HD VISION Sunglasses…Yes, the “HD” Stands For “Hi Def” [Hd]

With all the confusion around 720p, 1080i, 1080p, HD, full HD, Blu-ray, HD DVD, ACVHD and the pesky digital television transition, thank goodness we’ve the fine folks who make infomercials standing in the ready to soothe our exhausted brains.

Note: this is not a parody. Sometimes the world just feels like one. [Seen On TV]

QuickerTek has made available the TriBand, an add-on antenna for Apple’s Time Capsule. Here are the reasons you don’t want one:

Unsightly. Just look at it. And what happens if those skinny wires get a good yank?

Expensive. The DIY upgrade is $130. Opt for the full service option and the price jumps to $200. And remember that the box needs to be opened up to make the modification, which also means you’ll void your warranty, possibly adding future costs.

The only reason we have the ability to see to own a TriBand is that you could tuck the whole uglified kit into the attic to keep your backups burglar-proof. Or you could leave the Time Capsule in full view and just stick some old frayed wires through one of the holes, which should offer the same deterrent.
