The remote control buttons are very well integrated into the overall watch design and are very easy to push. The remote can be programmed, using a 4 or 5 digits code, in approximately 30 seconds.

Skypeâ„¢ Cordless Phone

“Stick it to the Man” Wirelessly

Shhh… don’t tell your phone company but there’s this little service called Skypeâ„¢ that, using your PC and some internet black magic, lets you talk to anyone, anywhere in the world for free. What’s that you say? You already know about Skypeâ„¢ and have been using it for months to call your cousin Sven in Copenhagen… Ahh. But wouldn’t it be delightful to roam your house freely while you and Sven chat about how Empire Strikes Back really was the best Star Wars movie ever made and how newer technology and special effects don’t necessarily make a better film?

Enter the Linksys Skypeâ„¢ Cordless Phone. Rather than be tethered to your PC for all your Skypeâ„¢ calls you can “stick it to the man” wirelessly by making and receiving free calls from every room in your house. The compact handset sports a color LCD allowing you to display your Skypeâ„¢ contact list, connection status, and see who is calling with Caller ID. Built in speakerphone on the handset is a nice extra.

Simply plug in the USB base station to your PC, install the included software and be Skyping in no time. You even get 60 free SkypeOut minutes… to call those pesky friends who don’t already use Skypeâ„¢.

The sweetness starts with an adjustable backlit LCD display. This allows you to see crucial game data without using valuable screen real estate. You can track in-game resources and set timers for game events.18 Programmable “G keys” can perform complex macros – like casting spells – with a single keystroke. Of course the glowing backlit keyboard helps with stealthy night gaming… no need to alert the whole household to your insatiable addiction.

For those few minutes every day when you’re not gaming, the LCD display can update you with useful system stats such as current music file playing, unread e-mail count, CPU performance and clock. Channels under the G15 Keyboard conveniently allow you to route cables for mouse and headset.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com essential video
Two of the all-time cartoon classics It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966) and A Charlie Brown Christmas (a Peabody and Emmy winner from 1965) highlight this three-disc, six-episode set. Although the DVDs contain no extras (good grief!) and could have been combined on a single disc (drat!), the collection looks and sounds wonderful on DVD. The content is the same on the VHS and DVD sets, with two episodes per tape or disc. Accompanying Pumpkin is You’re Not Elected, Charlie Brown, a cute spin on politics that has aged very well since its 1972 release. Christmas sports a lackluster sequel of sorts, It’s Christmas Time Again, Charlie Brown (1992) that has Sally dwelling on getting (instead of giving), Charlie Brown facing a spending dilemma, and everyone suffering stage fright before the annual school play. A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (1973) also won an Emmy but is not as well known as others; it also suffers from not having the original cast. Snoopy is foremost in helping to put on an impromptu feast (toast and popcorn) as the gang keeps forgetting the true meaning of the holiday. Also on the disc is a better Thanksgiving venue, The Mayflower Voyages (1988), part of the This is America, Charlie Brown series that breathed new life into the franchise. Mostly narrated by Linus, the show traces the Pilgrims’ plight and doesn’t talk down to youngsters on the hardships they faced. It’s a treasure of a gift (for others or yourself), all nicely packaged. –Doug Thomas

Product Description:
Pumpkin Season is a Read-A-Long DVD Picture book for children of all ages. It is a wonderful story about what goes on in a pumpkin patch during the fall season. Our story revolves around a cute little pumpkin named Reggie. He can’t wait to go to the jack-o-lantern auditions and play pumpkin games at the seasonal patch parties. However, in pumpkin society you either qualify to become a jack-o-lantern, or you are kicked out of the patch and made into pie by the Bakerman!
The Bakerman never makes pies out of the official jack-o-lanterns, but he has a big pie order to fill and now all pumpkins are up for grabs, especially Reggie. Reggie’s courage and determination unites the pie pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns, and they all join together to defeat the Bakerman. The jack-o-lanterns finally realize that big or small, scary or not, they are all the same. And from now on all pumpkins will be Holiday jack-o-lanterns, thanks to Reggie.

Editorial Reviews

Ever spend eight hours in a “Productivity Bin”? Ever had worries about layoffs? Ever had the urge to demolish a temperamental printer or fax machine? Ever had to endure a smarmy, condescending boss? Then Office Space should hit pretty close to home for you. Peter (Ron Livingston) spends the day doing stupefyingly dull computer work in a cubicle. He goes home to an apartment sparsely furnished by IKEA and Target, then starts for a maddening commute to work again in the morning. His coworkers in the cube farm are an annoying lot, his boss is a snide, patronizing jerk, and his days are consumed with tedium. In desperation, he turns to career hypnotherapy, but when his hypno-induced relaxation takes hold, there’s no shutting it off. Layoffs are in the air at his corporation, and with two coworkers (both of whom are slated for the chute) he devises a scheme to skim funds from company accounts. The scheme soon snowballs, however, throwing the three into a panic until the unexpected happens and saves the day. Director Mike Judge has come up with a spot-on look at work in corporate America circa 1999. With well-drawn characters and situations instantly familiar to the white-collar milieu, he captures the joylessness of many a cube denizen’s work life to a T. Jennifer Aniston plays Peter’s love interest, a waitress at Chotchkie’s, a generic beer-and-burger joint à la Chili’s, and Diedrich Bader (The Drew Carey Show) has a minor but hilarious turn as Peter’s mustached, long-haired, drywall-installin’ neighbor. –Jerry Renshaw –This text refers to the VHS Tape edition.

