I have just won a bid on eBay for an Ethernet VoIP phone. The device ended up costing about $75 which is a very good price really. I cannot wait to get it and plug it in. At the moment I have an ethernet to phone interface plugged into an old phone. This new device will have caller ID, a phone book and things like that. More information will be provided when I get it in a few days.

Macworld has been on today in San Franscisco. Apple have just released their new intel based wares. They have released a new intel based Laptop and iMac. Cool. They have also released an FM radio and remote for the iPod video and nano. Nice.

PlayAgainGames has a entire list of variations for rules for Monopoly. This includes things such as having two sets of tokens which move, doubling property purchase prices or allowing you to build on properties without owning all the properties in the group. It might be interesting to play with some of these rules. Time to get the Monopoly set out again!

Also, InventGeek has a project that turns a Oral B toothbrush into a lockpick. Cute idea.
