If you are like me, the bugs and creepy things in the summer is the absolute worst part of the season, and the only bad part as far as I am concerned. But as I live in the country, this is one battle I have to muddle through and “wing it” as each pest arrives. With summer having arrived, it is time to start the annual battle with pesky insects as well as other creepy crawlies who love to do nothing better than irritate you out of your skin by their mere presence in and around your home. Apart from keeping a huge collection of anteaters as well as spiders to capture those winged nemesis of yours, why not consider the Insect Repeller instead? This one is a godsent as far as I am concerned.
Insect Repeller is a small handheld environmentally-friendly gadget that plugs into any main socket and emits an advanced high power variable ultrasonic wave and an electromagnetic wave to ward off unwanted pests and protect you and your home. Inaudible to humans and harmless to your pet cat and dog, the ultra sonic pest repeller consumes very little power and outdates messy traps and chemically-laden sprays. Once plugged in and switched on this 2-in-1 insect and rodent repeller protects 250 square meters, which is roughly the size of the average three bedroom home, giving you a healthy amount of breathing space between you and world’s critters. This is ingenious to me, and is $13 bucks well spent, many times over, if you too get the willies from creepy crawly things.

With the advent of technology when it comes to flat screen displays, you may be pleased to find out that the innovation curve has not ended just yet. Granted, a name like Majestic Mirror and Frame might not be recognized among consumers as a company that produces flat panel displays, but those in the know will realize that this is a leader in framed and back lit mirrors for the hospitality industry. Imagine having Majestic Mirror and Frame work together with ToteVision, the industry’s premier manufacturer of small screen, commercial-grade LCD TVs and monitors, resulting in a spanking new Mirrored TV solution specially meant for the hospitality market.
This new product line can be found in virtually any shape or size, specifically manufactured to the tune of their customer’s song. It will feature best-in-class mirror components alongside the state of the art LCD TV technology to a superior Mirrored TV experience in the hospitality industry without burning huge holes in a company’s budget. Majestic’s Mirrored TVs will come in two standard design variations, where the first is a seamless vanishing mirror while the other will be a slightly seamed vanishing mirror with reflective mirror plating. Both models are fully customizable, being able to take on virtually any workable shape or size, leveraging plenty on its low-profile design depth that measures approximately 1.5″.
Installation is also a no-brainer, taking mere minutes to install, which will further reduce labor costs by a rather significant amount especially when you’re a hotel with thousands of rooms that will be upgraded with this. If you are wondering yourself where you can take advantage of this technology, you will find the Magic Mirror with the world’s leading hospitality franchises including Marriott, Starwood, Hyatt, Ritz Carlton, Hilton, Sheraton and many more.

Garmin is a household name when it comes to GPS navigation devices, and today they have yet another two models available to the masses - the Oregon 550 and Oregon 550t. Both of these devices will be touchscreen enabled, where they will also be accompanied by a 3.2 megapixel digital camera that will help you snap memorable shots wherever you go just in case you forgot to pack your dedicated digital camera with you. In addition, this mode also enables you to create geotagged images on the spot. Another interesting feature is the 3-axis compass that will accompany the the popular series of intuitive touchscreen handhelds. Not only do the Garmin Oregon 550
and Garmin Oregon 550
get you places, it boasts a waterproof case so that you can still find your way around even though it is raining.
The 3.2 megapixel autofocus digital camera you get is also equipped with a 4x digital zoom, and the device itself is also equipped with 850MB of internal memory, which is more than enough space for you to store all your photos as well as locations. These images can then be downloaded onto a computer or external storage device later on, where they can be printed or stored and shared online. Transferring images is a no brainer - make sure your Oregon 550 is connected via USB, where you can use the my.Garmin.com site to detect Oregon’s photos. This site will help simplify the selection and uploading processes, subsequently storing the selected photos on Picasa for friends and family with an Internet connection to view them.
I also like the inclusion of a 3″ sunlight-readable touchscreen that is found on both the Oregon 550 and Oregon 550t, where the latter boasts the added advantage of pre-loaded 100K topo maps for the entire U.S. in state-of-the-art 3D elevation perspective. Garmin has good reason for including the 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, as it is still able to display your heading even when you’re stationary. The Garmin Oregon 550 and Garmin Oregon 550t will retail for $499.99 and $599.99, respectively.

TriGem USA has just made available yet another player in the already crowded notebook market - the Averatec N2700. This new mobile computing device will not skimp when it comes to features, and TriGem USA has made an extremely attractive offer for it which we’ll look at in closer detail at the end of the post. For the moment, let’s take a look at what the Averatec
N2700 has to offer, shall we?
For starters, this model will feature an Intel dual-core processor running at 2GHz, a 250GB hard drive and an 8x super multi DVD optical drive, all running on Microsoft Vista Home Premium. There doesn’t seem to be too much in terms of selling features that this Netbook can’t offer, and is pretty sweet on all of the things you are looking for in terms of price, portability, and performance as well. It’s larger and more powerful than a typical netbook computer and offers great portability over notebooks sporting 13-inch screens and larger. One certainly cannot deny that, since it is much beefier compared to a standard netbook, and yet it won’t break the bank with the relatively affordable $699 price point, where we’ve seen some higher end netbooks in the past retailing for approximately that price and yet lack the processing muscle to boot up Internet Explorer 8 in a fast and seamless manner.
There is one drawback that the Averatec N2700 (and any other standard notebook for that matter) is unable to compete in – the size of the netbook will always win out, at least for the moment. Other features of the N2700 includes a whopping 4GB RAM, integrated 802.11b/g wireless connectivity along with 10/100/1000 Mb/s wired networking. You will also benefit from a trio of USB 2.0 ports, while a FireWire port is there for folks to transfer their large multimedia files from devices such as camcorders over at a much faster rate compared to USB 2.0. Don’t expect this to be a head turner though, but it does look like it offers a whole lot of bang for your buck.
