Here are a few gadgets and goodies to get ya through the rest of the summer.
For those planning a vacation you'll want to make sure you take along this game system from Nintendo, the DS Lite. It's tiny, light, has this easy touch screen, which is perfect for all ages. Plus it's portable so it's perfect for long car rides or plane trips. And if you remember the hours spent playing Tetris, you're going to love their cool new game "Planet Puzzle League." You can play it on your own –or through Nintendo's Wi-Fi connection letting you battle it out with up to 4 players. It's addicting!
For those of us that can't seem to escape the office (or who just can't resist knowing what's going on when you're not there!) check out this great service called "GotoMyPC". Here's how it works… it allows you to remotely access your computer from any other computer in the world through a secure, private connection. It's super easy and actually kind of fun. You can be miles away but still able to see all your icons and files --So wherever you go, you can take the office with you. You'll be able to access your e-mail and files exactly as you left them. And something really cool that's new, it has remote sound and printing. It's just like being there. And check this out, if you go to their site and enter in the promo code " Cat" you can use the service for free for 45 days.
OMG! This is the most technologically advanced vacuum I've ever seen! With school out and the kids at home, I'm sure you'll start to see those floors in the house getting a bit dirtier than usual! So this bad boy is a quick fix. Available at Best Buy, the Electrolux Intensity features maximum suction power. In fact, Intensity has 50% more power than the leading upright vacuum. And, its compact size and collapsible handle make it easy to tote around the house for those quick cleaning jobs and then store away.
Being a mom I'm very protective of Jack's skin. This UV monitor from Oregon Scientific is a true lifesaver. You tell the device what type of skin you have, what type of screen you've applied, and hit start. The gadget will beep when it's time for you to take cover and re-later. At just under $30 you can't afford not to take one along.
I'm headed to NY next week for Digital Life. Stay tuned for the hot stuff from the show.
