It’s a way to safeguard your computer while you're away from your desk with the biometric fingertip identification reader built right in. Fellowes Secure Touch Optical is said to be mini sized & that the fingerprint authenticator functions at over 99% accuracy rate.
It eliminates the need to remember passwords and provides protection against unauthorized use of your PC. Fellowes bundled the mouse with the OmniPass Security Software for managing fingerprint recognition access to your PC or notebook. The software includes a wizard that guides you through creating an identification profile. The software's Single Touch Log-On feature lets you perform startup and Windows authentication with the touch of your finger. Suggested retail was $99, but you can find it for about $80 if you do a web search (Amazon).

Check out the Pinnacle Video Transfer (PVT). This is the one of the easiest ways to record video. On the bottom end of the PVT just connect the DC power and a USB flash drive. The other end of the unit has the video connections. The LED’s are also positioned above each of the video/audio inputs and the USB port. When the unit is turned on, the blue LED’s let you know the unit “sees” audio & video and the USB drive. The composite A/V cable comes w/ the PVT, but you have to supply your own S-video cable. After connecting the cables and plugging in a USB storage device, turn the device on by pressing the “Mode” button. When all the LED’s have turned blue, select the recording quality. Then hit the REC button. All the LED’s then turn red to confirm that you’re recording.
Note: There’s a warning not to remove the USB drive until its LED turns blue. When you search the drive on your computer, the recordings will be in the Video directory. Each video is numbered according to the sequence in which it was recorded, but you can easily change the file name yourself. The PVT can record directly to most iPods and the PSP as well. The PVT can be found on Amazon and bought for about $110 to $120.00.

I came across the Belkin Mini Surge Protector with USB Charger & had to share it! Hotel rooms and airport terminals never seem to have enough power outlets to plug in & charge all the devices us (cool) techie types bring along when we travel. Thanks to this new gadget you can now you can add 3 AC outlets, two USB charging ports, and peace of mind on business trips and vacations with the Belkin Mini Surge Protector. It has a rotating plug so you can face the device in the direction that is most convenient. And there’s a green LED to let you know the surge protection is on. It even comes with a full size to mini USB charging cable!

Think Geek has released LED Blow On-Off Candles. Under $15 these cool high tech candles are solid wax, except for the electronics (of course). There are two new things about these LED candles. You can blow them out, AND these LED candles will also blow on! Major! Plus, each candle has a switch to select either a cool blue flame, or a more realistic yellowish flame. Great to use where it is too dangerous to have open flames. You can find these candles on thinkgeek.com or Amazon.com
Cool Shopping.
