Want a desk that allows you to sit OR stand? Check out the Biomorph Interactive Desk, and enjoy the “circle of power” ergonomic layout.
Biomorph offers a ton of options and desk styles, so be sure to check out their gallery.
I’m still a big fan of the manufacturer Anthro; check out their Fit Adjusta desk — with the ability to add their modular components, you can have a nice swing-arm monitor solution (adjustable for height and viewing angle) as well as being able to adjust desk tilt for either the back or front independently. Oh, and you can always go with their cool casters, or feet for added stability.

Hey folks, Amazon.com has some seriously great instant rebates
on select Logitech devices!
If you’re in the market for a new wireless keyboard, webcam, or sound system, be sure to check out these deals.
I find the Logitech diNovo Edge Keyboard
particularly interesting, with the new-fangled TouchDisc (just like on the DiNovo Mini) and kick-ass recharging station/keyboard stand.

I know it’s been a while since my last post (*blush*) so I’m going to throw you a new gadget — The DiNovo Mini; A miniature keyboard, complete with a track pad and bluetooth goodness. All in a multi-tone smoke translucent, shiny black, and silver plastic case! Yum!
So, folks — tired of having to use a mouse and wireless keyboard for your media pc? even the smallest keyboards are cumbersome and awkward. If you’re trying to use a mouse, good luck finding a flat surface… maybe that coffee table makes a good desk for you, but it hurts my back! The DiNovo Mini is a tiny keyboard that fits easily in your hands, includes the full complement of media keys, a track pad (with a touch of a switch becomes a cursor pad!) and best of all? It lights up! Beautiful!

Well, it’s bound to happen eventually — someone builds a better mouse trap. Are you a truck driver or freight transporter? Navevo has build business logic into their latest GPS Navigation software package; input your load, height, length of your vehicle and voila, out spits a route perfectly designed for your particular driving needs! With such cool features as “High Wind” and “Steep Hills” warnings, as well as alternate routing — this might be something of interest for RVers too…
The software works on PND’s, PDA’s and Windows Smartphones.

The fine company PocketMac has introduced a new product — GoBetween for Meeting Maker (also available for Entourage) to complement their PocketMac PDA/PDA Phone sync software.
I have a MacBook Pro, a Verizon (Samsung) SCH-i760, and the company I work for is using People Cube’s Meeting Maker for calendaring and scheduling. Since I’ve been here I’ve tried various methods to import my calendar into my phone — what a pain! From a custom web app, to manually importing data — both buggy, error prone, and slooooooooow.
With the introduction of GoBetween, I finally have a product that will sync my calendar and to-do list across all my systems.

Yeah, yeah, I know… winter is almost over (NOT!) I just picked up four pair of these from Palmflex through Amazon.com (no, not all four for me; one for each member of my family.) I use them almost ever day on my commute to work, since I’m now standing in line at the BART station, in the wind tunnel called a “platform.”
Do you snowboard? Ski? Play in the snow? Stand out in the cold looking miserable? Shivering and freezing your tushie off, all while your ears suffer frostbite? Don’t want to mess up your hair? 180s wrap around the back of your head, and these even come with a detachable cord and volume adjustment doo-hickey on said cord.

Who’d thunk it? Finally Rabbit ears and wireless… it all makes sense. Meet the Nabaztagtag
the RFID Sniffing, mood shifting, t’ai chi practicing bunnies!
Touted as the “world’s first wireless rabbit” Nabaztagtag (the bunny formerly known as Nabaztag) connects through your WiFi to talk to other Nabaztagtags. How’d you like to have a cute little bunny read you current news headlines, it can even tell you what the weather is going to be like.
Adjust the ears, and it’s mate (somewhere else on the internet) will shift its ears to match — you can make up your own secret code! Or, if you prefer, send audio messages to another Nabaztagtag somewhere else on the ‘net.

Finally, an electronic book reader that uses EVDO, doesn’t cost you a dime for wireless access, gives you access to WikiPedia, and can last up to a week without a recharge!
*Drool*
Check out the Kindle at Amazon!
