With four bestselling books, a wildly popular web site, and a portfolio that consistently and significantly outperforms the Standard & Poor averages by more than 30 percent, the Motley Fools have attracted a dedicated following. And now those Foolish financial whizzes — with their impudent but right-on money advice — take their investment guidance to the next level.

In The Motley Fool’s Rule Breakers, Rule Makers, the Gardners show investors how to define and identify the two best investment possibilities in the market — the small companies that have historically offered the greatest investment returns (the “rule breakers”) and the companies that are legal monopolies (the “rule makers”). Most investment books are designed around getting investors into and out of stocks at the best time, while most business books tell how best to manage people, ideas, and profits. The Motley Fool) Rule Breakers, Rule Makers focuses on linking these two ideas, relating the strength of a business over time with the performance of its stock. The newest entry from the creators of today’s hottest on-line investment site is proof anew that, as the Detroit News has said, “The Motley Fool is special”.

For the past eight years, the U.S. stock market has been on a bull run the likes of which few have ever seen, making and breaking records almost every quarter. And for the last four of those years, David and Tom Gardner’s self-described market-crushing stock portfolios have made the market’s own incredible performance pale by comparison. In their third book, The Motley Fool’s Rule Breakers, Rule Makers, the brothers reveal the methodology behind their stock-picking success, which is impressive. The Rule Breaker Portfolio (formerly known as the Fool Portfolio on their Web site) has risen some 650 percent since its inception in 1994, thanks to stocks such as America Online, McAfee, and Wal-Mart, while the Rule Maker Portfolio (formerly known as the Cash King Portfolio) has risen 440 percent on the backs of investments in Microsoft, Cisco Systems, and Intel. Fans of the Motley Fool, who with luck have prospered from the Gardners’ timely advice, will no doubt love Rule Breakers, Rule Makers. The book is written in their usual humorous and self-congratulatory style–not only educational, but often aimed at making the pros on Wall Street wince, as they should. However, if you’re new to the Motley Fool or to stock picking in general, you may do well by first considering one of their earlier books, You Have More Than You Think and The Motley Fool Investment Guide. –Harry C. Edwards

About Kajeet
Kajeet was founded by three three dads figuring out how technology, kids and parents work best (“Kajeet” is an anagram of the first letters of the names of the company’s founders’ children). Kajeet’s entire philosophy springs from a simple core idea: kids are smart. And they should be agile with technology, empowered and safe, and be able to respond with confidence to what’s happening in their world.

Because having a cell phone is not just fun, it’s a responsibility–a shared responsibility, Kajeet wants parents and guardians to be involved too. Thus, Kajeet is designed to incorporate a full suite of tools to help families customize and manage every aspect of their Kajeet experience. For more on Kajeet’s pay-as-you-go charges and monthly voice and text plans, see the Kajeet Service section below.

The Sanyo 2700
The 2700 has plenty to back up its good looks, with a wealth of features at a great price. This bar-shaped CDMA messaging phone weighs in at just 3.42 ounces and is about half an inch deep–it’ll fit right in your pocket. Hardware features include an integrated full QWERTY keyboard to let you text and IM with lightning speed. A 2.2-inch color LCD screen with 320 x 240 pixel resolution provides large, sharp images. A built-in speakerphone is handy for speaking to multiple parties. Bluetooth compatibility means easy pairing with wireless headsets for hands-free use. And you are free to use the stereo 2.5mm headset jack, of course.

The 2700′s built-in phonebook stores up to 600 entries, e-mail and Internet addresses, and a search bar at the top of the contact list lets you scan through your database. It’s a breeze to download unique ringers and assign them to numbers in your address book (phone includes 30 built-in ringers and vibration alert to start).

As hinted above, this is an ideal tool for the rampant texter. In addition to the speedy keyboard, the device boasts threaded texting, for easy message organization.

Kids will love the 1.3-megapixel camera, which captures great photos anywhere for sending via MMS or sharing on-screen in the easy-to-use gallery application. Camera features include geo-tagging, night mode, self-timer, contrast controls and more. Plenty to fiddle with.

As for entertainment, the 2700 lets you download and play interactive games, to make the bus/car ride a little more bearable. It also has an on-board MP3 player for taking a few choice tunes with you (limited by the 16MB on-board memory–those seeking a more music-oriented solution may want to look elsewhere).

Of course, it’s not all about entertainment. Built-in productivity tools allow users to access a planner and scheduler, check a task list and more. Stay on top of things with a world clock, calculator, voice memo feature and alarm clock.

Finally, thanks to the 2700′s GPS support, parents can take full advantage of Kajeet’s phone locator security feature.

Data Features
Kajeet plans to begin offering data plans in 2009. The 2700 is ready to go, with Infraware’s Polaris 6.01 WAP web browser, and an email client that supports IMAP, POP, SMTP, Outlook (OWA), and Lotus Notes protocols. Handy presets are included for AOL, AIM, Hotmail, Yahoo!, and GMail.

Vital Statistics
The Sanyo 2700 weighs 3.4 ounces and measures 4.3 x 2.4 x 0.6 inches. Its 840 mAh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 4.8 hours of talk time. It runs on the CDMA 850/CDMA 1900 frequencies for voice.

Kajeet Service
The Kajeet pay-as-you-go service delivers a full range of customizable voice, text, instant messaging and data services that enable kids to stay connected with family and friends. While kids will love the phones offered by Kajeet, parents will love the affordability of the Kajeet pay-as-you-go service with no long-term contracts, no activation or termination fees, and no roaming or extra long distance fees.

Choose pay-as-you-go flexibility, or select a Talk or Text Pak monthly plan.

Kajeet’s GPS Phone Locator service helps both kids and parents find the kajeet phone.
