| GeoPalz – Finally, Tech That Gets Kids Off the Couch Posted: 06 Feb 2011 06:00 PM PST
I have an eight year old that wants nothing more than to run around outside all day. She has known her way around a computer since she was two, but outside is where she wants to be. To hear it be told, I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. Parents are sick of seeing their kids on the couch. Welcome GeoPalz, In the original version GeoPalz is basically a pedometer that tracks the users steps throughout the day. The steps are then logged onto the GeoPalz website under their profile. I guess in order to wean kids even further off the computer, newer versions will include activity trackers that will not require manual logins. At the end of each day your kid logs their steps into the GeoPalz website and the steps are counted as miles/points that can be redeemed for all sorts of real prizes that will be shipped to your house and award certificates that can be printed and hung on a wall. Eventually, the website will be able to send parents updates on their kids progress, by letting them know how far the kid walked, it will include graphs and charts letting you know if it was more or less than average. Also in the future the company looks to offer location based prizes from merchants in your families local area. Like I said, I'm one of the lucky ones, although we should probably still get one that I could wear, and the reports can get sent to my kid… I'm pretty darn fond of our couch. Available for around $20.00 from www.amazon.com Source: wwwgeopalz.com  Cool Gift Idea: Digital Picture Frames, check out our reviews.

| Telephone Consultation Recorder Posted: 06 Feb 2011 05:43 PM PST
The recorder will issue a clearly audible beep to make sure both parties are aware that their conversation is being recorded. It must be plugged into your phone via the included splitter cable before it can kick into action, while its sensitive internal microphone will capture every detail of a consultation. With dual automatic gain control and adjustable recording levels, you will get superior sound quality. All consultations will be saved in the MP3 file format onto any SD memory card (up to 32GB in capacity), and to get an idea on how long that is, a 4GB SD memory card can already hold up to 40 hours of conversation. Fancy spending $159.95 on this? Cool Gift Idea: Digital Picture Frames, check out our reviews. [ Telephone Consultation Recorder copyright by Coolest Gadgets ] Related Posts:

| Core 3000 chassis for DIY enthusiasts Posted: 06 Feb 2011 05:21 PM PST
Yes, the type of processor, memory, storage space solution are all extremely important, but do remember that piecing all of those into a suitable casing/chassis is also equally important. This is where the Core 3000 comes in, as this puppy will be able to offer a whole bunch of cooling options to make sure everything inside runs fine and dandy even when you crank it up. Boasting up to 7 fans of various sizes which can be installed, you might be surprised to find the inside run relatively cool compared to other similar configurations in a different chassis. The front panel itself is easily removable and will come pre-fitted with fan filters, making sure your interior is dust free. As for its sleek black interior, it is matched and contrasted with white expansion slots and hard drive trays. Just like its Define Series, all the hard drive trays will be fitted with anti-vibration silicon grommets, while the upper hard drive cage is both removable and rotatable, making sure it will play nice with even the longest graphic cards. For a full list of features and specifications, they’re listed below.
Not too sure how much this will cost though as at press time. Coolest Gadgets UK – For all your UK centric tech and gadget news. [ Core 3000 chassis for DIY enthusiasts copyright by Coolest Gadgets ] Related Posts:

| Mitsubishi rolls out curved OLED display Posted: 06 Feb 2011 05:19 PM PST
Having a radius of 917.15mm with a pixel pitch of 3mm, this display sports a resolution of 1920 x 256mm. According to Mitsubishi, this is a prototype at the moment, but they obviously want to introduce it to the mass market within a few months’ time. One advantage that this OLED display has over the other regular LCDs would be boasting of a far higher than your regular LCD display by up to 2 times, making it suitable for high ambient light areas including shopping malls and passenger terminals. With an 80-degree viewing angle, regardless of whether it is horizontal or vertical, you can be sure that when this arrives, it will definitely wow ordinary folks like you and I, while costing us a pretty penny at the same time.

| GM’s EN-V Concept Car – Home, James! Posted: 06 Feb 2011 04:01 PM PST
I get in a car these days and I'm amazed that I actually get where I'm going without getting killed, or at least seriously maimed. There are simply too many people on the road. Sometimes while stuck in traffic I remember the Jetsons, you know, the cartoon about the space age family, they had cars that drove themselves, well, they could fly too, but thats besides the point. GM has introduced an amazing concept that I always dreamed would someday exist on our streets, the EN-V. By combining a Global Positioning System (GPS) with specialized vehicle-to-vehicle communications and distance-sensing technology, the EN-V concept can be driven manually or, get this… it can drive itself. Its operating systems offer the hope of reducing traffic congestion by allowing the EN-V to select the fastest route based on real-time traffic data. My husband tries to do that, but it never works out that well. The concept also utilizes wireless communications to enable a "social network" that can be used by drivers and passengers to communicate with friends or business associates while on the move. The ability the EN-V has to "talk" to other vehicles could also reduce the number of vehicle accidents and using vehicle-based sensors and cameras the EN-V can see what's around it, which allows the vehicle to react quickly to obstacles or changes in driving conditions, so if a child chases a ball out into the street and in front of your car, the EN-V will slow down and stop a lot sooner than today's vehicles. Because EN-V is so much smaller and has greater maneuverability you can fit about five of these babies in any single normal size space, so it will be a lot easier to find a parking spot. Amen to that, bring on the future. Source: www.inhabitat.com Tech Cult – We cover the latest tech news, but always with a funny twist.

Do you tend to forget what has been spoken to you over the phone, especially when it involves capturing medical instructions, legal processes, and financial advice? Then the 
There is nothing quite like the feeling of building your own computer from scratch – of course, we aren’t referring to you churning up everything from its components to the nitty gritty, but getting all the essential parts from a reputable store and piecing everything else together in your garage (or room, whichever you’re more comfortable with).
