I love wireless for the freedom it gives me. Without having to tether to my desktop, I can work in the living room while my wife and son enjoy their evening. Or, I can go to the local Starbucks, enjoy a Mocha frap while I check my email. Beautiful. But wireless printing has always been the one piece of the puzzle for me. Being able to print without having to connect to that printer is my holy grail and Epson has the map to get me there … and in glorious color, too.
I’m currently watching Dragons Den and have just seen this cool product/invention the Magic Whiteboard.
The Magic Whiteboard, is a roll of 25 whiteboards that can be carried around and whipped out as necessary.
It’s perfect for breakout sessions and group work. It encourages delegates to interact with each other and contribute more. You can quickly and easily capture learning. It’s great for presentations, team meetings and ideas generation.
- 1. Magic - Sticks to any hard flat surface (using static), plain paper also sticks to it without the need for tape, Bluetac or glue. Teams can quickly and easily fold it up and take the sheets away with them.
- 2. No marks - are left on walls. It’s simple, cheap, clean and leaves no mess.
- 3.Erasable/Reusable - write on it using dry white markers, wipe clean, and use it again. It provides a cheaper alternative to flipcharts and is reusable. It is also recyclable and environmentally friendly.
- 4. Multipurpose - use at conferences, training events, for presentations and for team meetings. Any team will find this indispensable.
- 5. Portable and lightweight - perfect for training and conference events. Everyone will be impressed. You don’t need to use a flipchart stand to show your work.
You can buy the magic whiteboard for 25 UKP.
Canon is a household name when it coems to printers, and this time round we have a couple of those on parade for the masses - the PIXMAP MP480 and the PIXMA MP190. Both of these will fall under the all-in-one fold, featuring printing, scanning and copying functionality as well as interesting and practical features such as a new Auto Scan Mode that detects the type of document being scanned – Photo, Post Card, Business Card, Magazine, Newspaper, Document – and is smart enough to crop and save files to PDF or JPEG format based on image type automatically. That surely takes out a whole lot of guesswork, and you don’t have to tear your hair out in frustration as you try to teach your aged dad or mom on the finer points in scanning along with the plethora of settings most scanning software comes with.
If you really despise having to get up and go to the water cooler all of the time, then why not bring a miniaturized version with you? Hopefully, it doesn’t bring people crowding around your desk though. It will hold 2 liters of water or eight glasses. Although the photo does feature a water cooler trimmed in pink, they don’t actually have that color available. They do say that they have other colors, but don’t bother to mention what ones or give the option to select a color upon checkout.
As the price of acceptable hardware keeps decreasing, we pile up more and more displays and peripherals for our gaming and surfing experience. The only problem is that we are quickly running out of room to house all of our gadgets.
Owning multiple displays is no longer simply a luxury for the most hardcore and wealthy of geeks. Slowly, but surely, multiple display and peripherals set-ups are moving their way into the mainstream. With the lowering prices of hardware comes the lowering prices of hardware space. In this case, the Pro Gaming Table, which features tons of extra shelf space for a fraction of the expected price.
If you work in an office setting, then you probably use a lot of highlighters and USB Flash drives. As with all great inventions, someone eventually gets smart and decides to combine two great things together, and the result in this case is the High Dexx USB Flash Drive.
Three highlighters in blue, yellow, and green combine with an orange one that is actually a USB Flash Drive. The orange guy can plug into the stand, and this stand plugs right into the computer.
Sometimes I’m amazed at the sheer amount of Lego inspired gadgets and even furniture that pops up. Well here’s one more for you and this one comes in a chic smoky white form. For once, this one won’t actually cost you a small fortune either. So many vendors take advantage of the fact that Legos have so much geek appeal that no matter the price, someone will buy it. This light actually has an extra perk thrown in. It has an extra layer that can be snapped off or on that has little cups to hold your pens and other little things you keep on your desk.
When I first saw the IOCELL Contents Phone, I thought I was looking at something designed by Bang and Olufsen. I mean it has that cool grey color, plus a very blue look on the numbers. It also has a very artistic aesthetic, putting the receiver on the bottom of the phone and not the top that is interesting, to say the least. Not only that, it is a very practical device.
The IOCELL contents phone has a hard disk drive that allows the user to record conversations. The user can then download those audio files to his or her computer, and play them on an MP3 player or the Internet. We can only hope that there is no privileged information being shared.
Other features of the IOCELL are voice guidance, and there is apparently a way to put music files on the phone, as well as a way to put music on hold. You can also put in background music, but we don’t have too many details on that.
Of course, there are other features that you would find on other phones, such as a speakerphone, or an immediate call-in emergency.
The IOCELL content phone is available at the IOCELL website, but I have not seen a price. In fact, the site is translated from the Korean, so I’m not certain if this IOCELL content phone is available everywhere.
