<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">Cadillac Life Phone adopts fluid technology for display screen guarded by a silicone coating. Touch screen display aids in accessing all functionalities. The liquid solidifies on passage of electric current through it which is done whenever the phone needs to be opened. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">Accommodating a couple of projectors, which aid in transmuting this phone into a Laptop. The Keyboard and screen of the Laptop gets projected on the screen and can be accessed from there.

<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">This phone also serves as a digital key to everything from home gadgets to other necessities. On board are solar panels for charging along with the battery. When actualized this concept phone would be accompanied by a mobile headset and USB 5.0 for breathing life into the cell beyond the solar energy. Promising to be as sharp as tack, it would boar 80 GB SSD, 4 GB RAM and would be adaptable to various video configurations. The videos would be displayed through holographic projectors.</span> <div align="justify"> <br />

It's going to be a very exciting year</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p style="margin: 0px;">With its regular keynote address at MacWorld Expo<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>consigned to the dustbin of history<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>all bets are off as to when Apple will lay down new product in 2010.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">However, we'd expect them to start arriving in late January. Here is what we think you're in store for from Apple next year.</p><p style="margin: 0px;"><strong>1. The Apple Tablet</strong></p><p style="margin: 0px;">The consensus amongst the industry is that the arrival of<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Apple's tablet device<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>in 2010 is as inevitable as England making a hash of the first round of the World Cup. February is the most touted date for the Jesus Tablet.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">"The new touch-sensitive device Apple is working on will have a screen that may be up to 10 inches diagonally.

Excited? You should be, this is going to be huge.</p><p style="margin: 0px;"><strong>2. iPhone 4G</strong></p><p style="margin: 0px;">Just to be clear, we're talking about a next generation iPhone here, not 4G broadband. The exciting news is that Apple is in the process of trialling the next generation iPhone.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">The developer of the iPhone app iBart<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.macrumors.com/2009/11/28/apple-starts-field-testing-next-generation-iphone-31/">noticed an iPhone labeled 3,1</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>in their PinchMedia analytics logs. The identifier "iPhone3,1" appeared in Pandav's usage logs this November, and doesn't match any shipping iPhone (the last iPhone released, the iPhone 3GS, has the identifier "iPhone2,1".</p><p style="margin: 0px;">The iPhone 4G release date and features haven't been announced, but we'd expect something much later than February (no point clashing with the iTablet, and June and July have seen previous iPhone releases). We expect more storage and perhaps a multi-core processor and<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Wii-like sensor?</p><p style="margin: 0px;">The latest<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>iPhone 4G rumours<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>suggest a release date of June 2010, and that the phone will sport a dual core processor. Other current rumours include a removable and longer lasting battery, a front-facing video camera, an OLED screen and an improved camera.</p><p style="margin: 0px;"><strong>3. Revamped Mac Pro</strong></p><p style="margin: 0px;">Apple followers will already know that the new Quad-Core i5 and i7 processors from Intel have featured in Apple's iMac range, but forget Quad-Core computing, Intel's new Xeon "Gulftown" processor offers 6-Core processing.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">It will be sold under the name Core i9, and the rumour (from<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/11/29/intels_six_core_gulftown_processor_revealed_possibly_headed_to_mac_pro.html">Apple Insider</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>and<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/new_mac_pros_to_include_6-core_xeon_processor/">The Mac Observer</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>is that we could see it debuting in a revamped Mac Pro as early as first quarter 2010. Since it offers a reported 50% performance boost over quad-core chips there's a real reason to be excited about it.</p><p style="margin: 0px;">"If paired with another chip, as Apple usually does in its high-end workstations, the processors will offer 12 physical and 24 logical cores." said Apple Insider.</p><p style="margin: 0px;"><strong>4. iPod touch with video</strong></p><p style="margin: 0px;">The spectacular non-appearance of an iPod touch with a camera was 2009's biggest let down for Apple fans.

