The most important thing that’s kept the computer industry alive for years and years is that the computer & laptop purchase never stops with the computer itself. First comes software then follows by hardware. Tech gizmos, gadgets and etc. The computer is endlessly expandable.

Check out these fun and must have items to expand your laptop world:

In-car navigation systems are really becoming a driver’s must have add-ons accessory, so manufacturers are really adding some quite sophisticated hi-tech features to keep people/driver interested. Actually in Japan, for example, the big ‘H’: Honda has developed a crime rate detecting GPS (Global Positioning System) that will search through local police database records to inform drivers in real-time if they ever happen to drive by high crime areas.

Nintendo announced that the wireless balance board accessory for the gaming console Nintendo Wii finally has a North American release date which is May 19. Get ready to workout those abs.

The Nintendo Wii Fit bundle pack (Disember in Japan) will sell for $89.99, it’s not exactly cheap gaming accessories, but at least it’ll bundled with a battery of exercises—including yoga, aerobics, training for strength, and balance—that’ll surely get you off the couch and will make you sweat.

Microsoft Xbox Video network has been around since about 18 months ago and Apple has its own Apple-TV, but for Sony and its Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) have remained left behind the curve in aspects of downloadable movies, TV episodes and video files. Because of that, Sony execs promise to get with the program “very soon,” just around the corner; according to some blog posts.


I’ve found the blog entry from Sony SVP Peter Dille, which he promises about offering a video service for PS3 in a way that separates the service from others you’ve seen or used, although he adds that he has no any new announcements about such service.
