Future Golves |
|
How many of us have wished upon a star to be able to control electrical appliances at the snap of our fingers? I am sure we love to be able to take the “point and click” concept to the next level by “point and activate”. This could be the activation method of the future that will replace the all-powerful universal remote control - an electronic glove that is capable of manipulating your home appliances at the snap of your fingers. Researchers at Engineered Fibre Structures (EFS) have worked long and hard to bring us a working prototype of this soft-fabric electronic glove that remotely controls equipment thanks to Blue-tooth connectivity.

Apple TV |
|
After a long wait Apple have revealed their TV product to the waiting gadget world, the big question was is it a simple streaming device or a bold step towards IPTV and video on demand? Previously known as the iTV the new Apple TV unit measures 195.6mm square and 27.9mm deep and is remarkably light to lift.
Inside the ice white and neatly styled case lies a 40gb hard drive, 802.11n WiFi card and more connectors than you can shake a stick at. Apple have designed the Apple TV to be Hi-Def ready from day one so the video chipset used supports 1080i and 720p plus support for 576 PAL resolutions. The Apple TV set top box connects to the TV via either a component video plug or via HDMI for high definition signals, neither cable is supplied in the standard package so make sure you have them already.
We had hoped that the Apple Television would connect directly to the Internet and use our standard WiFi router, we were half right. The AppleTV unit uses WiFi 802.11 which is backwards compatible with the older b/g standards to connect to a home network, of course Apple push their Airport kit like it is the only WiFi which will work but that is just tosh and the TV unit works fine with any standard network. What it does not do is use the internet connection without a PC or Mac, instead it needs to connect via iTunes running on Mac or PC.

Nokia Spy Phone |
|
Calling N95 a cell phone won’t do it any justice. What the Nokia N95 is is actually a mini computer that you can carry with you wherever you go, featuring 3G connectivity as well as an integrated GPS navigation system to keep even the busiest person on track and on time for all the appointments lined up. At $750 a pop, it certainly doesn’t come across as cheap, but what matters is what you get within, right? Spy catcher has lost no time in endowing the already super N95 with an additional feature - its very own interceptor software.
This souped up Nokia N95 Spyphone makes it the most advanced one available on the market at this moment. What the N95 Spy phone does is eavesdrop on the conversation(s) held around it from anywhere in the world. This means you can dial a secret number which only you know, and the N95 Spy phone will pick up whatever that’s going on around it and transfer the signal over to you without the N95 owner knowing any better. Of course, the only way this situation can come to pass is for you to give your “friend” the Nokia N95 as a present.

Features of Epoq |
|
Epoq have crafted a gorgeous little device: just a bit larger than a regular matchbook, the player sports a 2,4″ QVGA LCD, expandable memory (1 or 2 GB onboard and MiniSD card slot) and a processor fast enough to play unconverted AVIs at 25 frames per second.
It’s great how Epoq have managed to squeeze a better feature set than the run-of-the-mill MP3/MP4 players out there in a package that’s only 6,66×50x11 mm small. Believe it or not, it even has an integrated speaker!
What it sports:
· 1 or 2 GB internal flash memory + MiniSD card slot
· Anti-scratch 320×240 LCD
· Rock Chip Processor – allows playing back unconverted AVI videos at 25 fps
· Built-in speaker (for some good old low-fi annoyance)
· FM radio with 40 presets
· Sound/voice recorder
· Image viewer and e-book reader that work in parallel with music playback
· Supported formats: mp1, mp2, mp3, wma, avi, jpg,bmp and txt
The integrate lithium battery can be charged via USB or via an included AC charger in 3-4 hours, and will last for 3 hours of video or 8 of music. All this features are packed in a 66.6×50.3×11 mm-sized casing, available in ‘Gorgeous White Acrylic’ and ‘Chrome’.
It’s available at FirstToYou.com for $99,95 (1GB) or $139,95(2GB).

USB Flash Drive |
|
This is a cool idea, a USB Flash Drive with integrated card reader. The Data-Traveler Reader functions like a regular flash drive but you can also expand it with various memory cards (SD, MMC, SDHC, MMC, microSD, etc.). So not only is the drive expandable you can use it to read your memory cards when your on the move, so that’s one less gadget you’ve got to carry in your gadget bag.

Incredible Watch |
|
This is not your regular wristwatch. The Home Theater Watch was designed to give you the experience of a home theatre with the functionality of a watch. With it you can tell time and watch that movie from the Oscars or that latest Heroes episode anywhere. The screen is only 1.5”, but that’s not so bad, after all this is a watch we’re talking about, and according to Gadget Universe the movies will look the same as they would on your PC.
The 2 GB of built-in memory should be enough to store at least one full-length feature film. Even if watching movies on this miniature screen is not going to be the same as on your Home Theatre setup, this watch could be very practical if you’re always traveling or stuck in traffic jams. Besides being a portable movie player, the watch can also be used to read documents, listen to your favorite MP3 and WMA audio tracks or watch your latest JPEG photos.
You can send the movies you want to your watch from your computer via USB, and the included software can convert your ASF, AVI, MPEG, WMV, DAT/VCD, and ASX files to a format that’s compatible with the watch.
