		<title>95 percent of all returned gadgets still work, Americans don&#8217;t read manuals</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Blame it on poor usability or just not reading the frickin&#8217; manual, but it turns out that 95 percent of all returned gadgets actually work despite what customers may say or think. That&#8217;s right &#8212; of the $13.8 billion worth of returned products in 2007, only 5 percent were because gadgets were truly broken. According [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s not the 3G iPhone, but Colorware&#8217;s Stealth iPhone trades in the silver trim and brushed metal back for an entirely matte black motif. It&#8217;s also extraordinarily expensive, weighing in at $675 and $775 to the stock model&#8217;s $399 and $499.

		<title>Virtual Console 60 Port USB Flash Drive Duplicator</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It might not immediately seem clear why someone would need a device that’s capable of copying data to 60 flash drives at once. But just think of all the promotional flash drives you’ve been given over the years that feature PR material or demo software and you’ll get the idea.

		<description><![CDATA[
Got a stack of NES carts at home that you’ve been dying to play while traveling? I didn’t think so. Given the capabilities of the PSP and even the DS, I’m kind of surprised anyone would even want a portable way to play old NES carts when they can be so easily emulated.

The latest addition to the fleet is this RC ‘Jump Jet’ which can take [...]]]></description>

		<title>Full Motion Helicopter / Airplane Simulator Now On eBay</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I’m still surprised that people actually turn to eBay for selling big-ticket items like this. I can understand there’s the opportunity to make a tidy profit from a rare or in-demand item, but I just don’t see a frantic bidding war happening on something like this full motion flight simulator.
