Finally, someone is figuring out that if you want a PC in your home theater, you’ll be needing a decent, hardware keyboard. Here’s one of the best ideas yet, and it looks a whole lot like a Blackberry: It’s a wireless USB keyboard and touchpad that might be just what you need.
We like its backlit keyboard and radio-frequency (RF) operation, using the 2.4GHz band, so you don’t have to worry about pointing the device directly at the receiver. While this little handset looks kind of cheap, it’s more portable than a standard-sized keyboard, and its touchpad takes the place of a bulky mouse. If you look at the white one in the gallery below, it actually doesn’t look half bad.
This is a heck of a sight better than those horrendous on-screen keyboards that you navigate with a remote control. Think about it — how many button presses does it take to spell your name? About 50? It’s absurd. Drop $61 on this tiny keyboard, and solve that problem once and for all. Here’s a video of the device in action:
Just like the first model released by this company, the new Pogoplug allows “for USB drive sharing over the Internet.” This device can also automatically sync content with your Macbook or PC.
More, you can share and watch movies, listen to music and view photos directly through the Pogoplug website. And if you’re thinking that visiting the website is too tedious just to watch movies or listen to music, you can also do all these features through your iPhones. Compared with the old version, this new Pogoplug model adds a drag-and-drop interface and sharing over media sites like Twitter and Facebook.
For $129 without service fees, this Pogoplug that takes up to four USB drives is as good as you can get. But with this device, you have to rely on the company’s ability to stay in business to continue sharing files over the Internet.
Vinyl records have seemingly gone to the past, but it’s not quite true. Until now, many people like to listen to old records on the plates, creating a unique atmosphere. And what music fan will refuse to extend the life of the collection, transferring it into a more secure format.

Most computers do not smell. Of course, if it is not a brand new piece of high technology, just out of the box. These “babies” can smell very strongly. And not everyone likes the smell of new plastic.
But who will allow you to light scented candles in the office? However, even if it is strictly prohibited – there is a way out.
This flavor, warming oil and using USB port energy, not only fulfills its primary task, but its design corresponds to its function. This is a flower, “growing” from the shell of PC smelling like a flower. Good idea.
Unfortunately, this is just a concept.
