Eye-Fi wireless SD cards for your camera are my favorites for all around use because they allow auto-upload to the web while I'm on the road. Google is selling the $70 version of the card for $50. The catch is that the deal comes with a 200GB of storage online included in the price. It is a good deal even if you don't want the subscription. Sign up and then set the subscription to not renew. You're still getting a bargain on the chip. Note: this card doesn't handle RAW images...there is a new, more expensive pro version that does. But, if you're shooting jpgs this is a real bargain.

Microsoft's Explorer Mouse ($99) might just remind you of your dad's Oldsmobile. It's built for comfort rather than speed, for long cruises down the Internet's superhighway, with some features that give it a bit of coolness and flash. If you're looking for an ultra-high-rez mouse for first person shooters...keep on moving; nothing to see here. But, if you spend most of your time browsing websites, checking email, and knocking out Microsoft Office documents...this just might be a winner!
If you’re a compulsive modder, Microsoft’s
It's sleek, it's black, and it is illuminated. It feels great under the touch of your fingers. If Darth Vader had a keyboard, the $79.99 Logitech Illuminated Keyboard would be the one he would have. 'Nuff said.
It wasn't long ago that there weren't too many earbuds with an in-line microphone that worked with the iPhone. Now, many (even Apple) have rushed in to fill the vacuum left by Apple's defective-by-design earphones that ship with the iPhone.
