Joyce Valenza’s Neverending Search

A few weeks ago, Martin, one of my students, told me about a couple of his latest purchases from a web tech catalog in China. It took a while, but his package arrived.  Today he showed me his new Dick Tracy-style MP4 watch.  It’s very Martin; it’s not very Joyce.  I hope he doesn’t trip.

But that other purchase.  It’s the mousepad for the girl who has everything and I want one. It functions as both speakers and headphones. It has four USB ports.  When I travel, I can leave my Radio Shack speakers and my mic at home.  I can Skype and play music and project sound from my videos with my mousepad.  I can plug even more stuff in.  I’ll keep you posted on actual quality when my own package arrives.
