" Yes -- why you work on your time machine I'm going to the first question -- eight. It's typical -- or access point at work my computers connected to the land however so I wanna turn this into a wireless access point using a spare PCI Wi-Fi adapter asked. I came across a program called the virtual axis point virtually. You could use Internet connection sharing which is built into windows on but depending on how hard -- your company is about security this is a great way to get fired. Or fired and sued for damages should hackers snake their way into your company's network -- TOY axis point and -- say. The plans for next year's products."

" Or your customer database yet this kind of a public service NASA's behalf sysadmins everywhere to not get wireless access your network just because you care if you don't secure properly and chances are you won't based on the experiences of midi. Networking professionals and over the years you can instantly bypass the security in your office of security that's maintained for sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars. With the work of dozens of people. Talk to your IT folks first. Offered by new antenna or prouder or whatever being complete -- to your manager who do not jury agreed coverage. If you do decide to ignore this and hit violence security protocols hacker routers and there. Create your company doesn't do regular Wi-Fi audits in at the very least he's a random thirteen character key WPH t securities don't know immediately get hacked by Rupert force attack. These secure resources features of Wi-Fi that's what my favorite news for security research group. Have compiled something like a million. Of the top of the EPA pass -- across the top 1000 societies and threw them -- look up tables. Which are essentially. -- she's from brute force attacks which means you could probably have your system cracked open -- really quickly use basic dictionary words. So if you do decide to. Hack your own brouder into the office that he can access your iPod touch from the conference room to put the cart machine -- somebody else's Q. So that when they fire -- body for violating network security protocols it's not you. Slide those tables are also good to cross check your own -- makes you have something particularly vulnerable. It's actually kind of amazing what that person ever heard about. The problems with cheap Wi-Fi routers and network security was a guy who worked for a very big international bank to. When -- make sure that there was -- two were wasn't -- there's always some bleed out of Wi-Fi routers outside the building to work to lower Manhattan and Wall Street. Things like -- that -- in an -- and held. Device and he said he walked for blocks. Any covered and they got -- psyches -- blog is basically that gets his ideas for Michael for a thousand. Unlocked -- 1400. Unlocked. Wi-Fi routers have. This was back into really early days of life price it you know we've got these vice presidents that make a lot of money they don't -- carry -- an ethernet cable -- And he said it was rampant that people would square applicant -- our Linksys writer puppy to a dollar time. Jacket and others their computer and leave it -- to add in an ad man and the security that time was pretty horrible look don't bypass security in your office. Just don't. It's as -- space you know it it's a small office it's your office that's one thing. But you know large corporations that a lot of money to secure Wi-Fi basically says that they don't. Become liable for information leaking out into the public or wild for hackers and other people."

" But hey and it's totally separate note. And what not but accessories are coming up -- why only got your attention."

" Videogames aren't cheap and sometimes they suck your -- fifty bucks for new -- you -- cookie. Part of my video rental service they've got that out you. Brought all possible. If it would be different about him is how about fifteen bucks a month before but yeah. Like that they'll be wonderful game for the time it can perform to quite accurately -- you -- hopefully. Then blame game and in place and that available. -- like game playing typically can fit on the game by web site in the game if you're for the discounted price. Good and you -- game of the season. You can even create you do -- credit toward membership. The top all that how better to do. While -- we'll -- to complete problem is side of the game plan that conflict Tekzilla. We'll wide open field and -- the -- right. My game fly."

" While this week's freebie download pick. A free program we find useful fun or incredibly into this week but it at home. What they thought was people leave their machines running me and I regardless of whether you're actually doing anything that -- well.

They companies that both sides and then that he favored by running folding."

" Hall well love or hate them there's one thing you can -- iPod is that they had tons of accessories. And Packard recently got a bunch of it last -- in wandered at nontraditional but also very interesting. I for example these would tech stocks from FC. And dot com -- are handmade from cedar wouldn't these got about fifteen of them make someone at a time. -- is it. Gonna printers and everything. And it. It connects by USB. I don't think it comes with any kind of wall charger. Adapter of any kind on behavior at the regular standard iPod you know that AC plug in there you can release that. You know my favorite things and I've ever seen and I mean things in a general sense like ever. That's totally handmade it's mostly what it. It means his ears and it's not think it just came out of the -- like adding a little bit of fans -- organic next your life and probably keep monster closet. I. Think your who like these are hand made and there they run for about 48 dollars to about a 120 for the double iPod dock."

" So basically if you want the end aesthetically appealing and probably not on your co workers office desk iPod accessory."

" There are literally -- kind toward the final moments it's on anted to search for when tech WOODTEK. I mean I'm sorry TEC it's not like Tekzilla and that's. Yeah and died he's got a whole list of the ones that are currently available anemic so my guess what -- times you'll get something new and different."

" Now what do people -- with Greece where some product acquisition is a huge fan of a mutual speakers primarily speakers. Like this -- speaker."

" Settlement that I -- a system. And she allowed some clearance CES we actually saw. A lot of offerings by the company that makes this particular one the -- panda. We actually look at me I KEI. Cake which was like twice the size as -- soccer -- business. And this is the I can diversion and one mean it's really incredible about these is the settlement is some thing."

" It's actually shockingly good because you look at it it's like a novelty speakers novelty speakers tend to sound like you know -- I don't know the iPod speaker it's our iphones the -- at the bottom of the toilet this going to be. -- an awful and ugly and these closet which is kind of shocking."

