A Good Read for the Tech Lover

Well it may not technically be a gadget, it is a book about how gadgets have changed the world we live in. Larry Page and Sergey Brin founded Google in a Silicon Valley garage 11 years ago with ambitions of changing the world.
Did they succeed? In the opinion of the author, absolutely only that isn’t exactly cause for celebration. Googled: The End of the World As We Know It by Ken Auletta covers a lot of Google's intensifying battles with the media, privacy watchdogs and antitrust regulators worried about the company's ever-expanding power.

As interesting as fearing the company is, we seem to recall several of the same arguments being made about Microsoft a few years ago. Bill Gates became heavily involved in charity and the hoopla seemed to quiet down. Perhaps Larry Page and Sergey Brin need to follow in Bill’s footsteps.

It does make a great gift for the tech junkie on your list though and goes for $16.34 at Amazon.

Cooking on the Road

People and lawmakers complain that drivers don’t need additional distractions from the task at hand and hence love to crack down on talking on the phone, texting, or even putting a cell near one’s head. As such, as hard as it is top believe, one company believes there will be a market for those individuals who wish to make a grilled cheese sandwich on their way to work.

There are no laws on the books about driving and cooking sandwiches so why not? The Road Pro 12-Volt Sandwich Maker let’s anyone with a car become a quick-order chef. The unit plugs directly into the cigarette lighter socket, features non-stick cooking plates, has a 5-foot power cord & a 90-day manufacturers warranty. Best of it all it goes for only $20.

And to think, a few years ago it was suggested that listening to the radio while driving was too dangerous to consider!

Here's one of several online retailers hoping the Road Pro will appeal to the driver on your shopping list this holiday season.

Hitachi Offers 2TB Version of its SimpleDrive


Hitachi realizes that there’s no such thing as too much storage space when it comes to external hard drives. The firm has just introduced a 2TB (terabyte) edition of its popular external SimpleDrive, and it also announced that all of its 3.5-inch retail drives are now available in 2TB capacities.

Known for their small form factor and high-speed USB 2.0 connectivity, the SimpleDrive has been a top seller for Hitachi since its introduction. This, the third-generation external storage solution is loaded with 2TBs of simple, reliable storage and backup options for both consumer and business users. It features four interface options: USB 2.0, FireWire 400, FireWire 800, and 3Gb/sec eSATA

The Hitachi SimpleDrive is available in 500GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities, with an MSRP of $99.99, $129.99 and $249.99, respectively.

Hikari to Release Google Android Tablet

Aside from the obvious iPhone – inspired name, Japanese firm Hikari is set to release a new tablet PC running Google’s Android operating system.

Calling it the iFrame, this unit is set to feature a 7-inch touchscreen display, SD memory card slot, and WiFi capabilities (802.11 b/g/n). Other goodies look like internal alarm clock functions, 3G wireless capabilities, and a handy USB port.

It is due out in Japan sometime within the upcoming year for somewhere around a very reasonable $220 to $330. While official word of a stateside release has yet to be announced, insiders are optimistic that the unit will eventually be exported to the US.
