<p>All you have to do is connect a USB stick, or a FAT32 or NTFS HDD to it, and you&#8217;re ready to roll.  This is a light weight box (less than 4 0z) that you can carry with you in your pocket, and it can play video files up to 1080i.</p>
<p>Not too shabby.  It&#8217;s available in the US now, and coming to Europe later this month.</p>

To make the final numbers as close to reality as possible, users can setup a profile with their basic details &#8211; age, sex, weight, and height.</p>
<p>The Mark of Fitness Exercise Monitor contains other goodies, such as being water resistant, having an “electro luminescent display”, a stopwatch, and displaying the time, day, and date.</p>
<blockquote><p>- Simultaneous display of heart rate and percent of maximum heart rate<br />
- Unit displays calories burned during exercise</p></blockquote>
<p>PS &#8211; it costs <a href="http://www.activeforever.com/p-1460-mark-of-fitness-exercise-monitor.aspx">$68</a>.</p>

<p>Since these three groups of people usually don&#8217;t put much of their money on the bank, there is a need to count bills manually, and <a href="http://www.digitaldrops.com.br/drops/2008/05/contador_de_dinheiro_portatil.html">this device</a> can help out. With a limit of counting 600 bills per minute, it will probably save a couple of hours of work, right?</p>
<p>One of the good features is being portable, in this case it works with 4 AA batteries. On the other hand, it is also possible to use it with a normal adapter. The number of bills is displayed on the LCD screen.</p>
<blockquote><p>Includes a triple counterfeit detection system for ultraviolet, watermark and magnetic ink verification.</p></blockquote>
<p>The Portable Bill Counter is priced at <a href="http://www.securityworld.com/pc-1497-146-ab230-compact-portable-bill-counter-battery-operated.aspx">$96</a>.</p>
