by Postmaster General | Apr 5, 2013 | Apple Inc., Deal of the Week
We’ve been doing this whole Deal of the Week thing for a while now. And a lot of the bargains we’ve featured have been on cables, chargers, docks, and adapter sets that work with older-model iPhones, iPads, and iPod touches.
Apple is gradually moving its iOS devices away from the venerable 30-pin connector to the 8-pin Lightning connector.
If you’ve been waiting for a deal on a Lightning cable – something that will actually work with your sleek and sexy iPhone 5 – then this week’s DOTW is for you.
Get all the details here.
UPDATE 04.10.13: Our Medford location is now sold out. Our Bend location currently has nine of them in stock.

We live in an age of constant surveillance.
It feels like no matter where you go – road intersections, convenience stores, highway passes, retail storefronts, warehouses, banks – there’s a camera pointed at you. And the big search engines have cam-planes flying overhead and cam-cars rolling down our streets, snapping photos of… well, everything. It’s not paranoia when somebody really is watching your every move.
Well, now you can strike back – with your very own surveillance camera, one that can connect over Wi-Fi or Ethernet to your computer, even if that computer is halfway around the world. Because this particular video camera has its own web server built into it, meaning it can route a video feed to computers connected to your local area network (LAN) – or across the Internet itself.
Best of all, it costs only 40 bucks. Find out all about it here.

You probably spend a lot of time on or around your computer. Your workspace is an important part of your life, so why not make it as comfortable and attractive as possible? And what better way to enhance your computer environment than with a chain of cool color-cycling LED stars? They plug right into any open USB port – no batteries or AC adapter required. And at a price just south of five bucks, you can afford to buy several – to give away as gifts to friends, relatives, co-workers, bosses, and random strangers.

Ready. Aim. Fire!
Most of the time, our DOTWs are geared toward helping you get things done faster, or better, or cleaner. They’re productivity aids or device enhancements – aiming to help you and your computer be all you can be.
Not this week. This week, we’re bringing you a small, gaudily-colored circus cannon that plugs into your USB port. A circus cannon you can aim and fire using your keyboard, your mouse, or (if you have one) your joystick. It fires three foam-tipped rockets up to 10 feet, at velocities exceeding what you might reasonably expect. And it serves absolutely no useful purpose, other than having fun.
And that’s OK.

Looking for a high-quality, spill-resistant, full-size 104-key USB keyboard that works with pretty much any recent model computer? How much would you pay? $20? $30? What if the keys were printed in high-contrast black-on-green, with incredibly easy-to-read oversize letters? $50? $60?
What if the dagnabbed thing glowed in the dark?
Well, this week, you can get such a keyboard, which normally retails for $49.99, for an almost criminally cheap $9.99. Find out all about this week’s DOTW here.

Next time you’re called upon to access the innards of your kid’s toy, tighten your spouse’s eyeglass frames, or disarm an errant nuclear device, be prepared.
Nothing strips screwheads faster than the wrong driver for the job. Try to “make do” with one of your standard-sized screwdrivers, and disaster looms. So pick up this precision driver set, and pick it up cheap. Because this week, it’ll set you back a laughable 10 bucks. Think about it: a potentially world-saving toolkit for the price of a couple lattés. Easy choice.
