Traveling these days is more frustrating then ever. Not mention that most airlines are now charging for all check in luggage. And if your bags are overweight? Forget about it!

It has a built in scale with a digital readout on the top. Small innovations like this can make traveling all that much more enjoyable. No more surprises when you get to the airport.

Ever noticed how Bond knows the language no matter where he is? Want to know how he learned them all? Michel Thomas, that's how!
Michel Thomas, fought for two years in the Secret Army of the French Resistance, then served in combat intelligence with the US Army, and finally served for over two years as a US Army Counter Intelligence Corps (CIC) Agent.
After the war, Michel developed a unique method of language teaching to learn to speak foreign languages much faster than traditional methods.
His method is truly revolutionary. I personally learned Spanish through his method. And learning a new language from a true Secret Agent is nothing short but just plain cool.
Unfortunately, due to some unscrupulous reporting on behalf of the LA Times, this language master and war hero is getting a bad rap. Check out the jump for some more info on the REAL story how you too can start learning a new language fast using his methods.
