The iPad has finally made its international debut, meaning that thousands and thousands of new users will be enjoying Apple’s latest device over the coming weeks.
With the launch of the iPad comes the international launch of the iPad App Store, making it possible for us to play Words With Friends with our friends in Australia.
There are already thousands of apps available in the App Store, and with the exception of apps focused on media services like Netflix, ABC or Pandora, most are also available internationally.

1. The Plasma Screen Fireplace
The ‘Beachcomber’ Plasma TV Fireplace is the name and it does just what is appears. It is a real fireplace with an LCD display connected.
And when the TV is not in use it slides away right behind the fireplace at the push of a button.
You’re friends will definitely have something nice to say when you nonchalantly hit a button and your TV disappears. Read the rest of this entry »
