For your enjoyment, there are two new models from FeedVision’s Mister Tipster. Just plug it into your PC and it will keep track of all your RSS feeds, displaying headlines on its four-line LCD display.

The new models offer access to POP3 and IMAP4 email and third-party software like Winamp.

With prices from $99.95 to $149.95, it might be the gift for the Geek who has everything.

Ticket buyers for Bon Jovi’s October concerts in Newark, New Jersey will find a digital surprise. The ticket package will include a digital iTunes copy of the band’s upcoming album, "Lost Highway." This will come in the form of a code from Ticketmaster which entitles you to download the album beginning June 19. The price will also increase by $9.99, which is the normal price iTunes charges for digital albums.

An online presale for this bundle begins for American Express cardholders June 12 to 14, and to the general public from June 15 to 22. If you want tickets without this add-on, you will have to wait until June 23 to get them.

Similar to the effect caused by the can of hairspray you used in the early ’90’s, computers has now also been found to emit large amounts of carbon dioxide into the air. And the emission is no laughing matter, which is said to range at about 35 tons per year. The Green Shift taskforce has been appointed to oversee the production of the "green PC" service in the UK.

"The green PC service is part of a package of proposals that has the potential to make a fundamental contribution in meeting the challenge of climate change," he said.

"Critical to our approach is that sustainability and inclusion go hand in hand. It’s no use developing solutions that most people cannot afford."

These PC’s, if used effectively, will save 98% more energy than present computer models and will be the first of its kind throughout the world. The service is set for completion in 2008, with distribution in late 2009.
