Foldaway kitchen scale for mom chefs

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

This is the mother of all scales — the brand-new Tanita KD400 at Competitive Edge which features a stain-resistant steel plate and an add and weigh feature. Best of all, it completely folds up for easy storage. Mine is discreetly standing up with my cookbooks.

The eye-pleasing compact digital lithium scale is only $60 at fine cooking stores and Competitive Edge. Backed by Tanita’s three year warranty, the KD-400 is designed to live up to abuse from the toughest cooks, or, in my case, munchkins who are just learning to measure. (A frog weighs just over 3 ounces, just so you know.)

Verizon’s BlackBerry Curve 8330 now available

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

The release had been confirmed for May 9, however Verizon must have been feeling a little generous since they have added the blackberry Curve 8330 a few days ahead of schedule.

The Curve is retailing for $219.99, which comes after a $100 online discount, along with a two-year agreement. The Curve was also scheduled to arrive on retail locations as of May 12, no confirmation yet on if Verizon released it in stores early also. Now lets just hope Sprint will finally launch their Curve.

Canada is getting the Zune, beginning June 13

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Well it only took about 18 months but the Zune is finally making its way into Canada. Beginning June 13 Canadians will be able to grab the Zune of their choosing. Well, except for a few small details, namely the lineup is not quite as complete as it is here in the US.

There will not be any 30GB model or green models. Do our friendly neighbors to the north have something against green? Anyway, up for grabs will be the Zune 80 in black or red for $249.99, the Zune 8 in black, red or pink for $189.99 and the Zune 4 in black, red or pink for $139.99.

The Stress Eraser: Real or Fake?

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

When it comes to the type of products that are suppose to be stress-free, I have my doubts that they really work. By looking at the description of the StressEraser, my guesses are probably right.

The working method couldn’t be much easier: stick your finger on the StressEraser for 15 minutes per day, for 2 weeks - afterwards you’re expected to feel more calmer, patient, and energetic. In case you feel the stress coming up during any time of the day, just use the Eraser once again.

Believe it or not, this device won a Frost & Sullivan’s 2006 Medical Industry Award.

Priced at 150.

The StressEraser focuses your mind and guides your breathing to synchronize with a calming BreathWav pattern.

Oversized Deluxe Zero-Gravity Recliner

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

While the Sumo Air Good Vibrations Chair looked spectacular, this Zero-Gravity Recliner looks even better. The best part is the price when comparing to the Sumo Air, it is much cheaper with a price tag of 92.

According to Sharper Image, the Deluxe Recliner has some kind of relation to NASA and its Z shape, that provides the zero-gravity sensation. There are more than 15 angles you can pick, so getting the best position possible and enjoying the experience will be an easy thing to do.

The headrest can either be removed, or used as a pillow for the lumbar area. To make things more interesting, the recliner can be folded with ease which makes it portable.

Armrests are now sculpted of genuine hardwood for superior comfort.

Microsoft Forefront brings some humor to security

Thursday, May 8th, 2008


If you like the color orange and like to see IT geeks beating up on zombies, secret agents, ninjas and aliens, head on over the Forefront site.  There you’ll find a free public beta download of the integrated security software that was released quietly last month.

Code-named “Stirling”, this public beta secures clients, server and networks.  “Our goal with Stirling is an integrated client, server and network edge, all managed through a simple intuitive console,” said Ryan Hamlin, GM of Microsoft’s Access and Security Division.

Microsoft touts the beta as comprehensive, integrated and simplified.  The site works hard to demonstrate “normal” IT employees defending their systems.  Kinda cute and clever; with funky music to boot.

Microsoft expect the full bells and whisltes version to be released in the first half of next year.
