Philips Norelco Bodygroom BG2030

I had a chance to try out the new Bodygroom BG2030 from Philips and Norelco, and I have to say that my face has never been so smooth. It was only afterward that I discovered that the Bodygroom is actually designed for all areas below the neck.

However, it worked on my face! What can I say, the product does above and beyond its capacity. If you don’t believe me, check out some before and after pics of a now handsomer blogger after the jump.

The Bodygroom is designed for “sensitive areas” like the underarms, chest, legs, back, and the (ahem) groin area. In case you are worried about cutting yourself, there is a hypoallergenic shaving foil for some extra protection. It can be used for wet and dry shaving, and runs for about 50 minutes on an eight hour charge.

Other features include a Fast Extra-Large trimming comb to quickly trim hair in large areas, and an Extra-Sensitive trimming comb to comfortably trim hair in more sensitive areas.

So, if you are the type who wants to shave everywhere, I highly recommend this razor. You should be able to get it everywhere, and I recently found it on Amazon for a little under $49.99.

Just for fun, I have included some clips of the Bodygroom Manalogues for your enjoyment. Enjoy the bleeped out parts with graphics when he is discussing more sensitive issues of shaving.

This futuristic idea appears to be very important and handy as the public transportations is in increase.

There are the main rotors with a tail rotor at its back. The futuristic looking car features blades on its rotor to stay folded and invisible while not in use. The conceptual car drives on the big front wheels as well as the small one to be operating as the tail rotor. Tail rotor is used to arrange steering. There is also a control sphere as well as special buttons to drive this new generating helicopter car.

Eee PC 1008HA Seashell Netbook

Well, Asus has gone to great lengths to provide a press release that equates their latest laptop, the Eee PC 1008HA Seashell netbook, to all things beach.

Wind Chime Alarm Clock

We seem to live in a world where alarm clocks are really popular since there are so many models out there and so many that are really interesting and probably really popular with many individuals. This might be the case with the Wind Chime Alarm Clock too. This gadget has everything you would expect from an alarm clock: 12 hours and 24 hours clocks, stopwatch function, date showing and good design.

Now the one thing that makes this alarm clock special stands in the fact that we are faced with 2 different ways in which you can wake up. One is the classic electronic beep while the other one is the relaxing sound of wind chimes. The only real problem stands in the fact that choosing the wind chimes mode will drain battery life but we can surely live with that small problem. You should know that the Wind Chime Alarm Clock needs 3 batteries (AAA) in order to run. We hope you like this alarm clock gadget as it does seem quite interesting and it is only $19.95 so quite cheap too.

Crunchpad 12-inch Tablet Pictures

We first heard about the Crunchpad January 2009. Now, and ironically, the company that is known for getting the scoop has been scooped. Last night a handful of pictures detailing the latest iteration of the Crunchpad were leaked to the blogosphere. Soon after Crunchgear, the gadget arm of Techcrunch conceded and posted more pics since the ‘cat was out of the bag’. Now Arrington, the man behind the curtain has written a post dedicated to the Crunchpad discussing its genesis and more importantly the cost to build the machine, $250.

Techcrunch hasn’t said if the machine will come to market, but at the end of the day, and as I commented on another blog, the Crunchpad is an oversized MID, which for some will either hate it or love it. So to be clear, don’t expect it to be a data entry machine or a full blown email device. No, the Crunchpad will be for you and your friends to huddle around and watch stupid YouTube clips of kids falling on their faces or glancing at your email.


Specs that we know:

* 12-inch capacitive touchscreen
* Microphone
* Macbook Air thin
* Intel Atom processor

Ultrasone Pro 900 Headphones Review

Let me say this right now. Your music is not good enough for these headphones. Remember that $4 milkshake from Pulp Fiction? That only scratches the surface of how utterly awesome the UltraSone Pro 900 headphones are. From listening to MP3’s to working in Pro Tools, I was honestly blown away by the sheer magnitude of quality that the Pro 900’s achieve.

The Pro 900’s come with a really nice hard shell case, two styles or cord, and two styles of velvet ear padding. They even come with a demo CD that contains various genres of music and sound effects. They are constructed of a thick plastic and plush velvet foam and feel very solid and comfortable even after hours of extended use.

