| Become an eBay Powerseller | | |
Selling
on eBay has
become a favorite way for stay-at-home Moms to earn a few
extra dollars. Some have become eBay Powersellers as their sales volume
and income stream grew. eBay has even initiated health care as one of the benefits
of being a Powerseller. eBay may just be the way for you to
get rid of all that junk in the basement and have a little
fun at the same time. Your junk may be another's treasure.

| Mindstorms Robotic Invention System | | |
Unleash
your child's creativity with the $189 Lego Mindstorms
Robotic Invention System. You can create, build, and then
program your robot. The Lego processor "brick" can even support
Java. There are a host of books with plans
and programs for a wide range of robotic functions. This is
a gift that even Dads can love. And it may even keep the boys
away from all those mind-deadening video games. This is a
great idea....hope Santa is listening.

| Brown finds Peace with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth | | | UPS is testing a system that employs two competing
wireless technologies in four of its sorting plants.
Employees wear a bar code scanner ring on their finger
that uses Bluetooth technology to transmit information
to a wireless radio device clipped on their belt.
The radio then uses Wi-Fi technology to relay the
information to a central computer. The two competing
2.4 GHz technologies have co-existed in this test
project surprisingly well.
