June 25, 2008
Now that house helps are into the biz of wiping off the very families they serve, security concerns are on the rise. With Zicom’s Video Door Phone, you may not be able to keep a check on the villains within but you can eliminate the danger of outsiders as well as pesky salespersons.
Components:
Indoor unit: Enables you to see and talk to whoever rings the doorbell, without opening the door.

Lights, Camera, Action
June 23, 2008
Clicked images make for good memories but nothing better than catching the action on tape. So whether you’re a long way from fast-moving action or just want that detailed close-up, Canon’s MD 245’s 37x optical zoom lens helps you get the perfect shot.
You can move even closer by switching on the video recorder’s 2000x digital zoom. Its Electronic Image Stabiliser reduces camera shake even when you’re at max zoom. It also has a wide range of shooting modes to add that edge to your videos. Start shooting now!
Wireless Connection
June 22, 2008
At home, we have two desktop computers and a laptop. Of course, it is more convenient to have a wireless internet connection at home so that I can use my laptop downstairs when I have work to do. It’s somewhat a hassle to be restricted by a cable attached to it like it used to when we were using a different router.
We planned to save up for it but good thing; my mother-in-law sent us a wireless router, NetGear, which they haven’t used in a while since they have a new one. My husband quickly connected it and voila! We went wireless and never looked back ever since.
It’s very convenient to do this instead because I can now work anywhere in the house with my laptop. With my job, sometimes I am tasked to handle webchat and answer email from customers, so this is really the way to go for me. But for some days that I take phone calls, I use my desktop computer.
For almost half a year now of using a wireless connection it has greatly improved my flexibility. I can do my work while waiting for dinner to cook, or to watch over my son while he’s playing. It’s great for multitasking. Even malls and restaurants here have wireless connection offered to their customers. More and more people are enjoying its benefits as they are still connected to the www wherever they go. Thanks heavens for wireless!
Sony Ericsson C905
June 22, 2008
I have always liked mobile phones manufactured by Sony Ericsson. I find the designs attractive and ergonomic. Add to these the durability of the phones. My K700 has been with me for a few years and it was working fine until I decided to sell it.
I checked the website of Sony Ericsson and browsed the latest phones that they offer. So far, what caught my attention was the C905 model. It’s equipped with a 8.1mp camera. This is really good because there’s no need for a separate digital camera especially for me. I just love taking pictures. Also, the phone is built-in with aGPS. Google Maps will help reach one’s destination. Aside from these, the phone also has Wi-Fi support. It just keeps getting better.
The more I read the specs and features of C905, the more I want to get my hands on one. Sad thing is, it’s not available yet in our region. I’ll definitely wait for this to hit the market. I’m sure it will cost me an arm and leg to own one but who knows, right? This is on top of my wish list and I’m so excited just thinking of the fun things I can do with this wonder gadget.

For now I will have to content myself with my old phone as it is still working but if given the chance, this is the dream phone for me.
Gadgets I Use
June 17, 2008
I am not a very techy person. I own gadgets too but most the time they are not the latest offered in the market.
For my cellphone, I have a N70 which I’ve been using for almost a year. I take pictures with it if I forget to bring my Sony DSC-S40 digital camera. This one has been with me for almost three years now. It still takes great pictures and is durable. It’s a bit bulky not like the ones we have now which are slimmer but I don’t intend to replace this one yet unless it’s a SLR.
I also have a Dell laptop which was issued to me by the company I work for. It’s been with me for more than a year and so far, it delivers. It’s lightweight and slim and it has an extended battery too so I can work for a few hours more even with the battery alone. No need to plug it while working.
Aside from these, we also have a Sony PSP Slim. My hubby bought it a few months ago and it’s a great company whenever we go out of town or just to while away time.
I’m thinking of upgrading my cellphone but I have to research first which cellphone will work for me best.