These headphones are basically a thesaurus for every positive descriptive term there is, they’re that incredible. Rich and balanced bass response is complimented by refined treble and mid range frequencies. Discerning ears will definitely hear differences in bit rates and levels of production quality of their MP3’s. That’s the thing, the Pro 900’s are so accurate and true that they’ll literally pick apart your music. You’ll notice flaws in recording techniques and appreciate subtle nuances that you’ve never heard before.

As I’ve mentioned in past headphone and earbud reviews, an important variable in gauging the quality of a headphone is going to be the source material you’re listening to. With today’s music listener using primarily MP3’s that have fluctuating compressions, it makes it more difficult to accurately judge what’s really going on.

I was able to clearly tell when recordings and mixes were all over the place as well as when everything was tight and compact. For whatever it’s worth, it definitely made me more critical towards my judgement of recorded music. But a rare treat in that. Makes me wish I had had these twenty years ago!

The only thing I didn’t like about the Pro 900’s was the input jack. You need to attach the 3.5mm adapter to use it with any MP3 player and it ends up sticking out really far and can be slightly obtrusive. Other than that, these are the best headphones I have ever heard point blank, period. If they’re in your budget or you have to save up for a couple months to buy them, they will be one of the best things you can buy for yourself as a music lover. Even from an audio engineering standpoint, mixing and recording with the Pro 900’s was a sheer blast. I absolutely recommend the UltraSone Pro 900’s to everyone who has the cash to drop on some immensely amazing headphones.

Pros:

* Unbelievable sound reproduction
* Extremely competent across multiple scenarios
* Comfortable and durable

Cons:

* Mad pricey!
* Length of input jack when coupled with 3.5mm adapter is cumbersome
* That’s it!

Buy them here for $469!

Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles iPhone

I have always been hesitant to acknowledge the iPhone as being a true gaming console. The lack of buttons and the accelerometer didn’t do a whole lot for me and while most games were cheap, they were more a novelty than anything else, and couldn’t be played for more than 5 minutes. Having never played or even followed the Nintendo DS version of this game, Assassin’s Creed: Altair’s Chronicles is a huge leap forward in gaming on the iPhone. Whereas Metal Gear Solid Touch was merely a name recognition cash grab and an incomplete game, ACAC is a full game with responsive controls and a lengthy playtime of about 6 hours.

ACAC is an action platformer that takes place before the events of the original Assassin’s Creed on consoles and PC. Altair’s mission is to secure a sacred chalice in the year 1191 AD in several locations around Jerusalem. The game has a progressive upgrade system that gives you access to more moves and weapons as you complete levels. It is for the most part totally linear and I suggest playing through once on the easy difficulty setting before the harder one for maximum replay value.

The graphics of ACAC are standout. Rich and vivid colors and competent animations make this game one to showcase to your friends the true power of the iPhone. Slow down did occur on a handful of occasions when the action got hectic but it was never that bothersome. Even though your thumbs are all over the screen, the widescreen presentation works well overall and you never feel like the screen is too small.

The sound was decent at best. Street noise and clatter were a nice ambient backdrop, but the voice acting left something to be desired. The dialog could have been picked out of hat and Altair’s voice was weaker than the NPC voiceovers. The music and sound did cut out many times randomly but did not affect gameplay. What also affected the sound was the use of your right hand on the iPhone as it often covered the speaker and muffled the volume.

Digital photo albums are not new, and this one is, probably, the most comfortable in usage.

It is quite compact - not bigger than a paperback - the dimensions of the portable digital photo viewer are the following: 19.5cm x 11.3cm x 1.4 cm, so you can bear it in your pocket. It features a 7-inch screen display with 800 x 480 resolution and is compatible with SD card.

The Album digital photo gallery is capable of storing 40.000 photos which can be downloaded directly from SD card or Digital Camera. It is quite easy to use: it allows creating folders, deleting photos, changing pictures manually, and offers the possibility of slideshow and three hours of battery life.



Moreover, the digital photo album comes in a leather case that can be used as a stand for the device. You can buy it for 263 USD. It is quite expensive, but the storage capabilities are worth the money.

Pinhole Camera

If you like to make fun and joke on your friends than this new camera is for you. Its specific feature is that it is made in the form of gun. If you are a fan of movies with much shooting and fights and want to feel yourself like James Bond you can try it.

