Toshiba libretto® W100 Dual-Screen Laptop PC.
Sometime back when the ipad popped out from Apple’s stable, I kind of wished something like this was offered by Apple instead of the current ipad. I think the ipad is beautiful but it’s just not really a useful device.
The Liberto “looks like” it has its basics correct. There are [...]

Powercup Inverter

Posted on Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010 in Gadget with tags .

An amazing product, well actually a simple product but in a very sensible shape. In almost all cars the cup holder is right next to the power socket and what best place to have a USB and AC converter than the cup holder itself.

Running out of power is a thing of the past with the AC Anywhere. Simply plug the unit into any 12-volt DC vehicle cigarette lighter socket and the AC Anywhere converts your vehicle’s battery power to 230 volts AC (common household current.) The AC Anywhere is perfect for [...]

Today, in the fast developing craze over ipad and earlier over iPhone, we have somehow forgotten Apple’s first try at building a hand held computing device that did not do so well in the market. It did have a host of features including a fully functional hand writing recognition which was fairly good by existing [...]

Step 1: Gather your required tools.

You will need a good set of screwdrivers with the required sizes of Allen Keys. It’s probably the smallest available with any set. Check the back of the keyboard to confirm the size.
You will need a household glass and equipment cleaner.
A soft cotton cloth, preferably white. Colored cloth can leak [...]

A tribute to the Walkman

Posted on Saturday, April 3rd, 2010 in Gadget Thoughts with tags .

Sony Walkman, the original “Personal Media Player” is probably outdated today and the brand re-targeted and populated with MP3 players and phones, but it was this machine, a small mechanical wonder that was one of the first to allow users to carry their music almost everywhere. And tapes had their advantages too over MP3 files.

First [...]

Belkin In Desk iPod Grommet

Belkin In Desk iPod Grommet
Now that makes perfect sense. I have one that dangles around everywhere all the time. Not to mention the battalion of wires that march out from it and into the PC / Stereo etc.
Here’s what the manufacturers say.
What’s special about this iPod® Dock?

Provides a safe docking station for your iPod® while [...]

Puma – The Puma Phone

Pumaphone
Somebody had to do this. And the fact that it’s this sporty and has a bright interface (and not a geeky droidy thing) is a plus. There are website talking about how viable is the solar option and when do I leave it out to dry.. errr.. charge. Well, the fact that this comes with [...]

Notion Ink’s Adam

Notion Ink Adam hands-on via Notion Ink Adam hands-on – SlashGear.
Here’s another Tablet in the market, hitting it a wee bit before the ipad, sometime in December 2008.
Since it’s a prototype the Adam’s casing here is not what the final design will be; in fact this was hand-made especially for showing the tablet at CES. The [...]

Why Apple leaves out Car Audio?

Posted on Saturday, February 6th, 2010 in Gadget Technology Thoughts with tags .

This is not a rumor or a hoax, this is just a suggestion.
We all know that iPod is probably one of the most used devices in the car in conjunction with other devices that already exist. But why doesn’t Apple get into the market directly and give us front row right from the driver’s seat [...]

I have an internet enabled phone, which I use primarily to talk (90%), text (8%), click images of vague animals and impromptu kid actions (2%). I did try using it to receive my emails, at least read through them or reply back but the lack of screen space is just a killer.
That’s how this thought [...]

concept Grid with Tablets

Posted on Thursday, February 4th, 2010 in Gadget Patent Pending Technology with tags .

Carrying forward from my earlier post here, we can create Tablets that not only help in personal computing and handheld computing, but also extend visually and physically. Something thats a physical Grid as well as a computing Grid.
The idea maybe a little over the top, but things should aim at heading this way.

Why me no iPad

Posted on Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010 in Gadget Technology with tags .

Apple – iPad – The best way to experience the web, email, and photos.
Well this might be a little too early to say as I may give in to the looks and the design of the ipad sometime soon as soon as its stable and available in India, but I still have my doubts over [...]
