PicooZ RC Helicopter
Every year, there are a handful of toys that end up on the holiday gift wish lists of kids all over the country. I can remember 5 years ago when it was the Bit Char-G / Microsizer tiny remote controlled cars. Even my Dad stood in line at Radio Shack to get one (for himself!). This year one of the popular toys is again a remote controlled device. But this time it is not a car… it’s a tiny helicopter called the PicooZ.

Shots and Glyphs
I had another “this is why I love my PDA” moments today… I had a doctor’s appointment to get a cortizone shot in my shoulder. Shots don’t usually bother me, but just the thoughts of having one in a joint was making me a bit nervous. Lucky for me, my hour wait to get into

Car Tunes
Happy Monday gadgeteers! :o) I need some car stereo advice. I want to replace the stock head unit in my 2006 Mazda 3 and don’t know which way to turn. I don’t care about DVD or navigation features, but the top of my wish list includes iPod integration and XM radio capability. A USB port
HTC TyTN Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Phone
Are you the type of person that wants a great PDA that happens to also have a good phone built into it? Or would you rather have a great phone that just happens to also function as a good PDA? That’s almost always the question you have to ask yourself when you’re in the market for a smartphone. It seems that no matter which brand of phone/PDA that you look at, you can’t find a device that is both an excellent PDA and an excellent phone. Trade offs, gotta luv em…

Apple iPod shuffle (2nd gen)
Step right up folks, it’s the incredible shrinking iPod! The new Apple iPod shuffle makes their first generation shuffle look absolutely huge in comparison. Their slogan of “Put some music on” is fitting as this new shuffle has a built-in clip that you can use to fasten to your shirt, coat, gear bag, jeans, etc. Is this the end all be all mini DAP (digital audio player)? Let me tell you more about it and we can decide.

USB Missile Launcher and USB Circus Cannon
A short time ago my wife Meredyth, a more sedate guest contributor, showed me these two devices from Brando USB, and asked me if I’d like to do a review on them. As a serious fan of non-serious office toys, I was delighted. “What do I have to do?” I asked. “Play with them a lot, then do some writing,” she replied. Never being one to turn down a chance to do something extremely silly, I accepted the offer, brought them into my lab, and got down to the important business of having fun.