This camera is the product of the famous designer - Franziska Dierschkeare. It differs from other cameras not only in its gun shape, but in some several characteristics. First of all, it does not have a viewfinder, so it will be in vain to look for it. You have already guessed that this camera is not for professional photographers, but rather for those who like to take photos of their friends and family. All you need is to point the camera on the object as accurately as you can and shoot.

According to the designer, this specification emphasizes the process of photo taking, but not the picture itself. The camera comes in several color variants: white and green.

Eye-popping space solar power by PG&E

Is not it good to live in clean and green world. Solar powered space station appears to become the reality with its new project from PG&E. This amazing space station which is powered by the sun is something that became a reality nowadays. There will be satellites powered by the sun with a range of 22 000 miles over the Earth’s equator. Principle of operation is that generated energy is transformed into radio waves to finally convert to an Earth station.

It is scheduled that PG will be supplying 200 MW of base load power in Solar En Corp. by 2016. Most energy is generated with danger to our environment while new technologies are in the works to be sufficient on a worldwide scale. Solar power stationed in space is superior rather than solar stations placed on the land and prove to be more efficient up to 10 times.

The very important factor is the fact that space solar panels are able to act as base load power sources, given 24 hours of sunlight per day. The satellites are going to be launched into a geosynchronous orbit to be 22,000 miles over the Earth’s equator. Once the solar station is deployed, sun rays are collecting to finally become radio waves. So the waves will be reflected to Earth back to a receiving station.

Radiation is said to be a danger for our planet, but its followers insist that there will be no harm to our planet as well as for vegetation and animals. The project is highly expensive to cost about billion. The project is highly productive in the other hand, with 2 to 4.8 gig watts of power being generated. Actually, they are expected to produce power which will be sufficient for 250,000 homes.


Solaren Corporation was launched in 2001. Called “California C Corporation”, it consists of around highly skilled space 10 engineers and scientists with the intention to construct a space energy company to produce power in geosynchronous orbit. They intend to increase its power production more than 100 this year. The idea was born due to the presence of efficiency energy conversion devices as well as launch vehicle developments.

What is interesting is that it is going to become the first solar space station in the world. It is reported to generate power in 2016 due to experience of the engineers. Additionally, the SSP satellites are verified before being launched. As soon as it is in geosynchronous orbit, satellite will be checked with all its functions and performance. Solaren's SSP energy conversion process is carried out absolutely carbon-free.

The whole process is quiet amazing, with satellites using solar cells in space in order to transform the sun’s power into electricity. The SSPA devices transmits electricity into RF energy, with satellite transforming RF energy to the ground receive station. Finally, the ground receiver transports the RF power into

Head Mounter Camera - Taser Axon

Although we are talking about just a concept device, it is one that is really interesting. The Taser Axon is designed in order to provide no discomfort and is aimed towards policemen. We are basically talking about an innovative gadget (from some point of views) that is attached to a video camera and worn by a policeman. The idea stands in the fact that with such a unit we can easily record everything that the policeman sees daily. The Taser Axon will mount around your head in a similar fashion as a pair of headphones. We thus might have concreete police prrof of what happened and this should be great for prosecutions. You can no longer deny anything if it is on camera.

Forex Trading Software

Looks like on-line gamers are moving to different, more serious stuff these days because of the financial crisis that is going on. If seriously they probably don’t but anyway it could be the truth that Forex Trading is so popular these days because of the tough economic conditions. Why have gamers emerged in my mind? Probably because on-line currency trading via Forex is not any less exiting or thrilling than a quest scenario. Forex Trading Software in hands of a person who has even a smallest insight into world of financing becomes a powerful tool not mentioning professionals or even teams of benefit aimed enthusiasts.

The reason why Forex Trading Software gains popularity is that it does most brokers’ work. Forex charts alone can give a solid piece of information. But currency trading is not limited with charts of course. There are plenty of other features in the CMS. For instance the most powerful are availability of all technical indicators, risk manage, Dow Jones news, etc. Most of user’s helpers are customizable so one wouldn’t suffer from a flow of irrelevant information.


The software package itself is easy to install. 5.5 MB download was flawless and the system requirements are incomparably humble. All this makes me think that with all the knowledge resources hidden in the Web more people will be better off with Forex.

