Why You Need to Have the Nest?

Maybe you’re wondering what this Nest is. Well, it’s actually a thermostat, but it’s way beyond your ordinary thermostat. Why? Because first, it manages half your home’s energy. If you will look closely at your energy bill, you will see that 50% of it is actually controlled by your thermostat. And no matter how hard you try to cut a percentage off your heating and cooling bill, it will not work unless you program it right by giving it an exact schedule. But this is often easier said than done. Good thing, this Nest provides a solution to that. So instead of you programming the thermostat right, this one actually programs itself in a week, that’s why it’s called The Nest Learning Thermostat. Just tell it what you want it to do, let’s say you want to save energy, and it will program itself. Teach it energy saving habits like turning the temperature down at night or when you leave the house or not turning it to too low or too high temperature. And in time, you’ll be amazed at how this product allows you to save energy while keeping you comfortable at the same time.

But aside from those mentioned above, there’s another good reason why you need to have this Nest – and that is it’s very much accessible online. True, you can adjust the temperature at home even if you are in the office by simply using your Nest account online. Such a convenience, right? Imagine keeping your home warm by adjusting it from the office because you know that it’s very cold on your way home.

The Nest is truly an amazing gadget simply looking at all these conveniences. This will be out soon, so for now, check out these digital thermostat options from Geekie Store.

iPod Nano 5th Generation Review

This week’s Editor’s Choice is the newest iPod Nano – the world’s most popular music player.iPod NanoProduct Summary:

The good:

The new iPod Nano now comes with a video camera so you can shoot video wherever you are, view it on your iPod Nano, and use your computers to easily transfer your videos to YouTube. It also features a built-in FM radio with Live Pause and iTunes Tagging, Genius Mixes that automatically creates up to 12 endless mixes of songs from your iTunes library that go great together, built-in pedometer – making it your new workout companion, as well as mic and speaker. It also comes in an ultra-thin and sleek design with a larger 2.2-inch color display and polished aluminum and glass enclosure, plus you can choose from the nine different colors available: silver, black, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red, and pink.

The bad:

The larger screen comes with a caveat – the click wheel is smaller than earlier iPod Nanos. The camera can’t also shoot photos or HD-quality videos and it’s a bit puzzling that Apple placed the video camera at the base of the unit. Yes, the new Nano fits its camera at the bottom, opposite the click wheel used to start and stop the recording. Meaning, it’s hard to position the Nano for recording without having your fingers in the shot. Storage capacities also remain stuck at 8GB and 16GB.

Bottom line:

Though the new iPod Nano is far less than that of current HD pocket cams, no other MP3 player on the planet packs more features into a smaller package than the 5th Generation iPod Nano.

Price Range: $139.99 – $179.99 – now available at Amazon.
