2 new cool Sony Ericsson cellphones – Z558 and W830
Sony Ericsson has recently added 4 cellphones that can be mentioned as upgrades of previous versions, I will mention 2 of them that I liked and would probably buy if money wasn’t a problem. While cellphones don’t have the right to a daily appearance on Coolest Gadgets (which is good) these newborns deserve some attention because they are kind of unique.
To start with we have the Z558 (previous Z550) that is oriented for China and the surrounding markets, it is special because it is the first cellphone from Sony Ericsson that doesn’t uses the Symbian software and the other bonus is having a touch screen & stylus system – this is a kind of rare feature to see on clamshell phones. There is still an extra incentive that many people will love or hate depending on how easy it is to use, the character recognition (special with Chinese characters) might make life easier hard when writing text for SMS.

Ambient Light Flat Panel TVs
I’m currently in the midst’s of a house move, one of the great benefits of which is I’ve been given “permission” to kit out the living room as a home cinema. From a gadget point of view this is great as it means I’ll need to get a load of new kit including:

- New surround sound system
- Media PC (I’ll probably reuse an old one for this but Mac Minis do look cool)

Bring gaming audio to the next level
Turtle Beach is a company that is famous for its expertise in the world of computer audio, and their sound cards have been around long enough to make them legends. Naturally, they have branched out to different aspects of sound, and what better way to do so than enter headlong into the wild world of gaming? After all, gaming is a multi-billion dollar industry, so any peripheral which enhances the gaming experience will naturally end up as a big seller. The Ear Force X1 amplified headphones aim to give hardcore gamers the edge over their opponents which they so crave for. After all, aren’t such gamers the very same ones who would not blink an eye when it comes to forking out huge amounts of money for mundane items such as mouse pads and optical mice?

SecureGive machines takes money
It is rather ironic that a machine which takes nothing but money from the local church’s congregation is called SecureGive. These Giving Kiosks brings a whole new dimension to giving your tithes and offerings as there is no longer any need to pass the collection plate around during the weekly service. Members will not need to carry cash or checkbooks with them in order to make a donation – all they have got to do is to insert their ATM card and go through a series of simple menus in order to enter the amount of dollars that he or she wants to donate for the greater good.