SmartFaucet from iHouse

Internet and high-tech gadgets have already penetrated in our life to an unbelievable level:cameras in belts, Bluetooth watches electronic car keys finders and high technology is coming to our kitchens and bathrooms. iHouse presents a new gadget along its cell phone controlled bathtub that prepares an excellent bath with an only one phone call – SmartFaucet - which is one of those devices that are necessary, but the word “smart” makes it different from the ordinary faucets.

The SmartFaucet by iHouse is highly convenient due to its characteristics: it has a face recognition technology. The essence of this technology is the following: the camera recognizes you and the faucet remembers different temperature settings for each member of your family and automatically adjusts the temperature of the water to the preferred level. The water is heated with a built-in internal heating coil, and, moreover, there are ihouse-smart-faucet which change the color of the water from blue to red to show its temperature. Additionally, a completely new feature, the users will have the access to their e-mail. There is a touchscreen display on the faucet which enables you to check your calendar, e-mail and the outside temperature.

There is no information concerning the SmartFaucet availability and price, but we may suppose it would be rather expensive.

Stay connected with a new concept car

Have you ever thought about how social networking can be of any avail, once you are on the road with no car to drive? Designer Varun Niti Singh has his own vision of what the new generation cars should do and how they are going to interact. The whole idea is to make it possible for the drivers to get a new driving experience by joining other cars. How is it possible? Networked vehicles are never seen before models but it proves to be important in critical situations.

Futuristically designed Dot car is more than just a regular car and the question is not only that it is an electric car. The main concept of this zero emissions vehicle is to have a great driving performance with sustainable results. Networked vehicle one day can become a normal thing on the roads, where many drivers are in a hurry. As soon as the car is on the road, it will be able to join other participants of road traffic.

It is quiet obvious that these participants should be vehicles that will be able to get their destinations thanks to the fore-going Dot car. It is really interesting idea but there main point here is would you rely on a driving experience of someone you do not know. Anyway, it is a very nice concept car and what is important is that it is an ecologically friendly model. Electric power will possibly limit its speed, but it does not seem to be a problem.

Griffin Power Dock 4 For iPhone/iPod

new anouncemet It is often more than likely which families and households have more than one Apple product. I myself have an iPhone and an iPod Classic. The Griffin PowerDock 4 for iPhones & iPods is an awesome choice for any family or bunch. The PowerDock 4 is also an ideal choice for vacations and traveling.

Sort of like “stadium seating” for you iProducts, the PowerDock 4 is simple in its utilitarian design and is meant for being away from the computer. I say that because there are no USB inputs or anything else besides the wall plug and the 4 charging ports.

Embracing the often visual flair indicitive of Griffin products, the PowerDock 4 looks very upscale with its brushed aluminum exterior and would match many home’s kitchen appliances or maybe on bath room. The Griffin name is emblazoned on the front and the rest is made of a glossy black plastic. The bottomside has a rubber base to give the PowerDock 4 traction on most all surfaces.

The PowerDock 4 comes equipped with 8 black plastic inserts for many different iPods and iPhones. Once they are attached they require a knife to remove so there’s no real risk of them falling out when packing into a bag for travel use.

As simple as the PowerDock 4 is, it would have been nice to see some extra features nonetheless. Adding some USB ports would have been nice for charging Mophie Juice Packs or iPods/iPhones in 3rd party cases, and computer compatibility would have made it more versitile. Charging indicator lights would have been well received as you have to manually check each gadget to see where it’s at during the charging process. A bonus would also be a retractable power cord so the PowerDock could be just one piece. Also be sure to check the list of included inserts to make sure you don’t have to order additional ones.

End result is that if you need something to ONLY charge multiple iProducts, then the Griffin PowerDock 4 is probably your best bet. I have seen a couple other chargers out there for up to 4 devices, but I would reccomend checking out the Griffin PowerDock 4 before anything else.

Pros:

* Simple setup and easy to use
* Looks at home in the kitchen
* Decreases the amount gadget clutter

Cons:

* Does not “sync” with computers
* Only charges Apple iPods and iPhones
* May be pricey for just a charger

Lenovo MRT800 Touchscreen PMP Looks Pretty

Looks like Lenovo, the long time computer maker, has plans to introduce a touchscreen PMP into the market. Although we don’t know price or exact release date the specs are as follows: 4.3-inch touchscreen with a 480×272 resolution, microSD slot, FM tuner and codec compatibility with RMVB, AVI, ASF, MP4 and FLV for video and MP3, WMA, OGG, APE, FLAC and WAV for audio. What, no phone?

