Record XM Satellite Radio MP3s on your iPod:
The TimeTrax guys are at it again. Their new DockTrax docking station for
your iPod allows you to stream the MP3s directly to the iPod. This is an
adapter for XM Direct. The steams can be saved as MP3 or WAV files and
then burn them to CD/DVD. One important item to mention is apparently the
software records the serial number of the software into each file. Grab

Cheap gym workout tracking solution:
Tired of bringing your paper gym journal to the gym where it has the
following issues:
1) No long term plan (book is full after a year and have to buy another)
2) Book gets torn up and pages fall out during the year
3) Cant read your hand writing from previous workout
4) No way to chart your results
5) Difficulty locating your particular exercise
Take a cheap $10 palm III or a Handspring Visor. They come with Palm OS
3.0 or greater. Add an $18 program such as Reflex and you are in business.
Just add in your exercises and sync with your computer. This app also
lets you export to excel. Here is the advantages:
1) Cheap palm or handspring that if you lose, broken or stolen who cares.
2) Data is always backed up to your PC. Also buy a 2nd palm and use as a
backup.
3) Chart your results in the gym with a simple click of a button.
4) History of your progress for your lifetime.

Buy a MMORPG char instead of wasting massive time:
You have spent weeks, months or longer building up a character on World of
Warcraft or Everquest just to get to beat up some an enemy? Well forget
about it, just buy one and whoop them tonight. Time to buy a pre-leveled
account or pay folks to level your current account for you. If you are a
mmorpg power user then you gotta have these tools in your back pocket and
an extra high level char to whoop on people when the time arises:
