Nokia Asha 310 does the dual SIM dance

When it comes to smartphones, you can more or less say that Nokia has already lost the race a long time ago across the globe, no thanks to full touchscreen devices from the iOS and Android camps. Well, the Finnish phone manufacturing company has come up with their Windows Phone 8 collection of handsets recently, but this does not mean that they have forgotten to cater to other developing countries whose population do not have the kind of purchasing power to change their smartphone every single year to a new flagship model. Featurephones, then, still have a place in this world, and the Nokia Asha 310 is the latest featurephone to arrive from Nokia, sporting dual SIM capability not to mention Wi-Fi connectivity for the first time in a device of its class.

As the Nokia Asha 310 allows you to enjoy the benefits of both Wi-Fi and dual SIM, it will, in the long run, help you cut down on costs as you get to save money by choosing a wireless network for accessing the Internet, as well as having the flexibility to use the right SIM card for the right purpose, all without having to even change your handset or to turn off your mobile device in order to swap SIM cards.

After all, Nokia makes life easy with the Nokia Asha 310 courtesy of its Easy Swap Dual SIM technology that was specially designed to make swapping between different SIM cards a snap. This is made possible as your main SIM card remains comfortably tucked away behind the battery, but the second SIM card slot is at the side of the phone, letting you switch the second SIM easily, all without having to turn off the phone. The included SIM manager lets you assign unique profiles for up to five SIM cards, and you can even define just which SIM card you want to use for calling, sending text messages or for using Internet data.

This GSM/EDGE 900/1800 featurephone will come with a 3-inch WQVGA, capacitive touch display, up to 20MB of internal memory, a microSD memory card slot, Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP connectivity, and up to 17 hours of talk-time. Expect to see the Nokia Asha 310 hit Asia, India, the Middle East, Africa and Brazil sometime in Q1 2013 for $102 a pop.

bēm wireless unveils Outlet Speaker

A company that has a name like bēm wireless can only mean one thing – it deals with the wonderful world of wireless connectivity. Thing is, bēm wireless' latest release would be the Outlet Speaker, and as its name implies, functions as a highly portable and powerful Bluetooth speaker that will plug in directly into an electrical outlet, be it at home or whether you are at the office. The bēm wireless Outdoor Speaker is said to be unique, complementing the user's lifestyle as it helps to add a simple touch of elegance to any décor. Not only that, since it is relatively small in size – which bēm wireless claims to be somewhat similar in dimensions as that of a juice box, it takes up extremely little space, and yet delivers crystal clear sound, now how about that?

Bryan Katzel, Director of Marketing and Product Development for bēm, said, "Our thought behind the outlet speaker is to enhance the consumer's everyday life. We believe big sound doesn't necessarily need to come from a big speaker. The beauty behind the outlet speaker is in its simplicity. Plug it in while cooking dinner without taking up any counter space, stick it in an outlet behind your desk at work to hear your favorite tunes to spark your creativity, or tuck it behind the living room couch to fill your home with great music."

Sporting a wireless range of up to 25 feet, the Outlet Speaker allows the user to control their music directly from an iOS device, or they can opt for other Bluetooth-enabled smartphones too, if they so desire. It will be accompanied by a built-in power adapter, which means you more or less never have to worry about it ever running out of juice. Each time your ears itch for your favorite music, all you need to do is plug it in, and listen, wherever and whenever convenient to you. Heck, there is also a built-in USB port that enables you to juice up compatible mobile devices with the Outlet Speaker while you enjoy clear audio from it. bēm wireless has also decided to throw in an Aux In and Aux Out so that you have more connecting options. You can pick up the Outlet Speaker from bēm wireless in white or black shades at $99.99 a pop.

Pedometer Walking Stick

Now, the $99.95 Pedometer Walking Stick is something that folks should have thought up of in the first place, but somehow or rather, no one came up with it until the folks at Hammacher did. As the name implies, this walking stick boats of a built-in pedometer which is more than capable of tracking steps, distance, time, and calories. It is constructed from lightweight yet sturdy aluminum, where the stick itself will assemble from two halves, twisting and locking into place without taking up too much of your time. Right below the handle on the shaft itself lies the pedometer that will activate automatically whenever its rubber tip strikes the ground.

This pedometer will then get to work, measuring every other step that is taken during a walking session while showing off the elapsed time. Whenever you stop, the pedometer will pause its counting to ensure accuracy. The display also shows off the total number of steps, calories burned, and distance in 10ths of a mile. With a contoured ABS handle that includes a polyester wrist strap and an upper shaft that has been coated with rubber for a comfortable grip, you know that the Pedometer Walking Stick is not poorly thought up of. There is also an LED light that clips to the shaft so that it can help illuminate walkways, or you can use it to flash a warning signal by blinking.
