BUSHNELL GolfFXI Wireless Weather Forecaster

I saw this at my local GolfSmith the other day and said “that’s ridiculous.”

Then I decided that I wanted one.

It’s a small screen device—about the size of a large automobile GPS unit that automatically downloads and updates weather conditions from a wireless transmitter attached to your PC. For your five favorite courses, it gives the current, RealFeel and forecasted high and low temperatures, morning, afternoon and evening temperatures for today and next three days, UV index, chance of precipitation and wind speed and direction, weather message display for up-to-date conditions, and lightening alerts.

Yes, I know that I can get all of the same by just looking it up on my PC—but this would look really neat sitting on my desk at school.

It is, however, not nearly as cool as the ScoreCast Baseball Gadget, which shows you current baseball scores—inning by inning—without any internet connection.
. There’s also an Ambient Football ScoreCast that does the same for football.

I’d like to see one that gives the current leaderboards for the PGA, LPGA and EPGA tours.
