Some new wireless goodies to share

I recently bought an iSpot from Clear. I've been trying it out in various places around the Triangle, and have come to really enjoy having it. I may just drop my unlimited iPhone data plan and go to $15 and use this everywhere. The iSpot, as the name implies, only works with Apple's "iDevices" - the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch. As many as eight can access Clear's "4G" network (WiMax) over a single connection.

The second item is the Tunebug Shake. This is a BlueTooth speaker that attaches to your bike helmet (or skateboarding/snowboarding helmet), creating a resonating chamber that fills your world with music, but allows you to hear sounds from outside, like traffic and such. I've tested it a little with my bike helmet, and it's pretty nice.

See you folks at 7 PM Monday at Carolina Ale House in Briar Creek.