</div>For something that doesn't officially exist yet, the Apple iTablet is generating an awful lot of coverage - but this time there appears to be fire inside all the smoke.<br />
After years of rumours it seems that the Apple iTablet will break cover in a matter of days. <br />
So what do we really know about the most anticipated bit of technology since the USB lava lamp? Come with us as we filter the River of Rumour for the Shiny Nuggets of Truth.<br />
<b>1. The Apple Tablet is called the Apple iSlate</b><br />
Apple definitely bought the domain name iSlate.com two years ago, and the Apple iSlate <a href="http://www.macrumors.com/2009/12/28/another-buried-apple-trademark-iguide-as-an-alternative-name-to-islate">may run software called iGuide</a>. Then again, <a href="http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2010/01/19/apple-iphone-os-4-0-features-detailed-also-apple-calling-tablet-the-itablet/">Boy Genius Report reckons</a> that the final name will be iTablet - but many people prefer <a href="http://daringfireball.net/linked/2010/01/19/ipad">iBook</a>. As Apple doesn't make iBooks any more, the name would be perfect for an ebook-media-internet-thingummy.<br />
<b>2. The Apple iSlate release date is in March, or April, or maybe later than that</b><br />
The Apple iSlate release date appears to be rather cloudy: while everyone agrees that the iSlate will finally be unveiled this month, it won't ship until March, or maybe <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5422457/apple-tablet-launching-march-or-april-analyst-says">April</a>, or maybe later than that. As for a first look at the Apple iSlate - there's an Apple event on 27 January where it's expected that Steve Jobs will show off the tablet.<br />
<b>3. The Apple iSlate will be an ebook reader</b><br />
The iGuide's trademark description specifically mentions books, magazines, newsletters and journals, so the Apple iSlate will be pitched at least partly as an ebook reader. <br />
According to <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/apple-to-demo-tablet-in-january-asks-developers-to-get-apps-ready-2009-12">Silicon Alley Insider</a> Apple has already approached key iPhone developers and asked them to scale their apps for a bigger screen, and if that's true then the Apple iSlate will be running a variant of the iPhone OS complete with App Store. <br />
<b>4. The Apple iSlate will have 3G and Wi-Fi, or maybe just Wi-Fi</b><br />
Depending on how you interpret the responses in a recent interview given by Orange France's Stephane Richard there will be a 3G Apple iSlate with an integrated webcam. If there is a 3G version we'd expect a Wi-Fi-only version, too, in much the same way that the iPod is an iPhone without the phone bit. <br />
Then again, <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/apple/6973573/Orange-backtracks-over-Apple-tablet-claims.html">Orange says</a> Richard's remarks were taken out of context and mistranslated, and Steve Jobs has had him shot.<br />
Maybe it's just the webcam bit that Richard got wrong, though. <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2010/jan/19/apple-islate-mobile-phone-subsidies">The Guardian reports</a> that Apple has been talking to UK mobile operators to find a network partner for its tablet.<br />
<b>5. The Apple iSlate will have a virtual keyboard and maybe 3D</b><br />
So what user interface will the Apple iSlate have? MacRumors' <a href="http://www.macrumors.com/2010/01/11/fingerworks-com-content-pulled-ahead-of-apple-tablet-announcement/">discovery of an old Fingerworks press release</a> - yes, the same Apple-owned Fingerworks whose site Apple mysteriously shuttered mere moments ago - describes a virtual keyboard "that serves as mouse, standard keyboard, and powerful multi-finger gesture interpreter". This suggests that the user interface will be a cross between an iPhone and a Macbook's trackpad. The New York Times <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/09/technology/personaltech/09reader.html">quotes</a> a former Apple designer who claims the firm has created a multi-touch version of iWork.<br />
Apple has also <a href="http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/technology/2010/01/apple_tablet_3d.html">patented a 3D user interface</a> that may or may not end up in the tablet. Whether it's 3D or 2D, the New York Times <a href="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/12/23/2010-the-year-of-the-tablet/">says</a> "you will be very surprised how you interact with the new tablet."<br />
