So the USB Ecostrip is a kinda like a smart potential strip for office peripherals and gadgets. The surge protector was designed to reduce energy waste. that is how it works:

The USB Ecostrip plugs into the wall and the PC is plugged into the socket marked by the red arrow on the diagram. From there all other devices on the potential strip are powered via the USB port connected from the surge protector to the PC.

This way, when the PC is shut down all other devices are additionally shut down, such as your printer, scanner, modem and speakers.

“We set out to design a product that reduces energy waste, yet, allows distributors and retailers to profit from the new emphasis on that type of product,” said Bjarne Waedeled, President of Centritech Limited, Hong Kong, designer and producer of the Ecostrip. “And, considering it functions like any other capability strip, there is no education of the consumer mandatory.”

The USB Ecostrip has been around since 2005 but has yet to build it into the US market. However, that’s all going to change fairly soon.

Brando is distributing the new iMONO 39 in 1 card reader. Talk about tight, Brando packed a lot of connectivity into one small USB dongle. Makes you wanna buy some more flash.

Albeit a more common trend these days, the iMONO does support the newer SDHC format which is not backward compatible. In addition you have microSD, T-Flash and Sim support.

The 39-in-1 card reader is Vista Readyboost compliant despite the fact it doesn’t do much.

Thanks Brando

The Mac can easily and quickly become a DVR with the right software and hardware. that Mac only tip comes just in duration for that season’s prime day TV.

Using a Mac, other than the one pictured, with a USB TV Tuner (like EyeTV Tuner) along with some DVD Burning software (Toast) you can watch, record and burn every season premier your wife demands while you’re watching real TV (Football and Baseball).

For all the details jump to Macworld. Thanks LifeHacker.
