Join The USB Soda Can Humidifier humidifies and purifies the air
This may appear to be just a regular pop can. One with odd and cheaply done artwork along the sides. However, this can is another mini humidifier in disguise. It’s meant to sit on your desk just like the Personal Humidifier that utilized a water bottle. However, this can will blend in with your daily caffeinated beverages instead of stick out like the other humidifier. The only thing to set it apart is the USB cord and on odd looking top. Well and not to mention it puffing out bits of steam. I suppose normal cans don’t do that, so that would look a little odd.

Geeky Doorbell
Doorbells are normally pretty ordinary but designer Li Jianye has different ideas with the ‘Enter’ doorbell. Doesn’t really words to describe it, it’s just a cool idea.

Sony Cybershot DSC-T500 digital camera
Sony wants more and more people to adopt the High Definition lifestyle (presumably so that they can sell even more of their lovely BRAVIA line of HDTVs, but that’s another story for a different day), and their latest offering would be the Sony Cybershot DSC-T500 digital camera that does more than capture lovely looking still images – it is also able to record video in both wide and full-screen mode at 720p at 30 frames per second. In addition, this 10 megapixel shooter allows one to zoom in while recording, and is equally at home for high sensitivity shooting for natural or low light conditions.

Sony’s new quartet of personal navigation devices
Who’d know that Sony would actually delve into the world of GPS navigation as well? I thought that the consumer electronics giant were pretty happy with their line up of flat TVs, high definition gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, but a Personal Navigation Device (PND)? Word has it that Sony recently announced four new PNDs under the model numbers NV-U94T, NV-U84, NV-U74T and NV-U44. In addition to helping you get around, these PNDs will include more brand icons, search functionality as well as photo viewing features so that you won’t get too bored while locating where’s the next rest room while you’re on the freeway.

Brother introduces a couple more printers
Brother isn’t exactly the number one name that you would normally associate with printers, but then again they do have some pretty decent offerings in the past and currently. This time round, Brother has rolled out a couple of models under the Professional Series banner, featuring all-in-one color inkjets. Those seem to be the most popular type of printers these days, since everybody wants convenience in a single device. Of course, the downside would be, having the printer break down equals to disaster since you would be devoid of the other functions and features as well. The two printers we’ll look at today are the new MFC-5890CN and MFC-5490CN models.

The Retro Wireless USB Microphone
If you have a thing for retro design you’re going to love this USB microphone. It features of course a retro inspired microphone. Which yes is a little more bulky than it needs to be, but it’s worth it to get the overall retro look. It uses radio-frequency identification, so you can move about the room with it as long as you’re within three meters. As you’re wandering you won’t have to worry about tripping over any wires, you can make a fool of yourself anyway though by singing into it.

Guitar Praise is Chrisitianized Guitar Hero
For years, way-to-conservative Christian groups have been saying that rock and roll music is “of the devil”. I suppose that would mean that games like Guitar Hero would be playing with the devil, correct?
Fortunately for these conservative groups, there is a “spiritualized” version of Guitar Hero, which has appropriately been named Guitar Praise.

G4 is thinnest laptop mouse, ever
I’ve got to hand it to the company who made the G4 Slim mouse. It can’t have been easy to make the world’s thinnest laptop mouse, or at least the world’s slimmest so far.
The G4 is a 5mm piece of plastic and metal that can fold up into a very flat slot. In fact, it is so flat that it can fit inside the PCMCIA slot of the laptop, which is one that I don’t use while the laptop is being transported.
This makes the G4 one of the most compact computer mice, and it comes with a retractable USB cable as well. This has a touch scroll pad in the middle of two left and right mouse buttons.
