The iPod Video Projector – A Compact Big Screen?

By Lamont Davis on November 29, 2009

I love watching movies on my iPod Touch, I do; when I’m traveling by plane or bus or train, or as a passenger in a car when the conversation wanes. It’s a bit of a pain holding it at an angle conducive to optimum viewing, though. And the same rings true when I’m staying in a hotel with a less than stellar channel selection or in the guest room of someone’s house with no television in it – I need my visual entertainment without getting a crick in my wrist from holding my media device! Well, that’s where this little fella comes in.

iPhone Video Projector

iPhone Video Projector

No bigger than a candy bar, the iPod Video Projector from Hammacher Schlemmer can project up to a 60” video image or a nearby wall or ceiling, or any other such receptive surface, so I can watch my movies in the most comfortable position possible – supine. Preferably with a small bucket of well-buttered popcorn balanced precariously on my chest.

The pocket-sized projector doesn’t just work with the various iPods, however. It is also compatible with the iPhone or any other video source with composite outputs, such as video cameras, camcorders, and other video players with composite audio/video outs.

The functionality of this device doesn’t just cater to my own personal horizontal entertainment laziness, however. It can also project photos and other app content stored on your device – think of the business applications when impromptu presentations are required in remote locations with no access to the typical office setup. This could be particularly useful in combination with the iPhone’s video capture and still photography capabilities. (more…)

The Online Purchase Security System – Fraud-Free Internet Shopping!

By Lamont Davis on November 25, 2009

Depending on whom you believe, credit cards have been with us since either the late forties or early fifties, introducing a life of convenience the previous generations would have stopped in the street and gawked at. No longer did we have to haul around hefty sacks of cash in order to fund our pursuit of leisure. A simple transaction with a small card was all that was required.

Of course, back then, doubtful telephone calls had to be made and identification signatures suspiciously evaluated. Compared to today, it was the equivalent of being frisked and frog-marched to a holding cell for a prolonged bout of cross-examination. Now, with the Online Purchase Security System from Hammacher Schlemmer, those days are long gone.

With the advent of the internet the credit card came into it’s own. No longer would hours be spent listening to repetitive “your call is important to us” messages on the telephone in order to purchase from a catalogue (a previous version of internet shopping printed on something called “paper” and distributed via the mail to households around the world). Nowadays simply typing your credit card number into a little box on a website is usually all that is required.

Peace Of Mind With One Swipe

The problem is this method is ripe for fraud, especially as the more we do it, the more blasé we become about throwing our numbers around like candy at a kids’ parade. Even “secure” travel sites such as Expedia.com has suffered $4.1 million losses from credit card fraud, according to CNN. (more…)

The Batting Improvement System – Work On Your Swing Without Leaving the House

By Lamont Davis on November 21, 2009

It was about 15 years ago that I first took a swing at a baseball. “Swing” is probably too generous a word to use in this regard; “swat” might be more apt, “hack” even better.

Batting Improvement System - Hammacher Schlemmer

Batting Improvement System

To say I hadn’t been a particularly athletically gifted child would be a colossal understatement. That first time I swung at a baseball, though, I hit it, purely by luck, right in the sweet spot. When you hit a baseball like that it makes a curiously clean “tock” sound. You barely feel the impact in your shoulders and arms, and oh, it flies! The feeling you get when this happens washes over you like a warm glow. Then you spend the rest of your life trying to do it again.

It’s no secret that hitting a baseball is one of the hardest activity in sports, a notion to which my subsequent trials attest. The narrowness and shape of the bat, the movement of the ball, the pre-committal to the swing, the prediction of where the ball is going to be at the moment of collision rather than where the ball is and the timing required to put the bat in the same exact location in space are all factors that stack to determine whether the batter is cheered around the bases or booed back to the dugout.

The Classic Diner CD and iPod Jukebox – Bring Back Memories of Yesteryear!

By Lamont Davis on November 17, 2009

Adding a touch of nostalgia and charm to your home can be easy with the classic diner CD and iPod jukebox. Do you remember the days when you could go to the local dinner and play some of your favorite tunes on the jukebox? For those that don’t remember these days this jukebox can add to your décor or even make a great addition to a game room.

Classic Diner CD and iPod Jukebox

Classic Diner CD and iPod Jukebox

This classic tabletop diner jukebox has all the chrome and charm that goes with jukeboxes from the late 1950s until the early 1960s. To top it off this jukebox comes with a CD that has one hundred of the greatest songs of that era performed by the original artists. Not only does the jukebox look great but with the ability to select the song by pressing letters and numbers, it has the sound and feel of a real tabletop jukebox. You can just hear the spin and pop of the vinyl record as it goes into place.

