This time of year not only brings in the holidays, but some great TV as well. You have the FedEx Cup, NASCAR, NFL, NHL and a variety of programming. To keep up with all that is going on, you need a universal remote that is easy to use and can stand up to the constant clicking! I have had several universal remotes; however there was always one device that just wouldnt communicate with the remote. The Philips Prestigo SRT9320 universal remote control is the first remote I have had that completely controls my DirecTV receiver, DVD/VHS combo unit and my surround sound system! The nice thing about the Philips Prestigo is it was extremely easy to program all these devices, and is a breeze to use. There is no need to try to remember which channel is ESPN or the Golf Channel, as once the Prestigo is programmed, you can use the channel logos that show up on the digital screen to select the channel you like. It is a lot easier to look down and see the Golf Channel logo, click and you are watching in no time. You can also set-up activities such as watch a movie that will turn on the DVD player, television and surround system with all the proper settings for optimal viewing! It doesnt matter who you are shopping for www.consumer.philips.com has products for everyone! Philips offers great electric shavers for mens grooming, products for new moms, Spa-at-home products for her as well as their signature consumer electronics products such as HDTVs, Blu-Ray DVD players, MP3 Players, home theatre systems and anything else you need! Philips Electronics is truly one stop shopping for all your household needs.

I am adding a new page for manufacturers who support my column. This page will be for press releases I feel will benefit my readers. This will be a nice addition for manufacturers to add additional information on products I review or that I am scheduled to review. As you can imagine, I receive several press releases each day. Not all will be published on this page. To view this page visit http://gottahavegadget.com/?page_id=510

I’m sure you have all heard the term Freshman 15! It is very common to go off to school and gain at least 15 pounds in your freshman year. I have the perfect gadget to help keep the weight off. If you are bringing a Wii with you to school, make sure you also bring EA Sports Active for the Wii. I will be the first to admit to saying, OK what can a video game do to help me lose weight?

I love this time of season, because I try to mix up the products for both golfers and non-golfers. I know many people who read West Coast Golfer who are secretly shopping for themselves, but are also looking for some great items for someone special. If that special someone travels a lot or is on the road for their job, a great present for them would be the Acer Aspire One netbook. At 2.8 pounds and 1 inch thick this Acer Aspire is perfect for anyone who travels. No longer do you need a big bulky laptop to give you the access to information and connection to email and the Internet that will let you stay in touch. When it comes to performance, the Acer Aspire One is powered by the Intel® Atom processor, and has a massive 160 gig hard drive! The 11.6 inch screen provides 720p HD video which is great for viewing documents, photos or video clips. Of course when it comes to a laptop computer, connectivity is a must. The Acer Aspire One has built-in wi-fi and Bluetooth adapters which connects you on-line quickly. Available in a four different colors the Acer Aspire One laptop would be the perfect present for someone who is looking for performance and portability. Check out the Acer Aspire One at us.acer.com.
