I reviewed the original Myvu about a year ago, and while it was a fun gadget, it had some limitations. The new Myvu Crystal solves the first one by displaying in 640×480 pixels instead of 320×240. Huge difference, and for me, the difference between preferring to just watch on the iPod screen and using the Myvu. The glasses themselves are also less nerdy looking as well. And, while the improved resolution makes me want to use video eyewear a lot more than before, its real value shines when paired with video games. Not only is it more realistic to simulate actual body movements (think any of the golf games, for example), the Wii is just made for something like this in the first place. Racing and flight simulator games are at their best here.

Last is one of the best backup tools I know of – NTI Shadow . Shadow is a continuous backup, in that it backs up what you’re doing right now, all the time, so you don’t have to remember to schedule a backup later. Every time you save a file, Shadow creates a second copy. You can specify where to backup, and I use this frequently with a USB drive. Shadow is smart enough to only try to backup when there’s actually a drive in the computer, and I haven’t seen a big enough drain on system resources to find a reason to discontinue using it – especially for high-risk or special backup situations.

So, I was chomping at the bit this year at CES to check out the much-heralded flash drives. Corsair sent me their FlashSurvivor 32GB to test, and I was like my kid at Christmas. While admittedly pricey, this baby can hold pretty much whatever you want to throw on it. The Corsair drives are also bootable, so you can store full versions of operating systems (worst offenders starting with “V” shall go unnamed) or otherwise use it to diagnose problems. The FlashSurvivor is also a true survivor, with some reviewers reporting that they washed, baked, froze, boiled and even drove over their drives. Me? I love mine too much.
