HP released the first multi-touch notebook for consumers. It's called the
TouchSmart tx2 Notebook PC. There are some drawbacks, but I'm happy to see it come to market, and it'll only get better from here.
The
VUDU XL2 is rack mountable and offers 1TB of storage, with SD and HD video from the VUDU library.
Thinking about frying a turkey for Thanksgiving this year? The
Oil-less Turkey Fryer offers all the goodness of a fried turkey without all the fat.
I've been super excited the past couple weeks as I waited for the
Wicked Laser to come in the mail. This thing is...well, wicked! The Woz has Wicked Laser, although I think he has one that can light a match. As awesome as these things are, please be very careful with them! They can be dangerous if pointed at someone's eye or in the sky (don't want to take down any planes, okay?). Now that we've gotten the warning out of the way, have fun with yours! Neal won't stop playing with ours.
