A4 Tech G11-570HX Wireless Rechargeable Mouse

After years of using wired mouses, I finally decided to shift to a wireless one.  Using a wireless mouse would usually mean that you would eventually need to change the batteries or you would need to bring a separate  charger for the batteries which is kind of a hassle and defeats the purpose of portability.  Good think I came across the A4 Tech G11-570HX wireless rechargeable mouse.  I've been using A4 Tech mouse's for as long as I could remember.  I particularly like their durability (they normally break down due to physical abuse), easy of use, elegant design, and reasonable price point compared to their counterparts.

Canon Powershot A2400IS

For quite some time now, I've been wanting to upgrade my old point and shoot camera.  My 3 kids are growing up at an astronomical rate and I wanted to catch those special moments with a better quality camera.  Definitely a DSLR camera captures better quality pictures than a conventional point and shoot camera.  However, with the difference in price and the easy of use, a DSLR camera will not seem to fit my needs.  After all, I didn't want to buy something that I didn't know how to use.  The equipment is definitely only as good as it's user.  Maybe sometime in the future when I get more experience and after some photography classes. But now a good point and shoot camera will be just fine.
