The Magnet of Google's Nexus 7

Do you figure out how Google's Nexus 7 make money? As of today it continue to magnet buyer, as it sells less than million tablets each month.

The $199 starting price on Google’s (GOOG) Nexus 7 was widely expected to bolster sales, but no one could really project how the affordable Jelly Bean tablet would be received considering the tablet’s relatively limited distribution and the mass market’s all-around indifference when it comes to most Android tablets. According to Asus chief financial officer David Chang, however, Nexus 7 sales have grown significantly and now total nearly 1 million units each month. “At the beginning, it was, for instance, 500K units a month, then maybe 600, 700K,” Chang told The Wall Street Journal in an interview. “This latest month, it was close to one million.” The figure doesn't approach iPad sales, which are in excess of 1 million units each week, but they are impressive nonetheless considering how much wider iPad distribution is and how much Apple (AAPL) spends promoting it compared to the Nexus 7.

The Samsung Chromebook

Experience the different speed and ease in browsing using a laptop that was built for it.
The Chromebook is great for a $249 device, and it shows what an ARM-based system can do, but if you're not OK with Chrome OS, you should steer clear. Those who don't spend the bulk of their computing life in reach of Internet access -- wireless or wired -- should think twice, too.
Chrome OS, for the uninitiated, puts a version of Google's Chrome browser on top of a Linux foundation. Where Linux PCs run Linux apps, though, Chrome OS devices run browser apps. That's huge, since you can do more and more on the Web. But you can't run several popular programs -- iTunes, Skype, Portal 2, Microsoft Office, Photoshop, Spotify, or the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search program, to name a few.
The advantage: The Samsung Chromebook is a lightweight, thin, and inexpensive laptop for those times when all you need is a powerful browser.
The unfavorable: The Chromebook's low price comes out in its build quality and performance.
The offer: The $249 Samsung Chromebook is a good extra computer for cloud-loving Google-centric Web users.

The Acura MDX (2012)

If you are planning to have a car, here is an option for you to choose..
Acura has three SUVs: a smaller five-seater called RDX, and the BMW X6-style ZDX, which sits on the MDX platform but ditches seven-seat practicality for a coupe profile. That means the MDX is the largest, most practical Acura you can buy. In America, it costs $43,280, where the comparable BMW X5 35i retails at $47,500. That’s a decent saving, and the Acura comes very well equipped too: rear-view camera, power tailgate, and that third-row of seats are all standard.
The MDX is set up to be a comfortable ride, which actually suits the proposition perfectly – leave the sportier stuff to those ZDX owners – so it’s a cushy if sometimes slightly rolly ride through the corners.
The MDX goes with a 3.7-litre naturally aspirated V6 that’s mated to a six-speed auto gearbox. The engine serves up decent levels of performance, but the 2084kg kerbweight and lack of turbocharged torque means you need to work it hard if you’re getting a hurry on, at which point it’s generally refined nature loses a little of its sheen.
The MDX is a good, practical family car, one that marries the versatility of a large people carrier with the added benefit of four-wheel drive and a more premium, upmarket feel. It’s just a shame that there’s nothing comparable in Honda’s UK line-up – the CR-V is a five-seater only – that Honda has no plans to bring it here and that the lack of any diesel powerplants makes it pretty irrelevant to us Brits.

The LG Nexus 4

This phone will absolutely give you another experience that the previous won't.
The expansive 4.7-inch display has a 1,280x760-pixel resolution and it's all driven by a 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor. LTE is a big miss, and the 8-megapixel camera is not as robust as I'd like, but the handset's sizable 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage show that LG has finally found its flagship phone
While the Galaxy Nexus showed plenty of curves, the Nexus 4 is all angles and straight lines. Based on the design of the LG Optimus G, it is the very definition of a slab phone.
Like the original Nexus One, the LG Nexus 4 delivers the latest version of Google's Android software -- in this case, 4.2 Jelly Bean -- without any manufacturer or carrier skins. Some notable improvements to the operating system include what Google calls the Photo Sphere plus Gesture Typing. Photo Sphere is a feature that lets you stitch multiple images from various directions into a 360-degree super panorama. Gesture Typing, as its name implies, is a text input method that allows users to string letters together by dragging fingers through them on the keyboard similar to Swype.

