Detailed information

Card Reader

This Memory Card Gateway from Digital Foci is USB2 multi-card reader with a real difference.  When you connect it to your computer, different Drive Icons appear for each slot to let you know which icon to click to access your card.  LED indicators for each slot.  Includes a velcro mounting pad and installation CD.

Butter and Eggs

It's Butter and Eggs Day in Petaluma where Leo lives, and Leo explains what the parade is like.

Gadget Gripes

Duracell was going to introduce a universal battery for portable devices.  It never came to pass because gadget manufacturers would like to make money out of their own "proprietary" batteries.