<b>6. The Apple</b> <b>iSlate will be a gaming machine</b><br />
Apple has invited leading videogame journalists to its 27 January event in the US, with <a href="http://kotaku.com/5451042/apple-invites-us-to-jan-27-special-event-think-islate?skyline=true&s=i">Kotaku</a> reporting that it has received its invite to the launch. "We have been anticipating a major move from Apple in the games market for some time," said <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com/">CVG</a> editor Tim Ingham. "This could well be it." <br />
<b>7. The Apple iSlate will be 10 inches</b><br />
How big will it be? For months we've heard that the size of the Apple iSlate would be seven inches or nine inches, but somebody close to Apple has deliberately <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703580904574638630584151614.html">leaked key details to the Wall Street Journal</a> including a "10 to 11-inch touchscreen". <br />
We'd certainly trust the WSJ ahead of Phonearena.com, which claims to have a <a href="http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Apple-iSlate-specifications-revealed-article-a_8530.html">leaked Apple spec sheet</a> detailing a 7.1" tablet running "clouded Leopard". Hmmm. <br />
As <a href="http://www.techradar.com/news/computing/apple/5-most-likely-apple-products-of-2010-659370">we put it in December</a>, "we're looking at a device that is essentially a super-sized iPod touch".<br />
<img alt="Apple tablet" src="http://cdn.mos.techradar.com//classifications/images/appleitablet-420-100.jpg" width="420" /><br />
<b>GROWING UP:</b> <i>"A super-sized iPod touch" is exactly what the Apple</i> <i>iSlate is likely to be. Are you excited yet?</i><br />
<b>8. The Apple</b> <b>iSlate used to be seven inches</b><br />
It's possible that the smaller sizes were Apple iSlate prototypes, as an anonymous designer has <a href="http://www.tgdaily.com/consumer-electronics-brief/45445-apple-takes-a-bite-out-of-lcd-and-oled-supply">told TG Daily</a> that it's almost impossible to get hold of 10.1" LCD or OLED screens from any Asian manufacturer as Apple's bought the lot. LCD <i>and</i> OLED suggests either multiple models or a twin-screen Apple iSlate, with the former much more likely than the latter.<br />
It's likely that TG Daily has been misinformed, however: Ars Technica spoke to the OLED Association and <a href="http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2010/01/january-launch-of-10-inch-amoled-apple-tablet-near-impossible.ars">discovered</a> that "there's no real production of 10.1-inch panels" for anyone to hoard.<br />
<b>9. The Apple</b> <b>iSlate will cost around $1,000 and sell squillions</b><br />
The <i>WSJ </i>says that the Apple iSlate will cost around $1,000, which sounds about right: that's one and a bit iPhone 3GSes. Even at that price, <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE5B83RJ20091209">Reuters reckons</a> it's going to sell shedloads. <br />
If the <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/jan/20/apple-tablet-reader-launch">Guardian is correct</a>, mobile phone firms may subsidise that price - although of course that means committing to a two-year contract when it's entirely possible the second generation tablet will ship next summer.<br />
Ultimately, though, there's only one thing you need to know about the tablet: Steve Jobs is "extremely happy" with it. If it's good enough for Jobs, we're sure it's good enough for us.Adityahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03292855813039330079noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181974374389669652.post-28182299511604992742010-01-20T05:16:00.000-08:002010-01-20T05:30:33.083-08:0010 gadgets to help you get a better night's sleep<div id="articleEmbed"> <div id="imagegallery_imageGalleryHolder" class="imageGallery"> <div id="imagegallery_imageHolder" class="imageHolder"> <a href="javascript:zoom('/images/zoom/the-new-axbo-alarm-clock-promises-to-wake-you-up-at-the-optimal-time-in-the-morning-664336');" id="imagegallery_zoomButton"><img src="http://cdn.mos.techradar.com//classifications/images/aXboSingleFront%20%282%29-218-85.jpg" alt="the-new-axbo-alarm-clock-promises-to-wake-you-up-at-the-optimal-time-in-the-morning" /></a> </div> <div class="keyGrey"> <div class="tl"> <div class="tr"> <div class="br"> <div class="bl"> <div class="content"> <div class="imageInfo tiny"> <p id="imagegallery_imageCaption" class="imageCaption black">The new