Wireless Wendy The Weather Wizard




This product actually sounds like is should be reviewed as a children’s book on one of my book blogs.   It is a wireless remote thermometer.   It was less than $15.00 and had more positive reviews on Amazon than any others I found for twice the price.

One note if you do buy it is that they should bold print that you install the battery in the remote thermometer before you install it on your remote display.  Luckily I did that but since my hands often work faster than my brain,  it was pure serendipity that I did it in the correct order.  The manufacturer predicts dire results if you do it out of order.  I suspect a rain of locust or a red sea. 

The set up was easy.  I tested it by putting it in the fridge.   The display gives you time,  date, inside and outside temperature in fahrenheit or centigrade, your choice.   The cutsy part comes in with the graphic that has Wendy changing attire based on the temperature. 

It works fine and I will come back in a few months to report on how it held up.    

If reviewing a product, it may have been received free of charge. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
