For attending a nature’s call, we all make efforts to install the personality toilets starting from designer, geeky and gilded one. But what about those installed at public places and are in clear juxtaposition to one reached at eBay, demanding a whooping sum of $89,000 each. The sophisticated public toilet features graffiti, impact-resistant stalls, programmed doors, faucets, dryers, soap dispensers, and also an integrated emergency 9-1-1 button. It is the result of initiative taken by Seattle officials to set right their gaffe (that’s what they feel) of having spent $5 million of city’s cash on self-cleaning community toilets around 5 years ago.

While Googling gadgets for EliteChoice, I came across many well-versed and established names but the one that invited my attention was HitechMommy with a niche covering coolest gadgets for geeky parents. It was then I decided to approach the face behind this blog and came across the lively Mommy named Catherine Michelle Schwartz (aka Cat). The versatile gadget diva is not only a blogger but also eBay’s Gadget and Toy Director who keeps herself busy offering intelligent remarks on the array of consumer electronics and toys in an amicable way or enjoys the company of her son.
Commonly known for her appearances on shows like Live With Regis and Kelly, MSNBC’s Hot List and The Today Show; Cat takes pride being an American TV personality for her former role as co-host for television program Call for Help on the TechTV, now known as G4techTV after its merger with G4 in May 2004. Her exhaustive profile is a clear question to the thought that the tech world is a male-driven territory that subside women. I would here choose to be silent and let you go with her flow of lively responses to the thrown questions.
Introduce yourself to my readers and take us to your average flow of day at work?
My name is Catherine Schwartz, but you can call me Cat. I wake up to my son saying something amazing in a 2 year old voice. It’s the best. We eat and watch TV as I check my email and get ready to start writing. Then I take him to daycare and start hitting the blogs. I write and write, then I request some gadgets, then fedex brings gadgets that I then plug in. Then I attempt to play with yesterday’s gadgets until it’s time to go get Jack. We eat and watch TV. It’s the best. Then he says something wonderful in that voice of his and I got to sleep.

It was only 10 days ago that I was floating smiles all over as Tim Burton era Batmobiles reached eBay, giving me a reason to ink a neat deal. But my happiness went two-fold when the auction was removed as I have a second good option to invest my money into i.e. Airwolf replica that is currently open for bidding at eBay .
Regrettably this Airwolf didn’t have any history of being allied to any TV series, but was developed for a helicopter museum located in Tennessee. Built on an accessible Bell 222A airframe and the side panels, its nose panels and other details replicates the real Airwolf’s specs and plans.

Those of you who are real 80’s baby then you can easily recall watching the live-action Batman show at Six Flag’s Great Adventure around 1989. That was a re-enactment of certain scenes from the flick, complete with an imitation of the Batmobile. But the one pictured above is above is a real deal. One ruthless eBay seller is gazing to get rid of one of the five actual Batmobiles from the Tim Burton classic demanding a sum of $500,000 at eBay. This operational coupe is structured like a spaceship that has tires attached onto it to make it street legal.
Some peep into the specks of the coupe: Measuring 20 feet long and 8 feet wide, this custom-built chassis has a Chevrolet 350 motor attached to it. To eneter into this vehicle, you have to jump from the top from where the canopy opens, likewise in the movie. Initially this coupe was owned by Warner Bros productions and thus the would-be buyer thinking to ink a deal has to sign a contract with them and some other legal items.
