Hmmmm, I used to wonder why I can’t access my profile on Propeller.com so I wrote to the about it but no one ever replied. I create a new account and try to submit a post from my blog (this one) and got this message –This domain has been banned for the following reason: “This domain has been banned for spam content.”– Now I am wondering where the hell did that “SPAM” content came from, am I really writing spam content without realizing it?

All I ever submitted to Propeller was one of the few of the posts I create every other day and articles from other blogs I thought people might find interesting. And for that reason, I got BANNED.

When I first saw the picture I thought “oh great, another flip phone” but a closer look reveals a “mouse”, a unique wireless mouse. It is not yet in production but Eclipse states that it is designed for the home, office or on the go. The Touch Mouse features an elegant and sophisticated brushed-aluminum finish and sports an advanced feature set and streamlined ergonomics. It uses the standard three button operation, 1600dpi laser technology, Bluetooth wireless technology with up to 30ft connectivity, 4-way touch scroll pad (and feature audible click feedback) and Battery indicator with power off switch. The Eclipse Touch Mouse is compatible with Windows 7, Windows XP, XP64, Vista and Mac OS X. It also features flexi-grip, a modifiable back leg, which provides flexibility and hand comfort to offer optimum glide height.

The unique touchscrollT module grants you the ease of use associated with a traditional horizontally scrolling tilt wheel and combines it with the precision of a notebook track pad. The touchscroll module’s default mode offers four-way on-screen scrolling, activated by simply moving your finger quicktouchT technology provides you with a host of instantly accessible commands which are accessed through a combination of mouse button and movements. For example, you are able to move back and forward through web pages or even able to open a web browser window simply by pressing and holding the touchscroll module and moving the mouse in one of four directions.

Yeah, another gadget, namely the Archos 7 Android Tablet. It is not yet officially release but there are information about its specification floating around the internet.
