Apr 11, 2013 11:26 am | Julie Fantasy Caskets – For your Dream Funeral We all know its inevitable, we’re all going to die. Quite frankly I’m not exactly sure how we so easily cope with that fact… but we do. I guess technically its the last relatively major event of our lives (or does the fact that we’re dead mean it doesn’t actually qualify?) Okay let’s not get philosophical here. I think planning for our eventual demise is a good thing, we plan for everything else, why not our last hurrah? It used to be that our “send off” options were pretty slim, from a pine box to an extra large perma-seal metallic, a casket was a casket so to speak, but not anymore! Check out these cool Fantasy Caskets made by specially skilled craftsman in Ghana. For over 50 years the Ga people have been turning out these amazing coffin options meant to symbolize the deceased’s vocation, hobby or perhaps even a vice or personality trait. In Ghana funerals are not only a time of mourning, but a time to celebrate the person’s life, and their passing into another life. Your “afterlife” options are endless, from fish and lobsters to Mercedes and cell phones these brightly colored works of art that are likely to last a lifetime (okay, I admit, in this case I don’t really know what that means) but it IS likely you’d be the first on your block to be buried in a giant iPod and thats got to be worth something. These Fantasy Caskets sell at markets in the Ghanaian capital, Accra for around 400 to 600 dollars US, which by the way, is about a years wages for the folks over there. I have to admit I was leaning towards cremation, that is, until now. I can really see myself heading out in a giant bottle of wine.

Well, their latest collaboration has resulted in what they call the FS1 Air speaker dock, where this particular speaker dock will come with AirPlay technology which enables it to stream music wirelessly from iTunes or Apple devices. Just what kind of hardware does the FS1 Air offer? Well, it boasts of a sophisticated design that was clearly inspired by the Scuderia Ferrari racing team, achieving a balance between the GT Car's innovative lines, creases and curves along the way. Not only that, there is also a 2.1 speaker system which will incorporate Apple AirPlay technology so that users are able to stream their favorite tunes sans wires from iTunes or Apple devices. This is one flexible speaker system which also sports Bluetooth connectivity, just in case you do not happen to own any AirPlay compatible device in your household, preferring instead to rock to Android or Windows based devices. Oh yeah, did we mention that the FS1 Air speaker dock will also come with an Apple Dock connector that allows you to charge and play your Apple device simultaneously? The FS1 Air will boast of a compact design which in essence, allows it to be the perfect addition to any room in the house, or if you prefer to perk up your workplace, at the office. It will incorporate patented Class HD Technology alongside a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) that controls the crossover and equalization processes, delivering an end result which goes along the lines of best performance, natural musical timbre and extended low frequency response. If you are interested, be prepared to fork out a rather hefty $649 for the FS1 Air Speaker Dock from Ferrari by Logic3.

For example, they do want to do their level best to cater across a wide range of users when it comes to their smartphone range, which explains why they have entry level models, mid-range devices, and of course, flagship models that will send the world to a standstill whenever there is an impending announcement. Not only that, Samsung does deliver smartphones in all shapes and sizes, but it seems that they are placing more emphasis on the phablet segment this time around, with the announcement of the new Samsung Galaxy Win. The Samsung Galaxy Win is said to be an intuitive new smartphone which was specially designed to balance the needs of the on-the-go user, where it is accompanied by massive processing power, the ability to perform multitasking, all crammed into a 4.7" design that would certainly leave some quarters wondering whether they should pick up the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 instead. As for its hardware specifications, the Samsung Galaxy Win will run on a quad-core 1.2GHz processor, sport a 4.7" WVGA TFT display, with a 5-megapixel camera at the back alongside a VGA camera in front, where the rear camera boasts of capabilities like Continuous Shot, Best Photo, and multiple color effects that allows you to capture high-quality photos in a fun and easy manner. Not only that, it is accompanied by 1GB RAM, 8GB of internal memory, and just in case that is not enough, you can always further augment it by throwing in a microSD memory card to boot. You will be able to choose from two colors when the Samsung Galaxy Win arrives in its respective markets, with Ceramic White and Titan Gray to pick, while a couple of variants are also at your disposal, where you will have to select between single SIM or dual SIM.

