Today's online shopping.

I did some shopping today online for some products that may be relevant for a lot of you:

I've been on the "let me know when you stinking have it" list for some time, and B&H finally have these in stock. If you have one of the highly recommended Kodak HD pocket camcorders, then this little remote may come in handy.


A Google product search only brings up two retailers with these instock. The Labtec Elite 840s are known for outstanding quality for the price. I've tried $200+ Sennheisers, and, despite being not as comfy, the Labtecs sound incredible. The swivel about the earcups is fragile, so this is my third pair... in the last 8 years. Going through a $16 (free shipping) pair of headphones every 2 years is going to take you awhile to reach $200. Highly recommended.


I just got a 3M air purifier (everyone should have an air purifier!) that didn't come with a carbon pre-filter, which sucks. (Without a cheap pre-filter, the expensive main filter gets used up WAY faster). I was looking for a big sheet of pre-filter I could cut up myself, and the above link is the only source I could find. For $14 + shipping, I can cut that sheet into 5 sheets for my air purifier... not a bad deal.


Completely unrelated, but so awesome everyone should try it. David Rio's Tiger Spice Chai. Me and my buddy Steve are Chai connoisseurs, and this stuff is by far the best. Imagine the sweet endorphine la-la land creamy goodness of hot chocolate, with the buzz of coffee, and the flavour of tea... its the ultimate hot beverage... come to think of it... it IS relevant... THE NEW OFFICIAL GEEK BEVERAGE!
