Cool Stuff 2002: Travel Gear

![]() |
Got too many gadgets to carry aroundcell phone, PDA, MP3 player, GPS unit, digital camera? One solution is the eVest, which is chock-full of pockets for devices (including pockets inside other pockets, and a secret pocket) and built-in Velcro-closed channels to run wires through. Hidden collar loops hold your headphones or earbuds close. Made of a lightweight but sturdy water-repellent cotton and nylon fabric with a mesh-lined back and neck area to keep you cool and dry, it has a raised collar and is reinforced at armholes and other stress points. Plus, there's an interior reward tag in case you lose it.

If you're like most people, you'd rather use a mouse with your laptop than whatever else the maker provided. A new travel package from Logitech combines a high-styled, scroll-wheel USB optical mouse with a short cord, plus a USB extension cord and carrying case in a compact unit that takes up little space in your case. If you look at this and wonder what happened to the buttons, never fear. The sleek one-piece aluminum top actuates the two buttons, even if it doesn't look like it. Works like a charm.
