Panasonic Toughbook H1 obtains Gobi Certification
The Verizon Wireless network will be offering a new notebook for the masses that is much tougher than your average model, and we suspect even able to withstand environments where the normal nerd would faint by then. We’re talking about the Panasonic Toughbook H1 mobile clinical assistant (MCA) that has recently received Gobi certification for use on the Verizon Wireless network. Due to its relatively tiny form factor, extremely light chassis and a reasonable bunch of built-in specifications and features, the Toughbook H1 ends up being a rather attractive solution for those who are knee deep in mobile healthcare environments such as EMS, mobile blood banks and home health workers. Not only that, healthcare professionals who tend to do plenty of traveling between offices, patient homes and hospitals will realize just what a handy tool the Verizon Wireless’ Mobile Broadband is when used in conjunction with the Toughbook H1, allowing one to reduce down time while increasing overall productivity despite being physically removed from traditional healthcare facilities.

Electronic Breast Enhancer is the new Bust Must
I usually don’t cover products like the Electric Bust Enhancer, but I or someone else has covered all the other coolest gadgets for this Friday.
What you are seeing there are two devices that a lady sticks in her bra cup, and then it massages. Apparently, this soft vibration keeps breasts healthy, and protects “against age and gravity”. According to the Uxsight web site, a lot of women have seen the results quite quickly, and is “enjoyable for the women”.
Ye-e-a-ah. I’m not certain I should be covering this, but who am I to crown myself the king of prudes? Anyway, each of those cups is battery powered with an AG13 cell, and there doesn’t seem to be a warning about wearing these too much.

DuoFertility guarantees baby or your money back
Folks who are looking to conceive and have plenty of trouble doing so can always check out the DuoFertility gizmo that comes with a money-back guarantee, which is pretty surprising since not many people/parties are willing to include a guarantee in their products these days. The guarantee is good for a year, where they claim that you can always get your money back if you and your partner do not end up with a bundle of joy within that period of time. The entire package will comprise of ovulation detectors made from rubberized plastic which are then stuck below a woman’s arm near her bra strap. This is made possible thanks to an adhesive patch that covers the entire sensor. The sensor will hold a temperature probe and memory chip which will then keep track of essential data every few seconds. The wireless data reader will break down what it has gathered, translating them to a user-friendly piece of information that includes temperature readings as well as an ovulation diary so that one can always do the horizontal hokey-pokey where chance of conceiving is at its highest.

Philips develops roadside drug test
One quick blow on a device and cops can find out just how much alcohol you’ve consumed. Sadly though, so far they haven’t had a roadside way to test for drugs. Which means cops have to drag in people that they suspect to be using drugs. Well that will be changing at some point in the somewhat near future. Instead of dragging people down to the station for a test, Philips has a test they’ve developed to help cops out on the side of the road.

The Eyezone Eye Massager relieves sore eyes
Although it’d be nice to be able to just go off and get a massage on a regular basis, it just doesn’t usually seem to work out. Be it due to a busy schedule or just not enough cash flow to be able to afford it. Which is why at home massagers can be found in just about any possible form you could think up. Some are extravagant and nowhere near affordable, others are smaller and won’t break the bank. Thankfully this eye massager is one of the cheaper ones out there.

Sound Wave Neurosurgery
I’m sure all of you have seen Ghostbusters, a movie with jokes that never get old, even after 25 years. There was one line I remember that isn’t quoted as often as “He slimed me”. It’s when Bill Murray says to Harold Ramis: “Hey, this reminds me of the time you tried to drill a hole in your head, remember?” To which Ramis replies: “That would have worked if you hadn’t stopped me.”
That’s all we hear of that incident during that film. Still, the idea of drilling someone in the head to cure them of ills goes back to ancient times. Fortunately, High-intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) beams can do the same thing, with less, ahem, penetration.
All one needs is an MRI machine and ultrasonic device, and doctors have a way of pinpointing malignant areas with soundwaves and burning them off. It has already been used to remove benign tumors in the uterus, and it appears that it can do the same for the breasts and the brain.
