It is also "window shopping season"--too late for back-to-school and not quite time to buy holiday gifts.
Unfortunately for my bank account, I found something that I think I need: Live Luggage! It's either buy a set of these mobile personal storage vehicles to tow behind my wheelchair in the airport or get a herd of pack animals to keep up with my bloated collection of essential travel items.
This innovative luggage system incorporates electric motors in the suitcase wheels powered by a researchable lithium on battery to ease travel. The literature at Live Luggage describes the system as having a "patented Anti-Gravity handle, which places 85% of the weight over the wheels." But the wordsmiths at Engadget blog make the world's first power-assisted personal luggage system sound like something from James Bond's private collection.
I think the marketing department at Live Luggage should do up a set with the Rolling Rains Logo and fly me out to test-drive them, don't you?
I am sure I could book my tickets faster at Orbitz and get those better airfare prices if I had Designer Appliances' "Virtually Hands Free™ Mousing System."
There is something compelling about their approach. Clearly they are innovators with a thorough knowledge of the principles of Universal Design as they explain:
"Designer Appliance's Anti.Fatigue™ Products are designed to allow users to work in a position that Ergonomists and Therapists call 'Functional Neutral'. This is a position in which you are able to work while in a 'Neutral' or near resting posture. Limbs that are comfy tend not to ache and if people don't ache they are less likely to injure!
It is a Universal Design as by removing the circumstances that can create hand impairment it also removes the limitations that mousing creates for some persons with disability.
