Thursday, November 22nd, 2007If you’re like me you struggle with ideas for Xmas gifts so here’s a few suggestions that are practical and won’t break the bank!
| 1. Web Cam Ever wanted to see and speak to loved ones and friends on your computer? With a broadband connection and free software, you can do so at no additional cost. Grandchildren in America? Sister in Australia? This marvel of modern technology can bring people in different continents together! Here is a Web cam which is reasonably priced and compatible with Skype (Recommended): |
| 2. USB Flash Drive Here’s a device that has the same storage capacity as 711 floppy disk drives and fits conveniently in your pocket. Ideal for sharing large files such as photographs and videos with family and friends. They have proved so popular that many new computer systems don’t include a floppy drive anymore. |
| 3. USB Hub With the popularity of USB devices, many users find themselves running out of USB ports on their computer. This device solves the problem by turning 1 USB connection into 4. |
| 4. Blue Tooth Receiver Bluetooth is a wireless technology that allows your computer to “talk” to Bluetooth devices such as mobile phones and PDAs. It is increasing in popularity and can now be found in audio products, gaming systems and ever cars. It’s likely that your mobile phone already supports Bluetooth so plugging-in this Bluethtooth dongle would allow you to maintain your Contacts on your computer and then download them to your phone. This device has a range of 100m. |
| 5. USB Cup Warmer What do you give a person that has everything? A Cup warmer? Yes, you read it right. USB can actually provide enough power to keep a cup of tea warm! Cheers! |
