Read MoreWe're not trying to give robots too much power over our lives, but let's face it...there are some things that we'd rather not have to do, and our robot underlings would be perfect fill-ins. That is, of course, until they become self aware and jump onto our faces until we surrender to their immense robotic power. But that won't happen for a long time, so don't worry about that just yet.

Hi Molly and Jason (and also Kelley, but she won’t be there)
I’ve just found the ultimate workstation. The Emperor by NovelQuest [ http://www.novelquest.com/emperor.html ]. Its the only workstation worthy of getting the job done if you’re planning on bringing everyone over to the Dark side…
So you guys might consider getting CBS to buy these for all of you — launch is in July, price unannounced.
I so want this it hurts. 
Found via Gizmodo [ http://gizmodo.com/5015730/emperor-workstation-belongs-in-the-death-star-my-office ]
Love the show!
--Waleed
P.S. Where is that violin piece from “What the hell?” from? I just love it, but the needle scratching and running off ruins it every time! 
Hey Guys!
In episode 93, you discussed the leisure tub. Its pure awesomeness inevitably brings up the question: What if it becomes self-aware? You’d call it from work and tell it to set the water and change the channel to Oprah, and it responds, “I’m sorry, Kelly, I’m afraid I can’t do that.” And then, when you do get home and get in the tub, it turns the water up to scalding and kills you. Think about that.
--Niko
P.S. Bye Kelly! We miss you!
I noticed that we do not have a Facebook group for the Gadgettes podcast. I asked Jason about it–he said he has too much stuff that he’s busy with, so I created one. So, let all your listeners know: all they have to do is search for “Gadgettes” on Facebook and they should find the group. If you have a Facebook, please join.

I HAVE THE HOT DOG TOASTER!! its probably not exactly the same one, since mine is called….the hot-diggity-dogger!!

too bad Kelly isnt there to read this

As much as we support pro-active parenting, we have trouble describing the "My Little Eye" baby cam as anyting but creepy. Even its name is disturbing to us.
There's certainly nothing wrong with the concept of baby monitors; it's the eye part that we object to. It just seems wrong to introduce surreptitious monitoring in the form of something so innocent as a crib-side flower, much less one that has an unsettling eyeball in the middle of it.
The last thing kids need is another reason to have nightmares so early in life. And as Slashgear says, the $265 price won't benefit the emotional state of their parents either.
Molly Wood gets her
gadget on as part of the Gadgettes duo in addition to her duties on
Buzz Out Loud and the Buzz Report. Favorite gadgets include TiVo, Treo,
and the Logitech Harmony 880. 
Kelly Morrison has
been at CNET since 1996 as a features editor
for CNET Download.com. In addition to moonlighting as a gadgette, Kelly
is Director of Content Development for CNET. 
Jason Howell takes
time from producing podcasts for CNET to bark (and sometimes sing)
unintelligable nonsense as an honorary Gadgette.
