General,
Ok I've avoided writing about penis enlargement gadgets in the past because well it's just an odd subject. I mean me personally I'm happy with my stuff, though I've always wondered how much truth their is to the whole pop on a piece of plastic and metal and in a few months you've grown inches. The funny part is that the male enhancement gadgets are a lot like another male improvement product, hair restoration.
Your probably wondering how penis enlargement and hair restoration go together, well besides them both being targeted towards men their enhancement products both tend to take multiple months to make any difference. Beyond that it also has the unfortunate side effect of being one of those items that people aren't 100% sure works. Some people use it for months and see that it works fine, but others see it not making a difference after 3 weeks and drop off.
Personally I've been using Kirkland's hair treatment for over 2 months and while I haven't seen a "drastic" change my girlfriend has definitly said my hair is fuller. So I'll continue to use it and see what happens. But here's the interesting thing the price difference is something that makes penis enhancement a bit more difficult than hair restoration, you see the up front cost for 4 months of hair restoration can be 20-30$. While the male enhancer is several hundred dollars in a one time fee... So while if the penis enlarger works its definitly cheaper in the long term, but in the "try it to see if it works" it's just not as accessible. But most of the companies do offer a pretty long term satisfaction guarantee that should make up for that.

Well you know theirs a time of year, much like this that makes those that own houses just a tad bit depressed. Why? Because your house is no where near as amazing as the houses that Electronic House selects as Home of the Year. This years winners are more than worthy of top of the line home insurance and security because... well, DAMN! This years winners that made the top homes are a good bit different than the 2007 winners.
The 2008 winners have definitly been impacted by the whole green save the earth feeling going around lately, as well as the movement to power efficiency and sustainability. In fact for the first time ever, an energy efficient sustainable home grabbed the most highly coveted gold award. But what really makes it impressive is the combination of earth-saving goodness and electronic goodies all in one home. Some of the electronics in the house even make it more energy efficient and waste less energy.
Theirs ALOT of houses to view and lots of pictures to check out at Electronic House. But their all so awesome your going to want to check them all out and spend some drool worthy time just stairing at the goodness that is the best Homes the world has to offer ;)

You know I saw this today over at Engadget and had to post about it because it's something so stupid it made me crack up immediately. You know those "super awesome" toys you had as a kid that would make farm sounds when you pulled the string. Well apparently someone decided packaging an iPhone look a like with farm animals and selling it cheaper than most picture frames sell for, would be something worthwhile. The Toggolino Phone apparently just is dieing to make the kid inside smile, and snicker a bit, I mean it looks like its made from the worlds cheapest plastic and cardboard. Do people actually buy these things who would actually waste money on something so cheesy and cheap looking?

Yep you heard me right, those ultra sexy TV's that caused the huge stir at CES are now on the market. No you don't have to fly to Japan to get one of Hitachi's new "1.5" UltraThin LCD HDTVs that come in at a beautifully thin 1.5" thick. Ok so these aren't the super ultra thin LCD TV's that they were measuring in millimeters, but hell 1.5" is still damn small for a 47" TV.
The new UltraThin 1.5 series will be coming in 32", 37", 42" and 47" variants, and has also been broken down into 2 separate Series of models, the Director Series(X) and Ultra Vision(V) models. The X models will come with a 2 year warranty with sticker prices ranging between $1,999 and a whopping $4,699, and I can almost guarantee they won't be shipping with any pimpy HDMI splitters or even HDMI cables for your pleasure, no those goodies are always extra. But hey no one ever said beauty was cheap did they? The V series comes at a bit less, ranging between $1,799 and $4,499. While all of the sets are "on sale" now, their are a number of the sets that won't be available until July and September.

Apple | General,
Apple in something that's quite different than the shows of giant announcements that it's known for went and did something that probably every person with an AppleTV immediately noticed, that is unless you've got some really cheap eyeglasses and can't see the da*n TV at all. Without a press event or a big hour long "we'll be back soon" message to hint at it's release, Apple went ahead and suttly enabled Movie Purchases on full-length films today.
Prior to today you could only rent movies (much like the XBLVM, I wonder if the change is coming there soon as well, hmm) but after today Cupertino has completely enabled the purchasing of movies. This comes on the heals of the announcement that they will be releasing movies for rent/purchase the same day as the movies hit the DVD platform, another thing I'd love see come to the XBLVM (and Zune marketplace!). While the movies are available to buy details still remain pretty sketchy, such as how the pricing will actually work for older movies, but we do know that some are selling for $14.99, not cheap but not that expensive either. Also theirs no word if this is for the HighDef versions or only standard definition, or if their will be an added fee for the HD copy purchases.

General | Hardware | Xbox360,
Qmotions a company known for it's original skate controller (seen to the left) plans to bring something that will make the skateboarder inside everyone smile a bit. No matter if your wearing the latest sk8ter kicks or just some random vegan shoes, you'll be tearing it up on the new Qmotions WIRELESS skateboard controller. Yes you read that correctly. Microsoft has bestowed Qmotions with the beloved Certified Xbox360 Wireless ability. Something that they have been known in the past to be pretty darn tight on especially after the rock band fiasco.
They haven't released anything really, no pictures of the new wireless unit or pricing data. But what they have said is that the game will be compatible with "skateboard games currently on the market" so that sounds to me like Skate an Tony Hawk will work just gravy, and considering Microsoft's "Certified Wireless" accreditation that Qmotions got, it looks like the controller might be pretty wicked.
It's an interesting move, WiiFit comes out to mixed reviews, and now a third part is releasing a wireless skateboard for the 360... hmm, I wonder if we'll see more of these, targeted controllers coming out for our beloved 360.
