Mention ViewSonic and most of the time you would probably think about LCD monitors, but this time round they have released two devices for the masses - the smallest DLP projector from the company to date known as the PJD2121, while the WPG-350 wireless presentation gateway offers a solution for meeting rooms that won’t break the company budget. These devices are able to offer decent performance and capabilities despite their small size, making them suitable for those who do not want to be limited by projection technology in their line of work.
Let’s take a look at the ViewSonic PJD2121
first - the smallest short throw DLP pico projector from the company that tips the scales at just 2.2 pounds. This advanced device will come with integrated BrillantColor technology that is able to deliver 400 lumens of brightness, where your images are thrown at 800 x 600 SVGA native resolution, easily placing it as one of the brightest projectors available in its class. Contrast ratio for a pico projector is also pretty respectable at 1,800:1, where this combination ought to be enough to handle situations in virtually any lighting environment. It comes with a short 1:1 throw ratio that makes it perfect for tabletop personal use or for small meeting rooms, and can display images of up to 60″ from as near as just four feet away. The ‘Off to Go’ function also enables one to power the PDJ2121 automatically without having to worry about the lamp overheating due to insufficient cooling time. This filter-less design offers easy maintenance and a lower total cost of ownership, while it comes with a Kensington security lock port for added peace of mind. Each $500 purchase comes with a three-year limited parts and labor warranty, although the lamp stands at just one year.
As for the WPG-350 wireless presentation gateway, this device offers wireless capability to any compatible projector, LCD TV or large screen display without having the need to fork out a large amount of money for an embedded wireless projector. It is able to support 1,024 x 768 resolution and full-motion video up to 1080p, featuring 802.11b/g/n hi-speed wireless connectivity. Interested parties can pick up the WPG-350 wireless presentation gateway for only $199. For the business worker on the go, both affordable AND convenient.

Yes, it seems the good folks at Verizon are stepping it up a notch. The Verizon Wireless network will be offering a new notebook for the masses that is much tougher than your average model, and we suspect even able to withstand environments where the normal nerd would faint by then. But this time it’s the Panasonic Toughbook H1 mobile clinical assistant (MCA) that has recently received Gobi certification for use on the Verizon Wireless network. Due to its relatively tiny form factor, extremely light chassis and a reasonable bunch of built-in specifications and features, the Panasonic Toughbook H1 
ends up being a rather attractive solution for those who are knee deep in mobile healthcare environments such as EMS, mobile blood banks and home health workers.
Not only that, healthcare professionals who tend to do plenty of traveling between offices, patient homes and hospitals will realize just what a handy tool the Verizon Wireless’ Mobile Broadband is when used in conjunction with the Toughbook H1, allowing one to reduce down time while increasing overall productivity despite being physically removed from traditional healthcare facilities. The Toughbook H1, being in the healthcare line, has naturally been built for easy disinfection after each rigorous day at work, helping lower the risk of germs being spread from patient to patient. Not only that, it will go some ways in reducing medication administration errors while helping clinicians deliver faster, safer care. Features of the Panasonic Toughbook H1 include an integrated RFID reader, a 2.0-megapixel auto-focus camera with dual LED lights, a barcode reader, contactless smart card reader and fingerprint readers. Glad to know that Panasonic has not restricted the release and sale of the Toughbook H1 to selected parts of the world since it is available worldwide. Pricing might differ depending on the region where you’re currently living in, although folks in the US can pick up the base H1 model for approximately $3000. It ain’t cheap, that’s for sure, but this is another case where you WILL get what you pay for.

Is the Road Refresher Dog Bowl an ingenious invention or what? After all, any dog owner would notice that their beloved four legged friend often drinks in a rather unrefined manner, lapping water up while splashing a fair bit all over the place. This dog bowl was specially designed for those who always bring their dogs with them when traveling, as it claims to reduce doggie slobber by up to 90%. Even Barack Obama has gotten one for the presidential pooch, showing the world how gullible he is - I mean, just how effective the Road Refresher Dog Bowl is.
The Road Refresher encourages tidy drinking by limiting the amount of water dogs can lap up at any one time. A floating plate inside the bowl automatically feeds through enough water for Fido to drink, but immediately restricts the flow when there is a surge from cornering, braking, kicking, tripping and so on. The ingenious design even keeps long ears and beards out of the water (the dog’s, not yours). Ideal for long journeys, this easy-to-clean piece of toughened polypropylene genius will soon become the dog bowl of choice for anyone who wants to reduce slobber, in car and around the house. It’s even got a velcro base and additional fixing pads to ensure it stays put on carpets and kitchen floors. You can pick it up for less than $20, or even cheaper if you want a smaller version. And though dogs may be color blind, if you like to spice up your pooch’s accessories, there’s a bunch of color options as well.