The Sony Reader PRS-T2


Sony says the "glare-free" E-Ink Pearl V220 touch screen has been "enhanced for long-term reading." There are new social features (Facebook and Evernote), a simplified home screen, and an updated default book layout intended to make it easier to organize and find books. Smoother zoom in and out and improved continuous page turns are designed to improve the reading experience. There are two built-in English-language and four translation dictionaries. Battery life has been doubled from one month to two with wireless off, and the device's control buttons have been redesigned.

The advantage: The Sony Reader PRS-T2 is a compact and lightweight touch-screen e-book reader with built-in Wi-Fi and fast page turns. It offers access to a large catalog of e-books, magazines, and newspapers via Sony's online store, plus online loaners from your local library. It also supports EPUB files, and is compatible with any e-book store that uses the Adobe DRM format. Its battery lasts for up to two months on a single charge with Wi-Fi off.
The unfavorable: At $129, the PRS-T2 costs $10 more than competing models that have an integrated light. The Sony bookstore isn't as extensive as Amazon's or B&N's, and the Sony Reader app isn't currently available on the iPhone and iPad.
The offer: The Sony PRS-T2 is a perfectly good touch-screen e-reader whose only sin is that it doesn't have any competitive advantages over Amazon's and Barnes & Noble's e-readers.
An option to choose from available products in the market today. Be smart and intelligent in choosing your gadgets.

The Range Rover LWB (2013)

This vehicle is not so common but lets take a look at it and get familiar..
Here's a look at the stretched, long-wheelbase version of the new Range Rover. Due in 2013, the Range Rover LWB is aimed at the plutocrats' markets in Asia, Middle East and the US where space is seen as the ultimate luxury.
Expect plenty of personalisation options – a step on from the Autobiography Edition and its lavish accessories and trim choices.
The Range Rover LWB is expected on sale in 2013. We'd wager that a debut at one of the motor shows in a target market would make sense to the marketing bods.

The Nissan Extrem SUV 2012

Here is a new look and design from Nissan, it will certainly catch your curiosity to look at it.
Nissan is looking to bring a splash of colour and outlandish design to Brazil's streets with their latest creation: the Extrem SUV concept. It's an eye-grabbing response to the 'more affordable locally produced vehicles, which tend to be conservative in design, colour and specification', according to company Senior Vice President Shiro Nakamura.
It's certainly another bullish-looking Nissan design in the Juke mould, which is exactly what the team behind it were after. Nissan's designers nicknamed the Extrem 'The Baby Beast', admitting the look they wanted was close to a road-going rally car, with a butch stance and muscular surfacing. Spot the gills behind the front wheels that look like exaggerated GT-R vents and you'll see what they're on about.
Brazil has played a part too: Nissan wants the Extrem to reflect the diversity and flamboyance of the country - appropriate, since the Extrem makes its debut at this week's Sao Paulo motor show. Much of the design was based in Sao Paulo, while the metallic orange paint is said to reference Brazilian nature. The patterns atop the roof are a hat tip to what Nissan calls 'iconic Brazilian graphics'.

Scott Forstall and John Browett is moving out from Apple

If you want to be updated on the inside of Apple company, here is what you should know..

Apple announced on Monday that Scott Forstall, the senior vice President of iOS software, will be leaving the company in 2013.
In the meantime, Forstall will apparently step down from his SVP role and will be an "advisor" to CEO Tim Cook. Execs Jony Ive, Bob Mansfield, Eddy Cue and Craig Federighi will all be taking on more responsibility as a result of the shakeup.
Retail boss John Browett will also be leaving the company. According to a press release published on the company's website, "the Retail team will report directly to Tim Cook" until a new head of retail is found.
“We are in one of the most prolific periods of innovation and new products in Apple’s history,” Tim Cook said in a statement, per the release. “The amazing products that we’ve introduced in September and October, iPhone 5, iOS 6, iPad mini, iPad, iMac, MacBook Pro, iPod touch, iPod nano and many of our applications, could only have been created at Apple and are the direct result of our relentless focus on tightly integrating world-class hardware, software and services.”
Forstall has been a major force at Apple since 1997 and is credited with a good deal of the success of the iOS platform and had previously been in charge of the company's Mac OS software releases.
They had contributed much change to the company, but it is normal that if you want to continue growth and change in your life no one can stop it. Their technological evolution continues as their life existed.