The Magic Unicorn Banner has a deep black top panel and a gold bottom panel. The Unicorn Crest is silk-screened on in silver. The height of the Magic Unicorn banner is 48 inches and the width is 22 ½ inches. Made of durable cotton.

Unicorn is a mythic animal with the body of a white horse, the legs of an antelope, and the tail of lion; a single spiral horn growing out of its forehead. It is the symbol of supreme magical power. It teaches that every action is creation, so make every day count. In addition, it helps to understand the relationship between physical and spiritual realities.

The unicorn is probably the only fabulous beast that does not seem to have been created out of human fears. In even the earliest references, he is fierce yet good, selfless yet solitary, but always mysteriously beautiful. He could be captured only by unfair means and his single horn was said to neutralize poison.

J.R.R. Tolkien’s phenomenal epic trilogy chronicles the struggle between good and evil for possession of a magical ring.

IN STOCK
The book trilogy, named the most popular book of the 20th Century, has been presented in a series of feature films from New Line Cinema. “The Fellowship of the Ring”, “The Two Towers” and “The Return of the King” together compose the motion picture event of the 21st Century. A work of sheer invention on a staggering scale, “The Lord of the Rings” takes us back to “Middle-earth,” an era that predates written history, where humans share the world with immortal elves, powerful wizards, and industrious dwarves.

Known primarily for their innate abilities to smith metal and stone, Dwarves are proud and strong-willed, ready for battle at a moment’s notice. Like many Dwarves, Gimli, son of Gloin, favors the axe as his primary weapon. Accompanying his father to the Council of Elrond at Rivendell, Gimli is chosen to represent the Dwarves in the Fellowship of the Ring. After the Fellowship becomes separated, Gimli fights valiantly alongside Legolas and Aragorn from the Battle of Helms Deep to the Black Gates of Mordor. With his unshakable determination for success, he proves to be a valuable aid to the Fellowship. In Moria, after a cave-troll destroys the tomb of his forefather, Balin, Gimli is able to retrieve the mighty two-handed Battle Axe that had once belonged to the Dwarf-lord. From that point on, Gimli uses this Battle Axe for all close combat. Prepared for as many different situations as possible, he carries the Battle Axe with him, along with his Walking Axe, Bearded Axe, and two throwing axes. The massive head of this Battle Axe could be swung in both directions, making it a good choice for rapid moving combat.

Includes a parchment certificate of authenticity and a wood display plaque.

Wi-Fi Digital HotSpotter (Canary Wireless)

WiFi Detection with LCD screen

We haven’t seen any WiFi sniffing dogs at the airport but we suspect that somewhere there is a small group of individuals dedicated to training such useful helpers. Until these canines are trained and domesticated we have a device that can assist in “sniffing out” the presence of WiFi. It’s a nice unit that offers several improvements on currently available WiFi detectors.

Your typical WiFi detector will only show the presence of a signal and relative signal strength. This Wi-Fi Digital Hotspotter, from Canary Wireless, has a 12-character LCD that provides information on signal availability and strength as well as essential network information, including SSID, security status and channel. When multiple networks are present the LCD will allow you to scroll through information for each network.

Also has these great features.

3-D LASER CRYSTAL ART PIECES

LASER CRYSTAL: Two Dolphins with Large Coconut Trees

(subject to inventory quantities, and design availability)

This is a 3-D Laser Crystal Art Piece of “Two Dolphins with Large Coconut Trees”.

Laser Crystal Art is created by a powerful laser beam which is highly focused on a spot inside the crystal, melting microscopic pieces of glass. Then the laser beam refocuses to burn another spot, corresponding with the previous one. It is repeated thousands of times, to create this amazing 3-D image inside the glass. Crystal design has bevelled edges, and measures approximately 3″ x 2″ x 2″ (50mm x 50mm x 80mm).

Comes with nice gift box (see picture). Perfect as a small unique gift or desk decor. Please click on above image for greater detail, however the 2-D picture on the Internet does not do justice to this lovely 3-D Laser Crystal.

We recommended that you consider also purchasing the “Crystal Rotary Slide Show” item. This spectacular LED light is designed to make the 3D laser crystal look more breath taking when you put the crystal on top of the base.

The base utilizes a stylish rotary mirror disc and LED lighting show, which make the 3D-image glow in an amazing fashion. This beautiful crystal with the brilliant color will brighten up any room or location that you put it in.

The large display (4″ diameter) has 8 rotary lights and and the small display (3″ diameter) has 4 rotary lights are both listed under separate cover and not included in the above price.
