There is still plenty of sun and fun to enjoy at the beach or the pool this summer. Yet we are gadget creatures. It is hard to cut the tether on our electronic conveniences when we go out and about. But the elements do take a toll on technology if not properly protected. Proporta, no stranger to gadget cases, gives you peace of mind while enjoying those last days of summer. The line of Proporta BeachBuoy Waterproof Cases provide a 100% waterproof pouch for your tablet or eReader. A watertight double seal keeps water or grit out while the touchscreen remains completely usable. And if you are feeling really adventurous take your tablet under water! The BeachBuoy has been tested and certified by the British Standards Institute after being submerged at 5 meters for an hour. I doubt many people can hold their breath long enough to read underwater. But underwater photos and video on your device are a great way to show off what you saw. And should your tablet accidentally find the water, not to worry. It will survive with a BeachBuoy. Proporta even custom designed cases for the most popular devices: iPad, Galaxy, Nexus, Kindle and more. Pools and beaches are not the only uses for a BeachBuoy. Keep it on the gift list for the bath lover in your life. Or let the kids use it when they play games and ensure the inevitable liquid spills will not hamper your gadget. The Proporta BeachBuoy Waterproof Case is available from Amazon.com. Prices range up to $27, depending on the type of device you want to house. Most are around $19.95, which is a worthwhile investment for an expensive device. Could you or your device have used a BeachBuoy? Did your tablet go for a swim? Did the kids try to skip it across the pool? Share with us any stories of how a BeachBuoy could have saved your device. Let's hear some of the horror stories!

| BUG-A-SALT – Insect Hunting at its Best Posted: 01 Aug 2012 09:22 AM PDT
There is nothing I hate more than flies. Somehow, above all other insects, some of which I know are much more disgusting, the fly just seems to scream filth and disease. Did you know most flies vomit on whatever it wants to eat, in order to suck up the nutrients in liquid form? Anytime a fly lands on my food, I picture that, and I’m done, doesn’t matter how good dinner was, in the garbage it goes. As you can imagine, I’m not a huge fan of the summer ritual known as, the picnic. Well, forget your fly smashing swatter and check out the BUG-A-SALT, a specialized weapon that utilizes ordinary table salt in order for you to mount your fly attack. With no cords or batteries, the BUG-A-SALT salt gun has deadly accuracy up to 3 feet, and it leaves the insects intact allowing for easy clean up. Come on, you know theres a bit of a killer in you, and bug hunting is legal, with no license required. You simply lift the loader cap and pour in ordinary granulated table salt, which, when filled, will yield approximately 50 shots, you cock the weapon by sliding the handle towards you and pushing away the barrel of the gun, this action will activate the auto safety and the pop up sight, and ready you to claim your prey, simply release the safety…and launch your attack! Effective against roaches, wasps and even mosquito’s the BUG-A-SALT shoots only a pinch of salt and the manufacturer suggests firing your weapon at some tin foil in order to check spray patterns and pinpoint your aim. The BUG-A-SALT is now ready for pre-order for 30 bucks from bugasalt.com. As with any weapon, be careful of others eyes and faces, and don’t harm butterflies or protected insects. Flies however, are fair game.

I always find a bit of a disconnect when I send gifts directly to a recipient from a website. The same kind of feeling I get when I choose to give a gift card, for whatever reason, either act seems to impart a feeling of uncaring, like I didn’t take the time to think of the person, and just haphazardly took the quick and easy way out. (even if I didn’t) It would be nice if you could send a gift with a more personal touch, you know, to let those you care about really know how much they mean to you, but somehow a generic brown box doesn’t quite cut it. There’s now a service called MessagesWithGifts, a San Francisco based new business start-up, that is offering retailers’ the ability to give their gift-buyers the option of recording a voice or video message with each and every purchase. Directions on how to access the message, including a personalized pin number, go with each gift to the intended recipient. So when the gift and the message arrive together, its almost as good as you being there to say I’m thinking about you. So forget the little business card sized note that says I love you with your flowers, and gone are the days your mom gets that neat electronic device that she has no idea what it does, simply let MessagesWithGifts say it for you. The company makes it easy for consumers to record the messages, and just as simple for the recipient to retrieve them and what an easy way to propose marriage, from far away, with no fear of face to face rejection! The service brings an added emotional element to both buying and receiving items from almost any vendor that subscribes to the service, and stores can charge a premium for it - so I would expect to see this service, or something very similar, at retailers soon. For more information for your shop or business, please visit MessegesWithGifts.com.