aXbo alarm clock promises to wake you up at the optimal time in the morning</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ rigImage('http://cdn.mos.techradar.com//classifications/images/aXboSingleFront%20(2)-218-85.jpg', '/images/zoom/the-new-axbo-alarm-clock-promises-to-wake-you-up-at-the-optimal-time-in-the-morning-664336', 'the-new-axbo-alarm-clock-promises-to-wake-you-up-at-the-optimal-time-in-the-morning', 'The new aXbo alarm clock promises to wake you up at the optimal time in the morning', '', 'imagegallery_1'); /* ]]> */ </script> </div> <div class="articleBody"> <p>We spend almost a third of our life sleeping. Yet millions of us suffer from poor sleep and never learn how to manage and control our sleeping patterns properly. </p><p>Do you snore so badly that your partner has been known to physically attack you in your grumbling slumber? If so, there are hundreds of well-worn natural remedies and homeopathic hacks to ensure a better night's rest.</p><p>However, if you have tried all of that, if you've drank plenty of water throughout the day and taken no stimulants after 6pm and not looked at the internet or email for at least three or four hours before bed and have done everything else you can to make your brain and body relax throughout the evening and yet you <em>still </em>feel tired, then it might be time to look for some technological fixes to your sleepless woes.</p><p>As every professional sleep clinician will inform you, the key to getting regular good sleep is regular exercise, good diet and learning to manage stress and be able to 'switch off' at night. This can be particularly difficult for technophiles, what with the proliferation of online-connected smartphones and gadgets around us at all times. But if you can switch your attention from surfing the net and checking your emails obsessively to playing around with some of the following gadgets and new bits of sleep-improving tech, you may find some improvements to your day-to-day emotional and physical well-being and overall productivity. </p><p><strong>1.The aXbo alarm clock</strong></p><p>The new alarm clock from German company aXbo is a clock which offers the perfect solution to securing the most productive sleep pattern your body is capable of - by telling you <em>exactly </em>the right time to drag your sorry carcass out of your pit, to ensure that you have had the best possible night's kip in line with your sleep pattern.</p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/axbo_front_72dpi-420-90.jpg" alt="Axbo" width="420" /><em><strong><br /></strong></em></p><p><em>The new aXbo clock could well help you and your partner wake-up more effectively</em></p><p>We've tested out the <a href="http://www.techradar.com/news/world-of-tech/new-alarm-clock-wakes-you-at-your-optimal-time-638813">aXbo clock</a> and it could well be the ultimate sleep hack, as it does actually appear to help you feel better in the mornings, measuring your sleep pattern via wrist sweatbands and waking you and your partner up at the optimal point in the sleep phase as close as possible to your set alarm times. </p><p>Just don't think you can hit snooze! Costs £180 for the couples' version over at <a href="http://www.axbo.com/axbo/CMS/CMS.aspx?ClientID=wf13a3f5ff-010e-4607-ad4b-8814b985c062&SiteID=0&GroupID=11&Status=328EA79CA4B0A3&Language=E">www.axbo.com</a> </p><p><strong>2.The SleepTrek3 </strong></p><p>For those poor souls who really have suffered years of abnormal sleeping patterns the latest medical kit is the <em>SleepTrek3</em> which is able to identify the <em>exact </em>reasons why you have a problem, measuring your airflow, snoring, respiratory effort, body position, oxygen saturation, and pulse rate.</p><p>"SleepTrek3 will make the benefit of sleep study available to many people who would otherwise not have been studied because they would not have met the high criteria to receive a doctor's order for a full-study in a sleep lab," says Everett Pizzuti, President and COO of Astro-Med, Inc. </p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/sleeptrek-420-90.jpg" alt="SleepTrek3" width="420" /><strong><em><br /></em></strong></p><p><em>SleepTrek3 is perhaps the ultimate medical sleep tracking device</em></p><p>Yet while SleepTrek3, supplied with sensors, wearable pouch, home carry case, and rechargeable battery, may well seem to be the ultimate solution to your sleepless woes, there is a catch. It carries a list price of just under $4000 (£2450)!