConnect Massage Chair has built-in speakers and sub woofer to surround you with sound while you relax in your massage chair.

Included is the ZipConnect module which allows you to connect any audio device (not just an iPod) to the chair with an 18-inch cable. The ZipConnect is also interchangeable with other iPod modules that allow you to play music as it charges so you never miss a beat! Powerful built in stereo speakers are found on either side of the headrest, while the sub woofer gives you all the bass you need from the bottom of the chair.
