Deal of the Day - 8/13/09

Hello All,

Newegg has a couple TomTom gps units for cheap cheap prices. They have a refurbished 4.3" TomTom One XL for $88.00, a TomTom One without text-to-speech for $69.00 and one with text-to-speech for $87.99. The last two have rebates making them even cheaper, but most people forget to fill those out so I am not including those in the prices.

The One XL is the best deal. It has text-to-speech (it says the street names, a great feature), bluetooth, and a large screen. The other two are good deals as well, depending on your needs. I do not like the turn in 500ft models myself, I like the turn on main st, but both work.

Find the XL here.

Find the non text-to-speech one here.

Find the text-to-speech model here.

Lastly, I am a Garmin man. They make the best GPS's out there. If you plan on using the GPS a lot they are worth the extra money. But if you are not after something you will use a lot, the TomTom is fine. Someone has to be second place :-).

One more bonus thing, both the TomTom and Garmin allow you to plan your routes on Mapquest and then upload the route to the GPS. This is great as a keyboard and mouse beats a touchscreen any day of the week.

Deal of the Day #4 - 8/5/09

Hello All,

Newegg is selling a Samsung Laser Printer for $44.00, with free shipping.

Use code EMCLWLR32 (Exp. 8/10).

Find this deal here.

By itself this is a great deal on a decent printer. If you really want to increase your awesomeness and the usefulness of the printer, you need to add this too it. A network print server. This allows you to hook the printer into your network and print to it from any computer at anytime. This is great for laptops, which we use almost exclusively at our house, then you do not have to move files around, or hook up the printer to the laptop, or anything. It is really great.

I personally use this print server, and it works well for me. It is easy to set-up and works all of the time. It is a bit old now though, so I am sure something better has come along. If I were buying today I would get this one, as it has parallel and usb, and you can hook up a couple of printers to it, ie the laser and a color, or whatever.

The two last things about using a printer server are you can move the printer virtually anywhere you want - in other words you can hide it - the wife loves this. Lastly, you do not need to leave a computer on all of the time for printer sharing. You will save the cost of the print server in a few months worth of use, compared to the costs for keeping a computer on and running 24/7.
