Puma gets into laptop bags

Posted in Business, Consumer, Cool, Storage, Travel by david on the July 9th, 2007 at 11:00 am

puma bag

How many people use the shoulder strap of a laptop bag? Well I think it is more men that women, which is probably why companies like Puma have come up with a line of lap top bags that probably suit women more than men.

These bags offer a light weight alternative to those heavy bags that are more bag than laptop. There is a great color choice too, Pink Carnation, Black Steel, Red and Baltic Sea.

But out of all things that you can think of, the best thing is of course the price, just $20!

Flash drive with your own logo

Posted in Business, Consumer, Storage, USB, mp3 by david on the June 30th, 2007 at 9:00 am

Flash drives come in all shapes and sizes these days, but those with a decent LCD are pretty rare, although they do exist they do not have a good sized screen where companies and business people can have their logo on, and even use the 4 gb memory for material related to their business, services or products.

flash drive

The LCD can be manipulated in a few different ways so that the logo can flash or move in a way to grab everyone’s attention.

The flash drive file

Posted in Consumer, Gadgets, Storage, USB, mp3 by david on the June 25th, 2007 at 2:00 pm

Flash drives come in all shapes and sizes these days, but the main thing that they are used for is the storage of files and data.

usb flash drive

So it is only fitting that a USB flash drive should be in the shape of a file, so now you can store your files in a file shaped flash drive.

Unfortunately there was no information on memory size, availably or even price.
