A personal media experience inside one of the Ovei pod is bound to be a rich one. One aspect that will certainly be superior to conventional media centers is the sound experience. The surround effect and the bass vibrations will be much better than most open-room speaker systems, just like earphones give higher fidelity sounds than speakers. Although I am not certain, I am guessing that for the price of £50,000, there could be added features like a vibrating seat, and I can bet it has air-conditioning as well. What I am certain of, is that the enclosure will have the best available speaker system, and the display monitor will be top of the line. One downside to this and other enclosure systems is that the occupant is completely isolated from the surroundings outside the pod, and would be completely unaware of any dangers. But I’m guessing that those who can afford to pay almost $100,000 for the Ovei pod can also afford to furnish proper security for their surroundings. So, if one can... See less

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LapWorks™ Inc., the market leader in ergonomic and heat-reducing laptop desks and stands, today announced its initial entry into the PC Gaming market with the portable Gamers Desk. As PC gamers move to their couches to play First Person Shooter (FPS) and other high precision games on their HDTV or laptop screen, the Desk provides a comfortable, ergonomically-sound, wide flat platform across the lap with ample space for a broad gaming keyboard and optical mouse or a laptop and external mouse. Measuring 11 inches wide by 26 ¾ across, including a 6 x 9 inch mousing area on either end, the Gamers Desk is made of high-impact ABS plastic, comes in modernistic ‘gun-metal’ gray and retails for $39.95 directly from LapWorks. “LapWorks’ Gamers Desk makes a timely entrance into a converging market where many traditional desktop PC gamers are moving with keyboard and mouse in front of the TV, once the sole domain of console games,” said Jo Jo Marks,...

For sheer bang-for-the-buck, these cord management cards are tough to beat. They're cheap polyethylene sheets you either stick or screw to the edge of your desk and then snap the cables coming from your computer and peripherals into the recesses. I was tired of picking my iPod connector off the floor when it would fall off my desktop. With this, the ends of the cables are kept at the ready on your desk, which is especially great for stuff you are regularly plugging and unplugging. You can also use it to neatly route other cables coming from the back of a PC tower, like speaker and ethernet, which really helps cut down cable clutter. I've had one card stuck to the underside of my desk for about a year for two iPods (video and shuffle), a digital camera cable, and a charger for my Bluetooth headset (I find it is less visually obtrusive underneath my desk). The double stick tape they use is very sticky. I have a lacquered wood desk. It sticks great. I've never tried to pull it off, but I... See less

British inventors have designed a washing machine that takes eco-friendliness to a new level: it uses just a single cup of water to wash a load of clothes. Instead of water the Xeros machine uses thousands of special plastic chips (about 44 pounds' worth) in each wash, and when that single cup of water is heated, these chips absorb the dirt—including tricky stuff like coffee and lipstick. The chips are removed when the wash ends, and can be reused up to 100 times. Though it's still in prototyping, the inventors are intending to commercialize their machine, and it may even hit the shops next year for a price similar to conventional machines.

Do you have a constant, annoying ringing in your ears? If you're like us, you probably suffer from at least a mild form of tinnitus. Whether it's from exposure to massive jet engines, or just listening to Reign in Blood one too many times, you probably wish there was some way to stop the incessant noise. Well, a company called Neuromonics may be able to help, using an audio player which alternates a mixture of white noise and music to train your brain to ignore the ringing. The player gradually reduces the level of the white noise, and after six months of treatment, patients can use the device as needed. This kind of relief doesn't come for free, however, as counseling and the unit will cost you $3,000 to $6,000, and you probably won't be able to get your insurance to pay for it.

This innocent-looking 1" dia. flat steel bagel is really a very versatile pocket screwdriver. What makes it so effective is the range of edge thickness (from 0.030" to 0.090") created by a ramp formed on one side. It replaces dimes, quarters and table knives, all of which have width and strength limitations. We sell them by the dozen because they make excellent gifts, particularly to those whom you want to discourage from using cutlery for household repairs. These screwdrivers should be in every kitchen knife drawer and pocket. Guaranteed to be the only screwdriver in the shop that will snugly fit the cap iron screw on a plane. What else can we say?
