A-DATA 8 gigs flash drive - 8 gigs storage for a great price!

A-DATA 8 gig flash drive is a compact and versatile storage device which can neatly fitting 8 gigs worth of data. I have this and it works great. The best part is the price. From Supermediastore.com, you can get this for $30.99 which is a superb price for an 8 gig flash drive. The only issue is that it's meant for Windows ME, 2000, and XP (driverless). But I'm sure it will work on Vista if you download specific drivers.

Secunia Software Inspector - makes sure your applications are uptodate.

Secunia Software Inspector does a great job in detecting all your software applications, Microsoft patches, and other programs are updated and secure. You can check your system either online or you can download the program Secunia PSI. This is an excellent program in my opinion and very much needed. I was amazed at how many insecure applications I had. It saved me an enormous amount of time to individually find the applications/programs and update them. Definitely recommended.

Eon Ice - I can see the light from a credit card sized gadget!!



I love LED gadgets and Eon Ice is one amazing product to say the least. As thin as a credit card, Eon Ice is crush proof and water proof; highly portable with two very bright LED lights that can last a long time(5-10 years according to the manufacturer) and can shine continuously for almost 168 hours. It comes in handy at night whether alone in the jungle or searching your bag for your car/house keys. The biggest plus point; it's fairly cheap at $15!

Fatboy Bean Bag - Beanbag heaven!!



My friend actually has a Fatboy beanbag and it is one of the most comfiest beanbags I have ever sat on. What I like about it is the versatility of the beanbag. You can shape it in any way and lie on it in comfort. It's great for crashing out with a good book or watching TV or even playing video games. It's also stylish enough to be put in the living room and it comes in a lot of cool colors. The only drawback is the price which can be around $220. But it's worth it in my opinion.

Anti-Gravity Boots - Jump around like crazy!!

Whoa! What have we here! I just found this recently and it caught my eye! Anti-Gravity boots are basically boots that allow you to jump higher and farther like a kangaroo. They are solid, heavy duty boots that won't leave any tread mark and are gentle on the joints. Even cooler is that they really give you a workout. Great for kids and adults alike!
Price range is between 100-140 bucks depending on kids/adult sizes.

Moon in my Room - Get a moon in your room!


Being a sucker for all things celestial, I found this product to be awesome. Imagine having your own moon in your room lighting up the dark night and showing all the 12 phases! This would be great for any cosomos lovers or for curious kids. The Moon can be mounted on any bedroom wall; it turns on automatically in a dark room and shuts off after half an hour of inactivity. The phases can be switched by remote control or automatically.
I think this a wonderful product that is practical(acts like a night light!) and educational.
Price is anywhere between 25-30 bucks.

Sound Asleep Pillow - a pillow that plays music!


Here's a cool product! The Sound Asleep Pillow! Picture yourself sleeping and listening to your favorite music. That's basically what the pillow is about; you plug in your Ipod or CD Player into the pillow and you can listen to your music. The speaker is deep in the pillow and you can't feel it. Plus only you will hear the sound so it won't disturb anyone else in bed. I think it's an awesome product; nothing beats drifting of to sleep while listening to your favorite song. Heck, you can record your classroom lectures and listen to them while you sleep!
I only found one place which has it and it's around $50. Worth it? Well that depends on you ;)
