“ We come back to the city,
            now the Royale on 72nd is gone.”


         “Tell me. We have to get these schlepped up from 23rd Street.”

Type of earrings Maxine wants Windust to repay her in - right before
someone starts shooting at them -

“ Simple diamond studs. With your hair up . . .  .”


         “Actually, I’m a Eurowire type gal.”


Eurowire - these are pretty -

“The euro wire is an interchangeable, dangle-style earring worn in
conjunction with a decorative *euro charm*. The euro wire is an elegant,
hooked wire with a lever-style open and close mechanism at the back of the
ear. When the mechanism is locked, the wearer can hear it snap into place,
making it very secure. The euro wire is specially designed to have the euro
charms slip on and off easily using a small ring at the top, while
remaining safely fastened. Whatever the occasion, whether it’s a workday,
formal event, or casual weekend, the unique design of the euro wire makes
it simple to look stylish and elegant.”



The short range communicator Cybiko:

< Doesn’t look like a Game Boy. “Nigel, what is that?”


         Looking up after a while, “This? it’s a Cybiko, my sister gave
itta me, everybody
            at La Guardia has em, the big selling point is the silence.
It’s wireless, see, you
            can send text messages back and forth in class and nobody hears
you.” >

The *Cybiko* is a Russian handheld computer introduced in the United States
by David Yang's company Cybiko Inc. as a retail test market in New York on
April 2000, and rolled out nationwide in May 2000. It is designed for
teens, featuring its own two-way radio text messaging system. It has over
430 "official" freeware games and applications. It features a rubber QWERTY
keyboard. An MP3 player add-on with a SmartMedia card slot was made for the
unit as well. The company stopped manufacturing the units after two product
versions and a few years on the market. Cybikos can communicate with each
other up to a maximum range of 100 meters (330 ft). Several Cybikos can
chat with each other in a wireless chatroom. By the end of 2000, the Cybiko
Classic had sold over 500,000 units.
