Now, there have been many fake versions of the iPhone and the iPod circulating in the black market. I’ve also seen fake Nokia N95s so a clone of the new generation stubby iPod Nano did not surprise me at all. I just wonder why people won’t just buy the real thing. Price perhaps is the biggest factor but with this Nano, I say, the added camera feature explains it.

Steve Job’s Apple hasn’t really been generous with the trigger happy cam whores because iPods still have no cameras to boot. And so the M2406MP4 player is a cheaper alternative. It comes with 2.4 inch video screen, 2.0MP camera, built in speaker that iPods still don’t have, and guess what—a Mini SD slot. iPod Nano okays AVI video format as well as MP3,WMA,WMV, and WAV audio files.

Oh no, another pink gadget but this one I particularly like. Seriously, I can forget about buying an iPod Touch to replace my 3 year old iPod Mini which I name Polly. And besides, I don’t get to listen to the thousands of songs I store so I guess this 2 GB model would be enough. Innoman was fortunate to have been given by Mattel, Barbie’s home, to produce a girly music player. Called ‘B2′, this player features an ‘L-type touch screen’ and 1.1 inch OLED.Aside from MP3 playback, the B2 also comes with FM radio, image viewer, and voice recorder.

According to a latest edition of leading German Business magazine ‘Capital’, U.S. computer giant Apple and German car maker Volkswagen (VW) could not agree yet on the production of the highly anticipated iCar. VW CEO Martin Winterkorn and Apple CEO Steve Jobs met last September to discuss options for creating an iCar, a small car made by Volkswagen equipped with hightech gadgets from Apple targeted for younger audiences. Volkswagen confirmed the talks.
As ‘Capital’ now reports, Apple is also talking to other manufacturers regarding the development of the iCar. (more…)

Remember those days when there were car phones in the 1970’s and 1980’s. Aah well, I only saw them in the movies. What would be the best thing to go with your Porsche, than an extension of the Brand itself - Porsche in collaboration with Sagem. Well if a lot of us don’t know the company, Porsche has an Industrial Design team which designs a lot of stuff, but it maintains its exclusivity with its excellence in design. The Porsche Design Mobile, is a clamshell or I should say a flip phone that looks stunning enough to give the iPhone a run for its money. Let me clear any doubts; this is a mobile phone from the makers of Porsche sports cars. (more…)

Okay, so there have been a dime a dozen USB drives out there, each one outdoing the other in terms shape, size and overall design. But then in the gold-and diamond-studded style culture of today, it’s not been untill now that these little useful devices have had their fair share of the pie right?

What you see up there is yet another wierdly designed flash USB, except that is one is gem-studded. Of course, it makes for some great looks and yeah the stylish ones can team it up as a chain on their neck, the only difference being that this one is a useful one. (more…)

Of all the technology that we keep hearing about these days, eBookreaders seem to be the things we hear most about. But no technology reaches its peak of recognition untill a major techno-giant launches one of its own right? Maybe that’s what Amazon’s new eBookReader would do to the market segment.

The Kindle, that it is officially known, was announced today. What does it have to offer? 30 hour battery life, direct download with Sprint ( no computer would be required) and weighs just 10.3 ounces. (more…)

For the chauvinistic men in the world for whom women are nothing more than mere maids at home, this might be a good reason not to get married. What we have here is the Voice-controlled blender. Yeah, you heard it right. So going back to the topic of chauvinistic men, if all kitchen appliances became voice-controlled someday, you can imagine men naming them after every woman they’ve slept with, and calling out to them to perform those cooking and cleaning functions that these appliances are meant to do. Alas, for them, it’s not that much of an ideal world yet. (more…)

Okay, I can hear shouts of “pink stuff again!” now. I like pink but I don’t like my gadgets to be pink but this one certainly caught my attention. Not because it screams girl power but my lust for an LCD TV is the culprit. The pink Sony Bravia S Flat Panel HDTV can be added to any girl’s growing addiction to pink gadgets.

If its “pinkness” is not enough to make watching TV more pleasurable, then Sony’s Bravia TV technology will bring out the potato couch in you. (more…)

Si a través de los años te has transformado en uno de esos adictos que no pueden abandonar nunca sus computadoras portátiles por un minuto excepto cuando están durmiendo, entonces has visto como tu panza sigue poniendo distancia con tu mesa de computación por bastante tiempo. ¿Y que vas a hacer al respecto? Todo el trabajo y la charla y la conferencia no te deja mucho tiempo para nada, ¿verdad?Quizás el Netrunner que ves aquí es la solución para eso. Es básicamente un sostén para tu computadora portátil que puede ser adosado a tu cinta de correr para así dejarte hacer todo el trabajo mientras quemas esas calorías adicionales. Una gran idea, claro, pero nuevamente, ¿cuantos de nosotros pueden jadear en la máquina de correr mientras mantienen su mente alerta y enfocada en el trabajo? (more…)
