EZ Commander Trackball Remote

The EZ Commander Trackball Remote is here to help make your life easier in the living room, especially when you have a home theater PC setup running.

Rather than control your stereo system the EZ Commander Trackball Remote acts as a wireless keyboard and mouse replacement for your PC. Perfect for use with a media center PC or running a presentation from your laptop. The included IR receiver plugs in to a USB port and gives you full control up to 30 feet away. Use the keys to execute common PC functions or control your audio and video files with the “media center” mode which supports Windows Media Center. The trackball works just like a mouse. Push down on the ball to left click, or use the buttons above the trackball for right or left clicks. You can even type simple text using a T9 input method similar to texting on your cellphone. The included laser pointer lets you gesture at those all important PowerPoint slides.

ThinkGeek is currently carrying it for $79.99, so get it while it is hot.

DigitalRise M600i GSM Phone Watch

Another day, another GSM phone that comes in the form of a watch. This time, we have the M600i to tickle our fancy, being unlocked and ready to hit the airwaves in Australia and Europe.

This M600i watch mobile phone comes with features like a built-in 1.3 megapixel camera, touchscreen hand writing messaging, MP3/MP4 player, Video recording, Bluetooth connectivity, and an Internet browser. Its support of extensible microSD memory cards makes it extremely attractive for your next phone choice. This Dual band 900/1800MHZ mobile phone can be used for worldwide except North America. Call your cell phone service provider to confirm.

It retails for AU$340, and you ought to use this with a Bluetooth headset of some sort since you would look (and sound) rather daft, carrying out a conversation where everyone else around you will be able to hear.

Super-Slim USB Mouse is too slim for my taste

Have you ever thought that your mouse was just too large to use comfortably? Perhaps if you sliced it down the middle it would be the perfect size. Honestly, I can’t say that I’ve ever had such a thought cross my mind. Rather there have been some mice which I thought were almost too slim for my tastes. If you’re very much unlike myself, you might enjoy this Super-Slim USB mouse.

This mouse measures only .94 inches wide, which is really thin. I dug out one of my old plain-Jane Logitech mice and measured it for reference, and it came up at just over two inches, making this mouse less than half the width of an ordinary mouse. Mind you that you don’t get your buttons cut in half, as the single button functions as two. The front is a left click, while the rear is a right. Some might say this is a good mouse for taking on the road, however, there are much better ones on the market for just that. On the bright side, you won’t break the bank with this $11 mouse.

Wood Guitars for Guitar Hero

Guitar Hero has become a very popular game recently with many people trying to rock away to their favourite music. A company named Peavey customshop is creating some great controllers for the game in the shape of real wood guitars. Each guitar is hand made and painted and the images are embedded under a protective coating to help protect the guitars from scratches. The guitars help to bring you one step closer to the real thing by giving you the look and feel of a real wood guitar.

You have a couple of choices when having a guitar made from ready made guitars which feature Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Kiss to name a few. The other option is to use your own custom logo to be painted on the guitar.

Each guitar costs $399 and is available from Peavey Customshop.

Gadget Display shows you important info about your PC

There are many different things about your computer that are good to keep an eye on, especially if you’re one that enjoys pushing your PC to the limit. I tend to push my PC pretty hard, which means I need to keep an eye on the temperatures at all times. There are generally two options here: keep a software monitor running on desktop taking up valuable screen space, or you can have an LCD monitor installed on the front of your computer. Neither one is all that appealing to me, which is why I’m intrigued by this Gadget Display.

This little gadget is a 2-inch color LCD screen which connects to your PC via USB. You can set this anywhere, likely near your monitor somewhere. It can display dozens of different things ranging from a clock, CPU and RAM usage. We don’t have a lot of information on this little gadget, however, there is likely a way to get this to display other things such as your CPU or motherboard temperature.

11 Button Multimedia mouse does more than just click

How many buttons does your mouse have? Many people would say three, while plenty of others might say five. However, if you were using this next mouse, you’d proudly answer with 11. I can understand using a few extra buttons when gaming, or even for multimedia purposes, however, this 11 Button Multimedia Mouse just seems like overkill.

It looks like there are buttons for volume, play/pause, page forward, page backward, internet and even double-click. I’ve really never found it all that difficult to click on the Firefox icon, but I guess it would save you around a second or so of hard work. However, I can’t possibly understand why someone would need a button to double click for them. You’d think it would take more time and effort to train yourself to press the double click button than just click the left mouse button twice. If you need more buttons on your mouse than your keyboard, you can pick this one up for just $14.99.
