We recognize that "BlackBerry Thumb" can be an all-too-real affliction but, seriously, if you need something like this therapeutic contraption you've really got to let it go. Literally.

The "Xtensor" claims to be "the first product on the market to perform with true bio-mechanically correctness and treats the direct cause of this pain." That may be so, but to us it looks like a bowling glove combined with those elastic bands that pitchers use for to exercise their rotator cuffs.

In any case, the makers of the Xtensor say it can help rehabilitate habitual gamers as well as CrackBerry addicts. As for us, we'd rather be at the spa.

Think about the concept though

Think about the concept though, if everything we do with our hands is closing, then this thing could be phenominal.

That is fantastic. I completely agree if you need a contraption like this then you really need to take a step back and reevaluate. But, I can see some other uses for this contraption besides bowling. it looks like a great tool to exercise your hands. I can see where it could really help with your grip. <a href="http://openamf.net">Bowling Balls For Sale</a>

Celebrities just can't lay off drugs, and there seems to be another celebrity entering rehab every day ? today, it's Melanie Griffith. Melanie Griffith, the star of Working Girl, has checked herself into rehab, and yes, it's all very exciting. It isn't the first trip for her, either ? she entered rehab back in the late 80s when she was married to Don Johnson, at his insistence, who later had to go to rehab himself. Later she dumped Johnson, and married Antonio Banderas, who reportedly insisted that she check into rehab to curb her erratic behavior. Let us feign outrage, but no matter if Melanie Griffith needs cash advance for therapy it won't stop the rest of us from having to get up and go to work.
