			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.coolest-gadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/satec.jpg" alt="" title="satec" width="450" height="530" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-65306" />It can be safe to assume that we all have used a smartphone at one point or another in our lives, in addition to owning one. Thanks to Apple&#8217;s super effective marketing strategy, we were also persuaded to jump aboard the tablet bandwagon, which also cannibalized into the netbook market which was originally thought to be the next big thing since sliced bread. Well, since so many of us now also are in possession of a tablet device, be it running on Android or iOS, the third party accessories market has also exploded in a big way. </p>
<p>With so many players in the market, how does one tell what is good quality or not from the other? Satechi is a name that has been trusted by many for a long time now, and their latest release will target those who own smartphones and tablets &#8211; in the form of the Satechi SCH-121 Cup Holder Mount.</p>
<p>Not only is it user friendly, the Satechi SCH-121 Cup Holder Mount is also convenient to use as well, as it delivers a non-obtrusive solution for safer hands-free calling and navigation &#8211; as long as your tablet is no smaller than 7&#8243; and no larger than 10&#8243;, while most modern smartphones ought to play with it nice without any hiccups whatsoever. Two cradles will be able to hold both devices depending on which one you want to use at the moment, where the tablet cradle enables stable and secure mounting with full access to all buttons and functions on any tablet, while the case-friendly smartphone cradle will ensure your iPhone or Android device fits in perfectly without being tossed about when you turn a sharp corner at full throttle.</p>
<p>As for the SCH-121 Cup Holder Mount’s flexibility, its cradles are able to rotate 360 degrees so that the tablet or smartphone can be adjusted to resemble landscape or portrait mode. The hinges on the mount can be rotated up to 180 degrees for vertical or horizontal height adjustment.  Not only that, there is an expandable base that makes sure it can drop in nicely into any size cup holder. If you travel a whole lot and use your smartphone or tablet as a GPS system, then the $29.99 Satechi SCH-121 Cup Holder Mount would make a decent purchase.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-65260" href="http://www.coolest-gadgets.com/20120208/bike-scooter-ezyroller/ez/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-65260" title="ez" src="http://cdn.coolest-gadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ez.png" alt="" width="284" height="142" /></a></p>
<p>Okay, so I admit that I&#8217;m a huge fan of electronics, obviously. My favorite things in this world are animated and have bells and whistles, but I have to say, that every now and then, I remember being a kid and I remember having fun that you used to have to work for. The kind of fun that made you tired at the end of the day, the kind of fun that made you excited about weekends.</p>
<p>Well I&#8217;d like to introduce you to some new fangled, old-school fun, welcome EzyRoller, a low to the ground ride on toy that combines the control of a bike and the fun of a scooter. Not a luge, not a bike and not a scooter, the EzyRoller moves like a snake all without chains or pedals simply by using easy right-left leg movements. Just like in the old days there are no batteries and the EzyRoller moves and turns silently, unless of course you count the screams and giggles. </p>
<p>There doesn&#8217;t seem to be too many things out there that are exactly like the EzyRoller, after reading several reviews it is obvious that these steel framed ride-ons are pretty safe and durable. EzyRollers use top quality materials and engineering. They are suitable for use on flat and smooth outdoor or indoor surfaces, and it is highly suggested you avoid hilly terrain. The EzyRoller is meant for kids from 4 to 14 years of age.</p>
<p>So I think I&#8217;m going to get my kiddo one of these and see if we can get her unplugged for a weekend, I&#8217;m sure she&#8217;ll love it, and it sure would be nice to see her fall asleep from sheer exhaustion for a change&#8230; who knows, playing around outside might just catch on&#8230;</p>

After all, how many millionaires do you know carry a Vertu in their pockets, where they instead prefer to use a regular smartphone? Enter the <a href='http://www.coolest-gadgets.com/og.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hammacher.com%2FProduct%2FDefault.aspx%3Fsku%3D12127%26promo%3DCategory-NewArrivals%26catid%3D60&#038;post=65139'>Genuine PT Boat</a> that might just tickle your fancy, although it costs a whopping <a href='http://www.coolest-gadgets.com/og.php?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hammacher.com%2FProduct%2FDefault.aspx%3Fsku%3D12127%26promo%3DCategory-NewArrivals%26catid%3D60&#038;post=65139'>$1,000,000</a> &#8211; loose change if you are an oil oligarch. </p>
<p>The PT-728, a 66 and a half year old restored Patrol Torpedo Boat that hails from World War II, and is fully seaworthy steel. The keel was laid on August 10, 1945, and she remains one of the dozen PT boats left in the world. &#8220;Armed&#8221; (all weapons have been deactivated for obvious reasons) with a single .50- and two twin .50-caliber Browning machine gun stations, it will also feature an aft 20mm Oerlikon cannon, a quartet of tubes which will hold a Mark VIII torpedo each, and a couple of depth charge launchers. She is able to move around at speeds of up to 42 knots.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.coolest-gadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/triton-33003-submarine.jpg" alt="" title="triton-33003-submarine" width="450" height="254" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-65143" />Being wealthy certainly opens up many doors when it comes to doing something. For example, if you are extremely rich, then going for a holiday offers an abundance of choices as your money can fly you anywhere, letting you stay in the best hotels and sup on the most delectable dishes without worrying about whether you are able to make next month&#8217;s mortgage. Well, having said that, the same principle also applies when it comes to your mode of transportation &#8211; you have stretch limos, sports cars, private jets, helicopters, yachts, and a new and emerging (pun not intended) category &#8211; submarines. </p>
