It used to be that in order to read the fine print you just picked up a magnifying glass or even a pair of reading glasses.  That takes far too much effort though, plus it’s just not the same unless you get to use a gadget to do even the most simple tasks.  Well now instead of using those non-electronic devices, you can use the Wired Electronic Reading Aid.  It’ll make the print easier to read and you’ll even get to use your TV.

iMAT from SkyCross

November 13th, 2009 by Edwin in Electronic Gadgets, PC Gadgets

skycross-imat

The introduction of Wi-Fi cards and chipsets in notebooks alongside smartphones have been a great boon since their inception, and many strides have been made since then with Bluetooth functionality being thrown into the bigger picture as well. While the majority of today’s chipsets are full well capable of supporting both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity simultaneously, the antenna has proved to be the industry’s roadblock. SkyCross aims to change that scenario with the iMAT, being the industry’s first single-antenna solution which is capable of offering over 35 dB of isolation between Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to enable coexistence even in compact devices including netbooks.

AquaPod Launches a 2-liter bottle very high in the air

November 12th, 2009 by Mark R in Toys

aquapod-bottle-launcher-boxI will honestly say that I was this close to giving the AquaPod a bad review. Part of it was because I had a hard time getting it working, but it was overcome once I got it right and saw that bottle shoot 100 feet in the air.

Okay, I didn’t get an exact measurement of its height, but it was enough to impress me. And if I, as an adult, am impressed, just think of how much a child would be. By the way, this is definitely a toy that you want to use with adult supervision, for reasons that I will explain after the jump.

Hands on with the Sansa Clip+

November 12th, 2009 by Mark R in Audio/Video Gadgets

clipplusbigSure, the iPod Shuffle was made for those who just want to play MP3s, and don’t want to have to deal with the price of more elegant models like the Touch. However, the Shuffles are pretty expensive in and of themselves compared to MP3 Players like the Creative Zen Stone and the Sansa Clip Plus.

I had a chance to try out the Sansa Clip Plus, and I have to admit, it was much easier to use than an iPod Shuffle. For starters, I didn’t have to deal with iTunes, which really eats up a lot of processing on my computer.

In fact, since the Clip Plus has a card slot, I could just put all my tunes on a microSDHC card and put it in to listen to my tunes. I could also get one of those slotRadio and slotMusic SD cards if I just wanted to hear some definite hits.