Optimus Maximus

Well, everybody is crazy about the Optimus Maximus Keyboard and it is quite easy to understand why. The only real problem stands in the price tag, which ranges anywhere from $1000 to around $1800. There is also a $400 and something version, but that one basically includes plastic keys and this is not what the Optimus Maximus is famous for. This keyboard is revolutionary and the simple fact that every single key includes an OLED display is something tremendous. You can make every single key look however you want to and even do whatever you want to. You even get an extra 10 keys that you can configure differently. To make it even more special, the Optimus Maximus also comes with an SD memory card slot and a USB hub that you can use in order to store various keyboard settings you want to save. The Optimus Maximus Keyboard only works on Microsoft Windows Vista, MAC 10.5.1 and Windows XP.

WebConnect USB Laptop Stick

At 25 March 2009 T-Mobile debuts with WebConnect USB Laptop Stick. Precondition to it was that Wi-Fi and 3G network blanketing the nation and it’s time to something new.

Produced by Huawei Technologies Co., this small, portable modem gives you the simple way to connect to the Web using T-Mobile’s 3G networks or Wi-Fi. This is possible with built-in T-Mobile Connection Manager software. It helps user to automatically detect the best available Internet connection

In addition, WebConnect USB Laptop Stick offers to connect to compatible networks overseas. It works with tri-band 3G connectivity (HSDPA/UMTS 1900/AWS/2100). If you are in an area where there is no 3G coverage, Laptop Stick can connect you to GPRS/EDGE networks. And you are not left to search out a Wi-Fi hot spot as your only option of getting online.

But this is not all that T-Mobile offers to you. Laptop Stick can work also as a portable storage device. It’s equipped with a microSD/SDHC expansion slot that can accept up to 8GB cards. Now it’s easier to store information and connect to the Internet.

One of the offered services starts at 59.99 USD which gives you 5GB of wireless data per month.

To be informed about your traffic limits and to minimize overage charges, Connection Manager software also monitors how much you have left for the month and how much data you have used.

Fit-PC2 - the smallest computer in the world

CompuLab introduces fit-PC2 which is now the smallest personal computer in the world. Fit-PC2 appears to be different from other nettop PCs at least by its tiny size. The device measures 115x101x27 mm which is smaller than a Compact Disk. The case of fit-PC2 consists of aluminum which disperses heat so no fan is used. Fanless operation makes it noiseless and totally silent if used with a solid state disk.



Fit-PC2 seems to be standard computer with specifications as follows

• 1.6GHz x86 CPU
  
• 1GB RAM
  
• SATA hard disk
  
• DVI with graphics acceleration
  
• High definition audio
  
• LAN and WLAN
  
• 6 USB ports

Users can appreciate various capabilities of fit-PC2. Low power consumption is another plus which makes it the most power-efficient Intel Atom PC until now. Power consumption is just 6W in normal operation in Windows XP or Linux. Taking into consideration its power consumption it may be well named a Green Computer. Its weight is just 370g including hard disk which is nothing compared to another PCs. Fit-PC2 can be controlled via IR remote control. Fit-PC2 is able to withstand extreme temperatures, vibration or a high level of shock. Affordable price, good performance, low power consumption, tiny size makes fit-PC2 an ideal personal computer for end users.

Unsafe MP3/BlueTooth/CallerID/FM

While this product might have had cool design beginnings, they clearly fell to the wayside upon completion. Look at all the inputs begging you to dangle cords all over the place and clusterf**k the s**t out of your driving space. Is it even legal? Seems like more of a potential nuisance than anything. It is cheap though. Only $40. It’s unclear as to whether or not it fits all steering wheels or if it has any extenders and such. Here’s the specs:

• Designed to mount on the inside of the steering/driving wheel
• Comes with a free detachable, auto-charging Bluetooth Wireless Earpiece
• 0.8? LCD display with Caller ID feature Powered by 3rd generation CSR Bluetooth design
• Supports HSP, HFP, A2DP, AVRCP bluetooth profiles
• Plays music and transmits to car stereo (radio) system
• Accepts the following inputs:
  • Stereo bluetooth A2DP/AVRCP devices
  • 2.5mm line in port
  • MicroSD/Transflash TF cards containing MP3 files (up to 4GB TF)
  • USB flash/jump drive containing MP3 files
• Full range FM transmission channels selection: 87.5-108.0MHz

Time Bomb Alarm Clock

Now the first joke that will come to your mind when you see this clock will be the obvious “security checkpoint” joke but there’s other ones out there. Dude, that clock’s the bomb. Boo! Not that one. Either way, there are always these new and fun clocks popping up and I just love to post on them.