</p><p>Still want one?! You can see videos and more detailing how the SleepTrek3 actually works over on the <a href="http://www.grasstechnologies.com/products/clinsystems/sleeptrek3.html">manufacturer's website</a>. </p><p><strong>3. iPhone sleep cycle alarm clock</strong></p><p>There are hundreds of alarm clocks and sleep aid apps available for iPhone. The only real difficulty is finding one that works for you. </p><p>Lexware Labs' <a href="http://www.lexwarelabs.com/sleepcycle/">Sleep Cycle alarm clock</a> does something very similar to the aforementioned aXbo alarm clock, but this time it measures your sleep cycles via the accelerometer in your iPhone to monitor your movement and thus know which sleep phase you are in. </p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/Lexware%20sleepcycle%201-168-100.jpg" alt="Lexware app" /><em><strong><br /></strong></em></p><p><em>Pop your iPhone under the sheets to use Lexware's latest Sleep Cycle alarm app</em></p><p>"This isn't really something new. These so called bio-alarm clocks have been around for years and work very well, but they usually come with a hefty $200 price tag," says Maciek Drejak, the programmer behind the application. </p><p>This 59p app could well be a god-send for UK iPhone users. For <a href="http://www.lexwarelabs.com/sleepcycle/support">more</a> info check Lexware's website.</p><p><strong>4. OnlineClock.net video alarm clock</strong></p><p>OnlineClock.net has recently released its new Online Video Alarm Clock, the latest version one of the most popular online wake-up tools, which lets you select YouTube videos as an alarm in your web browser. </p><p>Simply enter an (embeddable) YouTube video URL in the <a href="http://onlineclock.net/video/">OnlineClock.net website</a> to select a video alarm. Or use the Video Alarm Clock Bookmarklet.</p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/Onlineclock2-420-90.jpg" alt="online vidclock" width="420" /><em><br /></em></p><p><em>Online Video Alarm clock lets you wake up to the glories of YouTube!</em></p><p>The Video Alarm Clock is customisable too so users can change the size of the numbers or the colour of the background. And, best of all, it is completely free. Just be sure to select a nice relaxing video and not the latest <em>Rage Against The</em> <em>Machine</em> remix!</p><p><strong>5.iHome iPod docks </strong></p><p>Just as with sleep aids and alarm clock apps, there are scores of iPod docks on the market fitted with alarm clock, internet radio and DAB functions. The problem is which one to opt for to ensure you wake up properly. iHome iPod and iPhone docks have been designed to work with a forthcoming app called iHome+Sleep.</p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/ihome4-420-90.jpg" alt="iHome" width="420" /><strong><em><br /></em></strong></p><p><em>iHome's new iPod and iPhone docks will work in tandem with its new sleep-aid apps</em></p><p>These "app-enhanced" alarms can track sleep patterns and gather data about your sleep habits. They are also fully customisable alarms and offer a number of options for you to integrate them with your favourite online social networks. The <a href="http://www.ihomeintl.com/default.asp?country_id=100021">new iHome iA5</a> will be available by March and will cost $99 (£60) and the accompanying iPhone and iPod touch app will be free.</p><p><strong>6.The Dreamhelmet</strong></p><p>No, this is not something out of a Wim Wenders' Sci Fi epic. The<em> Dreamhelmet</em> has been designed specifically for sleep-deprived business travellers and for long-distance drivers as a short-term fix to a major problem on the roads. The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates there are 100,000 sleep-related crashes per year in the USA and that an estimated 32 million Americans actually fell asleep behind the wheel over the last year.</p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/dreamhelmetcamo-234-100.jpg" alt="Dreamhelmet" /><em><strong><br /></strong></em></p><p><em>You might look insane, but the Dreamhelmet is a godsend for truckers and travellers</em></p><p>This combination sleep-mask and sound blocking pillow is a patented sensory deprivation device and, while it may look rather bizarre, if it can help prevent accidents due to lorry drivers dozing off at the wheel, we are all for it. The <em>Dreamhelmet</em> even has two secret 'HiPockets' to hide car keys, credit cards, money, or matches. </p><p>It will set you back $30 (a shade over £18) plus shipping costs from the US.

