Meet “Woofy”

Irritated by the spaghetti pile of cables tangled on your floor? Well my cute little friend ‘Woofy’ might be able to help you out.

This adorable injection moulded plastic pup doesn’t shed or need to be walked, but she will conceal all those tangled cables around the base of your desk. Woofy hides all those messy cables and power bars so that all you can see is one cable running from the wall to Woofy’s back paws.

What a good dog!

Polaroid…The Next Generation

This spring Polaroid will release the PoGo….the first camera/printer that allows you to take a photo- edit it - then print out a 2 by 3 inch photo in less then one minute flat.With the help of a Bluetooth or USB cable, you can also connect your phone or another camera to the PoGo and print out inkless snap shots in a flash.

Using Polaroid’s Zink technology, the PoGo heats up a special thermal paper making photos that are dry to the touch; you can even peel off the backing of your photos and use them as stickers.

At $199, this hand held device is much smaller than most portable printers and a better bargain too.

Time to free your photos from your cameras and cell phones. For a release … more …

Kindle 2 - The Electronic Book

I’m not sure how I feel about this because I for one love to read and I like the feel of flipping through the pages of a good novel. So how do I feel about electronic books? I’m really not sure how I feel but looking at the new Kindle 2….I’m a little intrigued!

Newly launched, Amazon’s new and improved Kindle 2 ($395) seems to be better than expected.

Weighing in at just 10.2 ounces and measuring 1/3 of an inch, this upgrade on the classic e-book reader is more portable than a real book could ever hope to be.

I think my favorite feature is the text-to-speech feature, so your K2 can read to you when reading yourself isn’t an option.

Maybe going electronic isn’t such a bad idea after all? … more …

Good Things Come In Small Packages

If you are looking for a great sound in a small package I recommend the iHome portable multi-media speakers. This little guy collapses into a small sized pod that is magnetically attached together for ultimate portability.

When you’re ready to use, just simply detach, extend, set them up on a flat surface or stick them on any magnetic surface and turn the volume up! You will be pleasantly surprised with the “big stereo” sound this mini speaker makes.

The iHM77 works perfectly with your iPhone, laptop or MP3 player. My boyfriend and I watched a movie in bed with these little speakers plugged into the laptop and it definitely enhanced our movie experience.

It’s only $49.99 CDN and you can pick yours up at the Apple store in Pacific Center Mall. … more …