Hip hop culture zombies will love this clock as well as possibly miners and demolitionists too. Oh, and terrorists. Not sure if the alarm sounds like explosions but that would be a nice touch for sure. I can’t imagine smooth snooze periods with this thing around. Like Jimmie Walker I’m a…..!

UK Government Claims Playing Video Games Will Make You Die Sooner

Expert grief. The UK Government Change4Life campaign has made a few bastardized claims drawing a parallel between gamers and heart disease and early death. Yeah, I’ve died countless times playing games. Quite the long term study I’m sure. Ads from the Change4Life campaign have appeared in several UK womens magazines that depict a lethargic little gamer just sit there wait for cancer. What’s the point here? Obviously this is upsetting to gaming industry but what does it mean? Nothing.

PMS Buddy Awaits SNL Parody. It’s That Life Touching

PMS Buddy Awaits SNL Parody. It’s That Life Touching After reading some of the testimonials at PMSbuddy.com I had not idea that PMS was such a turmoil bringer. The PMS tracking website is currently monitoring close to 23,000 cycles with about 800 periods starting today and the PMS pressure gauge hasn’t even broken halfway yet! Talk about a flood warning!!

New to the app store, the PMSBuddy for your iPhone or iPod Touch is your “know her flow on the go” solution for all you out there fighting through the trenches of PMS laced tyranny. Boasting the slogan “saving relationships one month at a time” PMS Buddy begs me to ask the question of how many actual relationships really crumble under the weighted shackles of PMS? I think that if PMS is that detrimental to your relationship then PMS is probably not the problem.

Anyway, the reviews I have read have been very positive and it has helped many people so far. The iPhone app is pretty much a streamlined version of the online service with a couple of differences and is extremely easy to use. You can track up to 10 women’s cycles and the time at which their period will occur. However, if you have tons of problems dealing with PMS it may be unlikely that you even know 10 women. Beyond that, you input the name of the female and the last known date of cycle and the average length. PMS Buddy recommends the average 28 day cycle. That’s it. PMS Buddy automatically gives the exact date of the women’s next period so you can know when to pick up your chain mail from the blacksmith.

Rock Legend for iPhone / iPod Touch (video)

What’s the opposite of legend? Whatever you deem an appropriate antonym, that’s exactly what Rock Legend is. In an attempt to make a streamlined air guitar app, Rock Legend falls face first atop a pile of broken guitars. Simply put, this app just doesn’t work that well. I had a uniquely bad experience each time I fired up this app to give it a try.

We all know the basic motions when it comes to air guitar so I don’t have to explain that. Each of the included 4 songs has a pre programmed chord progression that you “motion” into effect. Sometimes it worked, most times it didn’t. In the video below I actually get it to work! It took me 4 video tries to get there though! Trying to get this app to work sort of requires you to be familiar with the songs and their chord progressions in order to get the timing down. If you don’t it doesn’t really matter anyway.

With that said, the thing that doesn’t work the most is the timing of the riffs. The AC/DC riff “Highway to Hell” is one of the most instantly recognizable classic metal riffs. Not here. Even if you strum in time with how the riff should go, it’s late and it plays the same chords too many times before switching to the next chord. There’d be times where a crowd applause noise would appear out of nowhere and the two “stop pads” were completely unresponsive. Ideally the stop pads are there to help you stop the chord from ringing out so you can air strum the next one, but from my experience they did not work whatsoever.

Nokia 6208c announced in China

Nokia was keeping us interested in its premieres all-round the year 2008 and the very last presentation of Nokia's smartphone was held on the 31st of December, right before the New Year. At the ceremony in Nanjing, China, Nokia unveiled the 6208c mobile phone. The place for the presentation was not chosen accidentally of course. Many of those who follow major events in the world of gadgets might have become desperate to see any recent novelty before it appears in China, but Nokia 6208c is not likely to go round world markets – China will be the first and one of the few 6208c's markets. This point is founded in the concept of the smartphone, in its Asian design, or may be in the fact that 6208c is a testing platform of new touchscreen capabilities.

