The Immobilizer Phone – Don’t Take That Call! Posted: 31 Jan 2012 09:05 AM PST You know the feeling of leaving a store late at night, and walking out into a dark parking lot? While you don’t actually believe that anything is going to happen, you breathe just a little faster knowing that it could. I know I always like to hold my keys in between my fingers thinking I could hurt someone with them, but holding 5 million volt stun gun that looks like a cell phone, well, that could give me an almost unfair advantage over a would be attacker! Imagine being able to catch a criminal totally off guard with the Cell Phone Stun Gun from Security Products in Disguise. With the look and feel of an actual cell phone, complete with a full color display, this stun gun is obviously very easy to carry and easy to use. With up to 5 million volts of electricity, this Stun Gun will effectively short-circuit the attacker’s nervous system, and allow you to get away. The stun gun is designed to work as long as you make contact with the attacker’s body–and sends more than enough charge to work through the persons clothing. The Cell Phone Stun Gun operates with a rechargeable battery and is easy to charge up anywhere with a wall plug-in feature. The stun gun is additionally equipped with flashlight and of course it has a safety switch to prevent accidental firing. Hello Mom? ZZZZZZZZZ ouch! Anyhow, you can carry the Cell Phone stun gun with the assurance that you’ll have protection if you need it, yet it certainly wont draw the attention of a regular stun gun and it will definitely be more protection than my keys ever were… *Of course it’s not available everywhere, and in some places you’re not even allowed to carry it, but it would make me happy to be able to send my kid off to college with it… Source: Immobilizer Cell Phone Stun Gun Conference Calendar – The global conference and expo finder.

Tobii’s Lenovo Laptop – Keep your Eye on it! Posted: 31 Jan 2012 08:20 AM PST I am a firm believer in the less is more theory, but I probably dont mean it like you think. I believe that the less I HAVE to do the MORE time I have to do all the other stuff I want… I really enjoy gadgets that do things for me. I am waiting in breathless anticipation for the washing machine that will iron my clothes and a self cleaning refrigerator. Yup, my favorite gadgets are those that help me do less, and now that Tobii Technology has teamed up with Lenovo and come up with a laptop that doesnt require you to use a mouse – or a keyboard, well, lets just say the future looks bright. To use the Lenovo laptop you just need your eyes. The process seems relatively user friendly, you simply sit in front of it and after a thirty second calibration test that consists primarily of following several dots around with your eyes you're done, and the laptop will go through the paces that your peepers suggest, look at an icon,voila! information about that icon. If you are reading, the text scrolls as needed. It's an unencumbered way to interact with your laptop, and one that could be ready for consumer applications in as little as 2 or 3 years. Tobii’s new method of input and its accompanying software can be used in any number of ways, from taking over cursor control from the mouse, letting you move the cursor with your eyes to tracking gaze points, where gazing at an image for a few seconds brings it to the forefront and in a slideshow format, you can pan through images by looking from right to left. How very Mission Impossible! While it might be a while before we can actually get our hands on technology like this, it sure sounds like fun, how practical will it be? That remains to be seen… I do see some amazing gaming possibilites and some strong usefullness to differently abled folks who might not otherwise be able to use a keyboard. I dont know why I’m so impressed, I can get my 8 year old to do almost anything just by the way I look at her… Source: www.tobii.com Cool Gift Idea: Digital Picture Frames, check out our reviews.