The 2013 Dodge Dart

Sharing you some advantage of having this new car that might catch your interest of acquiring it..

Taking the Dart down a road with many sharp curves at speed, the suspension gave it excellent manners, but the turbo lag made it tough to exploit the handling. The dual clutch transmission includes a manual gear selection mode. Using the transmission to keep the engine speed high eliminated some of the lag, but keeping the turbo spooled up all the time proved difficult.
The turbocharged 1.4-liter engine produces 160 horsepower and a healthy 184 pound-feet of torque. The standard 2-liter engine delivers 160 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque, and likely more-even acceleration.

The advantage 
The 2013 Dodge Dart's Italian underpinnings mean a multilink rear suspension and disc brakes all around. At 8.4 inches, the touch screen is huge, while the Garmin navigation software gives excellent guidance.
The unfavorable: 
The 1.4-liter engine option comes with a lot of turbo lag. The Garmin software theme clashes with that of the stereo and phone screens in the car.
The offer: 
Dodge gives the 2013 Dart an excellent cabin tech suite, impressive for a compact car, but uneven acceleration makes the 1.4-liter engine upgrade a questionable choice.

The Asus Vivo Tab RT

Another offer and advantage in computing, here is the Asus Vivo Tab RT. Experience the difference..
Measuring 10.4 inches wide, 6.7 inches tall, and 0.33 inch thick, the device is slightly shorter and lighter than both its Android counterpart and the Microsoft Surface (but to be fair, the latter does have a bigger screen). At just 1.18 pounds, the Tab RT is easy and comfortable to hold with one hand. But unless you grasp it with two hands, it does begin to weigh down on you if it's held for an extended period of time.
The keyboard has good build quality, and its design doesn't stray much from the Infinity's keyboard. We liked its sleek, dark chrome finish. Buttons are easy to press and sturdy, though we initially fumbled a couple of times with the smaller-than-usual shift key. On the right is a USB 2.0 port and on the left is a charging port. Through an included adapter, the charging port can become a second USB port.

The advantage: Asus' Vivo Tab RT features the Windows RT's elegant and refreshing user interface, has a bright and rich screen, and is equipped with a keyboard dock for maximizing productivity.
The uhfavorable: The Vivo Tab RT's keyboard is cramped, its operating system takes some time to get used to, and both its app store and Desktop interface are severely limited.
The offer: With its vivid screen, sturdy build, and sleek user interface, the Asus Vivo Tab RT is an excellent tablet in its own right -- but it can't beat the innovative Microsoft Surface RT.

The Nikon Coolpix S800c

Looking for another experience in capturing scenes using handy cameras, here it is..

The S800c can capture three-shot bursts at 7.9 frames per second. However, focus and exposure are set at the first shot, so if your subject is moving, chances are good all three shots won't be in focus. The camera also has 60fps and 120fps bursts; the former captures up to 25 images at a resolution of 1 megapixel, and the latter grabs up to 50 VGA-quality shots at a press of the shutter release. There's a substantial wait while the camera stores all those photos, but if you're trying to capture a specific moment in time, this is your best bet with this camera. Also, with all of these modes, the focus, exposure, and white balance are set with the first photo. If you have a fast-moving subject, like someone running, there's a good chance your subject won't be in focus for all of the photos.


The advantage:
 The Nikon Coolpix S800c is a good-looking point-and-shoot running on Android with a nice touch screen, Wi-Fi, GPS, and full access to the Google Play store and all the apps and content you'd find on other Android devices.
The unfavorable: 
The S800c feels like a camera with an Android smartphone tacked on, and a slow and old one at that. Battery life is very short. Photo quality isn't any better than its far less expensive line mate, the Coolpix S6300.
The offer: 
The Nikon Coolpix S800c marries an above-average point-and-shoot with the functionality of an Android device with mixed results.

The LEXUS LF-LC HYBRID

Look at how Japanese maintain their integrity in auto making, find it out..
Japanese auto maker has decided to let the cat out of the bag with the Lexus LF-LC Hybrid Concept Car. Powered by an Advanced Lexus Hybrid Drive, the vehicle utilizes a high energy battery pack alongside an Atkinson cycle combustion motor that pumps out an impressive 500 ponies. Of course it wouldn’t be a Lexus without all the interior bells and whistles like two massive 12.3 inch LCD screens to display the navigation and other goodies.

