The MX Air Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse from Logitech aspires to proved mouse pointer manipulation well in both 2D and 3D. When used on the desk, the mouse acts like most laser input devices. When lifted from the desk, it uses gyroscopic sensors allowing you to control the mouse in the air. This mouse is clearly aimed at media center PC setups given the bevy of buttons it has. The mouse has a small USB dongle which allows for a range of about thirty feet. The mouse only works in Windows XP or Vista. The Logitech MX Air Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse is available directly from Amazon for $150. |

I like hammers, even though I don’t use them much these days, and I don’t have a problem with wooden block, I used to play with them when I was a little tyke. But I find combining wooden blocks with various phrases silk screened on them and then pounding them with a gavel a bit over the top. This summarizes Slam-A-Gavel rather succinctly. It comes in a 7.25″ x 7.25″ x 2.5″ wooden box with nine wooden cubes each with six potential sources of angst printed on them (this is the full list of the stress words). The box exposes and elevates the center block for you to slam as many times as necessary with the provided gavel. Seems like just a gavel and a smaller wooden block would provide equal stress relief but it seems like the noise might garner some unwanted attention. Must be why those squeezy balls are more popular for stress relief. In any event you can buy Slam-A-Gavel from their store front for $35. |

Last there is the USB to DVI Display Adapter at Sewell Direct that can run displays 1280×1024 at 32-bit color thanks to its 128MB of memory. It is available for preorder for $120. |
