I have absolutely no use for the iwavecube personal microwave other than it’s a cool looking toy that i’m sure would come in handy for people out there that need something handy in their office to heat up lunch or coffee once in a while. The point remains, however, that this is a nifty looking gadget and might just come in handy for a few of you out there.The iwavecube has all of the features you would expect from a microwave and yet it takes up less than one cubic foot of space,

making it handy for the office or an entertainment room. The iwavecube also has a built in handle for easy transportation and a view through door like most full sized microwaves…just in case you want to watch that food go round and round. The iwavecube is a quiet microwave and measures 10"x10.5"x12" and weighs 12lbs. The iwavecube also comes with a one year warranty!
The iwavecube is currently, and will probably always be exclusive to Sharper Image as with a lot of their cool little gadgets they cannot be found elsewhere, although you could try Ebay it is unlikely you will find one there yet as they are still so new to the market. |

I always keep a camera in my office, mostly for when I want to do a little dabbling in Ebay but also because as i’m working my black lab is almost always curled up in the office with me sow hen that perfect picture moment arises I always have my camera handy. Before I picked up my Canon Digital Rebel I was using a big clunky Nikon that was absolutely impossible to figure out without going to school to take a photography class. After I picked up my Canon Digital Rebel XTI I knew

how to use it perfectly within a week, and all I had to do was read the manual, I didn’t feel the need to have to go back to school and major in photography which is great since I only use my camera on and off. I love having a good quality camera for special occasions or for those perfect picture opportunities and I didn’t pay thousands for it and it was easy enough to use!
You can pick up a Canon Rebel XTI just about anywhere that sells upper market camera’s; however, I highly recommend using OnSale.com because of the discount price and the inclusion of a lens kit in the price! |

I am guilty of not only bringing my work home but I am also extremely guilty of bringing my work to bed with me and there are many nights that I am up late with my laptop burning a hole, not only through my sheets but also through my legs. I went on a search for a laptop stand that I could use both on my desk and in the bed at night. I tried the C shaped stands on wheels that resemble hospital bed tables but nothing was tall enough to reach above our king sized bed with high top

mattress so those were out. After the table stand I tried a couple of lap stands and the only one that really stood out was the Logitech Alto Express Notebook Stand. For under $30 this stand isn’t just a great buy it also does it’s job. The rubber feet on the stand create an anchor for your laptop so it doesn’t slide off the stand, it fits comfortably on your lap and also comes with 3-year limited hardware warranty. This stand also raises your laptop to a perfect angle so if you begin to slouch a little like I do as the night draws on you can still see the screen of your laptop perfectly.
The Logitech Alto Express Notebook Stand is the caliber of product you would expect from Logitech, it’s a quality product albeit a little over priced but it is, by far, the most recommended laptop stand that I have ever used and will continue to use it for a long time. |

I spend a lot of time in my office and at one time I had many many picture frames all over the place and then along came the age of digital photos and digital photo frames. I tried a few different digital photo frames until I came across the Kodak Easy Share Digital photo frame. The frames I tried before always had one little thing that didn’t meet my expectations and I was tired of paying big bucks just to be disappointed. The Kodak frame is a pretty recent purchase for me but I

wouldn’t go back to any other frame now if I was paid to. The 8 inch frame is the perfect size for digital photos, the frame sits nicely on my desk without taking up too much room and uploading pictures to the frame is so easy anyone could do it. The main reason I love this particular frame is that I don’t have to hook up to anything to get the pictures to show on the frame, it’s all wireless! The amount of pictures that this frame holds too is unbelievable. This digital photo frame also plays videos and has speakers in it, there is not one thing I have found about this frame that I dislike in the four months that i’ve owned it but if I find one i’ll be sure to let you know.
Kodak also has various other sizes in their Easy Share digital photo frame line so if you’re not able to afford the 8" frame give the other sizes a shot but if you can afford the 8" it’s definitely the way to go! |

I bought these two young men out of necessity but I also loved the concept of the guys actually pushing the books together. There is also a set of bookends by the same manufacturer with the same two men leaning against the books and one with two women leaning against the books. Of the three varieties this was my favorite. My office is absolutely buried under piles of books; however I make regular use of these bookends (I actually have three sets) to maintain some

sort of order to the chaos. The two bookends measure 8"H x 4"L x 3.5"W and are sturdy (made of resin/stone,) unlike many of the flimsy bookends that are being sold by mere visual appeal.The dark color of these bookends is also a great factor when it comes to matching furniture. As you all know my bookshelf in my office is dark walnut so I went with these bookends to maintain the "darker" look.
The price on these leaning man bookends is extremely affordable for the quality you get. Oh and make sure you ignore all the marketing crap about these being ideal for that "macho man in your life" these are the perfect gift for anyone, male or female, they’re just plain cool. |
