The IPEVO P2V USB Webcam

November 3rd, 2009 by Ally in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

p2v-web-cam_I9j95_54

Most webcams only tilt just slighty, well this IPEVO camera actually allows for quite a bit of versatility.  If you like to create a lot of different videos that require more than the usual camera, this would work out great.  It’s multi-jointed, so it can tilt and bend to your heart’s content.  Sure, you could rig the one you own with a makeshift stand, but this one won’t start to droop slowly throughout the video as the tape starts to give.

Restman computer armrest series

October 30th, 2009 by Edwin in Office Gadgets, PC Gadgets

restmanOffice drones who sit in front of the computer all day long will need to make sure that their working environment is conducive and safe enough so that they won’t suffer from long-term conditions such as RSI or carpal tunnel syndrome. With that in mind, the Restman computer armrest series is touted to offer comfortable, ergonomic computer arm supports that make sure the forearm and elbow will obtain ample support whenever the keyboard and mouse are used. Currently available in Japan and Germany, there are three models to choose from :-

  • Restman 1 Double attachment arm support with mouse pad that can be attached to the desk or the chair.
  • Restman 2 A simple, comfortable swiveling arm support that works!
  • Restman M Computer arm support with a detachable massager. Yes, this is the worlds’ first and only arm support of its kind!

A detachable massager, eh? That sounds pretty interesting! Gamers who spend hours honing their skills might also want to consider this, but expect your street cred to fall if your friends discover your comfortable ’secret’…

If you’re more of a bright summery kind of girl, then these butterfly USB hubs would probably blend in great with your style.  Personally, it just makes me miss the summer that is already over and hope for the one that is nowhere near close.  However, anyone can still appreciate the bright cheerful colors these butterflies come in.  Especially since they don’t just come in the stereotypical girl color of bright pink.

Concept Spider Computer from Sony Ericsson

October 29th, 2009 by Mark R in Conceptual Gadgets, PC Gadgets

spider_1Take a good look at this potato-masher on a tripod. It looks like a three-legged mechanical spider, doesn’t it? Just to let you know, these legs are not designed for moving, so you can forget your science fiction dreams, for now.

In fact, there is probably more science fact than fiction in this particular device. This was on display at the Taiwan broadband show by Ericsson to show what a computer might look like in the future.

That’s right, this device that you see here is a computer. Actually, it is more of a model of what the computer could look like, and there is a working model of this product after the jump. There is also video of it after the jump as well.

Griffin Technology wants you to Simplifi your life

October 27th, 2009 by Mark R in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets, iPod gadgets

griffin_simplifiI believe that it was Henry David Thoreau who wrote in Walden: “Out life is frittered away by detail…Simplify, simplify, simplify!” Of course, if he really wanted to take his own advice, he would have written “simplify” only once.

One of the things in life that really need to be simplified is our desktops. Many of us have all sorts of accessories to our PC like memory card readers and iPods, and the Simplifi is designed to take up a lot less real estate on the desk.
