Back from Denver!

 Yep.  I was in Denver.  Sorry I didn't notify anyone about it, but it's kinda hard when I have no internet access at home. 

I went to Denver to go to CEDIA, a worldwide Electronics conference.  It was a lot of fun. (Boy, isn't this sounding like 3rd grade show-and-tell?)  It was completely free for me because it was a business trip, which was uber-awesome, because I got paid hourly, and I won some stuff! 

Here is the first thing I won:














This is what is called a Wireless AV Reciever.  Basically, you put this in a cabinet where you have your Home Theatre Equipment, and if you have a Logitech 890 Remote, you don't need any line of sight to turn stuff on or change channels or nothin'.  It's all RF.  However, since I don't have a Logitech 890 Remote, I realized that this was completely useless to me (Even though it is worth $150 and I could sell it on Ebay.), so I took it to the Logitech Booth, and explained the situation to the rep who had done the training.  He said that he could take the Receiver and give me this:




























This is a Logitech Harmony 880, the 890's little brother.  It is a force to be reckoned with in the world of Remote controls.  Drool over the Full color LCD Screen.  Lose yourself in the sheer beauty of its construction. 

Needless to say, i was pretty happy.  Not only did I get rid of something that was useless to me, but I got a $100 more for free (This remote retails for $250.)  Happy Happy Joy Joy!  

I also got a couple shirts, and a really nice TrippLite Surge protector.  I'm a happy camper.
