Government Technology - January 2009 - (Page 49) product For more TV on the Go The ARCHOS 7 Media Tablet would let me download and watch films, and surf the Web. I could record from cable channels to the tablet and the TV snap-on would let me watch digital fee channels from the tablet wherever I want. I’d opt for the 320 GB model, which the company says will store up to 400 movies, 3.2 million photos or 190,000 songs. The tablet has Internet and e-mail capability via a Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) connection. The screen is a 800x480-pixel, 7-inch TFT LCD. It measures 7.48x4.33x0.629 inches and weighs 23 ounces, so it should be easy to pack along. www.archos.com MIRIAM JONES CHIEF COPY EDITOR Log on today to explore Government Technology’s Product Source productsource. govtech.com news j Odds and Ends Clocky How would you like to wake up from a restful night? A: with an inexpensive clock radio that plays nature sounds? B: with an expensive, wheeled clock radio that terrifies you into being awake, hides and won’t shut up till you catch it? If you chose B, you want a Clocky. Clockys are alarm clocks that literally roll away from you once they activate. The incessant beeping continues until you can find Clocky, which could be anywhere in the house by the time you drag yourself from bed to locate it. Price: $500. www.nandahome.com CHAD VANDER VEEN ASSOCIATE EDITOR Digital Planter As I forget to water my plants for the second week in a row, the last thing I want to know is how my plants feel. With Junyi Heo’s Digital Pot, that is exactly what’s supposed to happen. Through a USB interface, the pot charges and transmits information to the computer. An LCD screen expresses pictograms if the plant is hot, cold, thirsty, dissatisfied, in danger, normal or bad. The only useful aspect is that the pot automatically drains if the plant is overwatered.
