Ambient 5 Day Weather Forecaster

This is the latest gadget from Ambient, the people who brought us the Orb (watching The Entourage?). I've got nothing funny to say about it, assuming anything I say is ever funny. I just want one.

The Ambient 5 Day Weather Forecaster gets weather updates from Accuweather via the Ambient wireless network, which covers most of the country, or at least the more densely populated areas. It displays updates on a pretty crappy display, but wait - it's e-ink! Crappy, yet wickedly cool!

OK, I'm back. I decided to order one and come back to brag. Not in stock anywhere I looked. Well, somebody called "Stacks Home Furnishings" didn't say out-of-stock, but they want a 35% premium. Bastards.

There's always next Christmas.

Comments:
Merry Christmas in February to me. I got one, and I love it. Oddly enough, Jen likes it, too. Too bad I bought it out of my private toy fund before I knew it had such widespread appeal to the rest of the family!
