Barnes & Noble Offers Free ebook Download

Barnes & Noble has their own idea of what an ebook should be. Their application is a free download that allows you to read titles on your PC, Mac, Blackberry or iPhone. Undoubtedly in an effort to promote that and keep in competition with the Kindle, the company has teamed with AT&T to offer free, unlimited WiFi in all of their stores, although there was limited usage prior to now. In addition, those who take advantage of the program will have access to over 700,000 titles, coupons, new title announcements and dates of book signings.

Such a deal. Mitsubishi has begun to pack a free VUDU with each TV. Frank Martin, VP of Marketing claims that since most future TV will be equipped with streaming, the company's thinking is that until that time, free takes an excellent second place. Customers will also get a $50.00 service credit.

Freakin' Friday! Shop Online for Cables

A couple of weeks ago, we needed a new cable. Thinking that it would be a simple and inexpensive thing, we went to our nearest electronics where the least expensive USB extension cord was $15.00. We managed to buy one at half price when we found one in that had been repackaged, but we certainly learned our lesson. The moral here is that before you let that sales associate talk you into saving your gas by buying an overpriced cable, you can probably buy online for a fraction of the price. Here are some examples of some that are each less than $2.00:

• USB Extension Cable
• Gold-plated HDMI Cable
• PS3 Cable to DVD LCD HDTV
• 3.5mm RCA Audio Video to AV Cable for iPod
• Audio Video RCA Cable

Freakin' Friday! Flip UltraHD Camcorder

If you still haven't made your claim to fame on YouTube, Flip has a new UltraHD Camcorder. Our Flip has enabled us to upload with such simplicity that we are positively addicted to shooting everything in sight (including our cat.) They have also released a tripod that Amazon will toss in for free (or another accessory) if you purchase before May 13. Sure there are others for less, but as far as we are concerned, if it ain't broke...
