R2-D2 Vacuum Cleaner

Posted: 25 Sep 2010 05:20 PM PDT

They say that a picture speaks a thousand words, and what you see on the right hand side is just about right. We’re looking at what looks like everybody’s favorite astromech droid at first glance, the venerable R2-D2. Well, upon closer inspection, you might notice that Artoo (as he is affectionately called) has a vacuum cleaner attachment connected – what does it all mean? The answer is pretty simple as it is obvious, Agent Spiff’s imagination has come up with a vacuum cleaner which has been modified so thoroughly on the outside, it looks as though the real R2-D2 is standing there right in front of you. Of course, this is but a Photoshop job, but imagine the possibilities of an Electrolux Artoo. After all, if you have a R2-D2 Droid Edition for a smartphone, why not a vacuum?

Smart Sizzors aims to be a hit in your home

Posted: 25 Sep 2010 05:12 PM PDT

There is nothing quite like a pair of good scissors at home ready to pounce upon any cutting action when the need arises, don’t you think so? Well, the Smart Sizzors is one £9.95 purchase that you would probably find useful to have around, since it is somewhat akin to Superman – the Man of Steel. This multi-purpose steel scissors is equipped with hardened, razor-sharp blades that is able to slice through even tough materials like hot knife through butter, not to mention other multi-purpose uses such as crushing garlic, stripping wire and opening bottles among others. Boasting comfortable soft grip handles, it will play nice with both left or right-handed users while an adjustable tension bolt enables you to tighten them up if they ever work loose. If MacGuyver had a pair of scissors, this would be it.

Death Star Planterium lets you look into the Star Wars galaxy

Posted: 24 Sep 2010 06:15 PM PDT

The mind of a child is a truly wondrous thing, or something in the same vein was muttered by Master Yoda back in Attack of the Clones when Obi-Wan was trying to locate the Kamino system in the Jedi archives. Well, you can let your imagination run free and child-like with the Death Star Planterium, a device that is capable of turning your dark room into that of the Star Wars galaxy, now how about that? To make matters more interesting, this tabletop planetarium itself resembles that of the Death Star, hence its name. It can not only project the Star Wars galaxy and planet names, it also has a much more down-to-earth (pardon the pun) feature in the form of projecting the Earth’s night sky as well. Good to know it comes with a fun and informative learning guide to make the toy all the more interesting. The Death Star Planterium is powered by a trio of AA batteries, where you can bring one home for the kids for $27.99.

Heat Changing TARDIS Mug

Posted: 24 Sep 2010 06:00 PM PDT

It seems that the next big thing when it comes to mugs these days would be for the ability of such mugs to change their color or pattern whenever some hot beverage is poured within. Not wanting to be left behind the times (Dr.Who has always been pretty forward looking after all), the Heat Changing TARDIS Mug will show the TARDIS sitting calmly in London – at least until you decide to pour in hot liquids. London will then disappear, where the TARDIS is suddenly seen as floating in outer space, now how about that? Each mug can hold up to 12 ounces of your favorite beverage, letting you drink to your very own (literally) out-of-this-world adventure conjured by your imagination. You can pick this up for $10.99 if you’re interested.

Panasonic Toughbook U1 Ultra is perfectly viewable under sunlight

Posted: 24 Sep 2010 05:45 PM PDT



Are you a real klutz that you have dropped your netbook or notebook for more times than you care to remember? If that is the case, then you might want to check out a more durable device which can withstand such punishment – we’re talking about the Panasonic Toughbook U1 Ultra. What makes Panasonic’s offering so different from the rest? Well, it not only delivers improved sunlight visibility, it also runs off Windows 7 and boasts some pretty decent performance figures for a device in its cass. For its display, the Toughbook U1 Ultra is equipped with a TransflectivePlus display for up to 6000 nit viewability in direct sunlight, while being accompanied by a 64GB solid state drive, 2GB RAM, an Intel Atom Z530 1.6GHz processor and Windows 7 as the operating system of choice. It’s target market? Those who are involved in highly mobile jobs including direct store delivery (DSD), eCitation and vegetation management in markets like supply chain management, public safety and utilities.

Of course, you can also throw in an optional 2-megapixel camera if that is your cup of tea, to hold video conferences and calls with your office mates while you’re on the go. This camera will come with updated software that delivers faster auto focus as well as improved white balancing. Other optional items you can jazz up the U1 Ultra with would be a barcode reader. In terms of usability and navigation enhancements, those will include enlarged screen icons, programmable "right click" onscreen button, a larger soft keyboard, a "zoom and pan" mode that enables users to simply navigate robust content and a soft "Ctrl-Alt-Del" button for log-on access.

Just how tough of a cookie is the Toughbook U1 Ultra? Well, it has been certified by an independent third-party test lab to meet MIL-STD-810G and IP65 standards for environmental conditions. The device itself is full well capable of shrugging off a drop of 6 feet from any angle, while there is a method to its fanless design with the aim of keeping out water and dust while reducing weight and reducing a common point of failure. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 and optional Gobi2000 mobile broadband technology from Qualcomm. Pricing starts from $2,799 upwards, making it tough on your bank account as well.

SunBriteTV delivers 22-inch all-weather outdoor display

Posted: 24 Sep 2010 05:34 PM PDT

For those who run establishments that need a TV outdoors (al fresco dining, anyone?), or for folks who have a really large back yard and want to enjoy their favorite series and movies privately, why not consider what SunBriteTV has to offer? This unique 22-inch all-weather outdoor display was specially concocted to cater for either category, making a splash at CEDIA EXPO 2010. The 2220HD will be available from October 15th onwards for $2,095, and before you go about screaming just how expensive that is for a 22-inch TV, hear us out in the extended post. Do not judge a book by its cover, and in this case, don’t judge a consumer electronics appliance by its price.

According to Lynn Stearn, SunBriteTV’s Vice President of sales and marketing, “Great things do come in smaller packages. Model 2220HD is designed to meet the needs of CEDIA dealers who are looking for multi-room integration for the up-close-and-personal viewing areas, such as the barbecue, for the spa or any other commercial and residential applications with space restrictions.”

The 2220HD model, as you can tell by its name (and mentioned earlier), is a 22-inch 1386 x 768 pixel HD LCD TV. It boasts a corrosion-resistant, powder-coated aluminum exterior that ensures the TV’s sensitive innards will be protected from rain, dirt, insects and other extreme weather conditions. Thanks to the company’s very own Multi-Fan Airflow System, the TV is capable of remaining as cool as a cucumber even in temperatures of up to 122 degrees. Other features include variable fan-speed that is controlled by the TV’s internal thermostat, hence increasing cooling as required while keeping fan noise to a minimum. The TV also has a thermostatically-controlled heater which will activate automatically to prevent condensation from happening, letting you use it safely outdoors in temperatures as low as -24 degrees F.

No full HD though, so you have got to be wary of that just in case you thought that you can now enjoy your favorite Blu-ray movies in 1080p glory. Are you interested in bringing one of these puppies home?
