Review: Wi-Fi Spotter: Canary Wireless

canarywireless.gifThis portable gadget detects open wi-fi access points, their strength and their properties. It basically is useful when you want to jack up and surf, without going around with your laptop on the air. Should be very useful when you're travelling and to decide exactly which shop to go and where to sit.

Buy at Amazon: Canary Wireless

Review: First High-def digital car stereo with MP3

This is the first high-def car stereo to play DVD's with Mp3s, and also play digital AM, FM, XM and Sirius satellite radio, or you can hook up an Ipod

$1700 at alpine-usa.com

This high-end, in-dash DVD/CD/MP3/WMA/AM/FM tuner is Alpine's first HD Radio tuner, so users can listen to the AM/FM stations that are now broadcasting in digital for static-free, clearer reception. The DVA-9965 allows playback of multichannel music with integrated support for Dolby Digital(R) and DTS(R). The unit also features Alpine's proprietary GlideTouch "touch pad" technology, and Vivid BioLite for the brightest, easiest-to-read color display in the industry.

Review: Callaway HX Tour Golf Ball

CallawayGolBallPattern.gif
This golf ball has hexagonal dimples that are composed of 38 panels (up from 13); 18 make up the sides, and 20 form the crater. With more pieces, they have more control over engineering the aerodynamics of the ball and thus reduced the drag.

$50/dozen at callawaygolf.com

Less drag, longer drives!
