In our fast paced world it seems as though there is nothing more important than time. We keep track of it constantly, how much of it we need, how long things will take, and how little time we have left. People have been marking the minutes since.. well, the beginning of time. People are still wearing watches, more than just a fashion statement, the watch seems to be referred to more often than our phones, checking to see just how late you are to your next meeting or how long you need to wait for lunch. If you’re the watch wearing kind, you might want to check out Seiko’s newest offering, the Astron. I guess it’s not exactly new, Seiko has been making the Astron since 1969, but now we have a brand new Astron, the worlds first GPS, solar watch. Yup, I have to admit, it not only looks gorgeous, but this quartz watch has an accuracy within one second every 100,000 years! It’s true, the Astron does not require winding, or a battery, in fact it doesn’t need an external power source at all, because it is completely self-sustaining. The watch uses only the power of light and is able to connect to the GPS network and adjust itself (at the touch of a button) to whichever of the 39 time zones you may find yourself in. I guess it should also work for those pesky Daylight Savings time changes. So here’s a watch that sets itself, has a perpetual calendar that will be correct until February 28th, 2100 and runs on the power of light hitting its dial. (and that’s any light, not just the sun!) Available in titanium, stainless steel or even special edition styles, the new Astron is available now and if its time for you to have one, you can get it from amazon.com for right around 2,500 bucks.

Well, I guess life is always a cycle of ups and downs, and the same goes with gold prices, stock value, the works. If you are one who have decided to throw your lot behind gold, you might be interested to pick up the $499.95 Gold Karat Authenticator. As its name suggests, the Gold Karat Authenticator is a device that is capable of authenticating karat grades of gold. It does so without the need for messy gels, staining chemicals, or dangerous acids that are often employed by other authentication techniques, as the authenticator’s pure gold-tipped electrode is capable of measuring the electromagnetic frequency produced by a tested object using a safe saline solution which in turn functions as an electrolyte. Pure gold will naturally result in zero volts; and its tested karats are indicated immediately by a panel of LEDs, where it displays a range from six to 24 karats. Non-gold, gold plate, or gold-filled objects will be referred to as “NA”.

Fairness must be maintained at all times, although the approach should always be different to suit the individual child. When it comes to cutting a freshly baked (or purchased) cake, this is one tricky move since there is every possibility that your little one might come up to you and say that his or her brother's slice is larger than the one you allocated. Such disputes will be a thing of the past with the $14.99 Klipy Cake Divider, where as its name implies, it is capable of dividing a cake into perfectly equal piece. Cakes or pies, they will all fall to the Klipy Cake Divider, as you are able to make 6, 8, 10, or 12 equal slices. It is definitely a no brainer to use, and is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning afterwards. The trick in making sure you get evenly divided slices of cake each time is this – you will have to place it right smack in the center of the cake, and the rest of the hard mathematical work is done by the Klipy Cake Divider. Of course, it goes without saying that this works only with perfectly round cakes, cakes of other shapes and sizes do not apply.

The two candidates to fall under today's news spotlight would be the Logitech Harmony Ultimate and Logitech Harmony Smart Control. It does not matter whether you have finally decided to fall back on the Logitech Harmony Ultimate or the Logitech Harmony Smart Control, both of these devices will feature Logitech's new Harmony Hub and Harmony Smartphone App that paves the way for closed-cabinet and game console control. Not only that, it also marks the first time that the Harmony is even capable of helping you set the mood in your living room, as the Harmony Hub will take personalizing your activities to a totally new level as it can take full control of your Philips Hue lights with but a single touch of the Logitech Harmony Ultimate. A simple touch is all it takes for your remote control to turn on your TV, to boot up the Blu-ray player, and perhaps dim the lights to the desired brightness level or temperature as you begin to unwind after a particularly difficult day at work. With the help of the Logitech Harmony Ultimate in the palm of your hands, you are also capable of gaining access to the slew of your entertainment devices, where among them include infrared devices and game consoles, through your cabinets, walls or other kinds of obstacles. When you throw in the optional Harmony Smartphone App, it does not take a genius living under the same roof as you to transform the smartphone or tablet into a personal universal remote.

This particular deal between both companies is said to have been in development for over a year already, and it marks a significant step in delivering touch-free, intuitive computing to the masses. In a nutshell, this particular agreement will see the Leap Motion Controller come bundled with select HP personal computers later this summer, and will also eventually come to encompass a range of unique HP devices that are embedded with Leap Motion’s technology, although the folks over at HP are keeping mum about such HP devices at the moment. Not only that, HP's software, including Airspace which is their app store, will be pre-loaded on Leap Motion-integrated HP devices. The reason behind this move is to offer a tremendous opportunity for the developer community in order to make a mark by garnering an even larger global audience of users. Do bear in mind that this embedding deal is different from the one that Leap Motion announced with Asus, as that was a bundling deal in the past, and it signifies another significant endorsement of Leap Motion’s technology. What Leap Motion wants to do is this – to deliver 3D motion-control technology to the world without burning a hole in your wallet, and to do so as long as there is a computer in the vicinity, which is why they decided to form a collaboration with the folks over at HP to maximize their chances of fulfilling such a vision. Leap Motion co-founder and CEO Michael Buckwald, said, “Our focus at Leap Motion is to fundamentally improve how people interact with their devices, and offer as many ways as possible to achieve that vision. The possibilities for innovation are incredible, when you think about what will come from this collaboration between two respected global leaders in their fields – HP, the world’s largest technology company and Leap Motion, creator of the world’s most powerful 3-D motion-control technology.” Company Page [ Leap Motion and HP come together for embedded 3D motion-control technology copyright by Coolest Gadgets ] Read More Apr 16, 2013 02:59 pm | Julie iPhone Recovery Pro – So you Don't Totally Lose it! There’s a lot of good and bad that comes with technology, most of it is good, and I love it. But while our smartphones and computers streamline our lives they can certainly complicate them as well.We rely on our SmartPhones and computers for everything, all of our most important information, and then I’m also concerned about our kids, their connection with the world around them may just be too intimate. I love my electronics, don’t get me wrong, but I’d like a tool that keeps everything and everybody safe. Check out ER-220 SmartPhone Recovery Pro not only does it back up the data you have, but gets you back the things you deleted as well. All of us know the horror of watching the little trash can open and close and then realizing you just made a horrible mistake. ER-220 can be used to recover deleted data from your iPhone quickly and easily, and to display all your information on an intuitive interface residing on your Mac. Being able to see deleted data… that’s a very good thing. The software lets you see almost all the existing data on your phone, but best of all, it allows you to recover your deleted stuff including messages, call history, contacts, notes and calendar entries, and the all important iTunes files.

Recovery Pro also lets you take all your precious information and easily export it to your Mac as a backup file.
