ICE ROCKS® branded mineral ice cubes
October 25, 2006

I know that there are ice factories delivering ice blocks to markets, parties and events, but I did not know of branded freeze-ready mineral water that’s hermetically sealed in recyclable containers sold like how they would sell bottled mineral water. Wow.. money to be made from anything. They come in pack of 4, 24 or 48.

MPIO FL400 Quartz
October 25, 2006

MPIO creates MP3 players like harvesting rice… The MPIO FL400 has a sharp-looking, wearable design; its simple drag-and-drop transferring is preferred by some users; supports purchased (but not subscription) WMA files.
Thats it… 2GB memory and does what any other MP3 players can do.

Sony Ericsson SO903i Bravia quality walkman camera… phone
October 25, 2006

DoCoMo announced SE SO903i a FOMA 3G mobile with a QVGA display using the same Reality MAX technology enclosed in the BRAVIA HD TVs. The phone has a MP3 player with 1GB of memory. Even for this, Sony offers what’s best with VME (Virtual Mobile Engine), and the Stamina mode which allows almost 45 hours of running time in walkman mode. There’s also a 3.2Mpix camera with image stabilizer. The phone measures 50×20x106 and weights 125g.
Another thing I was inpressed with was the ‘live calendar’ which is more useful than the nokia lifeblog. The calendar have popups that show the pictures you took and past messages or mails, together with your schedules. Power.
And when you flip it open, you can make phone calls. The japanese always get the best, 6 months in advance. The rest of the world is obsolete.

Sennheiser goes mainstream, now Bose too with its In-Ear Headphones. Like its home entertainment speaker system, the headphones looked understated but carries with it a full, rich sound with distinct clarity and warmth. Bose research and engineering are at the core of the remarkable performance of Bose in-ear headphones. They incorporate their proprietary TriPort® acoustic headphone structure, for greater low-frequency output from a small headphone. This technology creates a more balanced, lifelike sound, with more range, realism and clarity than commonly found with conventional earbuds.
At USD99.95, its priced like its speaker systems, expensive.

Echo Bot the alien parrot
October 25, 2006

Echo Bot records 10 seconds of your message and then sit back, waiting for some unsuspecting passer by walks within sensor reach to sets it off. It will relay the message to anyone who walks within its 1 metre motion sensor radius, which is located in its eye.
Echo Bot’s tripods are made with a bendable wire embedded within its plastic casing so you can twist, twirl and curl it into whatever poses you like. Each leg also has suction cup foot so you can stick Echo Bot to a variety of surfaces and sneaky hideaways.
Sure to freak people out in the morning waking hours…
