Gadgets and Small Home Entertainment Centers
One of the most fascinating new types of gadgets on the market is the portable
video device. Portable video devices are also called portable media devices
and sometimes portable entertainment devices, and are direct descendants of
the MP3 player. In addition to the digital audio that MP3 players could provide,
portable video devices can play video on built in color LCD screens, display
digital photos on the same screen, and many models can even be used to
play video games as well. These gadgets have a lot of features built into
small packages and come in a tremendous variety of different models that
range from very basic models all the way up to home entertainment systems
in miniature.
On the lower end of the portable video device spectrum are models that are
about the same size as many audio only digital devices, yet have a surprising
capacity to store video. These gadgets can easily fit in the palm of one’s hand
and display video on a screen only an inch or two across, depending on the
model. These gadgets can cost as little as fifty dollars and are available
anywhere.
On the larger end of the spectrum are some really impressive portable video
devices. These gadgets have hard drives that are bigger than the hard drives
in the computers that many of us are still using, and can store anywhere from
dozens to hundreds of hours of video depending on the format that the video
is stored in. Archos is a major manufacturer of these gadgets and builds a ton
of features into its higher end models. For example, Archos makes one model
that has a screen that’s over four inches across that has touchscreen
functionality. This model has built in WiFi capabilities that enable it to access
the Internet in a variety of different locations that have wireless hot spots. It
even has a built in Opera web browser and the ability to zoom in on specific
parts of a web page in order to allow its user to read the page better. It can
also display the contents of its screen on a normal TV set in order to provide
better visibility. It can also display PDF files that it has downloaded from the
Internet as well.
Archos also provides an impressive array of accessories for its higher end
portable video gadgets. For example, it’s possible to get various docking
stations for the devices that enable them to record video that other devices
play. This, combined with the ability to display video on a TV screen, can
make an Archos portable video device the DVR component of your home
entertainment center. This is especially useful because it provides the option
of watching anything on the gadgets hard drive either on the full sized TV set
or on the go, and the decision can be made on a moment’s notice. Archos
also supplies video cameras that can be mounted on bike helmets so that its
portable video devices can essentially be converted into camcorders. Plus,
with options of recording video in MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 formats, these high end
gadgets give their users a good deal of control over how video is recorded.
If you’re a busy person who loves TV and video, these entertainment centers
in miniature are the perfect gadgets for you.

Can anyone help out with some ideas for a gadget loving boss?
We were looking through some postings on other sites and found this one that we thought our readers might be able to help with. Please give a post below that will trackback to her if you can help. Why not give her a hand if you can think of anything that fits the bill . . .
Her Question Below:
I have an awesome boss who is leaving to relocate in Hawaii and I wanted to get him a small gift (under $20) and need some ideas. He loves gadgets but it would need to be functional as the Hawaii move is expensive and he isn’t going to take every little thing. He is a young 50-year old and also liked pens (that’s my fall back gift idea) I would love to hear any clever ideas or websites that I could check! Thanks in advance!

Can you make an Affiliate Marketing Opportunity With a Potato Gun?
Most people struggle to make money from affiliate marketing opportunities, even if they have a trusty potato gun. Now this is not something that happens automatically, or overnight, but you can definitely make a fortune from affiliate marketing. If you happen to have a potato gun, you can make money online with it.
Well, not with the actual potato gun, but you can make money selling ideas, and information about it. This sounds weird, I know; however, there are people out there making money from selling information on how to build and create a potato gun.
He tests how it works, how far it shoots and materials to use for best performance etc. He then links to various department stores through affiliate links, and also sells a product on how it works.
So how would you start your own online business? Would you sell information on how to make a potato gun, or would you maybe sell information on how to get rid of ants in your home? You can sell that too!
The way affiliate marketing works is simple. Somebody else creates a product or service and you simply drive visitors or traffic to that offer, and whenever somebody buys that product from your recommendation, you get paid. This sounds super simple, right?
Yeah, it does… But it’s not as easy as you might think. Over 99.99% of those that try affiliate marketing fail. It is tough to do well and there is a lot of false information circling the internet about this topic.
There are a lot of “ebooks” from “experts” that doesn’t show you anything of value and they still want a lot of money to share this knowledge. It is pretty simple, but takes a lot of trial and error as well as hard work to do affiliate marketing well. We bring this up because we like potatoe guns and we like the idea of affiliate marketing. Share you stories with us of how you’ve done affiliate marketing well and how those potato guns are coming along.

Drink Too Much? Don’t Worry, Robo Car will Drive You Home!
This article from Fast Company is pretty cool. EN-V, which is short for Electric Networked-Vehicle, is a new concept vehicle from GM that will drive you home when you’ve had too much to drink. Where do we get one?
It maintains the core principle of personal mobility as Fast Company put it -– freedom –- while helping remove the motor vehicle from the environmental debate and redefining design leadership. It is a two-seater and is all electric. It came out of GM’s China Group and we’re very interested to see if/when it actually hits the market. In the meantime, keep the cab company’s number close at hand, but keep your eye out for GM’s EN-V.

Google wants to BUILD your new TV!
Well, they at least are evidently going to start working with Sony and the rumor is Intel on a new TV that they want to act as an entertainment hub for your living room. Here are gadgetlounge we think that makes a lot of sense. We’ve had a pretty powerful computer hooked up to our living room tv for a quite awhile.
Google TV or perhaps “G-TV” will use the Android OS and may have a set-top box and an actual TV. In addition to regular tv, it will have lots of other functions that you would expect like Hulu, YouTube and other web-video sources, as well as games and apps for social networking. Google is of course interested in order to add some advertising to your tv. They own a few resources in that area so far, but this could serve as a big push. Let’s see how Apple responds . . .

Hey Blackberry . . . We are Eyeing the iPhone!
Accoding to Crowd Science nearly 40% of Blackberry users may move to Apple’s iPhone in the near future. Also troubling for Blackberrry is that a third of them would also consider switching to the Android operating system ala Google. When asked specifically if they’d swap their present phone for Google’s new Android-based Nexus One, 32% of Blackberry users said “yes,” compared with just 9% of iPhone users.
Users of all types of smartphones had downloaded more free applications than paid ones during the preceding seven days, with iPhone users significantly more likely to pay for apps, Android users leading in free apps, and Blackbery users far behind on both fronts. Both Android users and iPhone users were found much more likely than Blackberry users to use their phones only for personal use (32%, 28% and 16% respectively). On the other hand, 7% of Blackberry users use their phone only for business, with that category of user minimal with iPhone (1%) and non-existent in the Android base. iPhone users represented 17% of the respondents, followed by Blackberry users (15%), Nokia (10%), Windows Mobile (4%), Android (3%) and Palm (2%).
This is pretty interesting stuff and we thank the folks at Crowd Science for sharing it with us. The implications for Blackberry are really huge. It sounds like although they certainly had a first mover advantage, especially as a business device, that advantage is being massively challenged. We think that Apple’s appeal to a certain aesthetic style and simplicity of use is what appeals to people. The integration of your music and the antipated launch of Apple’s iphone 4.0 in late Spring / early Summer (just around the corner) is driving some real interest in change as well. Let the games begin (or continue) . . .
