In a time when airlines charge for everything including your first piece of checked luggage and any sort of overage in weight, the Balanzza Ergo is a handy, money saving gadget. A digital luggage scale, it is an ergonomically designed device that lets you easily weigh your baggage before you get to the airline counter so you can anticipate or avoid extra charges.
Weighing only 8 oz. itself and compact in size, it's easy to pack to take with you on your trip just in case you buy a bunch of gifts for the return trip. Simple to use, just secure the scale to the bag's handle by using the provided strap and lift the luggage until you hear a beep indicating the weight has been registered. A bright easy to read LCD display indicates weight. During these days of stressful and difficult travel, being informed is vital and can save you money. Be a bit more prepared and purchase the Balanzza Ergo for $25 from Balanzza.

Daydreams of summer aquatic fun reminded us of Liquid Image's Underwater Digital Camera Masks, goggles with built-in video and photo capabilities. Bringing underwater photography to a new level of convenience, buttons on top easily control the camera and crosshairs printed into the glass replaces the need for a display. Goggles come in three designs, differing in depth limitations and video quality. The Swim Video...
Beautifully designed, highly functional and easy to set-up, Philips' Prestigo remote rivals top-of-the-line models with similar features but costs significantly less. The latest model, the STR9320 (still yet to hit the market), hosts 300,000 devices in its memory, requiring little more than a few taps to program it to work with up to 20 components. But the "activity" settings are the real revelation, allowing...
Still one year out of consumer reach, the Plastic Logic reader is already being touted by some sources as the Kindle killer. At this week's Tools of Change for Publishing Conference in New York, I had a chance to see the reader prototype in action and get my hands on one, albeit briefly. With a form factor equivalent to that of a legal-size pad of...
After using Sharp's combination air purifier/humidifier, the Plasmacluster, for a couple months now, we're fans (no pun intended). While it's a little on the larger side for a tiny Manhattan apartment, with a true HEPA filter, a state-of-the-art ionization system and some choice extra features, we think it's worth it.Using technology that automatically senses the air quality and adjusts fans, humidification and the degree...
Thrillist and Jetblue joined forces to create the boozy whirlwind forever to be remembered as JetVegas. It was a sponsor-laden 36-hour boondoggle from New York to Vegas and back, enjoyed by 150 media-types and those who love us. Whether we subscribe to the cliché or just had too much Skyy to remember, what happened in Vegas stays in Vegas. We teamed up with Zune...
by Emily Scarlet Kramer With professional quality and two-channels, M-Audio's Microtrack II mobile digital recorder has changed my life for the better. It's pocket-sized so I can take it anywhere and it's perfect for recording song structures and sketches, the occasional live show or an important interview. Sound quality is superior for a small on-the-go recorder and its simple and straightforward interface makes it...