Instead of the blaring blast of the traditional alarm clock, the <a href="http://www.oregonscientific.com/eng">Oregon Scientific</a> i.Wakeup Sunrise Clock attempts to simulates the dawn in your room, using light to help you wake up in a natural and slightly more gradual way. </p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/iwakeup%20alarm-314-100.jpg" alt="Oregon clock" /><em><strong><br /></strong></em></p><p><em>Oregon's latest glowing i.Wakeup Sunrise alarm clock </em></p><p>The device will start to increase its illumination half an hour before your designated wake up time. It also offers five5 different built-in nature sounds, or a bog-standard FM radio. The <a href="http://www.oregonscientific.com/eng/">i.Wakeup Sunrise</a> Alarm is launching in February 2010 at a cost of $130 (£79.60).</p><p><strong>8.The Philips Wake-Up Light range</strong></p><p>From £50 upwards, Philips' Wake-Up range offers what is perhaps the most cost-effective solution to the problem of how best to ease yourself into the day, featuring a soft, gently glowing light and soothing bird noise or wind chime sound effects to raise you from your sleep.</p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/Philips%20wake-up%20light%20with%20iPod%20dock-420-90.jpg" alt="Philips" width="420" /><strong><em><br /></em></strong></p><p><em>Philips adds an iPod and iPhone dock to its popular Wake-Up Light alarm clock range</em></p><p>As the lamp gets brighter (and the birds sing louder) you slowly slip back into daytime consciousness. More recently, Philips is launching a <a href="http://www.consumer.philips.com/c/alarm-clock/dock-for-iphone-ipod-hf3490_60/prd/us/">Wake-Up Light with Dock for iPod</a> that lets you rise to not only soft light, but your favourite tunes. </p><p>The Philips Wake-Up with iPod and Dock retails for $200 (£122) in the US with Philips UK sending over details on release plans and UK costs shortly.</p><p><strong>9.The Apnex System – banish snoring for ever!</strong></p><p>The Apnex System is a new tech that is still under development in medical labs. It is designed to help problem snorers (and their spouses) solve their sleep apnea problems once and for all. </p><p>However, this is no mere magic bedside gadget. It is a tiny box about the size of a matchbox that is implanted in the chest that stimulates the muscles responsible for keeping the airways open during sleep. </p><p><img src="http://mos.futurenet.com/techradar/classifications/gadgets/sleeptech/Apnex%20system%20-%20Internal-420-90.jpg" alt="The apnex" width="420" /><strong><em><br /></em></strong></p><p><em>Apnex is developing new tech to help snorers (and their partners) sleep again</em></p><p>Chronic sleep apnea affects three million Britons, so this latest medical tech could well improve the health of the nation no end when it hits the market sometime soon.

Pop it on half an hour before bedtime and start to learn how to train your body to relax and sleep.</p><p>Dreamate claims that its device calms the body, lowers stress levels, and induces sleep. Beats getting addicted to sleeping pills!

