iBike Rider Case for iPhone is space age

October 8th, 2009 by James in Audio/Video Gadgets, Mobile Phones
The iBiker Rider is not only ideal for bikers, but anyone with an iPhone.

The iBiker Rider is not only ideal for bikers, but anyone with an iPhone.

When I saw the iBike Rider case, I didn’t think of a cool iPhone accessory for bikers – even though that’s what it is – I thought what a cool space suit wearable computer accessory this is instead. And when you consider that the iPhone is just that, a computer that happens to make phone calls, it makes one wonder doesn’t it? I can see the commercials now. Walking on the moon? There’s an app for that. Searching for water on Mars? There’s an app for that…

i.VoicePRO 901 Bluetooth Headset

October 7th, 2009 by Mark R in Bluetooth, Mobile Phones

i.voicepro-901-1_I’m not one of those bluetools that has a Bluetooth headset in my ear 24/7, but I have used a Bluetooth headsets every once in a while. I had a chance to try out the iTech i.VoicePRO 901, and I can see myself keeping it in my ear from morning to night.

Fortunately, it has 100 hours of standby time for that purpose, and I’m pretty certain that I won’t be on the phone for more than 4.5 hours a day, which happens to be the limit of its talk-time.

Have you ever had a mobile device that took six to eight hours to charge for the first time? Well, the i.VoicePro took only two to three hours the first time, which is the amount of time it takes every time.

What makes the i.VoicePro different from other headsets is that it has dual microphone performance. It also has voice separation technology, so you can use this headset in a crowded room.

Kempler and Strauss launches the W PhoneWatch

October 5th, 2009 by Mark R in Audio/Video Gadgets, Mobile Phones

w_phonewatchI’m not certain how the sales of the LG G910 watch phone are doing, but Kempler & Strauss have come up with their own version of digital wrist communication with the W PhoneWatch.

The W PhoneWatch comes with a Kempler & Strauss Communicator headset, which you can see in the photo to the right of the watch. This headset syncs with the watch via Bluetooth, so you don’t have to talk to your wrist. I suppose you don’t have to use it, but only if you want to imitate Dick Tracy or Michael Knight.

Kempler & Strauss have said that the W PhoneWatch is the world’s smallest full-function quad-band GSM cellphone watch. It has a 1.5 touchscreen interface that does not require a stylus, but allows operation with the user’s fingers. That sounds a little hard to believe, considering how fat most people’s fingers are. However, if the iPhone can make a touchscreen keypad, then I’m willing to take Kempler & Strauss at their word.

AT&T, TerreStar Networks offer TerreStar Genus

September 30th, 2009 by Edwin in GPS gadgets, Mobile Phones

terrestar-genusAT&T will partner with TerreStar Networks to bring the latest integrated smartphone mobility solution known as the TerreStar Genus, where it will merge primary cellular wireless connectivity with the ability to connect to a satellite network as a backup, achieving this using a singular phone number on a solitary smartphone device. This integrated mobile communications solution is a two-edged sword, depending on how you look at it. For those who tend to travel a lot and have to traverse through difficult-to-reach areas, the satellite connection will definitely come in handy during an emergency, but for corporate warriors, woe to you if your superior sends the TerreStar Genus as a “gift” to you – it would mean you no longer have any excuse for not being able to receive a phone call or text message due to poor reception in your home.
