Acoustic Research (a division of Audiovox) has recently updated their website to include the AWD210 headphone that Alive Matters mentioned last month. Having listened to these bad-boys not long ago, I can say that the audio quality is actually pretty amazing. Personally, I’d prefer a pair that had a USB transmitter since all my music is on my computer. But for most people, particulary those who know and trust AR, the analog in audio sender will be more appealing.
Alive Matters has also identified a few sites who are taking advanced orders for the AWD210. They are a bit random, but likely tied to a wholesaler that Audiovox works with.
Ambient Weather @ $117.49
Trio Computers @ $117.99

Technology Review published their TR35 for 2007. One of the cats, Tariq Krim founded Netvibes. I love it. Clearly I am late to the game on this one, but better late than never I say, plus, if I had come across it before it’s current mature state, I probably would have cast it off as not being ripe enough.
Better than iGoogle, better than my.yahoo, better than myway. It is what I am using for my home page. A few of the modules I like are the Facebook tracker, which satisfies my latest addiction, as well as the wordpress modules that let me easily view my stats, post articles, and watch my feeds. Plus it has a mobile version. I like this web 2.0 thing. I think it’s finally starting to mature and deliver on its promises.
