More and more people are relying on portable media devices for everyday instead of desktop PCs, meaning that they have to rely on the tiny keyboards that are part of the interface of their PDA or cellphone. A standard computer keyboard would not be a practical accessory, no matter how much faster correspondence would become, but the Projector Keyboard can solve that problem. The keyboard is about the size of a small cellphone itself and projects a standard keyboard onto any flat surface, from the table at the coffee shop to a sidewalk at the park. It connects to your phone/PDA/laptop via Bluetooth and "watches" your fingers, transmitting the data back to the device you have it connected to. The red outline is visible even in bright lighting conditions and a charge allows for two hours of typing time. Price: £119 ($221).
It looks like the new luxury vacation might be one where they take away your little luxuries. At least, they'll take away things like your BlackBerry, which you might have considered to be a luxury item before you were answering e-mails 22 hours each day. Some hotels have instituted programs that allow guests to put their BlackBerries - sometimes dubbed "CrackBerries" for their addictive nature - into storage for the duration of their stay, thus ensuring that you have a chance to relax on your relaxing vacation.
Hotels like the Sheraton Chicago offer no charge for the service, though peace and quiet might actually be worth paying for.
If you have ever stood in the wine store and tried to
remember if you have tried a certain wine before and liked it, the new MemWine™
service can help. It's a personal wine database that can be updated via your cell phone. The database can be used on
the phone or on the Internet and lets you enter details such as rating, price and tasting notes. The website is devoid
of bells and whistles so that it is easier to access via a handheld such as a a Treo or Blackberry. The free
service currently has a member-driven database of over 12,000 labels. You can also create a personal wines to try and
wines tasted lists.
