USB Charger for Nokia Mobile Phones
>>>>>>>>

Ensure you're never caught out with a flat mobile phone battery. With a 1.5 metre charge cable, a Nokia mobile phone can be charged directly from a PC or laptop's USB port. This happens completely in the background and without affecting the computer's performance. With this convenience, a phone can be recharged whenever the user is at their computer.

Also included is a 9v-to-USB adaptor which provides emergency power through a simple nine-volt alkaline battery. (this gives up to 30 minutes of talk time).

Available from most computer dealers throughout Australia, the USB/9v Mobile Phone Charger has a RRP of $29.95

Palm Bluetooth™ Card
>>>>>>>>>>

Last week on the show, Steve asked me if he could upgrade his Palm device to be Bluetooth compliant and I said 'no'. Thanks to Tom from AllCom Networks in Sydney, I have some further information on the subject. You can actually get a Bluetooth Expansion Card for various Palm models - namely the m515, m505, m500, m130 and m125.

Slot the card into your Palm and you will then be able to send and receive SMS and e-mail messages - and browse Web content - on your Palm handheld via a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone in your pocket or briefcase.

RRP $299 wherever you buy Palm.

Buy online at Organiser World - http://www.ow.com.au/products/networking_LAN_home.htm.
