Wii The People

It’s Not About You, It’s All About Mii

Hanging out to buy a Wii but can’t find one? Relax. Adam Frucci has just the solution for you. Go to SciFi.com to read his entertaining post on how you can still create the popular Mii avatars, even if your Wii hasn’t been delivered yet. ``Well, if it's any consolation,’’ he writes, ``you can still have a bit of Wii-related fun without actually owning a Wii. Miieditor.com will allow you to create a Mii avatar, just like you can on a Wii, right on the computer. Then you can save it to your compute for export as an image or for further editing later.’’ And just for your reference, he has created a version of himself that can be seen with the review.

Gizmo Machismo

It’s A Very Remote Possibility

Always scrabbling around, looking for the remote control? Relax. All is well. Help is at hand. You can now attach it to your head. You think I’m kidding? The Multimedia Remote Control Wrangler is a Velcro-covered headband and chin strap - allowing you to stick as many remotes to it as you could possibly own. Be warned, it’s not a good fashion statement, but it’s the ultimate gizmo for a couch potato. For sure, you’ll never lose the remote again. To see photographs and a product review by Adam Frucci, go to SciFi.com. There is more than one version and the sports model comes in red, white and blue.