After all, these kids do seem to be bundles of inexhaustible energy, and since the world is constantly on the lookout for different sources of renewable energy, why not harness what your progeny have to offer? Of course, to do so in an inhumane manner is unforgivable, which is why we have to settle for a second best solution, that is, with the $21.99 Magic Movers Electronic Wand. Basically, the Magic Movers Electronic Wand will not be able to harness the energy from your kids, but what it does is make sure that the little ones will be able to expend as much energy as possible, so that by the time dinner is over, they will be way too tired to bother you, and you can finally get some much needed peace and quiet around the home. The Magic Movers Electronic Wand would offer an interactive game that encourages kids to get up and move around when they play. There are more than 90 creative movements instructions stored in the wand itself, where they will be instructed to move! Leap like a lion! Hop like a frog! Stomp like a dinosaur! As long as it does not run out of the three AAA batteries inside, you are able to safeguard your precious quiet evenings.

Well, peripherals for the iPad have not been entirely the most interesting market to look at, as majority of the peripherals rolled out for it tend to be protective cases and covers, including those that come with a built-in keyboard so that you have a pseudo-Ultrabook of sorts on the go. Well, the $149.95 iPad Document Scanner is certainly something else altogether. In a nutshell, the iPad Document Scanner functions as a device that is capable of scanning documents straight to an iPad. This scanner will be able to feed pictures as well as documents automatically, up to 8 1/2″ x 14″ in size, before converting them to the JPEG file format, where they are subsequently stored on a docked iPad. This does away with the need to scan documents to a computer before they are transferred over to an iPad, as the device will save the scanned images straight to the iPad’s camera roll. The scanning progress will be shown in real time on the iPad, and you will be able to enjoy images which have been scanned at 300 dpi resolution, paving the way for you to carry preserved documents in their digital formats in clear, full-color glory. Whenever your iPad is docked, the scanner will take this opportunity to juice itself up as well.

Personally, I don’t actually go to the bathroom (although I challenge anyone to prove otherwise) My husband and daughter on the other hand, are true professionals. They have preferred toilet paper, favorite air fresheners and each one has a stack of magazines a mile high. Each of them can tie up a bathroom for 20-30 minutes easily. Well this next gadget isn’t going to help matters any. Check out the iCarta2 Bluetooth Stereo Toilet Paper Holder, this nifty little gadget allows you to listen to your favorite tunes while taking a sh… um, shower! Thats it! while taking a shower, or any other restroom activities that a little musical entertainment might add some enjoyment to. The iCarta will wirelessly stream your music from up to 10 feet away (leaving your device far from the steaming sh… oh yeah, we’re going with shower) Play music and podcasts from your iPhone, iPod or even your Android Smartphone. Also a formidable toilet tissue holder, the iCarta is easily installed and goes with almost any bathroom decor. The unit has two 4 watt speakers, powered by four AA batteries and works with mobile devices that run Bluetooth 2.0 or higher, including iPod and  iPhone (3.0 and higher), or iPad and Android Devices. The iCarta also has an LED indicator for both power and pairing status as well as volume controls. So if you find yourself a little light on entertainment options for your bathroom, the iCarta2 will provide you with about 20 hours of playtime with fresh batteries. That should be plenty of time, don’t you think? Get one at amazon.com for under 60 bucks.

Daily Digest Coolest Gadgets for 04/10/2013

The latest and coolest gadgets daily digest Is this email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser. Apr 10, 2013 08:30 am | Edwin G-Technology announces brand new G-Drive Pro G-Technology has just announced the spanking new G-Drive Pro that boasts of Thunderbolt capability, where this could very well be your next purchase candidate when it comes to a compact, desktop external hard drive which will offer hard drive capacity alongside the benefits of SSD-like performance. In addition, it will be able to take full advantage of the speed and power of Thunderbolt. By leveraging on G-Technology’s well-known G-Drive design, the new G-Drive Pro with Thunderbolt is capable of delivering sustained data transfer rates of up to 480MB/s, and as we all know, that would mean it is up to three times faster compared to standard issue 3.5-inch desktop external hard drives. At this point in time, new high-resolution media formats and related files sizes do require massive amounts of storage space in addition to ever faster data transfer rates so that one can efficiently edit and distribute content throughout the workflow without being inefficient. If one were to take a look at the figures, it would be staggering. Take for example, an uncompressed 2K digital video format, that alone will take up more than one terabyte (1TB) per hour, and will require approximately 305 megabytes per second (MB/s) sustained throughput for smooth editing without experiencing any kind of dropped frames. Such high-resolution video formats, alongside the rising popularity of higher megapixel DSLR cameras which are used to capture professional 2K video, has served up a need for a new high-performance storage solution that will be able to cater to the requirements of today’s digital content creators. The G-Drive Pro with Thunderbolt will be made available to the masses later this summer via G-Technology and its Premier Channel Partners. The asking price for the 4TB G-Drive with Thunderbolt will cost $849.95, while those who are on a tighter budget or do not have that much need for space can settle for the $699.95 2TB G-Drive Pro with Thunderbolt.