Once you have chosen your favorite song sit back and let the music surround you with a stereo speaker system that is wonderful. Some of the greats include the Flamingos with “I Only Have Eyes for You” done in that wonderful doo-wop style. Or how about the one they did “If I Can’t Have You.” Bobby Darin with “Dream Lover,” Gene Chandler with “Duke of Earl,” and of course the unforgettable Elvis Presley with songs like “Are You Lonesome Tonight” will help bring back memories of an earlier era gone by. Having these great songs at your fingertips alone is worth the cost of the jukebox. (more…)

The Authentic New York Hot Dog Vendor Cart – Bring the Boardwalk Home!

By Lamont Davis on November 13, 2009

The authentic New York hot dog cart has been around since about 1909. It can be seen on the streets and in the parks of New York. This cart makes a great cart to use at events, parties, picnics or on your patio when entertaining. The hot dog vendor cart can still be seen on the streets of New York and other metropolitan cities today.

Authentic New York Hot Dog Vendor Cart

Authentic New York Hot Dog Vendor Cart

As early as 1867 Charles Feltman sold pies from a cart on Coney Island. He also had many requests for sandwiches. The cart was small so he used a small charcoal stove and tin box, which he built in his cart, so he could sell sausages on a roll. By 1910 Mr. Feltman had built a million dollar business on Coney Island. Just think, it all came from a hot dog cart!

Technology has come a long way since then. This however is the original hot dog vendor cart. Today this cart is made of 18-guage stainless steel. The wheels are pneumatic making it a breeze to move from place to place. The wheels lock for safety and to keep the cart from moving while you are working. It has a vibrant beautiful umbrella that helps to protect you from the sun or weather. It also adds to the beauty of the cart.

Room, Room, and More Room

One of the greatest features of this vendor cart is the amount of room you have for all of the items you need to make it a success. You have three stainless steel steamer trays to hold the hot dogs and keep them warm. Each tray holds about twenty hot dogs or sausages. There are two shelves on the front of the cart that can be used to hold the buns and all the fixings for a great hot dog. Can’t you just smell those great hot dog and sausages now? It makes your mouth water just thinking about them. (more…)

Imagine a hot summer day when you look at to your patio and see this Coca-Cola chest sitting there. You read the words “ice cold” and you just have to go for one. It is a wonderful way to always keep your sodas cold and ready when you are. No longer will you have to worry about not having enough room in the refrigerator for your drinks. With the new technology used for the refrigerator system of this chest, your sodas will be ready when you are.

Pemberton. It has and continues to dominate the soda market worldwide. The logo for Coca-Cola first appeared in 1915 in the Atlanta journal.

The logo is as popular today as it was back then and still brings to mind that great taste. Having this great refrigerated chest from a bygone era can bring back memories of what a treat it is to have an ice cold coca-cola. (more…)

The Gigantic Water Play Slide – Great Fun in the Sun!

By Lamont Davis on November 5, 2009

The gigantic water play slide is not just perfect for the kids; everyone can have fun! Memories are made with family outings and play time is great for all. This inflatable water slide gives them all the entertainment that they could want on the water. Everyone can be as loud as they want, and with so many places to climb they will have a wonderful time.

Gigantic water slides like these are usually only found at resorts and water parks but now the family can have one of their own for playing on. One of the biggest concerns today is the lack of exercise that children are getting. This lack of exercise has led to a rise in childhood obesity and all the health issues that go along with it. Having a gigantic water slide that they can play on is just the ticket to getting them outside and getting the exercise they need while having great fun.

The material used to make this water slide is the same stuff used for the inflatable boats used by the Navy Seals. This will assure you of many years of enjoyment for the kids and grand kids. This is especially important if you worry about puncturing the side. All the seams are heat sealed and it has been treated so there are no worries about the sun’s UV rays fading out the brilliant colors. (more…)

The Professional Roomba – No More Vacuum and Broom!

By Lamont Davis on November 2, 2009

The professional Roomba robotic vacuum is amazing and a must have for anyone that hates vacuuming and sweeping. You have to love the one that invited something just to make our jobs easier. You will want to tell everybody about your new Roomba. This machine is made to clean large areas as well as those high traffic areas. You know the ones that you feel must be cleaned no less than once a day sometimes more.

Professional Roomba Robotic Vacuum

With the robotic technology used in the Roomba it is cleaning made easy for your home, office, or business. It is battery powered, but this isn’t a problem. The new Roomba cleans four 12 ft x 12 ft rooms before it returns to its charging station. When it has finished the job that it has been set to complete it will also return to its station. This new Roomba collects 3 ½ times the amount of debris as the previous versions. The collection compartments are easy to remove and empty.

You don’t have to worry about those dust bunnies under the furniture or in corners with the professional Roomba. It is amazing how it can maneuver along the edges of the wall, around furniture, under some furniture that isn’t sitting directly on the floor and in those hard to reach areas that a traditional vacuum/sweeper can’t reach. This machine can go from carpet to hardwood floors without your having to adjust the settings. (more…)