So, what does Asian design actually mean to Nokia 6208c? The first thing to mansion is that Nokia's corporate design didn't go far away, so Nokia is easily recognized in the 6208c model. When I saw it for the fist time, 6300 communicator has come to my mind, but obviously, 6208c takes the 6708's way, which is also a classic form factor touchscreen released in 2006. Secondly, 6208c is all about little creative differences in design. For instance, I can not bypass its stylus. This is the most interesting stylus by design ever I believe. However, I don't like calling it weird or strange because Nokia would not place a poorly though out product under world's consideration, and who knows, may be it turns out to be so comfortable to use, that you wouldn't like to change it. Anyway the idea was to make it look like bamboo slips. Not an ordinary design of course, hence questionable, so let's move to unquestionable pluses. One of those is Chinese hieroglyph recognition, write it down on the notepad and the phone will find the most appropriate hieroglyph in its library. Very good, but Nokia is not the first to have this sort of thing, iPhone also has this feature.

Turbo NAS TS-809U-RP - 16 TB from QNAP Systems

NAS systems seem to never be ideally perfect, reliable, widely compatible or easy to use. Even though there are pretty big names in the business like LaCie, Addonics, Western Digital, etc. we still were able to find a thing or two to mend in their products. This is really annoying because NAS systems are what seatbelt is to a car driver – not the most exiting thing in a car but truly life-saving. There we are then, with a new NAS gadget from QNAP Systems – model TS-809U-RP Turbo NAS.

The presentation of TS-809U-RP Turbo NAS was held today in Taipei, so there is not much to say about different tweaks and upgrades - only very basic numbers which are impressive. Numbers in turn show not only performance of the Turbo NAS, but also grater stability and enhanced feature list. The stats are: 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 2 GB DDR II memory. Storage space as giant as 16 TB of 8 SATA hard drives with hot-swapping and Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (S. M. A. R. T.). Network redundancy is provided by two Giga LAN ports. The rest of the long list of NAS' features is probably less interesting, so here are best bits of it: automatic policy-based IP blocking, RAID 0/ 1/ 5/ 6/ 5+spare/ 6+spare, Online RAID Capacity Expansion and Level Migration. One of my favorite features is the "Surveillance Station" - Turbo NAS can playback live image from up to four IP-based cams. No problems with OS' ether - Windows, Mac, UNIX, Linux. Well done, QNAP!

eSlick - Amazon Kindle and Sony Reader rival, but cheaper

More news in e-Reader industry has recently been caught in attention on the Web. The most popular e-Readers today are, of course, Amazon Kindle and Sony Reader. Both of electronic gadgets have different and already well known advantages and drawbacks, but now it is clear that pretty soon they will meet up with a new competitor they both wouldn't like to have. The competitor we are speaking about is eSlick from Foxit Software. We will talk about eSlick's strong and weak sides later, but now let's say that Foxit eSlick doesn't start shipping this December which means it doesn't steal any of Amazon Kindle's and Sony Reader's sales in the hot New Year period.

So, why are we so sure about Foxit Software's eSlick to threaten the other two big moguls? First of all it is its MSRP that matters. Mind you that Amazon Kindle costs about 360 USD and Sony Reader – full 400 USD. eSlick will cost you only about 260 USD, which will save you at least 100 USD if you was going to buy a e-Reader. eSlick has quite an average pack of features, though they claim to be enough. End user might only face a problem in case he needs to wirelessly download content, which is impossible to do with Foxit's gadget and Foxit doesn't provide its clients with any library (Amazon and Sony do). In rest, everything seems to be fine with eSlick. It has 800 x 600 Mpx display, 128 MB of internal memory. Memory is expandable, and in stock, eSlick comes with 2 GB SD card. Synchronization is done via USB 2.0 hub, so you can upload text, PDF and MP3 files on eSlick. It runs Linux operating system by the way and is able to convert more files to PDF format. eSlick is up to live 8000 pages until a full charge goes off and three colors are available: white, grey and black. Once again sales start in January '09 but pre-order is already available.
