For extremely cheap telephone service using VoIP, I have this device. Instead of having my computer on all the time, I have this box hooked up to my network. I then have a regular telephone plugged into it. Once configured, everything is magic.
I think I purchased mine from CanadaComputers – Cisco SPA122 on canadacomputers.com

I got this for Connecting a PlayStation 2 to a contemporary monitor. It works great.
I also got a Round to Flat Power Plug Convertor – Black to use with a two-prong flat plug.

A basic dictaphone and mp3 player.
It records with horrible static with both its in-built and provided microphone, but its mp3 playback is spectacular. Its utterly shit mp3 interface, slow song switching and no shuffle make it basically useless as a player.
I bought this lower-sized version because it mentioned having a lithium battery. It does not, which pisses me off to no end.
While this works, it is definitely not recommended. Buy something else, even if it costs more.

A reasonable all-around reader, particularly good because it can read CF (CompactFlash) cards.
Great features and high quality.
dx.com calls this Memory Card Reader + USB
 |
A USB key which has two ends, one USB and the other Micro USB.
Though the plastic cap is looser than I want, this has a solid construction. However, it is NOT 60MB/s read, 25MB/s write!

This is a fantastic item.
I got one black and one gold. The black looks great. The gold is okay-looking.
Very solid. Almost metal. Good grip.
The cap stays on tightly.
The MicroSD card goes in the “nose” of the reader, and is easy to insert/remove.
It’s easy to pull out of a computer, even though it is fairly small.

When working with a USB stick or a storage card like an SD or MicroSD card..
Check the read/write speeds (for various file sizes).
