Kristy has wanted a pedometer for ages, so I surprised her by ordering one from Amazon. It arrived today – only 3 days to ship, that’s awesome! So far she’s walked 1167 steps. She needs to take it to the gym so she can configure it properly (walk a set distance, check how many steps it took, then calculate stride length) – but it certainly shows promise of being a very nifty little toy.
And of course, I couldn’t buy a toy for her without getting a new toy for myself, too! Actually this one is for both of us – a remote for the iPod. It’s pretty wicked – has a range of 60 feet (20 metres?), and it transmits via RF (instead of IR like normal remotes) so it works around walls! It even comes with a little cradle for the remote, so you can strap it onto (for example) the handlebars of your bike. Very, very cool.
