If you've ever bumped into furniture while reaching in the dark for a lamp, you may be a candidate for IntelaVoice, the world's first voice-activated light switch.

Using speech recognition technology, the IntelaVoice, $29.95, lets you turn on lights as well as radios and TVs with a simple one-word command (such as "lights") from as far away as 20 feet.  To learn more, call (800) 596-0061 or visit www.vossystems.com.
