I know I said I’d have the review posted by tonight, but it’s going on midnight here and I still need to add a few things. So I’m going to be day late in my promise. Sorry guys! Forgive me? :o)

If you need a couple of chuckles to get you through this lazy Friday afternoon, I have got you covered. CJ Arabia from DotComedy.Com sent me an email with several links. These are my two faves… Alec Baldwin iPhone: http://video.dotcomedy.com/player/?id=125012 George Bush iPhone http://video.dotcomedy.com/player/?id=125011 FYI: My review of the iPhone will be up by Monday
Ambient devices have been popping up all over the place these days. There is the Ambient Orb, Ambient Umbrella, Ambient Dashboard, and now we have the Nabaztag/Tag Wireless WiFi Rabbit. Yes, you read that correctly, a WiFi rabbit. And a cute one at that. My good friends at Think Geek were kind enough to send me a Nabaztag/Tag for review.

As Ryan Preston (one of the contributing writers here on The Gadgeteer) just IM’d me: “Happy 4th! Go blow something up!” :o) Hope everyone has a great day relaxing, grilling hamburgers and watching fireworks.
Is it weird that as a girl, I like tools? I mean, I don’t have a job that requires tools… I’m a corporate america techie that sits in a cube all day long pecking away on a PC and answering / making phone calls for my CAD and data management user support job. Not exactly the type of career that requires me to carry around a pair of pliers, screw driver or saw. But I have always loved pocket knives and small pocket type tools. I guess it comes from my Dad who had a wonderful little pocket knife collection, that I would ‘play with’ whenever my parents would leave my sister and I unattended.

Well, I survived one of the most hyped days of my lifetime so far: 06/29/07 iPhone Day. Unlike a lot of lucky people, I had to work yesterday until 3:30pm. My excitement started building around noon and by the time my work day was done, I was out the door and on my way over

Am I the only person that is stuck at work this afternoon dreaming of the iPhone? ;o) I keep fearing that a huge line is forming at my local AT&T store. If this actually happens, I’ll be really surprised ;o) I probably won’t head over there until around 5pm. Or maybe 4pm. Maybe I should

If you have a date with the iPhone planned for Friday at 6pm, I wanna know about it. You know that I’ll be at my local Cingular / AT&T store (I don’t think they’ve changed the sign yet…). :o) Doubt if anyone is camping out here in good old Columbus Indiana, so I’ll just hang

How many of you keep a flashlight in the glove compartment of your car? Ok, now how many of you ever remember to charge / change
the batteries in those flashlights regularly? Me neither. Kind of defeats the purpose of having it there in the first
place doesn’t it? ;o) Coast Products has just come out with the Auto LED (TT7575CP). Sent to me by Discount LED Lights and Knives, this is a cool little LED flashlight for your vehicle that is always
juiced up and ready for use because it stores in a 12V cigarette lighter socket and charges while your car is running.

Patriotic Gadgeteers are going to get a kick out of the gadget that appeared on my doorstep tonight. It’s The Wave Flag. Made by SRM Entertainment Ltd. out of Philadelphia, PA. (where else right?), this American flag stands 17 inches tall. As is, this flag would be a fun decoration for any office worker’s cube

I’m not a kid anymore, but I still enjoy playing with
construction toys on occasion. I guess it has something to do with the fact that
I always wanted a LEGO set when I was child,
but never was fortunate enough to receive any. The closest that I got to LEGO
was Tinkertoys,
Lincoln Logs and my
Dad’s old Erector set.
They were all fun to play with, but they weren’t LEGO. Today I’m going to tell
you about ENGINO construction toys. These
award winning toys are from Cyprus, and bear a resemblance to LEGO. Are they
better than the world famous toy, or just a knock off? Let’s see…

I came home to find my T1 line down… AGAIN (don’t get me started…). So instead of staring at the LEDs on the back of the router with tears in my eyes, I decided to do something more productive… like play Guitar Hero II ;o) It’s the only game I have for my Xbox 360
I have had a huge 65″ Mitsubishi RPTV (rear projection television) for several years now. I love having such a large screen, but having to pull it out when I need to connect various devices to the inputs on the back panel is a real chore. Then there’s the fact that this TV’s best input is DVI, of which there is only 1. When I recently saw XtremeMac’s XtremeHD 4 to 1 HDMI Switcher, I knew I had to get one for my home theater setup.
