MAGNETIZED CAR TIRES REALLY STICK TO THE ROAD

NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- "Popular Science" has just picked its list of the best new products of 2000, and one of the items should attract lots of attention -- it's a magnetic automobile tire. The tire actually uses magnets to improve traction and is one of 100 new products making the "Best of What's New" list. Other high-tech toys include... -- A new VCR which allows couch potatoes to "pause" a live broadcast and replay it at a later time. -- A pair of eyeglasses equipped with a tiny video display that allows you to watch TV wherever you go. -- A watch that automatically adjusts the time whenever you switch time zones. -- And, finally, there's a new vacuum cleaner that does all the dirty work itself by using radar sensors that direct it around the room.
