N is for Wireless N adapter

Not strictly speaking the most useful thing in the world for everyone, but sometimes you got a wired connection and wish that shit was wireless.  Here is your solution Via IOGear.

If it doesn't mean anything to you move along, just flushing out weird old drafts and working this damn A-Z posting.

I am sure the implementation of this will be crap, but why does everyone just come out with reference designs now. It seems like everyone wants someone else to license and manufacture the products that they develop, rather than developing and manufacturing. The idea of having a smart picture frame that supports DLNA and has a touch screen interface to browse through your media in any room seems like a no brainer, but as far as I know this product has yet to be released.

Chumby One

The Chumby is a widget based smart object, and as much gadget lust as I generally tend to have this is one of those products I just cannot seem to get into. The replay on it seems relatively low for what it is, considering I can find iPod touches around that offer way more functionality for similar cost. The Chumby One is a little less offensive running at $120 rather than the $199 for the Chumby Classic. The Chumby Classic came wrapped in leather which made it more than a little weird, and I for one if very happy they dropped the leather for the Chumby One.
