Cool Idea: An Easel as TV Stand
Since I don't watch much TV, updating my hefty idiot box to an ultra slim HD flatscreen is not very high on my list of priorities. But if I did own the latest and greatest in television technology, I would love to use an artist's easel as a stand, like this one featured in House Beautiful. Tech gadgets are always difficult to coordinate with décor, but that's especially true when your design scheme is earthy and traditional.

Call waiting, cell phones, TiVo . . .
Should Having a TiVo Mean You Never See Ads?
When I got a TiVo, my motivation was basically wanting to be able to watch TV shows on my own schedule (whether that has made me smarter or cooler is debatable). Not having to watch commercials was a small reason, but a huge bonus — I paid for the DVR technology, so I felt entitled to control what I watched.
Except having a TiVo isn't synonymous with ad-free TV anymore.
Do You Future-Proof Your Gadgets?
When I buy a gadget, I try to act like it's the last version of the gadget I will buy (except for when I'm hypnotized by new iPhones, but that's not my fault. I was hypnotized!). Much like a car, I kick the tires, look under the hood, or do as much as I can to check out something before I buy it, because I want to have quality things so they last a long time.
Panasonic Creates a Wiimote-Proof Plasma TV
I love how Panasonic unveils a new line of beautiful plasma TVs at the HD Networking Conference in Valencia, Spain and their biggest selling feature is the fact that they can withstand Wiimotes! According to Gamertell, these televisions can resist up to four joules of energy — preventing your wiimote from shattering your TV screen in a game of Wii Tennis, Bowling, Boxing, and the list goes on and on. I guess if you're a Wii fanatic, this television plus an upgraded Wii strap will do the trick — better to be safe than sorry!
Blockbuster OnDemand Service Is Coming to the TiVo
Get ready, get set TiVo owners and subscribers, because BlockBuster OnDemand will be coming to your TiVo later this year.

No announcement on pricing yet, but the OnDemand functionality will be available to TiVo Series 2, 3, TiVo HD, and TiVo HD XL DVRs.
