Dick's Gadget Warehouse. And how to submit your video to the show.

This week's Viewer Warehouse Video came from David Phillips with this email:
This is my gadget, the Tekna Micro Knife. I've had it for a very long time. It's an OK knife, a little bit different than most pocket knives.

We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show.
Here’s what we’re looking: Your home shoot video – 2 to 3 minutes long, in any of the following categories:
I bought a piece of crap: Did you buy something you ended up hating? We won't get you a refund, but we might be able to give a platform to vent your disappointment. Remember, "family friendly" language applies.
I invented this! Did you invent something? (Or did a friend or relative invent something.) We can't market it for you, but we can help get the word out. Show us what it is, and how it works. Even if it's a prototype, you can get our (and the audience) reactions. No professional ads please.
My Gadget Warehouse: Okay, so you don't have a warehouse. It doesn't matter. Just tell us about your favorite old gadget(s). When and where you bought it, and why you're still hanging on to it.
My Favorite Gadget of All Time: Show us what it is, tell us what it does and why you love, or loved it! It can be something you just bought too.
Post them on YouTube and send our producer, Jason, the link! We'll do the rest. (Or possibly nothing, but that's unlikely.) Remember, videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long! Low production value is fine, but we should be able to hear you and see you! If we select and show your video on The Giz Wiz you will now be awarded with some sort of prize. Like an autographed MAD magazine and some piece of crap. So that's one more (so-so) reason to send in your video!
All show submissions go to gizwiz@twit.tv
Letter of the week:
A couple of months ago on the Giz Wiz we talked about the 360cam. At the time the company, Giroptics, didn’t have a website up and running and they were waiting to launch their Kickstarter campaign. I actually wondered if I would ever hear from them again. Well, I did:
Hi Dick:
Just a quick follow up note to let you know that the 360cam from Giroptics that we displayed first at Digital Focus in New York launched earlier today on Kickstarter.

And now back to the Giz Wiz: Check out that link. They were looking for $150,000. See for yourself where they are already! Looks like there’s huge interest in the 360cam. I should be getting a review unit as soon as their available.
