USB Alien With Creepy Illuminated Tongue

November 20th, 2009 by Ally in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

alien_usb_red_mouth

The Christmas season is coming up and nothing says Merry Christmas like a creepy novelty USB gadget.  If you know someone that’s still a huge fan of Alien, this creepy little guy may be pointless, but at least he’s cool.  He does actually do a few tricks after he’s plugged into your computer, but he doesn’t actually store any of your data.

Imation offers Pro WX first wireless USB external hard drive

November 20th, 2009 by Edwin in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

imation-pro-wx

Imation has always been at the forefront of things where storage medium is concerned, and their latest release is yet another first (and possibly another feather in the company’s cap) – the Pro WX wireless USB hard drive. Based on Imation’s platform of external hard drives, the Imation Pro WX drive – despite not being tethered to your computer, will still be able to offer the convenience of fast data transfer rates, speed and capacity required in today’s graphics and data intensive environments, maxing out at 1.5TB of storage space. Great news for everyone, but we can’t wait for the next generation device already which should be in the works to go along with the USB 3.0 when it rolls out.

Lenovo ThinkPad X100e

November 19th, 2009 by Mark R in PC Gadgets

thinkpad-x100e-specs-01-thumb-468x301-28733Have you ever noticed that some of the latest technology just slowly leaks and leaks, and so by the time it is finally announced, it really isn’t that big of a surprise? For example, that elusive Mac Tablet we’ve been hearing so much about, and now the latest ThinkPad from Lenovo.

The X100e has an 11.6 inch display, and it has an AMD Neo processor as well as wireless connectivity options like WWAN, 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, and Bluetooth. The whole thing weighs about 3 pounds and includes a webcam and many other lovable pictures. As for the battery life, it’s pretty good at 5.1 hours.

So how much is it? It will be about $500, and available in white, black, and red. I believe that the release date is planned for January.

MSI unveils Wind Top AE2220

November 19th, 2009 by Edwin in Office Gadgets, PC Gadgets

windtop-ae2220

Saving space seems to be all the rage these days, thanks to the miniaturization of devices and machines around us. Take a look at your cellphone – it probably packs in a much faster processor compared to your desktop a few years back, right? The desktop PC has also quietly undergone its own revolution, with nettops making more and more of a presence (or nuisance, depending on how you look at it) while all-in-one PCs are also catching up in popularity simply because most of them are aesthetically pleasing while packing enough punch to deliver the processing power required for basic computing tasks such as surfing, checking e-mail as well as the occasional spot of casual gaming. The latest all-in-one PC to hit the market would be the Wind Top AE2220 from MSI, where it is now available Stateside as MSI’s flagship model in this department. The AE2220 extends the award-winning Wind Top line with new levels of performance, usability, energy-efficiency, and functionality in an affordable, stylish and eco-friendly design for today’s PC-centric families. To know more about the AE2220, head on after the jump.

Portable Laptop Stand by AViiQ

November 18th, 2009 by Mark R in PC Gadgets

Aviiq use itThis next device isn’t really technical, and I’m not even certain to classify it as a gadget. However, it certainly makes using laptop and netbook gadgets easier.

Yeah, this is another low-tech laptop stand, like the Cushdesk from Belkin. The AViiQ Portable Laptop Stand is very different than most laptop stands because it can conveniently fold up.

According to AViiQ, it is made of Hylite, a composite material of aluminum sheets bonded to a polypropylene core. This allows the material to fold like origami.

Color Change USB Hurricane Lamp

November 18th, 2009 by Ally in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

Color-changing-USB-powered-hurricane-lamp

I’m all about gadgets that are made to look old but still have that new technology we all know and love.  Yet the USB gadgets made to look like older ones just seem a bit like cheap impostors.  However, if you don’t want to pay the price for an expensive antique that runs just like the old ones always have, these would work out great.  Especially since they’re plenty affordable.

Samsung Go now from AT&T

November 17th, 2009 by Edwin in PC Gadgets

samsung-go

AT&T and Samsung Electronics have joined forces to bring the new Samsung Go to the masses, where this compact and lightweight netbook will boast instant access to broadband speeds powered by US’ fastest 3G network (or so they claim – as long as you don’t live or work in some place that is out of reach of their 3G signals, of course), where it will also be powered by the latest Microsoft Windows 7 Starter Edition operating system to get you started right out of the box. With more and more netbooks tying up with mobile carriers, we hope to see a decent price war go on so that us consumers will be able to benefit from all that in a win-win situation. More on the Samsung Go right after the jump.

Disney themed USB 2.0 Cable

November 17th, 2009 by Ally in Childrens Gadgets, PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

disney_cables

I’ve always known that Disney was capable of slapping their brand name on just about anything.  I just never really expected to see Disney themed USB cables.  However, they’ve officially done it and in a way that doesn’t look too bad.  Thankfully they also don’t jack up the price to a horrible amount either, making them parent friendly as well as great for the kids.
