Spencer wrote "Hey I love your show, I'm from Nanaimo, BC, in Canada. Can i stream music from my laptop through ethernet to my xbox 360 or do I have to do it wirelessly." The short answer is you can do it either by Ethernet or Wirelessly. You just need your Xbox and your laptop hooked up to the same network. The rest of the details are covered in today's Insider Secret."

Call me crazy...but I hate public restrooms. To be precise, drying my hands in public restrooms. Most of them I come across these days have ditched the paper towels in favor of those air dryers. Problem is, they don't do much drying at all. That leaves me to just skip 'em and just wipe my hands on my pants (hint--use the lower part near your ankles).
I've heard about the Dyson Airblade for a while now and was wondering when it would make its debut in the United States. Well, it's here, and I got to go to the unveiling at a movie theater in Times Square. Sure, I was excited to meet the man behind those really expensive vacuums, but I was especially eager to dry my hands on one of his new age devices.
I can tell you with much confidence--bathrooms would be a better place if every store owner decided to install one of these bad boys. They slick the water off your hands in a way even a squeegee would be jealous of.
But don't just take my word for it. Check out the video.

(Credit: Apple)Someone with a very sharp eye noticed that Crave was shown in the "Activation and Sync" tutorial video on Apple.com for the iPhone. We're there in the good company of NPR, the Food Network, National Geographic, and the New York Times. They don't show the actual podcast on the iPhone, but someone over there is a fan!
A neat, little video shout-out, to be sure. I guess we didn't get on Apple's bad side too much with the iPod Challenge!
I did this list on the CNET Live show last Thursday and a few people have written in asking for the links. So here you go.
5. MacBook or MacBook pro and EV-DO card
So you can Twitter everything. Because, you know, you don't have a smart phone yet. You've been waiting for the iPhone!
You never know if that Wi-Fi will go down or be accessible from your place in line. Be safe!
4. A synthetic sleeping bag
No goose down, in case it rains. Down doesn't insulate when wet. Spyrofil will. Plus, the bag should be breathable if you're going to be somewhere hot.
3. Minifridge --that chills OR warms
Fill it full of energy drinks and homemade gazpacho.
2. Portable solar generator
Clean, quiet, and green. Will power your MacBook.
1. iPod
Your last dance with the old friend before you throw it away (once you get your new toy).
The crew at Download Music is always on the prowl for great new music--we do the heavy lifting so you don't have to--and as usual we've dug up some cool and groovy stuff to get you through the weekend and beyond. For starters, we've got a brand new track from R&B hero Jill Scott; a couple of laid-back French-pop-styled songs from Dean & Britta, former members of Galaxie 500 and Luna; and the first pop album from hot electronic DJ and techno artist Matthew Dear.
You can catch quick reviews and song samples from each of these artists in our latest video report. Pop it on and hear what we're talking about.

Thomas writes, "I need to get rid of my old iPod Mini but all my songs are on there. How do I get my songs off so I can put them on a new music player like the iRiver?" If you have DRM'd music on there you bought from the iTunes music store, you can only play it on another iPod or a computer. But we'll show you how to get all your music off the iPod in today's Insider Secret."