Panasonic Lumix TS20 rugged digital camera Posted: 31 Jan 2012 05:30 AM PST For those of you out there who tend to be a little bit careless with your belongings, no matter how expensive they are, then it would always be better to pick up something which is cheap instead of gunning for an expensive make or model all the time. After all, it is rather difficult to predict just when you are going to be at your butterfingers best – which is why Panasonic figured out the consumer digital camera market has a need for the Panasonic Lumix TS20 rugged digital camera. This entry-level shooter is not only shockproof and dustproof, it is also waterproof, so that you can continue to shoot photos with this puppy even when it pours outside, or should you want to go snorkelling and take underwater shots, the Lumix TS20 would also deliver results just as well. The design itself gives the game away, being angled in nature instead of boasting all the curves that you would normally expect from standard consumer electronics devices these days, making it look tough from the get go already. Touted to be waterproof to approximately 16 feet (5 meters), shockproof to approximately 5 feet (1.5 meters), dustproof and freezeproof to temperatures as low as 14 degrees F, you can throw just about anything out of the ordinary at the Lumix TS20, and this 16.1-megapixel shooter will still continue to function without missing a beat. It boasts of a flat and slim profile that has a 25mm ultra-wide-angle lens and a 4x optical zoom, and even better news is the Lumix TS20′s zoom can extend to 8x equivalent with the Intelligent Zoom function, where everything is made possible courtesy of Panasonic’s Intelligent Resolution technology. Want to shoot in High Definition? No problem, as the Lumix TS20 does just that at 720p in the MP4 format, and 4x optical zoom is also made available to you during video recording. I would not go out of the way to test the Lumix TS20 to its limits though, but everyday use with some knocks here and there should not be an issue.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS20 is slimmest digital camera with 20x optical zoom lens Posted: 31 Jan 2012 05:00 AM PST Superlatives are often used to describe a particular product or device in order to have it stand out from the rest of the crowd – and the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS20 is one of them, where the Japanese manufacturer has proudly proclaimed this as “the world’s slimmest digital camera with a 20x optical zoom lens” – measuring a mere 1.1″ thin compared to its rivals in the market. The Lumix ZX20 will tote around a powerful zoom, a 24mm ultra wide-angle LEICA DC VARIO-ELMAR lens and the ability to shoot full-High Definition (HD), making it a formidable choice if you are in the market and on the lookout for a spanking new digital camera. The reason it can be this slim is due to the newly-redesigned lens system, where the Lumix ZS20 will carry a new mechanical structure and optical system that is said to further improve image quality as well as getting the help of Nano Surface Coating technology. More on the camera right after the jump. Another feature that you might find interesting would be the built-in GPS functionality, hence making life far easier for you to pinpoint the various locations where you shot those photos earlier, sharing them with family and friends on an Internet map. Additionally, you can also install map data onto the Lumix ZS20 thanks to the included DVD, enabling the camera to enjoy detailed worldwide maps of major regions on a scale of 1/25,000 or more precise. All map data of a designated city can be copied over to an SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card for quick geographic information access. Other hardware specifications include a 14.1-megapixel sensor, their advanced image processor known as the Venus Engine, Full HD video recording capability at 1,920 x 1,080 resolution, a powerful 20x optical zoom with 2-step Zoom function, an Auto Wind Cut function which reduces wind background noise whenever you record a video to makr voices clearer, while mechanical noise that is caused by zooming remains suppressed to improve overall video sound quality. Manual control options has also been thrown into the mix, letting you adjust shutter speed and aperture, and 3D Photo Mode, meaning the Lumix ZS20 is able to offer a range of special effects which definitely add far more fun to a photography session. You can opt to control the camera with physical buttons or through its 3″ Smart Touch LCD Screen, while charging up the ZS20 is a snap thanks to USB charging or conventional AC adapter charging methods.Expect to pick this puppy up in March for $350 each.

Posted: 31 Jan 2012 04:30 AM PST If you have stayed in London for some years, you would know that carrying around an umbrella is always a good idea – as well as for those living in tropical countries, as the umbrella not only keeps the glare and heat off from your skin, it also makes sure you remain somewhat dry to a certain extent should the heavens decide to feel extra generous and pour out its abundant “blessings” onto the masses down here. Well, if you are going to tote an umbrella around, you might as well make the most of it with the £19.99 Color Changing Umbrella. The name of this umbrella gives the game away, where this rather compact device will feature a white raindrop pattern located around the canopy, making it more than enough to be an attraction the moment you lay your eyes on it, and should it come into contact with water, the white drops will suddenly bloom into a full spectrum of colors as though an invisible fairy flitted past and sprinkled some magic dust on it. The design will revert to white when all is dry, changing color only when it is wet. This is made possible thanks to a layer of white hydro-chromatic ink coated across, although I am not quite sure just how long this special coating can last.

Posted: 31 Jan 2012 04:00 AM PST The famous 5.25″ floppy – single-sided or double-sided, sir? Imagine swapping such disks when playing games, and installation proved to be a pain when you have seven, nay, eight of these floppies to go through. 3.5″ floppies were far sturdier and less prone to damage, so why not usher in a modern interpretation of a retro device? The £26.99 USB Floppy Disk Drive is as what it says – all you need to do is plug this into any available USB port, and it is capable of transferring all 1.44MB of data on a 3.5″ floppy disk over to your computer. Pretty pointless actually, and in this day and age, probably the only things you can carry around on the floppy would be a couple of sized down images and perhaps a text file or two. If you are one who basks in nostalgia, and would love to hear the sounds that come from a floppy disk drive of old being read, then this is it. Otherwise, it would still make for a great conversation starter, and there is even the classic LED which lights up when plugged in to indicate power, read and write activity.
