Reviewing: Presidian 61 126
Purchased at: Radio Shack     Price: $19.99 USD

I recently purchased the Presidian USB Desk Lamp (Model 61-126) from RadioShack for $19.99.This desk lamp is powered by either USB cable or AC adapter (both included), and is a very versatile little lamp.I use it as a reading lamp, and it works quite nicely for this purpose.It has a cathode fluorescent tube which is rated at 10,000 hours of bulb life.It also has a flexible gooseneck which allows you to adjust it in various ways.The only drawback to this lamp that I have found is that it is somewhat top-heavy.I have to adjust the gooseneck a certain way to keep it from toppling over.But the lamp has come in so handy for me that this problem does not really bother me that much.It comes with a limited 90 day warranty, and I have found it to be a very versatile lamp.I like the fact that I can also use it with my computer.If you are looking for a nice little lamp either for computer work, reading or close work of any kind, this is a nifty lamp to use.I purchased it in a pastel blue color, and I believe it also comes in another color as well.

Update On Mar 02, 2010: I am happy to say that this little light is still working for me.Every once in a while, the light flickers.I'm thinking I may be reaching the end of its lifespan, but it still works and has lasted me a long time, which was a nice surprise.
