Stuff.tv recently compiled a list of some of the devices that help Bolt stay fast including a new iPhone 4S, iPod Touch (favorite games: Temple Run and Angry Birds), $180 Puma BoltEvo spikes and a BMW M3. He also credits diet as well as Dartfish video analysis software for his success. Dartfish breaks down an athlete's movements for further analysis.

| Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 announced Posted: 07 Aug 2012 09:36 AM PDT
The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 certainly has its fair share of ‘coolness’ by virtue of it being an Android-powered tablet, and hopefully it will be able to provide an even better competition to the iPad compared to its brethren. This extension of the Galaxy Note category will come outfitted with the functionality and precision of a pen and paper on a 10.1-inch large display, opening up the door to potentially endless possibilities while elevating your creativity, productivity and learning abilities. It will boast of an intuitive user experience and thanks to its 1.4GHz quad-core processor which can be found on the Samsung Galaxy S3 as well, in addition to 2GB of RAM for enhanced performance, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 will certainly not come up wanting on the hardware front. Some of the key intuitive features and capabilities incorporated into the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 include side-by-side multitasking, where Samsung's unique 'S Pen' experiences will include a range of 'S Note templates' and productive tools, ranging from Shape Match and Formula Match to Learning Hub for accessing educational curricula (Learning Hub is currently available in Korea, the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, China and Singapore, and will gradually roll-out to other global markets) and Adobe's premium creative application Photoshop Touch. It also boasts of a Multiscreen feature that lets you effortlessly utilize a couple of different applications side-by-side simultaneously, paving the way for true and easy multitasking. You are able to check out Web pages or videos, or even launch other applications when you are writing the next novel or sketching ideas with the S Pen. Feel free to capture and crop images, and paste them onto the other screen in order to churn out your very own personal notes, now how about that? There is a 5-megapixel camera at the back alongside a 1.9-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls and self-portrait purposes. Three models are available – a WiFi-only version, a WiFi-and-3G HSPA-Plus connectivity version at launch, and a WiFi-and-LTE version that will be rolling out later this year.

| Tesco announces interactive virtual grocery store at Gatwick Airport Posted: 07 Aug 2012 09:19 AM PDT
After all, what is worse than returning home from holiday to an empty fridge? Yes, I know, some of us do empty the perishable contents of our fridge before we leave for a holiday just in case there is a permanent blackout or brownout for a week or so, leading the contents of our fridge to rot and basically making your whole house smell like a skunk. Hence, when we return and open the fridge, there is nothing much left to chew on or eat, which is where this interactive virtual grocery store comes in handy. Opening up the store in Gatwick will see the implementation of interactive digital displays to get your virtual shopping experience up and running, where passengers who pass through the North Terminal are able to browse products as though they were in a physical store in one sense, and this experience is culminated in the convenience of home delivery to boot. A quartet of interactive fridges in the virtual store are there for your perusal, and there will be half a dozen sites that are strategically positioned around the departure lounge for passengers to use. Each of the ‘fridge’ can be scrolled using your hand, and you can browse through the products simply by touching the screens, followed by scanning the product barcodes in order to add them to your basket. More than 80 products are featured, and hopefully the Tesco staff will fulfill your order with fresh, unspoilt items by the time your order arrives at your doorstep!

| USB Toaster Hub and Thumbdrives Posted: 07 Aug 2012 05:30 AM PDT
I guess it would be travesty not to collect all four “slices” of “toast”, especially when you consider how cute the whole setup would be if you were to piece them together. Not only that, ThinkGeek knows that the modern day road warrior is also one who carries a slew of other gizmos as well, which is where the SD memory card slot on this puppy comes in handy.

The Doctor Who TARDIS Book Light is a clip-on light that offers adequate amount of LCD light which is bright enough for you to read, and the light is also accompanied by a UV pen in order for you to write out secret notes whenever you are feeling a little bit secretive and have just watched Sherlock Holmes for the umpteenth time. The adjustable neck enables you to position the light wherever you need it, although just make sure there are always a couple of CR2 batteries lying around to keep it powered.

| Eliminate the Electric Plug Shuffle Posted: 07 Aug 2012 04:54 AM PDT Any veteran business traveler can attest to the stinginess of hotels when it comes to power outlets. They supply you a nice desk, comfortable chair and flat screen TV. But inevitably you get two, or maybe one empty plug for you to live and charge from. If you are sick of the "electric plug shuffle" while on the road then meet the Pivot Power Mini. The Pivot Power Mini allows you to charge 4 additional devices – 2 A/C and 2 USB – from one plug. Its design allows space for bulkier plugs. And when ready to leave just fold it up and throw it in your bag. And while good for road warriors, home use is limitless…bedside, kitchen, bathroom. So for just $24.99 let the Pivot Power Mini simplify your charging life and ditch the plug shuffle. [ Eliminate the Electric Plug Shuffle copyright by Coolest Gadgets ]

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 is one of the tablets that intend to push Apple’s iPad to the very brink, but then again, you can say that Samsung is not too successful in this matter as the iPad is nigh untouchable where tablet sales figures are concerned, just like how the iPod decimated all the other portable media players out there in the market previously no matter what the competitor did. The thing is, hardware is not the entire equation, there needs to be decent software and enough killer apps in the ecosystem to keep a particular device going strong, not to mention having a fantastic ‘cool’ image to go along with it.
The name Tesco is famous not only in the UK, but in many other countries around the world for offering lower prices of everyday items and groceries while you shop in a comfortable environment. I myself tend to get my weekly grocery shopping done over at Tesco, as the kind of goods that they have on offer tend to be fresh, not to mention being easy on the wallet. Well, here is an idea that the retail giant might hope to pioneer, that is, opening the first interactive virtual grocery store in Gatwick's North Terminal, making it the UK’s first of its kind.
Some of us might say that a particular file is toast once we accidentally pressed Shift and Delete keys on the keyboard, but you might want to think of making a backup of all your important files onto a USB flash drive beforehand. Now, since many of us already tote a fair number of USB flash drives as part of our collection, why not make matters more interesting by using a USB hub at home or in the office? You might as well make a stylish statement in the process with the 
I was told by my parents never to read under poor lighting conditions, as it is absolutely dreadful on the eyes. I guess I am reaping the consequences of my action now, and have been wearing glasses for the better part of two decades already. If you are an avid reader and would like to do so before you sleep each night, but your partner in bed prefers to enter Dreamland, here is a compromise gizmo that the both of you can agree on – the
