Apple's Ipad

According to an article in PC World Online edition, Apple's new Ipad is being compared more to an over sized iPod Touch or iPhone rather than a downsized Mac. This may be due to the popularity both of these gadgets are already seeing in the marketplace today. The main advantage of this would be that the iPad would have a larger screen for things like surfing the web, watching videos and reading e-books. Industry insiders suggest the iPad could give major competition to established devices such as the Kindle. At the time of the article no suggested retail price was given for the iPad. An image to compare the iPad to existing Apple devices is available at http://www.apple.com/ipad/

AirMouse

The article located at: http://www.gizmag.com/airmouse-wearable-mouse/13993/ is about a new invention that promises to help the stresses of repetitive mouse use. The AirMouse, is it is known, is a revolutionary new mouse you wear like a glove. The AirMouse came as a result of one of the production company's founders getting a repetitive stress injury and trying an ergonomic mouse that wasn't quite so ergonomic. The AirMouse has a simple concept. It aligns naturally with your hand. It won't work until you lay your hand flat and allows for seamless transition between typing and scrolling. The AirMouse is slated to hit store shelves within 6 to 12 months at a price of $129.
