Dorm Gadgets
Leo takes a keen interest in what’s on offer on dormco.com, not only for Abby, but also for himself, like the fridge food locker.

What are you doing to my kids??!!
Brian Thomasson asks, “What are you doing to my kids?”  He noticed the other day that his youngest child in the back-seat of the car was singing a DGW theme, and wanted to listen to the show instead of watching a DVD.

Gotcha!
Today's gadget is a similar (but more fun) idea to Keep-A-Cable (Episode 796), and not to be confused with the Gotcha Gift Box in Episode 556.

Sprint Evo
Leo has just received the new Sprint Evo, which he will review next week.  He’s already impressed by it, for the lack of blister pack.  No need for the OpenX (Episode 164) or OpenIt (Episode 496).

A Chat Missive
Not a letter, but a chat missive from trip70 of the Chatroom, who after hearing yesterday’s talk about how many floppy disk equivalents the Verbatim Tuff N Tiny 16GB could hold, sent Leo a link to floppydisk.com – which is still keeping the torch alight for the floppy disk and the floppy disk drive.  Even Sony has given up.

Fast Copy III
Missing the sound of the old floppy drive.  How about Fast Copy III on the Atari, on YouTube?

Stung by Prime
Will Cool has not written for a while, and this time, he writes about a problem he has had recently with Amazon Prime.  Some products which purport to offer free shipping for Prime members have been misleadingly labelled.

Rise and Shine
Today's gadget from Verilux is a variation of the old Rise and Shine Bedside Lamp and Alarm Clock, back in Episode 88.

TV Anywhere
Brian Houston from Bettendorf, Iowa is a new but dedicated listener who loved MAD as a kid and still does.  Brian knows of a product which he would like Dick or Leo to review – the Microvision ShowWX Laser Pico Projector.  Brian would love to be able to watch TV (from his DVR) anywhere with a combination of the iPad 3G (Episode 1067), the Slingbox (Episode 11) and the Pico Projector.