" Yeah and this one is currently on sale for about a 120 dollars on the website. And witches and not exactly the most inexpensive iPod accessory -- compare -- like I home system. And this sounds to me better than I at home -- that I have at home I think the best way we're gonna take the iPhone dock I have at home because you. Love her like an iPod buzzword machine. But this isn't really -- IC can hear him. Yeah it says is not iPhone compatible will be able save and they all our. You test the years in the sound coming down you don't believe you the president isn't using this battle panda. And I'm gonna change and audio it's really quite wonderful. The thing that's interesting is that there are the speakers are up here are some of the speakers and they have these little comical to signs that actually dissipate the sound and spread it further yeah the -- and I can't remember right now."

" I've revealed this parishioners you know utterances of -- elegantly. Higher end kind of speaker system won't yet usually like this whole -- you know -- core of these speakers in -- me like 50000 dollars speaker systems of these -- leaders on problems with kind of amusing to see you know. The plastic and."

" I would like to start -- Hewitt and do you find it -- to fight it tooth and nail file but it it for extended testing purposes of course good luck with that. --"

" So okay I I -- obviously -- you know I I find monster cables to be overpriced expensive and generally not worth the cash however. -- I say this you have something worth the money yet actually U sells for ten bucks and that works with iPhone blackberries -- much because cellphone and."

" You know I had a cellphone ideally would like this -- on the -- I've been docking --"

" That's -- you know I handed it to use the forgot it's a pretty basic product. You -- you in my case because I'm rocket cassette adaptor in my Clark Evans -- this area. Basically the idea is that he's a high instead headphones in anti microphone on your line -- put it out well. And it works extremely you like nice headphones and you still be able to make phone calls with them. IPhone actually handles that gracefully and -- put this onto your headphones and you'd have. Your headphones that you like it's that is horrible you're about to ship with the iPhone and so did the talking -- comes you have the one that I don't like about this is the fact that it's you know -- headphones would ever put into it at six two to three inches. So is crying for tearing up your iPhone by being dropped or -- you -- up against the wall or something with it. Other -- go to work shockingly well and everybody's been -- be on the phone lately success stories in the future AT&T services to get working and has been shot because they also note that I traditionally used the Bluetooth wireless adapter in the car. Which has been miserable too awful. -- The -- I still think the best of the Bluetooth wireless ones still. Need by comparison to me hard -- of course so we tell people the time -- but it communities but a lot of people who normally frustrated with me talking in the car outside of the safety. The issue of analysts. Disturbed so we get actually a lot of questions about the diagnosis and there radio shacks everywhere a lot of other electronic stores. Are they worth the money is the basic question is is part of the I -- everywhere power kit and the idea is that you buy one adapter and you by different tips. -- different devices this is one is the iPhone iPod adapter. I -- second San Diego -- iPhone and -- beat and camera charger. So what's the RadioShack and it picked up the -- go. Everywhere kids and it keeps view. The car adapter and there's also -- and heard people wall socket and possibly that the split -- rechargeable devices at once. Is it cheap. No is an adaptable is that he he might be carrying a right here in future. Yeah -- to draw huge amount average so it's pretty future peripheral gadgets and cell phones that don't come take -- like you know mobile adapters in the box a lot of stuff that it wants you to buy the extra. So it actually be kind of fun to test this with three or four devices on there BS you'll see what's heat generated at that point."

" I think thinking about a little -- and CES last year I -- but it is something very similar and it has been a freaking life -- I don't have a pay forty dollars shortly that's yet. But it's nice to have all the different adapters immediately charged things have read a speech you know when you're at an airport you've got one of those travel. Base stations there yet it's one."

" on the USB adapter for this but for the notebook which might be. Might be negative for folks but I do have it -- adaptor that comes this but it's no one is an analog thing you've got over here so this. Is actually probable. One of our viewers -- and his pride and Julie Tico fold. Travel stand for the iPhone iPod and iPod touch. You can buy to the Amazon store. He actually an interesting -- he could find any portable box for his iPhone. So -- design and development had manufactured the key to travel stand. And the idea is that when you are sitting on the plane or at your hotel desk you can prop your iPhone up and see what's going on. You -- products are commerce Stuart who products dot com. For green black or white versions for ten bucks I --"

" needed exactly this thing on so many occasions you would not believe the things I've jury -- On airplanes to hold up my iPhone so I can watch movies. You know from like it's from -- to like sweaters folded -- strange origami shapes to support the wage to like cops put on certain things -- bent over with. Popsicle sticks I -- that -- up you get the idea this is exactly the kind of thing that I would use all of the time. I want that he was just like what's neat -- something that doesn't exist.

Or some of the -- that some of the dedicated. Blu-ray players are pretty hardcore by comparison. But though the price all of them are cheap they're -- probably by dedicated Blu-ray player of high quality for less than the cost of the UPS three. Especially from Samsung and so an expert on the point though is is it worth it to have Blu-ray discs for a 720. I would say yes I let's say yes tea because either one of them are going to be better that basically that the Blu-ray disk even if you're gonna have the full 1080. You're still gonna have -- tons more visual information encoded on that disk. Compared to dvd but I -- dvd had an amazing collection of dvds have been with watching dvds pretty much since it's using it for a dvd player when they came out. But it's essentially. You know.
