Finally an Awesome Car Phone

Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

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…)

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

chinavasion-CVDLM-SWP620-1-Wireless Spy Camera PenOkay so maybe the days of dark sunglasses and Wrigley’s chewing gums as spy cams are as much a joke, as shooting theives with a bow and arrow is, but then maybe the security guys won’t find the newest invention as funny. One because, they don’t know about it yet, and second, when they do know, they’ll be wondering why they hadn’t been expecting this. This thing will play the big daddy game for you: A pen with a wireless mini spy camera that also comes with a solar charger for effortless charging and also has an MP4/Wireless receiver which will help you with all the recording.

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

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…)

Amazon’s Kindle: A revolution in archiving your favourite read-ups

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

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…)

Voice-controlled blender: For those lazy types

Monday, November 26th, 2007

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…)

Well we all have stuff to do during our typical weekdays, be it running some important errand or picking up the baby from school, and we’re all great doing that, so long as we are not disturbing our work schedules, right? But the fact is that the white-collared guys in the Goverment don’t think so or well iSlip helps it not to think so.

Just in case you were planning to skip the next big hearing and take your goverment-gifted vehicle and run to pick up your baby, think again. (more…)

Okay, so we’ve seen tonnes and tonnes of wireless computer appliances, so seeing yet another wireless mouse is not something that amazes us right? But what might set our hopes high on this one, is th fact that it’s wireless and can be worn like a ring around the finger. Yeah, it means quite a few more buttons that you learn to deal with, but this one makes up for it all by looking good. (more…)

Fujitsu Seimens: Going stylishly LCD can be green too

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

Okay so we all know that solar-run technology and robotics are what’s making news around the world, but little do we expect to see it from manufacturers who just haven’t been into making that kind of stuff before, init? Like for example, Fujitsu Seimens (whose product we are talking about now), hasn’t exactly been into the LCD monitors business, let alone blend that with greentech. So this one’s a first timer both ways. (more…)

Un Teléfono Audi: ¿Estará escuchando Apple?

Monday, November 12th, 2007

Algunos ricachones tienen el teléfono Audi y el iPhone también, mientras que otros tienen uno solo. Pero bueno, hay una tercera generación de gente moderna que querrá hacerlo con un poco más de estilo. Y es para ellos sin duda, que el Audi Phone (que es lo que ves aquí arriba) que este prototipo ha sido realizado. El aparato telefónico debe ir junto con el auto, actuando como llave de combinación, unidad de navegación, y reproductor de audio y video, además de ser la interfaz del sistema del auto. Usa tanto la tecnología WiFi como las comunicaciones UGMTS para darte una captura de imagen a través de sus cámaras digitales incluidas (una característica más de seguridad) y también actúa como receptor para el aparato de ubicación del auto.