The Q Card Case For iPhone is said to make your life a whole lot simpler, as you are able to carry some cash with it, in addition to up to three cards that are snuggled nicely alongside your iPhone 4/iPhone 4S. It is made out of an exclusive patent pending soft-touch rubber and premium fabric for that added touch of class, and the Q Card Case itself will come with a flat Screen Guard design that delivers the ultimate screen protection and ease of use. Not quite the electronic wallet that you envision in the future, but it is one step closer, don’t you think so? [ Q Card Case For iPhone copyright by Coolest Gadgets ]

| Gargantuan Inflatable Gargoyle Posted: 01 Aug 2012 06:00 AM PDT
Yes sir, a Gargantuan Inflatable Gargoyle? Sounds near impossible, but Hammacher has done what Adidas had always preached about. This inflatable 15′ gargoyle will tower over visitors at a Halloween yard display, where it ensures it will do its very best to keep a nightly vigil without ever dozing off, unlike a human. Of course, you can always have your pet dog do the job, but don’t you think a gargoyle is far more intimidating, where it comes with powerful clawed hindquarters and forefeet? Not only that, it can move its massive 3′-wide head 60ยบ back and forth for that added menacing look. [ Gargantuan Inflatable Gargoyle copyright by Coolest Gadgets ]

| OMGIGHO convertible rocking chair Posted: 01 Aug 2012 05:30 AM PDT
This chair is said to be the first of its kind, where it is tipped to be on the receiving end of significant attention from representatives of both the video game and furniture industries. In fact, OMGIGHO managed to successfully secure a provisional patent on the GO-GO sometime earlier this year, going to show just how serious the folks over there are about realizing this dream of theirs. When you take a first look at the OMGIGHO GO-GO, it does somewhat resemble a sleek, modern rocking chair that comes complete with a birchwood base and black rubber trim. However, those who are sharper eyed will be able to take note of its more unique aspects right there and then, that is, the GO-GO being a chair which is actually a real autoseat. This would give the game away to the more hot blooded among you – this particular rocker will be able to transform into a simulated racing cockpit for video games or a laptop workstation, now how about that? Surely it will not have the same kind of experience as the Tumbler from Batman when it is in weapons mode, but still… Colin James, OMGIGHO co-founder and creator of the GO-GO, said, “The use of a real auto seat allows for a full range of adjustment. It’s unlike any other rocking chair on the market,” the avid gamer affirms. There is still some way to go in achieving its goal of $10,000, as at press time, the OMGIGHO GO-GO chair has just achieved $1,746 in funding from 16 backers.

It goes without saying that one of the first few peripherals that most folks would get for their iPhone at the store itself would be a protective case of some sort. Well, if you are thinking of doing so for your iPhone (brand new or not, and only of the 4 and 4S variants), then you might want to check out what ThinkGeek has in store for you with the 
Yup, it is that time of the year which is going to loom upon us yet again – Halloween, where you spend some time and a fair amount of money to make sure that your front lawn looks as though it is a setting right out from a horror movie. This time around, you might want to consider planting a gargoyle right smack in the middle of your yard – it does not matter whether it is in front or at the back. The thing about gargoyles is this, they tend to be super heavy simply because they are made out of stone. Well, here is something that you can easily set up each year (and remove, of course) without breaking your back – simply because we are talking about the 
A rocking chair is a rocking chair, is it not? Apparently not, as your grandfather’s rocking chair is far obsolete compared to the OMGIGHO convertible rocking chair that you see above. Granted, this is still in the conceptual stage since it needs your help to be realized as part of the Kickstarter community, but at least it is a start, and you know that with enough funds, it would also be possible to get cracking on such a piece of home furniture. This multi-function rocking chair is also known as the GO-GO Multi-Function Rocking Chair, or if you find that to be too long for your liking, then just a plain and simple “GO-GO” will do. | You are subscribed to email updates from Coolest Gadgets To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now. | Email delivery powered by Google |
