Ekomini Interactive Moneybox – play games with saved money Posted: 17 Jan 2010 09:00 AM PST Finding the motivation to save your money can sometimes be like pulling teeth.  There’s just so much more cool stuff to buy when you have the cash in hand.  That money just burns a hole in your pocket.  Well to help you or your kids learn to save that money there is this Ekomini Moneybox.  You save all of your money inside of it and it’ll let you use that hard earned cash inside of a game online. To work it needs a bit of electricity and an internet connection.  That’ll allow for it to scan your coins and connect the amount with the social networking site (ekominiville.com).  Then within the game you’ll have some financial activities and games that include goal-setting, spending, sharing, investing, saving and other various tasks.  The website itself is actually free, all you have to do is pay for the bank.  You can purchase the moneybox for $45.14 through Ekomini.

iPod Headphones Hold Your Nano Posted: 17 Jan 2010 08:17 AM PST Sometimes it seems like there are far more accessories for the iPod Nano than any of the other versions of the iPod.  Whether or not that’s actually the case is debatable, but here’s one more to add to the list.  I’m not exactly saying this addition is a good thing, but it does give you more options when you’re trying to find that perfect Nano accessory.  With this you’ll have headphones and a way to hold your Nano in place all in one gadget. The headphones have a small pocket that will hold your Nano directly on your head.  It’s designed for 2nd and 3rd generations.  The Nano plugs in wirelessly, but any other MP3 players will have to use a connecting cord that is included upon purchasing.  The lightweight headphones might be a bit too bulky for some.  However, if you like the size of them you can pick yourself up a set for $17.99 through the Skymall.

DIY Lens Cap Keeper Posted: 17 Jan 2010 06:50 AM PST If you have a camera with a lens cap, then you know well the lengths you have to go through in order to make sure that you don’t lose the cap.  My solution is usually to put it in my back pocket, but I’m always afraid I’m going to break the cap that way.  I’d rather not have to replace a lens cap that costs anywhere from $20 on up to $40.  Instead you can make one of these Lens Cap Keepers for no cost. The steps are pretty simple, you use plastic from a shampoo bottle or something along those lines.  Then you print out the template and tape it to your flattened plastic piece.  The rest is pretty basic and thankfully none of the tools you’ll need are out of the ordinary.  The only one that might give people problems is a hole puncher, but you can substitute that with a drill.  There’s a full tutorial as well as printable templates that you can check out.

Hydrogen R/C Car Model Kit Posted: 16 Jan 2010 01:50 PM PST Want to achieve a higher level of performance when it comes to R/C car model kits? The Hydrogen R/C Car Model Kit might just fit the bill then, where this latest prototype hydrogen fuel cell power kit was specially designed around Tamiya’s TRF 416 carbon fiber chassis. It is still in the prototype stage at point of publishing, so you won’t see it hit the stores anytime soon although we’re pretty sure that enthusiasts can’t wait for an official release. A couple of HydroSTIKs are able to carry around 15Wh of energy or 13L of hydrogen, where they are integrated to the fuel cell electric power-train on either side of the chassis which results in enhanced weight distribution for the car. Bear in mind the TRF-416 chassis is available as an assembly kit and will not ship with wheels, a brushless motor, a speed controller, a servo-motor, receiver and transmitter, as all of those can be purchased separately from your local hobby shop.

Adidas miCoach training platform Posted: 16 Jan 2010 01:43 PM PST Everyone knows the name Adidas as this is a global sportswear leader who has a presence in just about every country. Well, what better way to shed off those pounds garnered during the holiday season feasting than burning it off with good ol’ exercise? Adidas aims to help you achieve your weight goals with their latest miCoach training platform that is capable of coaching you verbally while you are pounding the pavement in your pair of Adidas trainers. Basically, the miCoach is supposed to simplify the science of running while highlighting the importance of personalized coaching in order for you to achieve your personal weight goals in double quick time without taking any shortcuts like half-baked diets and weight-loss foods. The new miCoach interactive training platform comprises of two different devices – the miCoach Pacer and the miCoach Zone. We’ll take a look at the miCoach Pacer first, where it is a small, lightweight device which is capable of delivering real-time audible coaching with a pair of headphones as you exercise, or it can also work in conjunction with your very own digital audio player. Whenever you run, the miCoach Pacer verbally coach you via various cues including “speed up to green zone” or “slow down to blue zone” among others if you’re pulling a Speedy Gonzales at that moment. This verbal coaching makes sure you will remain within the targeted heart rate zone while making sure you are comfortable with your personal level and timing. As for the miCoach Zone, this easy-to-read color-code LED display is located right on a wristband device, where it offers accurate, real-time information that makes it a snap to train at the right intensity when used in tandem with a heart rate monitor. With both devices, you can free up your mind to think of other stuff since you no longer need to concentrate on how fast you’re going or whether you are running within your optimal heart rate zone. It practically does all the thinking on your behalf, knowing what your final goal is like and helping you accomplish it in the best and most optimal manner possible. From the website (www.micoach.com), you will be able to create personalized training plans, set the appropriate goals and proactively monitor and manage your progress over time. Expect to fork out $139.99 for the complete miCoach Pacer system, while the Zone retails for $65.99.

Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors make it sound as if you were there live Posted: 16 Jan 2010 01:39 PM PST Ultimate Ears clearly aims to live up to its name with the Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors that boasts the first six-speaker design from the company, offering musicians a new kind of sound definition and clarity. Each unit is handcrafted just like a fine instrument to make sure it fits comfortably, where its design is capable of helping reduce ambient noise by 26 dBs. Of course, you need not be a performing artist to appreciate what the Ultimate Ears 18 Pro can do for you, as any serious audiophile would also want to check it out for their collection as well. Just like fingerprints that are unique to just about everyone, the Ultimate Ears 18 Pro Custom Monitors can also be customized to feature a proprietary six-speaker design which is capable of fitting half a dozen individually tuned drivers in each ear, capable of delivering audio sans distortion which are normally what artists look for whenever they are on a live stage performing. Regardless of how loud your gig is, while wearing the new Ultimate Ears monitors, you will be able to enjoy amazing instrument and vocal clarity in the mid range, extended sound reproduction of the high notes, as well as a powerful and visceral low end. Not only that, Ultimate Ears' latest monitors also merge four-way crossovers with acoustic and electrical tuning, patent-pending triple-sound channels as well as a new low-distortion cable which results in the Ultimate Ears sound signature. All sound channels will come with an acoustically tuned in-line filter which ensures the frequencies remain separate and balanced until they make their way to your ear naturally, and not within the monitors themselves.

The Briefcase USB Turntable Posted: 15 Jan 2010 02:00 PM PST I’ve never had a moment where I felt as if I was in dire need of a turntable concealed inside of a briefcase.  Then again, I could be the oddball, maybe everyone is dying for a record player that they can carry around everywhere.  Granted it’s not as portable as an MP3 player, but it’s unlikely that it’s much heavier than a laptop.  You’ll look completely professional up until you open it up and people realize you’re toting around a turntable. The high-quality turntable will convert all of your precious vinyl into digital format.  It’s a belt driven mechanism that will play 7", 10" and 12" records.  It also features a fully automatic return tone arm and built-in dynamic full range stereo speakers.  The exterior is wrapped in vinyl and has connectors to hook the turntable up to your USB port.  You can pick up the Briefcase USB Turntable for $69.99 from Think Geek.
