Dreamfarm Shows Off Their Flapple!
Flapple? What’s a Flapple? Well, it’s a Fold-Flat Apple Corer & Slicer with A Mini Cutting Board & Blade Safety Cover! The company says it’t space-saving and portable, thanks to the raised handles that fold-flat. The fold-flat handles lock the base to cover the blades for safe storage. The auto-aligning base is designed to complete cuts without a cutting board. Wide cutter divides all sizes of apples into 8 equal pieces and removes their core. It’s down with ultra-sharp, double-reinforced Japanese stainless steel blades. MSRP $14.99.

3 Capresso Coffee Makers. All available now: July 2024.
First a coffee maker that didn’t make air, but one that is now available.
I love my little 3-5 cup Capresso coffee maker. It doesn’t take up a lot of space and it brews enough coffee for the day quickly. It’s been for sale for a while now, and because it’s still so popular, they introduced the same machine in white. Black is also still available. They are both available now, MSR. Check the Amazon link below.
Now onto two totally new machines, available July 2024. Both these machines feature Capresso’s bright touch-screens. There’s a 12 Cup version with a glass carafe. This new model features an iced coffee mode to brew coffee into the carafe you fill with ice. This model also features an auto-stop function, it can be set to brew 2-12 cups, and it has a generous 60 oz water tank. There’s cord storage in the case and an auto-clean function too. MSRP: $99.99. The second new model does not have the ‘iced coffee’ feature, but comes with a thermal carafe. The MSRP for that is $119.99.
The Capresso 5-Cup Mini Drip Coffee Maker in the video is available now. White or Black.

Danny New & I Chat About Some Of The More Offbeat Gadgets That Were Shown At CES 2024!
Here’s a TV like none other I’ve ever seen!
What may look like a piece of sculpture is the C SEED N1 4K TV, with five panels that unfold silently in about next 25 seconds to create a monumental 137 inch Micro-LED display. It can rotate right or left up to 180 degrees. The indoor model costs around $200,000. And yes, there’s an outdoor model too that raises up to 7+ feet! It’s said to be about $240,000. But, those prices include setup and installation. They make many other models too. Check out the video on their website.
Electric Cars At CES? Plenty. Electric Personal Aircraft? Just One!

It’s a Windows 11 Laptop & An Android Tablet!
The Lenovo ThinkBook Plus Gen 5 Hybrid laptop houses two computers, so you can separate them and run them both at the same time. They also each have their own rechargeable battery. Tablet performs as a full-feature Android tablet on its own when it’s detached, but you can also continue to use the Windows laptop base; just connect it to an external monitor. The laptop base runs Windows 11 and has an Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The tablet runs Android 13 on a Snapdragon 8+ gen 1 SoC, along with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. The price is expected to be $1999.99 and it should be available around May/June of this year.

Lenovo also showed a concept version of an animated color E Ink outer lid for laptops. It certainly would get attention at a meeting or a conference, but ‘Concept’ means ‘we now know we can do it, but will customers want it enough to buy it?’ Reaction to an E-ink laptop cover at CES may determine the answer to question.