Assuming all you know about it would be Felix the Cat as a cartoon character, here is something else to tickle your imagination. Felix comes across as a mobile accessories maker this time around, and they have recently launched the MonkeyOh for the iPhone on Kickstarter, the famous crowd funding website that has seen its fair share of projects approved from time to time, no matter how improbable it looked from the beginning. The MonkeyOh for the iPhone is set to be a unique and versatile charging dock and stand that merges both form and functionality into a single and fun package. Not only that, this fanciful stand will also double as a cord wrap whenever it is plugged into an electrical outlet, where it will free up counter space while doing away with messy wires which seem to have a life of their own. Chris Michaud, CEO of Felix, said, "We [Felix] can't stand cord clutter so we came up with a simple solution to that everyday problem- the MonkeyOh. We also wanted to create a product that has as much personality as functionality, and elicits a strong emotional response from consumers. So, we put all our accessories through a 'smile test.' You smile- it passes!" How does the MonkeyOh work? All you need to do is slide your Apple power adapter into MonkeyOh's "backpack" slot, continue by plugging in the USB end of the power cord into the monkey's mouth, and then to wrap the cord around the backpack. This is a unique design that will help to organize your space instantly by getting rid of tangled cords, where you can then slide your smartphone into the flexible yet durable monkey arms for a more comfortable, hands-free multi-media viewing. If you want to, the MonkeyOh can also be placed on your desk or bedside table as an iPhone stand, now how about that? Press Release [ Felix introduces MonkeyOh for the iPhone copyright by Coolest Gadgets ] Read More Apr 10, 2013 05:30 am | Edwin Golf Swing Recording Video Camera Tiger Woods has definitely battled his way back to top spot in the world of professional golf, and he certainly had to go through plenty of obstacles along the way, which I believe that the second ascent proved to be a whole lot harder than the first. Well, one of the things that he normally did was to improve on his golf swing, and of course, he had swing coaches to help him out, but you as the ordinary man on the street who loves all things golf, how do you improve on your swing? The answer could very well lie in the $349.99 Golf Swing Recording Video Camera, where the name of this device says it all. The Golf Swing Recording Video Camera comes in the form of a high-definition video camera which can be staked into the ground, where it will go about recording your golf swings to help you improve your game. The camera will be mounted atop a 3′ pole with a turf spike, ensuring instant placement in the tee box or fairway without causing any disruption to play. With its wide-angle lens, it is capable of capturing a golfer’s entire swing from 10 feet away, recording at a crisp 720p or 1080p HD video at 60 or 30 frames per second with but a single button press. With its 8GB of internal memory, it is able to record up to 2 hours' worth of video for your own analysis later on.

Well, wearing the right kind of jacket could help make your life a whole lot easier, and just in case you were wondering which company is capable of coming up with a geek-friendly jacket, look no further than Scottevest, who has come up with their fair share of wonders in the past, in addition to their most recent addition – the $149.99 Tropiformer jacket. The Tropiformer jacket is a tech- and travel-focused garment which would make life a whole lot easier, especially when you have a plethora of gadgets and gear to tote around. It will arrive in four different colors to suit most geeks' taste, while boasting 22 integrated pockets which were specially designed to distribute the weight of an entire convention's worth of necessaries equally, leaving you with far less sore shoulders and forearms at the end of the day. Not only that, the Tropiformer jacket will come with magnetically attached sleeves so that it can be transformed from jacket to vest in mere seconds. To see a dedicated tablet pocket thrown into the mix is certainly encouraging, too.
