Black Coffee
Black Coffee is a highly informative and entertaining Canadian documentary that was released in 2005.

Eight Cranes Perfect Steeper Review
The Eight Cranes "Perfect Steeper" isn't quite perfect -- it isn't suited for rooibos and other super-fine leaves -- but it's the closest I've seen to perfection in a travel infuser. At about $40 a pop, it's an investment, but it's one that serious tea drinkers who want great tea on the go will find worthwhile.

The stainless steel Krups BW500 Precision Electric Kettle is a good choice for the price point.
Krups Kettle Review
The Krups BW3990 Prelude Electric Kettle is a good buy overall, but it has some potential quality issues you should be aware of before you buy one.
Nativa Yerba Mate Suave
Nativa Yerba Mate Suave is a milder yerba mate than most, thanks to the fact that it is wild harvested (which makes it sweeter and less bitter) and free from stems (which also reduces bitterness).