The JBL Micro Wireless

If you are looking for some mobile speaker that you can bring anywhere, consider this.

The advantage: The JBL Micro Wireless Bluetooth speaker is a compact, hockey-puck-size speaker that has a built-in lithium ion rechargeable battery and offers good sound for its size. It also has an integrated line-in cable that stows away in the bottom of the device.
The unfavorable: Doesn't handle big bass well and distorts at higher volumes.
The offer: An attractive form factor and a good feature set give the JBL Micro Wireless a leg up in the tiny wireless speaker competition. 
This is a slightly different class of speaker from the Jawbone Jambox. The Micro is truly tiny, a mono speaker not much bigger than a Christmas ornament that weighs in at a mere 4.48 ounces. While it doesn't deliver incredible sound, it does offer impressive sound for its size.
While you can certainly plug it into a laptop and use it in wired mode (or pair it wirelessly with a Bluetooth-enabled PC), the other big application for it is to pair it with a smartphone or tablet. It's definitely a significant step up over the internal speakers of an iPhone or an iPad and plays considerably louder and offers some bass, though not a lot.

The BMW 2013 M3 Frozen Edition in Red, White, and Blue

Make your new year more exciting with this new vehicle..
The 2013 BMW M3 Coupe Frozen Limited Edition goes on sale in January with a starting price of $76,395 including destination, and unlike previous Frozen Edition models, this latest one will be offered in three different matte colors: Frozen Red, Frozen White and Frozen Blue.

Honda Civic 2013 Coming in November 2012


If you are planning to buy a 2013 Honda Civic, take note of the following specs. 
Honda has supposedly sent a letter to its dealers encouraging them to quickly sell down their current inventory of 2012 Civics, given that the arrival of 2013 model will make them difficult to sell.
We can expect the 2013 Civic to have a revised front fascia with a new hood and grille, as well has an updated rear end with new taillights. The biggest changes will be made inside where we can expect higher quality materials, better fit-and-finish and more standard features, including Bluetooth audio, Pandora and SMS. A backup camera will also be offered.
According to vtec.net, the updated model is expected to go sale on November 29th, 2012.

The 13-inch Apple MacBook Pro

The answer to the question that, if the 13-inc Apple Macbook with Retina worth its price?, will be find out on the following passage.
At a starting price of $1,699, the new 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display is a big step up in price from Apple's other 13-inch laptops, but it also offers features they cannot. Like the 15-inch Retina Pro, this new model includes a high-resolution display -- at 2,560x1,600 pixels, it's the highest resolution you can get in a 13-inch laptop -- plus two Thunderbolt/DisplayPort outputs, and even HDMI.
Compared with those, the base model Retina 13-inch Pro has a Core i5 and 128GB SSD. The unit is actually the step-up model, which upgrades the storage space to 256GB, for a total of $1,999. Add a Core i7 processor to that, and it's $2,199 -- the same price as the 15-inch Retina Pro, with a Core i7, 256GB SSD, and discrete Nvidia graphics.
Screen has less glare than previous MacBook screens -- the glossy top layer still seemed to reflect plenty of light from nearby sources. The Retina Pro sticks with a 16:10 aspect ratio (the much more common 16:9 aspect ratio is only found in the 11-inch MacBook Air).
The new MacBook Pro isn't going to satisfy every potential customer's connectivity needs. Ethernet, the optical drive, and FireWire are gone, but HDMI and a second Thunderbolt port (which also works as a DisplayPort out) have been added, just as on the 15-inch Retina Pro.

The Cocoon Tree Tent

If you want a different experience and adventure, have this for yourself.

Cocoon Tree is a spherical structure in aluminium covered with a resistant tarpaulin intended as a retreat, suspended above the ground. The hanging tent can be hung from trees using polyester rope. A Cocoon Tree empty weighs only 60kg. It's rigged up with ropes and secured by nets. The biggest benefit is the fact that you will dramatically reduce the amount of insects and pests found out in the wild, and you will also be able to set up camp on uneven grounds in places you couldn't have ever imagined without the tent. The best part is that there is a 2.4 meter circular bed built for two. The Cocoon Tent is not yet available.