<p>Most yachts these days also come with a submarine attached to them &#8211; and it is certainly growing in terms of popularity. It seems that an anonymous billionaire has decided to pick up one of these puppies as his personal underwater ride, choosing the Triton 3300/3 in the end. The name of the submarine does give the game away somewhat in terms of its performance ability, and also denotes that this is the third of its kind to enter production.</p>
<p>What does the Triton 3300/3 submarine offer on paper? Apart from its ability to ferry 3 passengers underwater, it also boasts what some deem to be the largest acrylic transparent dome where the pilot cabinet is concerned. This offers a fantastic 360-degree view of the aquatic life on the outside, and you need not fret about ending up in a watery grave as the transparent dome is strong enough to withstand high pressure. Previous experiments did show that diving to 3,000 feet is not an issue for this yellow submarine, and the entire body shape with its vertical orientation has been uniquely crafted to make sure it can drop to such depths rapidly, while re-emerging at a similar pace as and when required. </p>
<p>No idea on how much something like this will cost, but it is definitely expensive to say the least, and those of us who are wage earners can only dream about it, while the uber rich can always settle for different modes of transport.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.coolest-gadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ghost-ship.jpg" alt="" title="ghost-ship" width="450" height="252" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-64415" />Stealth technology is always fascinating to read about, and to be attacked by an &#8220;invisible&#8221; enemy is one of the greatest fears of any military. After all, this is the modern day water ninja &#8211; the GHOST marine platform that hails from New Hampshire&#8217;s Juliet Marine Systems (JMS). It does not have any special cloaking ability up to the par of the X-Men&#8217;s heavily modified SR-71 Blackbird, but what this particular watercraft does, and does well is this &#8211; it is invisible to enemy ships&#8217; radar, effectively allowing it to trawl the country&#8217;s waterways while keeping threats away at bay. </p>
<p>Resembling the love child of a stealth jet fighter and an attack helicopter, this one was specially developed for possible use by the U.S. Navy. It is touted to be faster and more economical compared to current military vessels, and according to JMS, GHOST is the world&#8217;s first super-cavitating watercraft.</p>
<p>Now, super-cavitating is a pretty bombastic word to begin with, but fret not &#8211; there is always an explanation over here at Coolest Gadgets. Supercavitation basically involves an object surrounding by a bubble of gas, enabling it to pass through bodies of water in a near friction-less environment. Where GHOST is concerned, a couple of submerged buoyant tubular foils will get the job done. No idea on how the process works in detail, but logic dictates that the foils were specially designed in a manner that when GHOST&#8217;s gas turbines thrust it forward, water will be deflected outward at the front of each foil, hence the &#8220;envelope&#8221; which closes right behind it.</p>
<p>JMS has high hopes for GHOST, stating that it &#8220;is a combination aircraft/boat that has been designed to fly through an artificial underwater gaseous environment that creates 900 times less hull friction than water.&#8221; No idea on whether that means 900 times less friction is created by GHOST, or is it a target that the company intends to achieve in the long run. A total of three crew can fit into the GHOST at once, and its main purpose is to patrol the perimeter of naval fleets. As for its weapons payload, it purportedly carries &#8220;thousands of pounds of weapons, including Mark 48 torpedoes&#8221; in an internal weapons bay. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://cdn.coolest-gadgets.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Tour.jpg" alt="" title="Tour" width="215" height="175" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-64366" />I suppose that the Segway industry really has yet to take off, but I like the idea of personal mobility.  I suppose I would have to group the Trikke with Segway-style products, but the Trikke has three wheels and not two self-balancing ones.  </p>
<p>I got a chance to ride a Trikke at CES 2012, and I found that it was about as difficult to learn as a self-balancing motorcycle.  At first, I was a little hesitant to make any sharp turns, but I found that with a little practice, the Trikke is highly maneuverable.  </p>
<p>The maximum speed on it is 17 mph, but you&#8217;ll probably cruise along at about 12 mph.  It is completely electirc with zero emissions, and is good for 24 miles per charge.  The battery just plugs into the wall, and it is easily swappable.  </p>
<p>The Trikke can fold down to a smaller shape, sort of like a stroller, so it is easily portable.  It really does have a lot of personal mobility uses like security, tourism, and just getting around conveniently overall.  </p>
<p>As you might have guessed, this fun doesn&#8217;t come cheap.  The 36 Volt lite costs $1,299.99, the 3G Volt costs $1,899.99, and the 48 Volt costs $2,199.99.  You can check out all the individual features on the <a href="http://www.trikke.com/ev/buynow.html" target="_blank">official website</a>.
