This new MagicJack device isn’t completely new however. This device is known as a “femtocells.” The MagicJack uses the carrier’s licensed spectrum to connect to a phone, then route the calls over a home broadband connection.

What does this mean for you? Using this MagicJack device you’ll get free US calls while inside your house routed easily over the internet!

When someone travels as much as I do, lugging around a desktop, even a portable slim desktop would be a pain.  This is where a notebook like the 17.3″ Acer Aspire 7738 comes into play.  The screen is still large enough not to feel small like the 10.1  inch screen on my netbook.  Though it doesn’t have quad-core technology, 2.1 ghz duo core is still fast enough for most processes considering that it does still have the ddr3 technology built in.

For $700 the 17.3″ Acer Aspire 7738 is still a great deal and with the keyboard similar to the Mac Book Pro it’s easy enough to use without feeling cheap.

One reason to pick up a new reader like the Sony Daily Edition is the presence of free books like books from Robert Patterson, Joseph Finder’s “Paranoia” and even Keyes’ “The Briar King.”

This Robot Drean Cat Venus has plenty of applications, even for the elderly. It has been thought such a robot cat would make a perfect robotic companion for the eldery since it requires little up keep and can give an elderly person the feeling of some kind of companionship.

Will Dream Cat Venus type toys be the new standard for stuffed animals? Maybe we’ll have robot bears that can talk like in the movie A.I.?

It seems like a great way to make the internet more social, but at the same time more distracting. As if the internet wasn’t distracting enough, RocketOn aims to make the Internet even more distracting by turning each page into a virtual chat room.

If you watch the youtube you can see how RocketOn aims to change the way we surf the internet…

However if you don’t want to fork over the money to buy a Lazzara Yacht, but still want the Microsoft Surface, consider building your own.  The folks over at Eyebeam have a kit that will end up costing you between 500 to 1000 to build and is much cheaper than buying that yacht.

The Samsing Turbo 3000 Video

Reasons I chose the EEE PC 1000he. Two of the biggest factors were the size and the battery life. This thing fits in my small bag, about the size of a book and at the same time seems just large enough to do computing as normal. The keyboard seems easy to type on, especially now that they have redesigned it with the chicklet style keyboard.

Going into battery life, this laptop should last up to at least 9 hours on the most optimal settings. Even with wifi, microphone and webcam I still manage to get 6 and a half hours of charge. This is great for my flights across the Atlantic, allowing me to do the work I really need to, rather than just staring out the window wasting time. EEE PC 1000he gets a plus for productivity.

Now the negatives of the EEE PC 1000he
This pc is by no means a gaming machine. I’ve been able to watch 720p video without a problem, but when it comes to any newer games like Red Alert 3 for example, this pc is not going to do the game justice. Sure with software overclocking this pc can run at 1.8ghz speed, but it is not dual core, something that is required by most games these days.

The other thing is the screen size. It took awhile to get used to seeing less of the screen, but what do you expect with a ten inch widescreen. If you want a netbook, you are going to get portable internet browsing, basic applications, but anything major and you are better off getting something full size.

I recently ordered the eee PC 1000he which is due to arrive any minute. I ordered it on Tuesday and here it is on Thursday. It seems almost better than driving to the store, plus no taxes (at least that’s how it works in the USA).

Amazon.com is located over in the city of Fernley, NV, right outside Reno where they do all their shipping. I’m sure if you live in Fernley, same day shipping is a reality, but for those of us out in the outer reaches of the United States, 2 day shipping is all but ideal. Want one day shipping? Pay just 3.99.

At some point maybe we won’t be even leaving our house. It’s getting to that point where I order almost everything from computer, whether it’s delivered pizza, my groceries, or just that new laptop computer. Going out shopping is more of a window shopping, social activity for me more than anything else.

Other significant improvements to the 1000 series Eee Pc includes a better keyboard layout by improving the placement of the shift key and better spacing out the keys.

Time to buy a netbook?  I’d been seriously considering an ASUS Eee Pc for quite sometime now, but the biggest factor that kept me from making the leap is the lack of graphics, meaning running anything close to blueray would be next to impossible.

Consider waiting for the new NVIDIA Ion graphics chip set to release in the first half of this year.   Nvidia claims its one chipset paired with Intel’s Atom laptop chip delivers 10 times the speed of current Intel-only netbooks.  This means being able to run a bit more graphics intensive programs.
