Infinity and JBL, both subsidiaries of Harman International, have both announced sets of wireless speakers, finally cutting the metaphorical umbilical cord. A 2.4 GHz transmitter allows for crystal clear sound with no annoying wires hanging all over the place, which would other wise cause an eyesore in the design of your home.
They both claim to offer “interference-free” transmissions. While this claim remains unconfirmed, the four-channeled speakers might catch some waves from other gadgets in close proximity, The Infinity PS212W will feature a 12-inch sub blasting 400 watts of tunes to your ears. The JBL CSS10W is a bit smaller, coming in with a 10-inch sub and has a little less power behind with only 300 watts. They are available for $679 and $599 respectively.

Every major company seems to have their own power cord adapter design. We prefer the non-frill standard, but some need to add clunky plugs, whether it be for a unique touch or for technical needs. The problem with this is that some of these plugs just don’t fit with each other. You can spend many hours just trying to figure out how to configure your room to allow all of your electronics to be powered.
This Rotating Wall Power Outlet allows the outlet to be turned every which way to make room for the clunkier of adapters. Moving on a 360 degree axis, the Rotating Wall Adapter has 18 different positions that click into place, allowing for optimal plug-in placement, no matter where the location or what other plugs are already housed there. Available for $9.99 in your choice of Ivory and White.

Hey, someone pointed this Russian Review to us and because it’s really slow to decipher Russian reviews for most readers, here’s what they basically say:
The Asus Eee PC 701 (specifications here) is just good for basic productivity applications, such as email, word-processing and web-browsing (phew, that a good news) but that the storage was too small. The LCD display is too small, even relative to the laptop’s frame and that affects the design badly. Battery life can last from 2.5hrs to a lot more (a “full day”), if using the power savings settings (probably makes it even slower – yikes). But overall, that’s what one should expect for wanting an ultra-portable that also very cheap.
Our Russian friends were very disappointed by the price: 12000 roubles or about $500. It was originally thought that the device would cost only $250.
Thanks Alex S.!