HACKERS CRACK the SONY Playstation 3

If you are game enthusiast but refuse to spend more for your game pleasure, or if you want to make money out of it, but be careful because eyes will be focused on you.
Two more months and Sony (SNE) would have made it through the entire year without any drama involving hackers trying to crack its console security or bring down its PlayStation Network. According to Eurogamer, the PlayStation 3′s security has been breached by a hacker group called “The Three Tuskateers.” The hackers reportedly discovered the console’s “LV0″ firmware decryption keys and were forced to leak it out for free after another Chinese hacking crew called the “BlueDiskCFW” planned to profit off their work. In layman’s terms, the LV0 keys allow hackers to easily decrypt any PS3 firmware, meaning any patches Sony adds could easily be circumvented.

Chevrolet unveils production of Sonic Dusk sedan for SEMA

If you're waiting for the arrival of Sonic Dusk sedan from Chevrolet, then here are some details you may want to know.
Chevrolet announced production of the Sonic Dusk sedan, designed to bring a higher degree of sophistication and refinement to the subcompact segment. The production intent Sonic Dusk will be displayed at the SEMA Show, opening Oct. 30 in Las Vegas and leads a diverse range of stylized Chevy small cars.
The SEMA show vehicle features a production-intent package with ground effects, a rear spoiler and large, 18-inch aluminum wheels with a Pearl Nickel finish. Sophisticated touches lend the Ashen Grey Sonic Dusk a refined, contemporary aesthetic. The upper and lower grilles, door handle inserts and rear license plate trim are finished with a matte appearance, while stainless steel lower window moldings add an upscale accent to the body.
Inside, Sonic Dusk features Jet Black leather-trimmed seats with suede accents and Mojave tan inserts. Mojave accent stitching and tan-color door panel and instrument panel accents were designed to enhance the cabin's ambience. It is also equipped with Chevrolet's MyLink infotainment system, which integrates a smartphone and stored media – via Bluetooth, plug-in outlet or USB – with the radio.
Sonic Dusk is powered by the Ecotec 1.4L turbocharged engine, rated at 138 horsepower (103 kW) and 148 lb.-ft. of torque (200 Nm) between 1,850 rpm and 4,900 rpm. The wide rpm range for the maximum torque – a specific trait of turbocharged engines – helps the engine deliver a better driving experience and performance. The engine is mated with a six-speed transmission – and production models offer a six-speed manual or automatic.

There's no word yet on pricing, but we definitely expect it to be priced well above the current luxury trim level, the Sonic LTZ ($18,640), and possibly closer to the sporty Sonic RS hatchback ($20,995).

The HP Envy TouchSmart Ultrabook 4

HP is offering another experience and excitement in computing, take a look at the following.
Laptops with touch screens aren't new territory for HP. Windows 8 and its touch-friendly interface, however, gives consumers more of a reason to have one, even on traditional laptop designs like the new HP Envy TouchSmart Ultrabook 4.
It looks like a pretty standard laptop, albeit a nice-looking one, with brushed black metal on the outside with nothing but a simple HP logo decorating the lid. There's silver trim around the outside giving you a hint about the brushed silver metal inside surrounding the keyboard.
The ultrabook branding may make you think the Envy is especially thin and light; it is not. However, at just less than an inch thick and weighing 4.7 pounds, it's certainly not huge and heavy.
For those expecting a 1,920x1,080-pixel resolution display, you'll have to spend more money for the HP Spectre XT TouchSmart; the Envy's resolution is 1,366x768 pixels, which is what we're seeing on many sub-$1,000 ultrabooks.

The LG Optimus L9

Here are some of the things that you should know about LG Optimus L9 if you wish to have it.
The LG Optimus L9 runs Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich OS. With ICS, the handset gets the usual slew of Google's services, like Chrome, Gmail, Plus, Latitude, Maps with Navigation, Messenger, Search, Talk, and YouTube. The Google Play stores for Books, Magazines, Movies & TV, and Music are included as well.

The advantage: The LG Optimus L9 from T-Mobile has a snappy dual-core CPU, 4G, Android 4.0, and a 1080p HD camera.
The unfavorable: The Optimus L9's battery drains quickly, it has a poor audio speaker, and it comes preloaded with too much bloatware.

