Review: TV-B-Gone: TV, please turn yourself off
This little gadget may come useful in places where there's an obtrusive TV blaring some stupid program while you would prefer to quietly read a book... for example, in a café, bus terminal or airport. With it you simple point it to the TV, press the button, and wait for it to send the 'Off' code. It's rather small so it can be on your keychain.
It may be not the most used item, but maybe if you travel a lot or you keep getting annoyed, it would be godsend.

Review: Archos gMini XS 202: Smallest Mp3 Player with 20 Gigabytes
This is a really sweet mp3 player, small in size and big in space. I would recommend this if you want an mp3 player you can carry around, it measures a mere 2.9" x 2.3" x 0.75" and weighs just 4.2 ounces. It has a blue-scale, 2" LCD screen which is protected by a metallic cover. Its 20GB hard drive stores up to 10,000 MP3s, WMAs (including protected) or WAVs.
Other interesting features of the XS 202 include the ability to rename, move, copy or delete files and make playlists on the player, an icon based graphical user interface, up to 17 hours of battery life and support of USB 2.0 for high speed file transfers and storing data files.
So it's ultra portable, has enough space for ALL your favorites, if not your entire mp3 collection, and has a very good battery life. It sure looks like a winner!
