Super squishy Super Kool keyboard

Is it a keyboard or a fruit roll-up? I love the squishy design of the Super Kool keyboard from Newton’s Universe. The folding keyboard, for use with your notebook or PC, is made of silicone, so it’s flexible and water-resistant. Looks like you could toss this thing into a bag without having to worry about damaging it. The portable keyboard hooks up via USB port, and is even compatible with Sony PS/2.

I like the idea of not having those little spaces between keys that pick up grime, goo, and who knows what else. Coming from someone who’s buried a laptop thanks to a soda spill, I’m pleased to have found a notebook keyboard that just might hold up to my Diet Coke habit. The Super Kool keyboard retails for $39.99 at Newton’s Universe.

Sometimes finding a reliable and sensitive cordless mouse for gaming or graphics is a difficult task. This one by Logitech is one I’d like to try. The Laser V450 cordless mouse offers laser tracking via a 2 laser system, which is ideal when precision is important. Logitech has prevented lagging and connection problems with 2.4GHz of power in this cordless mouse. In addition, the Logitech Laser V450 cordless mouse comes with Logitech’s trademarked Tilt Wheel Plus Zoom technology. This feature allows users to scroll from side to side, up and down and zoom in and out. The battery in this cordless mouse will last for about a year, it has an on/off switch for conserving power, and an ergonomic grip.

HP Photosmart A826 Photo Center

I have to admit I’m jealous on this one. Since bragging about my Kodak G10 printer a few days ago, I’ve discovered the HP Photosmart A826 Photo Center. It seems that when HP named the A826 a “Photo Center” they were not kidding. This thing has a lot of options for digital photography buffs. The HP Photosmart A826 features a 7 inch touch screen, and will print wallet size, 4X6, 5X7 and even panoramic digital photos. This HP photo printer also allows users to add captions and images to their photos by drawing them with the included stylus or using the touch screen keyboard. You can store up to 100 sheets of photo paper in the printer’s internal storage tray. The A826 photo printer also has a special effects menu for enhancing photos for scrapbooking and greeting cards. Photos come out of the printer already dry. Simply insert your memory card and you’ll be off and running with the HP Photosmart A826 Photo Center.