The offer: The reasonable $80 price tag, dual-core processor, and Android 4.0, make the LG Optimus L9 a reliable midlevel handset for T-Mobile users.

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Find out the difference between S3 and Note 2, then speak out the experience.
If you've seen the Samsung Galaxy S3, then the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 holds few surprises. Start with the Galaxy S3's round corners, high-gloss surfaces, scant bezels, and bubbled-out screen, then blow it up a size and add a stylus slot. Samsung unabashedly carries on its plastic tradition in the face of rivals that have much more premium-looking, and possibly heartier, build materials. Though attractive, the Note 2 wins no awards for construction, and the highly reflective surfaces sometimes bounce back light in distracting ways.
This is a large phone: 5.9 inches tall by 3.2 inches wide by 0.37 inch thick and weighing 6.4 ounces. That's a handful to be sure, but the weight feels proportional to the phone's dimensions, and any lighter could mean a smaller battery, which is one trade-off I don't want. Like the Galaxy S3, the Note 2 manages to look relatively sleek and slim despite its girth. Side by side, the Note 2 isn't a whole lot larger than the original Samsung Galaxy Note, and is much more palmable than a 7-inch tablet.

The advantage The Samsung Galaxy Note 2's massive screen is terrific for videos, games, and reading; and its improved stylus aids productivity. A blazing quad-core processor, a great camera, and strong battery life round out the advantages of this Android 4.1 phone.
The unfavorable:Its extra-large size makes the Galaxy Note 2 unwieldy to carry around, there's no dedicated HDMI-out port, and hiccups in the S Pen stylus and apps can slow you down. The Note 2 isn't a suitable tablet replacement across all categories.
The offer: Think of Samsung's Galaxy Note 2 as a big phone rather than as a tablet wannabe, and you'll come closer to appreciating its top-flight smartphone specs. However, continued problems with the S Pen and the handset's oversize dimensions won't make it a universal choice for all Android-seekers, blazing quad-core processor or no.

The Canon EOS Rebel T4i

Don't just acquire a camera, be sure that you posses a gadget that is capable of stilling images the way you want it to be.
Overall, the photo and video quality of the T4i still rates as excellent, though at high ISO sensitivities it's slightly surpassed by the T3i; it looks like either the blue channel in the new sensor just isn't as sensitive as the previous one or Canon's processing the heck out of it. JPEGs are fine up through ISO 400 if you're not a pixel peeper; if you are, you'll find even slightly out-of-focus areas start to show some artifacts as low as ISO 200. At high ISO sensitivities the noise reduction is relatively intelligent, with suppression artifacts only in the dark areas and on some high-contrast edges. I suggest you don't use the default Auto Picture Style when shooting JPEG in low light, because it boosts the contrast and you really lose a lot of shadow detail. If you shoot raw, you've got latitude up to about ISO 1600, but you'll end up applying a lot of luminance NR to get rid of the hot pixels.
The advantage: The Canon EOS Rebel T4i delivers extremely good photo and video quality plus improved performance in Live View shooting over the T3i -- as long as you buy the more expensive 18-135mm STM kit. Plus, the camera has a more streamlined shooting design than its predecessor.
The unfavorable: The feature set remains rather blah, and its photos aren't as good as the T3i's at high ISO sensitivities.
The offer: A fine camera, the Canon EOS Rebel T4i's more expensive 18-135mm STM kit (or body with another STM lens) is the only version that merits an unqualified recommendation. You can probably find better alternatives if you just want a sub-$1,000 dSLR for still photography.

The Bodyfloat bike suspension seatpost

If you are looking for bike parts, or want to try a new one like Bodyfloat, it is definitely a new experience of riding a bike,
In case you haven’t figured it out by looking at the picture, BodyFloat is a replacement bike seat post that doubles as a suspension system. The patent-pending design utilizes dual spring parallelogram science something or other (kind of looks like the alien legs from “The Arrival”) to basically remove you (and your ass) from the potentially painful equation of potholes, long rides and vibrations. It’s available in a bunch of different options (including carbon fiber!) through Kickstarter and was designed by the talented people at Cirrus Cycles in Bellingham, Washington. It’s like moon shoes for your butt… when you’re riding a bicycle. It is about $200 in price.
