Apple’s new Remote should not be overlooked

Yes, Apple has put out a slew of new products with the new MacBook, iMac, Mac Mini, and Magic Mouse, but lets not forget an update to the Mac Remote. It is reported that this remote will have the same all-aluminum coat that is on the newest Mac products, and it is designed to control the iPod, iPhone, or Mac with play/Pause, menu, volume and track skip buttons.

It is compatible with any Mac introduced 2005 or later with integrated IR receiver, but you will probably need a $49 iPod Universal dock for the iPod or iPhone.

    As you can imagine by its name, the GPS Red Light Camera Detector is what every “The Need For Speed” fan really needs, because it will save them a lot of money in terms of tickets.

    Thanks to the its database that contains over 6,000 red light and speed camera locations, you’ll be safe in Canada and the US. It has a GPS with a 1.6-inch display screen that shows your current location, and also the distance you are from the red light. Besides showing an alert message on the screen, the system also uses audio to get your attention. Sadly it costs too much, $200 for the hardware and $20 after the first year which is free.
