The Lilypad? – Solar Charging iPad Case, and much much more… Posted: 13 Mar 2012 07:29 AM PDT I have certainly been enjoying my iPad, it makes the wait at the doctors office more pleasant, I use it to check movie times or to send a quick e-mail. I guess about the only thing that would make it perfect is if you didn’t have to be a slave to an electrical outlet. (and maybe Flash) I don’t know how many times I’ve been right in the middle of something and get the dreaded “dismiss” low battery message. Rats! Well, this nifty little outdoor and indoor light powered, self charging, battery backup case provides around 12 to 13 days of iPad use, all without the need for a pesky plug in. The device boasts a laundry list of awesome features including a built in HDMI adaptor allowing you to view iPad content on your TV or, with the use of an HDMI capable projector. The protective case also contains movie and keyboarding stands, both made out of stainless steel and built to last. More impressive features after the jump. The case integrates a special USB-out, that will allow you to charge another USB powered device, like a camera or a Smartphone and finally, a whistle locator feature that lets you beckon your ipad to reveal itself with, of course, a whistle. I’d love to tell you the name of this case extraordinaire, but its not going to be the Lilypadfor long, as the folks over at Apple have politely requested a change. The new name should be announced soon, along with the availability of the actual product. The website tells us that we should be hearing some news this month. Visit lilypadcase.com to see video or to sign up for updates. No definite word on price, best guess? at least $165. Conference Calendar – The global conference and expo finder.

There are five different modes in the Pyramid 4 Person Game Timer, where it will not only provide you with a turn time limit, there is also the ability to add your leftover time to your next turn, and entire game time limit, and a timer that will know just how long you are taking for the entire length of the game, in addition to a turn counter. Someone is going to start charting graphs of their board game experience soon, I believe. Check out the Coolest Gadgets 2008 Gift Guides, Christmas shopping made easy.

Sony α57 DSLR is ready take over the α55 Posted: 13 Mar 2012 05:30 AM PDT
Just what does the innovative Translucent Mirror design offer? For starters, it is capable of directing incoming light to the CMOS image sensor and the AF sensor, both at the same time, so that full-time continuous AF during both still and video shooting will be able to happen. Not only that, users are also able to frame, focus and preview shots in real-time thanks to the high-resolution Tru-Finder electronic viewfinder. This delivers a wide viewing angle and 100% field of view for the end user, so that photographers know that what they see on the screen is exactly what they will capture. The Sony α57 is said to be the natural successor to Sony’s α55 camera, where it is specially positioned to target a wide audience of DSLR users. It is capable of shooting still images at up to 12 frames per second, record your video memories in full HD video at 60p, 60i or 24p frame rates, and also boasts of a wide range of creative modes that include Auto Portrait Framing, a world’s first technology. How about shooting portraits? Well, novice photographers are able to see the quality of their work increase, thanks to the new Auto Portrait Framing, which is a world’s first technology as mentioned earlier. The Sony α57 will rely on face detection and the compositional ‘rule of thirds,’ making sure it knows just where your subject’s position is, trimming the scene in order to create a tightly framed, professional-looking picture – regardless of whether it is in portrait or landscape orientation without sacrificing the original image. It will save both sets of photos so that you can make a comparison after a hard day’s work, letting you refine your portrait skills after that. Expect the new α57 interchangeable lens camera to hit worldwide markets this April with an 18-55mm kit zoom lens for $800, and if you just want to pick up the body only, it will cost you approximately $700.

Neato Robotics XV-21 automatic vacuum cleaner Posted: 13 Mar 2012 05:00 AM PDT
Vacuuming your home is definitely a must, as spending hours with a lint roller is no fun as I can testify to that. Well, Neato Robotics, a Silicon Valley company that pioneers new technologies and products, has come up with the Neato XV-21, which is a new automatic vacuum cleaner that was specially designed for pet owners as well as allergy sufferers. It is capable of functioning across all floor types, and boasts of a new bristled brush that will help improve the pick-up of pet hair, dander and fibers, so that the vacuum cleaner will ultimately run more quietly compared to its predecessors. The introduction of a new filter that can be cleaned is definitely a boon, not to mention that the entire device was specially designed for long-term use, delivering increased airflow and suction power so that the Neato XV-21 will be able to pick up and retain over three times the fine dust particles of the company's standard filter. Even better news is this, if you are already in possession of a Neato Robotics model, the new brush and filter will also work just fine. If you are interested, you are able to pick up the Neato XV-21 is available in Misty White with purple highlights, and I would recommend sticking to cleaning your home regularly and daily. Hopefully the algorithm controlling it is smart enough for you to be able to invite folks over to your pad without feeling ashamed, as though the entire place is not fit for anyone except you. The Neato Robotics XV-21 automatic vacuum cleaner will retail for $429 at the end of next month onwards. Conference Calendar – The global conference and expo finder.
