Do you know the most expensive remote control?

Remote Control-the one gadget that made us all accumulate blood glucose, unnecessary fat and an inertia. Also, it made us all look ugly and manners less because we order people around like to switch on the light, move that leg rest here while we laze around with the remote control.

Now, someone has invented the most expensive remote control in the world; I believe it costs around $55,000.

Yes, 55 grand dollars!

"This Danish hi-tech manufacturer specializes in developing individual subsystems covering entertainment, surveillance, lighting and electronics control. Lantic Systems presented the Gold RC1 Remote Control at The Worlds Biggest Marine Equipment Trade Show at METS 2007 in Amsterdam, Holland."

More fun times in your flight.

The reason both I and my husband have been refusing to visit his sister in the U.S. is the 20 hours flying time.

It is inconceivable for us to spend such longs hours in the plane without anything that will engage us interestingly.

I just spotted in an online store, a product that will change our decision to fly to the U.S. It is a sleek portable DVD player from the makers of the novel digital photo frames. This portable DVD player comes with a rechargeable battery pack enabling 4 hours continuous play time.

I am yet to buy it because I am pondering over the size of the screen. Will it be too small so as to affect the viewing pleasure? I suppose a portable 10 inch DVD player should do-what do you think?

I also like the idea of an all in one entertainment gadget. This portable DVD player is capable of playing most DVDs and CDs, including MP3, MP4, VCD, DIVX and JPEG files.

Is it slim? Yes, it is only 30mm in thickness.

Good! I will buy it next month.

The printer that prints without ink.

A printer that prints beautiful color pictures with out ink is launched in the market by Zink.com

Look at the picture below taken from their web site:

The cost of a color ink cartridge is more than the costliest champagne in the world-I read it somewhere long ago. Even my last purchase cost me Rs.900 ($20). It used to cost Rs.1400 four years ago.

With Zink technology, we all can save plenty of money every year and I wonder what will be the reaction of the king HP.

How ZINK Works:

"The key to this process is the patented ZINK paper, an advanced composite material with dye crystals embedded inside and a protective polymer overcoat layer outside. ZINK paper is durable, colorful, and affordable.

Before printing, the embedded dye crystals are colorless, so ZINK paper looks like regular white photo paper. The ZINK printer uses heat to activate and colorize these dye crystals. The printing process is now radically simple. Just add paper and press "print". The result is high quality, long-lasting, durable, and affordable images."

Do you know that ZINK paper is capable of reproducing millions of colors at very high resolution?
