For a highly addictive read, get your hands on the Twilight Book Series by Stephenie Meyer. This series starts off with a simple move to a small Washington town by a girl named Bella Swan. Bella finds Forks, Washington to be a small, quiet, extremely unsuspecting town that is of course until she meets her lab partner Edward Cullen. Edward also happens to be a Vampire in hiding. Obviously there are twists, turns, love intertwined with danger, and chaos that occur as Edward is “outed” and his interest in Bella deepens. There is no mystery as to why Stephenie Meyer has been able to write 4 books in the Twilight Book series, or as to why book 1 will be released in theaters come November 21st. For any avid reader, or person who enjoys the thrilling hold of adolescent vampire chaos, be sure to check to Amazon for the lowest price on the Twilight saga. There are many editions to choose from including the deluxe collectors edition that includes ragged edges, a ribbon bookmark, cloth cover, and chapter designs.

Nintendo Wii seems to be one of the most elusive console gaming systems ever created. Everyone knows someone who has one, yet no one can ever get his or her hands on one. I even heard a rumor that Nintendo will not even be releasing more Wii’s for the holiday season (can anyone confirm or deny?). That being said, Amazon currently has in stock Nintendo Wii Consoles that can be purchased either new or used. For ages 10 years and up, the Wii console package comes with Wii Sports, controller, and of course motion sensor capabilities. Due to a high demand of Nintendo Wii’s, Amazon is actually limiting the amount of consoles to be purchased to 3 per household. You can imagine, as the holiday season approaches the Wii’s are quickly going to sell out, so be sure to get yours today! For all of your Wii fun, look to Amazon for Wii controllers, games, and various other Nintendo accessories. This is a great opportunity for all of you gamers out there so don’t hesitate too long.

Why is it that no matter how good of a speller you are or WPM you can type, a regular keyboard always seems to make mistakes? Especially the keyboards with wires that you constantly have to shift or pull in order to make sure there is enough slack, this type of thing can really break a persons concentration. The Logitech diNovo Edge Keyboard is one of the most advanced, intuitive, and precise wireless keyboards currently on the market. Using advanced Li-Ion batteries that will run faster and longer (a recharge stand included), this keyboard uses a “Perfectstroke key system” that even distributes typing force for constant fluid typing. The diNovo Keyboard also uses an advanced touch pad for easily scrolling and a touch sensitive volume slider for quick precision audio adjustments. My personal favorite feature of the diNovo Edge keyboard (aside from the highly modern looking design) is the backlit hot keys that fade into the background when not in use. Logitech has gone a step ahead in keyboard advancements in making the Edge, and users have all given it the highest rating possible.

Why is it that no matter how “media oriented” your computer claims to be, the clarity and volume of the built in speakers are always less then expected. If you are trying to actually enjoy all the music you are downloading, try using a set of Harman Kardon PC Speakers. As computer speakers go, the Harman Kardon Soundsticks are pretty good considering it includes 20 Watt RMS subwoofer output, touch control for easy volume adjustment, and an equalizer made specifically to handle tunes through the PC. Outside of clear tones and overall crystal sound quality, the one thing you can be sure about when you set up the 2 speaker sticks and subwoofer is that the Harman Kardon speaker set will get some attention. Unlike many other PC speakers, these babies come with style and attitude! From the picture you can see that they use a highly durable clear plastic design that will make any entertainment system sleek and modern. These speakers will work across any platform (Mac, P.C, etc.), and are being sold at a very reasonable price for the quality. Reviews at Amazon have given the Harmon Kardon speakers an overall rating of 5 stars, so you can be sure it is some quality sound.

For those of you who have been following the careers of Johnny Depp and Time Burton, you should be happy to know that the two are going in on yet another movie together. Alice a take on Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland, will have that identifiable freakiness Burton always brings to the table, and will feature none other then Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter. Could there possibly be a better duo for this movie, umm, unquestionably not. Lets look at the history between Johnny Depp and Tim Burton for a moment. Starting from the most recent we have Sweeney Todd, The Corpse Bride, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Sleepy Hollow, Ed Wood, and of course Edward Scissorhands. It really does seem as if these two guys were cut from the same cloth, or that there was some celestial event that made them come together. In any event, Alice in Wonderland is currently filming but the release date is supposed to be March 5, 2010.
