Sony MDR-NC50 Noise Canceling Headphones

Before I bought these headphones, I had a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort Headphones. I thought they cancelled noise poretty well, but the frequency response really stunk.

Then, I found these at the Apple Store in NYC. These work just as well in cancelling noise AND have a better frequency response!

Not only better functioning, but better in price - only $149.99! Maybe cheaper at Amazon if you click below....

iGo Power Adapter

I was in the LAX Brookstone and bought the iGo Power Adapter set. I bought adapters for my mobile phone, iPod, and bluetooth headset. I purchased this because sometimes I need power either at an airport lounge or on the plane. But bringing so many power adapters is a real drag.

Today I tried it out in my car. How cool! It is really light and everything packs into a little bag. I also bought the adapter which allows me to charge two things at once. That is a nice addition so that I can charge my laptop and another device at the same time.

A great little package for road warriors!

Bones in Motion Cellphone GPS Tracking for Training

I haven't tried this yet, but this is really cool that it's worth posting about. Bones in Motion is developing mobile phone apps to take advantage of the GPS capabilities of the mobile phone to track your location, speed, and elevation using only your mobile phone!

The only have Sprint and Nextel phones now, but I hope they bring up Cingular soon.

Check it out here at BIM Active.
