Playing the piano is a difficult task and you can hire a tutor to teach you but hiring tutors can be very expensive and it may take a couple of years for you to master it. So why not get an electronic teacher instead and learn it at your own pace. The Piano Maestro can help you with the piano and you do not have to rush for it. It teaches you the way you want it to teach you and there is no stress since there are no exams to take. It also takes a shorter period of time to learn to play the piano with the Piano Maestro.
Many companies like Casio has made electrical keyboards with ‘follow along’ LED lights but, it is impossible to master a song and follow the moving light when it never stops so this is where the Piano Maestro takes over. The Piano Maestro is basically a row of LED light that is placed above your piano keys and they will guide you on what key needs to be pressed. The music gadget is hooked to your computer and it will install software that will turn the song you want to play into a MIDI file which allows you to control the speed, bass or treble note to be played and many more.
When songs are turned into MIDI files, it immediately sets out a score sheet for you. The device cost about $169. Now you can learn to play the piano with the help of the Piano Maestro device and its software.

Imagine being able to use your mouse via a Wi-Fi connection instead of a wire, USB dongle, or Bluetooth, well you will soon be able to. Utilizing Wi-Fi and Link-5 technology, HP plans to release a range of wireless mice and other devices that connect to a computer via their Wi-Fi connection. The hope is this will increase user experience and do away with wires completely or having to use a laptop’s touch pad.
The HP Wi-Fi Mobile Mouse has other benefits other than just being able to communicate with the computer, for example it has a battery life of nine-months. If anyone has used a wireless mouse in the past they will understand the benefit of this extended battery life.
The Wi-Fi gadget can also be used up to 30 feet away from the computer it connects to. As long as the mouse is within the Wi-Fi network range then the mouse will work as if its plugged in via a USB. I don’t think I will ever need this functionality; however some working environments and industries may find it useful.
The HP Wi-Fi mouse will come with 5 buttons that can be customized to provide functions such as copy, paste, highlight all, etc. along with 4 wheels to scroll up, down, left, and right.
Another device that HP are using their new Link-5 technology on are wireless keyboards. The release date for the HP Wi-Fi mobile mouse is sometime June and estimated price will be $49.95.
