Product Review
Unless you've figured out how to clone yourself, you can't be in
two places at once. But you can keep an eye on, say, the baby's
room, the babysitter, an elderly parent who's living on their own,
an empty house, and so on -- even when you're not there.
All you need is a Webcam that feeds live video to your smartphone
or tablet.
The
Stem Innovation iZon Remote Room Monitor is one such
Webcam, and it costs far less than competing products. Ah, but is
it any good?
Yes and no.The concept behind the iZon is excellent, the price
quite reasonable. It's the execution that falls a bit short, though
not so far that you should rule out buying one.
Small, white, and cylindrical, the iZon stands about four inches
high on its curved, magnetic base. That base makes it easy to
position the camera, and can even be hung upside-down.

Recently I told you about
three sweet-sounding tech gifts for Mother's
Day. Of course, not every mom is into music. Let's take a look
at three other gadgets that are sure to bring a smile to Mom's
face.
Ceiva
One of the pioneers of the digital photo frame, Ceiva continues to
offer some compelling products -- and there's a
Mother's Day special that might just seal the
deal.
Ceiva offers two frames, each with an 8-inch screen. The Ceiva
Share is on sale for $99.95, the Ceiva Pro 80 for $119.95. I highly
recommend the latter, which comes with a Wi-Fi adapter.
