1) This universal device works with all tablet and smartphone displays, gliding smoothly across the screen to make note-taking and drawing easier than ever before. A stylish thing, silver in color and with a convenient pocket clip, the device features a durable silicone rubber tip that will last for years. Use this invention to help keep your screen free of those messy fingerprints.

2) How about adding a little comfort to your computing setup? This device, with its non-slip base, helps ensure correct (but comfortable) hand position while typing and mousing. The soft foam responds to your body weight and warmth, but never loses its shape.

3) It’s thin, it’s sleek, it’s light. You can use it on your desk, your lap, or just about anywhere within range. Although it’s small, it has a “big feeling”. Oh, and there’s a secret. Don’t tell anyone, OK? You don’t really have to use it with a Mac! Yep, it’s a standard Bluetooth device, so you can use it with your iPad or iPad mini, your Windows desktop or laptop, or whatever. As long as your smartphone, tablet, or computer supports Bluetooth, you can use this device with it.

4) When you care enough (about yourself) to listen to the very best. This device provides lossless audio for crystal-clear wireless sound (up to 50 feet away) and the ability to sync up to 4 pairs of headphones to a single audio source. It includes a wired mic, bass boost, volume control and mute switch, and passive noise cancellation. The earpieces feature soft memory foam cushions for hours of comfort.

Work in pairs and answer the questions. Do you find any of these gadgets useful in your life? Would you like to have them? Why? Say how your life would be different if you had these devices? Is the invention of such modern things important for people?