There will be an event held on Tuesday which will showcase the new firmware along with its new features and capabilities.

But recently I came across a faceless watch which looks like just a metal bracelet. There are no dials or digital screens on this watch but apparently it still tells time.<br /><span id="more-907"></span><br />Basically there are LEDs embedded in the bracelet. Press a button and the LEDs light up to show the time. Looking at the picture it doesn’t look like its that easy to read the time as the LED color isn’t contrasting against the metallic bracelet. It certainly looks like an interesting concept for those who don’t like to wear watches but still into jewelery. The product page of this watch doesn’t have any information on the price and shipment date and is still labeled as “coming soon”!Adityahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03292855813039330079noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181974374389669652.post-11685526360987716312010-01-04T03:06:00.000-08:002010-01-04T03:12:59.138-08:00No-Hands Reading Valet<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBnQVS6qCnNGYeu84yQf1VtL5jNRaIRL2ukVtV-kDJoA7G0Z-ukapIDt8wqAcIWkD7cUeprQc34Fg2ECfj3uiUJSp__lpOMhnfPF9MS7XzRy3IsKex7FHbJw6xrrSpbZlI7MkWy2kzXJdW/s1600-h/olympus-e-30-slr-300x300.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBnQVS6qCnNGYeu84yQf1VtL5jNRaIRL2ukVtV-kDJoA7G0Z-ukapIDt8wqAcIWkD7cUeprQc34Fg2ECfj3uiUJSp__lpOMhnfPF9MS7XzRy3IsKex7FHbJw6xrrSpbZlI7MkWy2kzXJdW/s320/olympus-e-30-slr-300x300.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422840819151927010" border="0" /></a>“Look Ma!

It’s named the ‘Like A Spoon’ Mouse (I’m sure it sounds better in Japanese), and as you can see, is a sleek little wireless number. It runs off a single AAA battery and weights on 115g, and <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Connects</span> to your computer via a very discreet USB knob.</p><p><span id="more-23354"></span></p><p>In my opinion, if the color scheme was different, this could almost be passed off as an Apple product. Oh wait, they tried that, if you remember the dreadful ‘hockey puck’ mice that came with the original iMacs . Still, I think the overly simple white design could be bundled in with an iMac and nobody would notice the difference.</p><p>At any rate, this little beauty retails for ¥8,000 in Japan, which comes out to $90, which is a bit steep for a mouse. Engadget doesn’t seem to think this thing will make it anywhere else, but if you are the adventurous type who makes trips to Japan, you could score this thing and be the envy of all your friends.</p><div id="TixyyLink" style="border: medium none ; overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;"><br /></div>Adityahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03292855813039330079noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181974374389669652.post-52353281126943823502010-01-04T02:38:00.000-08:002010-01-04T02:40:25.525-08:00Remo offers Bluetooth-controlled robot with nightmarish face<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcxWbSzAlqPMvnpDb-8mTS3WaZPb6cpNY_Mlz09mlFbYeUYYJZKXoEi17OmBFrDQSrywlVYVlt6JIgjr4v5njofzJ_YvYZlPmT4MQy8xpTWh0fOtNIiQ0pjHyq-sDUUSQXuw_T4pcNQJ6P/s1600-h/olympus-e-30-slr-300x300.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 209px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcxWbSzAlqPMvnpDb-8mTS3WaZPb6cpNY_Mlz09mlFbYeUYYJZKXoEi17OmBFrDQSrywlVYVlt6JIgjr4v5njofzJ_YvYZlPmT4MQy8xpTWh0fOtNIiQ0pjHyq-sDUUSQXuw_T4pcNQJ6P/s320/olympus-e-30-slr-300x300.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422832413271137586" border="0" /></a>As commercial <a href="http://gadgetsbase.blogspot.com/">robotics</a> improve, robot kits are also reaching new levels of sophistication.
