The Pelican 1075 HardBack Case

Posted: 02 Dec 2011 07:30 AM PST

For those who are looking for some extra protection for the iPad, tablet PC, netbook, or other smaller laptop, then you might want to check out the Pelican 1075 HardBack Cases.

The 1075 model is dustproof, watertight, as well as crushproof. It has been tested for impact and submersion to three feet, and it has an easy-open latch as well as a built-in automatic purge valve to keep water and dust out while balancing air pressure.

It also has a molded liner which is designed to add impact shock protection and not scratch the tablet. There is enough room underneath your device in the 1075 for some accessories like an adapter, cables, or earbuds.

In short, you can afford to put your small PC into a case for “your office on the go”. It even comes with a strap so you can sling it around your shoulder. You don’t have to worry about banging against wall or door with your gear in this box.

I found a lot of models of the Pelican 1075 with foam or computer liner, and the i1075 comes with an iPad Insert. The price is about $59.95 on Amazon, and you might want to look at some similar Hardback cases on the Pelican site like the 1085 and the 1095.

RonI’s MechLift Electric manipulator does heavy lifting

Posted: 02 Dec 2011 07:15 AM PST

Robots. Not only will they eventually take over the world, but they can lift more than us by several hundred pounds. RonI’s MechLift System is just another reminder that I am not in shape, and will never be able to lift as much as this.

The MechLift Electric Manipulator is a giant grappling arm that rides on a set of overhead rails. It has a telescoping aluminum pole with a vertical lift range of over six feet, and it can pick up objects as heavy as 1,400 pounds.

It has a changeable gripping head that is capable of lifting loads like the rolls that you see in the picture, and awkward loads like a giant flat door. Controls are done via joystick, and it looks like there is a screen there too.

You know, I used to work at Wal-Mart stocking shelves. I found that there were loads that were difficult to lift, and I wish I could have a machine carry it for me. I am dreaming of a retail store where on the ceiling is a series of rails, and there are seveal MechLift arms roving around at any given time.

Yeah, that’s where it’s at. Perhaps these robot arms could do the stocking for the big items, and maybe lift the heavy items for the shoppers.

Honda’s Micro Commuter concept car can be controlled with a smartphone

Posted: 02 Dec 2011 07:00 AM PST

I’ve been seeing some nifty concept cars lately, like Toyota’s Fun-Vii. I’m not certain whether or not Honda can beat a car with touchscreen displays on the inside and outside, but the Honda Micro Commuter concept car could be it.

The Honda Micro Commuter does have interchangeable panels that insert in the front and sides that allow users to customize how their cars look with a 2D graphic pattern. Another killer feature is that it allows users to control the car’s various functions remotely via smartphone.

My Source does not reveal what functions are controllable with a smartphone, but I’m guessing that one can’t drive the car from the cell phone. I think James Bond had one of those in Tomorrow Never Dies. What is the legality of a full-sized remote control car?

Just to let you know, this car has a room for three. There is a driver that controls the car with two joystick-like levers, and two passengers can sit in the back. I like how the fenders practically cover the tires, and I love how the tires are white.

Yes, this is a concept car that was revealed this week at the Tokyo Motor Show, and it is probably not going to be hitting the road anytime soon.

House of Marley’s latest collection is eco-friendly

Posted: 02 Dec 2011 05:30 AM PST

I don’t know about you, but many dead celebrities and their estate make a whole lot more money to still live like a king assuming they were still alive, and it does pique my interest when it comes to marketing the dead. The House of Marley is obviously referring to the late Bob Marley, and they intend to deliver their message of peace, love, and unity to Ski Dazzle 2011: The Los Angeles Ski Show and Snowboard Expo, which ends on December 4th.

The House of Marley will deliver the MARLEY Satisfy Your Soul Tour to Ski Dazzle in order to showcase its full range of eco-friendly MARLEY audio gear, where among them will include a sneak preview of spanking new docking stations and speakers. This will happen at the Los Angeles Convention Center, so if you are interested and are in the vicinity during that time, why not drop by?

The House of Marley delivers premium quality, eco-friendly products which are said to embody the Marley family’s values of equality, unity, authenticity, sustainability, and charity. A trio of collections will be on offer – Jammin’, Freedom, and Destiny, and these feature noise isolating in-ear and on-ear headphones, active noise canceling over-ear headphones, docking stations, and portable audio systems.

It depends on just which model you want to pick up, as prices will range from $29.99 to $499.99, delivering superior audio products for “young gongs” to “conscious connoisseurs.” Just in case you have no idea on where to track down the pair of MARLEY headphones that you want – make a bee line for Becker Surf, Karmaloop, CCS, Beachworks, in addition to numerous other other snow, surf and skate shops around the US. The docking stations and speakers will be out from early next year onwards, so forget about them being made available in time for Christmas.

Off The Hook shower head

Posted: 02 Dec 2011 05:00 AM PST

Are you one who talks on the phone the whole day long? Well, if you cannot get enough chat time in your life going, then you might want to consider the Off The Hook shower head that will let you hold imaginary conversations with your boss, your sub-ordinates, your spouse, your cat, it doesn’t matter – at least you will be able to wash away all the dirt and grime from the day’s work, all from a red colored phone. It looks like the traditional handset, and it functions like a standard hand shower complete with a universal fitting. I am not quite sure whether the Mrs. will approve of this gaudy looking device sitting in the bathroom though, so it would be best to consult her beforehand.

Air Table Tennis

Posted: 02 Dec 2011 04:30 AM PST

I know that there are plenty of air guitar maestros out there, where in their own minds, they are able to churn out their own tunes to maximum effect, with the adoring masses being impatient to jump into their pants. Well, here is a little twist on the traditional air guitar, where we are talking about the £24.99 Air Table Tennis. Of course, it will work fine as long as the batteries inside still have juice, and you can, in your mind (as well as your opponent’s) have a session of table tennis that will rival that of what you watched in Forrest Gump.

The Air Table Tennis paddle is capable of reproducing the entire gamut of the sound effects that you will find in a real game, beginning with the satisfying 'tock' from the moment you serve the ball. After it bounces over to the table of your virtual opponent as well as their return shot, you will then have to learn to match the timing of your swing to make a return shot – and hopefully a winning one. I wonder just how many calories one will burn playing with this for an hour.
