Checking the thermometer outside, it is 20 degrees celcius. That’s right, spring is here!! Finally. It is time to pack the thick coats and heavy boots. No more gray and cold days. Green leaves are sprouting and soon the flowers will be in full bloom. Spring is about new life and beautiful colours.
It is also time for a new spring wardrobe for yourself and even for our laptops!! LeSportsac came up with laptop sleeves in new designs. There are 2 types.

For big laptops and for the smaller laptops. The big sleeves can fit up to 15″ laptops while the small sleeves can fit up to 13.5″ laptops.

Both selling for $38 each. Check out Lesportsac.com’s store.

Perhaps it is time to look for great laptop deals too.

Pucca is a cartoon character that is quite well-known among the little girls and even the teenage ones. There is a pucca phone and to add on to the collection of those Pucca fans out there, there is even a Pucca Mp3 player.

• Primary Function: MP3 Player
• Memory: 1GB
• Power: Built in Li-ion battery (recharges via USB)
• Controls: Play/Pause, Rewind, Forward
• Materials: Metal encased in two-piece heavy rubber Bun Girl design mold
• Dimension: 47mm x 29mm x 13mm (L x W x H)
• Manufacturer Ref.: A7HVU72R0M8R

It is made in China (like most of our electronic gadgets) and rather cheap. It costs only about $19, but currently going for about $13 at Chinavision.com.

Sure all girls love expensive gifts from well known brands, like cartier, Bedat , Bvlgari, etc. But even if you can only afford to spend on something as cheap as $19 but as cute as a Pucca mp3 player for your girlfriend, wife or mom, they will love it nevertheless.

I’d love one for myself!

Spring has just started ( I saw a couple of trees sprouting green leaves in the backyard) and I wish I could go to the countryside and enjoy the season where there are beautiful flowers blooming all over the place. Well, not likely for now. Unless if I get a free stay at hotel. Nice, clean, comfortable hotel that is.

Nevertheless, for those who are going out of town soon and are taking along gadgets that are rechargeable via the usb. How many gadgets that uses the usb to recharge do you have? My mp3 player  needs to be recharged with a usb and I ALWAYS bring my mp3 player along with me. If you own even  one or two of such gadgets, chances are you will love the travel mate adapter.

It has 2 usb ports as you can see. Comes with a retractable cable, various connector tips that can be used for the popular types of cellphones - sony ericsson, motorola, nokia, etc; and also for the Ipod.

There is also a cigarette lighter plug that enables you to use the usb travel mate even in your car! So for how much? $25.

When the word Crayola is mentioned, colourful crayons, pens and pencil colours would come to mind. But now they have a new product that does not relate at all to colouring or drawing. They have made an Mp3 player specially for the kids.

Comes in easy to hold and grip shape for the little hands and colourful control buttons. There are 2 GB of space for music and also has voice recording feature and a built it speaker. Along with the player, there are comfortable earbuds and also colourful stickers for the kids to affix their names on the player to personalize it. (We all love to personalize our stuffs don’t we?)

Not sure about the playback time but it only uses 1 triple A battery to power it up. Another cool thing about this little thing is that you can dock it on the latest crayol am/fm radio alarm clock.

The mp3 player is selling for about $50 while the alarm clock is going for $30.

I have been using my Omron pedometer for a few months now and like it a lot. But I do not mind getting a SLIMSTICK WZ820 from Seiko. They are pretty cute because they are very slim and slick and comes in cute colours.

size = 8.9×64.4×20.0 mm (height x thickness x width)
weight = 15g
Features = Feature : The number of steps / Walking distance / Walking time / Consumption calorie / Amount of fat combustion / Exercise.

Just like my omron, it has a 7 days memory function. Cost around $50 on ebay. Would make great sports gifts for those who are active in sports and love cute things.
