Timex Ironman Data Link USB
http://www.hubcanada.com/Timex Estimated
price: $150 PDAs are essential to many people who need access to their
schedule and contact list on the go, but sometimes you don't want to have
to carry a handheld. If you just want the basics, Timex's Ironman Data
Link USB watch synchronizes with Microsoft Outlook, and can copy calendar
and contact information to the watch by connecting it to your PC with a
USB cable. You can't enter data into the watch, just review it, but if you
want to travel light for a few hours, it's perfect. Of course, it also has
standard Timex Ironman features like watch, 200-lap chronograph, countdown
timers, multiple alarms, and an Indiglo night-light.
Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer http://www.hubcanada.com/Microsoft Estimated
price: $80 Just when you thought they couldn't do anything new with the
good ol' mouse, Microsoft has added a new twist -- well, a tilt, really.
This addition to the wireless line has all of the things you'd expect if
you're right-handed, including an optical sensor on the bottom that allows
you to use it on nearly any surface, two buttons up top, and two more
within easy reach of your thumb and a scroll wheel. The "tilt" is in that
scroll wheel: in addition to the usual up/down scroll, the whole wheel can
be tilted to the left or the right, making it easy to scroll around large
documents like spreadsheets in any direction you want. It takes two AA
batteries. --SC
