PakPak Waterproof Wallet
Jun 29, 2008
My rating
My review
This is a great invention and I recommend it for anyone that is nervous about leaving values on the beach/boat. It claims to be waterproof to 50 meters, and indestructable. I've personally tested it to about 8 meters during a 30 minute scuba diving excursion, and many much longer snokeling adventures.
It does not hold big items, but for keys, credit cards, licenses, and money, it holds all you need to function.

Very clever, and very funny. It's like two funny shows in one: a song parody show, and a sitcom about two New Zealanders trying to make it big in the Big Apple with some off-the-wall characters leading to some very funny dialogs.

Tascam Mp GT1 Portable MP3 Guitar Trainer
Dec 11, 2007
My rating
My review
This is a really neat product. Download mp3s to it, plug in headphones and a guitar, then you can play along to the mp3s. Big deal you might say, but it allows you to slowdown the music for practicing, set begin and end points and loop over a particular section, cancel the existing guitar sounds, built-in effects, a metronome, a guitar tuner. Feature loaded, super-useful, exactly what wanted it to be.

Bought this based on recommendations through Pronto and am very happy with it. Big, bright clear, and Apple does agreat job making it easy to hook up, configure and use (assuming you plug this into a mac of course).

Dimension Engineering AnyVolt Micro

My review
This is a really useful product, though maybe a tad on the pricey side. Still, it works very well to reduce the power consumption when stepping down voltages, which is very useful for battery-powered applications. A 7805 just wastes too much (and gets too hot). A 78L05 is slightly better, but still wastes too much energy in heat.

Excellent book about the basics of everyday manipulation that people encounter. Well done as the author does not pretend to be above influence, and in fact uses his suseptibility of it to show just how powerful the 'tricks' are.

Linksys WRTSL54GS Wireless Router

My review
Greatest thing about this router is that you can put GNU/Linux on it, and it has a USB port. It has twice as much RAM and ROM as the lower end WRT54G models (not to mention the latest WRT54G is a step backward from previous ones).

I like this for its simplicity and completeness. Has the words and chords to all songs in a semi-simple format in a book that doesn't weigh 8 lbs
