The Motorola Sparrow

Tim McKeough — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 16:45:17 -0500

Think of the Motorola Sparrow as an iPhone for retailers. Equipped with a touch-sensitive back panel that keeps the screen free for viewing, the wireless prototype device integrates myriad existing technologies and features into a single palm-held powerhouse. Need to check inventory? A built-in bar-code scanner can retrieve that information. Want to see a customer's profile? The Sparrow can pull one up after detecting a loyalty card or other relevant RFID tag. Want to win brownie points with a shopper by helping her jump the checkout line?

Spend: 10 Years of the Euro

Theunis Bates — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 15:30:45 -0500

When 11 E.U. nations swapped francs and lire for euros on New Year's Day 1999, traders called the new money a "toilet currency." Nope! The euro -- now the coin of 15 E.U. realms -- has proved so strong that Alan Greenspan said it could become the world's main reserve currency. Not that all national identity was lost: Each country customizes one side of euro coinage. here are the 1-euro coins of the original eurozone.

Tech Watch: Why Is Movie Rental Still So Damn Difficult?

Chris Dannen — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 11:30:12 -0500

The year is 1990, and you want to rent Dances With Wolves. You go to the local video store, put down a couple of dollars, and head home with visions of Costner alight in your head. You are happy. Worst case scenario, your movie is checked out, and you have to rent Ghostbusters again. Not exactly a catastrophe; you can buy some Raisinettes at the counter to cheer yourself up.

Lasik Eye Treatment

lasik eye surgery — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 09:50:51 -0500

A LASIK enhancement at Dr David Kleiman is nearly identical to a primary LASIK procedure, except for one aspect. Rather than using a microkeratome or laser to create a corneal flap, the surgeon performing a LASIK enhancement uses specialized tools.
Variations of the procedure at the include epi-LASIK and custom wavefront LASIK, in which wavefront technology is used to map the surface of the eye, creating a custom ablation.

Lasik Eye Treatment

lasik eye surgery — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 09:49:34 -0500

Some people are confused about the purpose of Dr.David Kleiman. LASIK is intended to improve your visual acuity (your ability to see clearly), reducing your dependence on eyeglasses and contact lenses. It is not a treatment for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or other eye diseases.
An instrument called a microkeratome is used in eye surgery to create a thin, circular flap in the cornea. Another, newer way of making the flap is with a laser.
