Innovation will never stop developing. This is the best thing that we can say about the development of technology of this past decade. 10 years ago we might not imagine that today cellphone is in almost every pocket of people. At that time, the price of cell phone is really expensive. How about computer? Well, we never know that computer can be so small today. Many people now have more than one PC in their house.

Development of technology and communication (esp. internet) is really fast and sometimes unpredictable. That is why we can say that innovation is always going and going on. Many people also try to modify many new gadgets into another amazing gadget.

You can never imagine that Playstation 3 modification that has been made recently. He can modify Playstation 3 into a slim one or we can say as slimmer that slim Playstation that you have ever seen. He also use ivory as the border of the Playstation. In the other side, he added more modification by putting 17 inch screen. The person’s name is Ben Heck, now he sells his modification of 17” Playstation Slim Laptop and he wants to give the result for charity.

Every provider such as Verizons, AT&T, Sprint, or others have many packages offered to the customers. Some of them look really cheap for the costumers so that they are attracted to take the package. This is one of the tricks which has been used by those providers so that people can buy a gadget and also sign of contract using their telecommunication service whether it will be voice service, internet service, or 3G data service. This is why people have to be careful when reading those ads from the providers, because those ads are sometimes so tricky.

The package will look so cheap at the beginning, but if you have closer look, you can realize that it is really expensive than you buy it directly from stores. For example, recently Verizon offered cheap Gateway Netbook with 3G connectivity (built-in) by only 150 dollars to the customers and also bundled with Verizon’s internet package contract for two years. Well, at first, it looks so cheap because today we can see that many Netbooks with the same quality cost over 400 dollars. But, you have to see the 2 year contract with Verizon.

What you really have to do is to count for the two years contract and you can see that this package is not cheap at all. It is just the same or even cheaper price if you buy the Netbook from any computer stores.
