I came upon a realization the other day that technology may have eliminated the need for the PDA, and no, I'm not talking about public displays of affection.

But what, exactly, is taking their place?

Personal air conditioners are superb inventions. Using a full size air conditioner is great, except that it eats energy, makes your electric bill rise through the roof and you cannot take it with you when you go out in the heat. Fans are also a great option, but when it is so hot outside the pavement is melting, fans just seem to circulating hot air. How can you beat the heat? Personal air conditioners come to the rescue.

Christmas is right around the corner and my wife wants a new camcorder to catch all of those glorious Christmas morning memories. While I think still shots are much better for this occasion (can't hear one child screaming that the other's gift is better if there's no sound) she's insisting on motion picture.

The other day at the playground, I watched as what looked like a 5-year-old girl answered a cell phone call from her grandmother.

Ever since I stayed in a hotel suite with a flat screen television, I've wanted nothing more than to have one mounted right above my fireplace. The picture and sound quality combined with the sleek, cool look had me sold from day one. It was just the price that kept me from jumping in on the flat screen television bandwagon. However, after a trip to the store today, I came to realize that the world of flat screen TVs has actually become quite affordable.

People were waiting in line for hours for the new iPhone. Some just wanted to make sure they got theirs the first day of its release, others were hoping to make a profit. So was the iPhone a hit? Yes. Was it a hit on the level of the Nintendo Wii (which is still, many months after its release, still almost impossible to find in stores)? Not really. However, that's not a bad thing. It means that you can get your hands on an iPhone without paying hundreds of dollars over retail.

Gone are the days when all you had to choose from were a handful of public television stations and welcome to an age where the channels on a television can go into the thousands.
