Interestingly enough, I read up a video from YouTube about how to save some gas by adding “pure acetone” to your tank and other fuel-efficient tips. I’m not going to take the risk of this acetone trick, feel free to share with our readers if you have experienced it or any way to cut down your gas bills! (more…)

If that big hill is keeping you from cycling to work, consider buying an electric bicycle or a conversion kit for your old bike. To learn more about electric bicycles and find local retailers, visit the Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association at www.veva.bc.ca

This is probably one of the smallest touchscreen tablet PCs I’ve seen. The CPU isn’t too impressive but this device can get most of the basic tasks done - browsing, emailing, word processing… The specs:

  • VIA Esther ULV C7-M 1.2GHz processor (400MHz FSB, 128KB L2 cache)
  • 1GB DDR2 SDRAM
  • 7 inch with 1,024 x 600 swiveling touchscreen
  • Up to 60GB hard drive
  • Linux preloaded (Windows XP compatible)
  • 802.11b/g, GPS, IPTV
  • 1.3-megapixel CMOS web camera
  • SD/MMC card slot, 3 USB 2.0 ports, audio jack, VGA
  • 4-hour battery cell

No idea on how much this costs though. Will update the price when available.

I have to admit that the Sharp Aquos BD-HDV22 is one nice combo and it’s worth to review here - VHS plus Blu-ray. This particular device is useful for people who cannot apart with their tapes but want to watch those new Blu-ray movies. Other amazing features include a 250GB hard drive and burning capability.
