Wet Smartphone Emergency Kit – CPR for your iPhone?
Here’s a story thats hard to believe, a few years ago, I left my cell phone out by the pool and that afternoon there was a horrible rainstorm that fried it. That same evening, as I lamented the loss of my phone, a band of thugs kicked in the front door of our home and robbed the house while I hid behind a clothing rack, with my fried phone in hand. While most of us have dropped a phone in a sink, toilet or tub, I doubt too many folks have wished for this next product as much as I did…
Meet the Wet Smartphone Emergency kit from Dry-All, originally used to protect moisture sensitive military equipment. It has been used to keep gun safes dry and for moisture removal for hearing aids. It is now being used for drying wet cell phones, wet smart phones, wet electronic tablets, wet iPods, ipads and other electronic items. This kit absorbs all of the moisture in the wet phone quickly, allowing the phone to continue working as normal without losing your contacts, applications, pictures, or music. Woo-Hoo!

Snack Packaging Goes High Tech – Can You Hear It?
Does anyone remember Pringles? That nifty little can of neatly stacked potato-like chips, they didn’t taste like regular chips, but if you were in the mood for Pringles, nothing else would do. I haven’t had a Pringle for at least 10 years. I don’t really know why, it was nice to not have that pile of crumbs at the bottom of a greasy bag. Pringles just needed a little more jazz… They’ve been around too long, a little stale so to speak, they needed to do something fun.
Well, Pringles, is giving customers a brand new reason to love its potato crisps. With product purchase, they’re giving away a Pringles brand speaker that is designed to fit onto the top of any can of Pringles, the speaker uses the empty can to amplify the sound when attached to an MP3 player or similar personal music device. With the speaker attached to a can of Pringles, after listeners munch their chips, they can get their groove on.
It’s not so much WHAT it is, as the IDEA behind it that makes me wonder, what’s next? Is this the beginning of a new trend? Sure, it starts out with a simple can of Pringles, but who knows what this could lead to? I might just go ahead and get my Pringles speaker, then again I may just hold out for a new pretzel rod container flat screen. Now that would be really cool!
iHome iA63 App-enhanced Alarm Clock FM Radio Stereo Speaker System
Sometimes it feels that when you have seen one iPod/iPhone dock, you have seen them all. Well, despite their similarities, at least the iHome iA63 is different in some ways.
The iA63 is a “next generation app-enhanced alarm clock FM radio for the iPhone and iPod touch”. I got a chance to try it out, and the iA63 has one cool feature as it can spin the iPod/iPhone around so it can be viewed in portrait and landscape mode. Of course, I have seen a similar model from Sharper Image’s catalog.
This one also has a remote control, and a clock and alarm. The user can wake or sleep to an iPhone, iPod, or the FM radio. Nothing different there, but the iA63 is App-enhanced, which allows it to work with iHome+Radio and iHome+Sleep.
