Ecopod e1 Home Recycling Center brings green initiative home
The world’s getting warmer with all the gas guzzlers that are sitting in our garage, so why not bring some recycling initiative home with the Ecopod e1 Home Recycling Center in order to ease the load on Mother Nature? Designed by BMW Designworks, the Ecopod looks like a high-tech waste bin but it is actually a pretty simple device by itself. This Home Recycling Center enables you to dispose of an aluminum can or plastic bottle through the top opening, where stepping on the step at the bottom will compact the recently disposed trash into a more manageable size.

Hannspree LCD TV aesthetically pleasing
Hannspree does produce some pretty nifty LCD TVs, but so far the ones that they are famous for would be those plush-covered LCD TVs that are meant for a single person or two pairs of eyes at max. The company is now looking at the bigger picture with the Hannspree Lounge model that comes surrounded by a curved panel of faux wood, making it a totally different proposition when it comes to positioning and placing this LCD TV in the living room. This particular form factor will surely defer anyone from hanging up this 37″ High-Definition ready display on a wall, but instead placing it in the middle of the living room where everybody can watch their favorite movies and shows in picture perfect quality.

Trust WiFi Hot Spot Finder
We have already mentioned a similar cool gadget as the Trust WiFi spot finder, it was back on February and it was called the TrendNet – besides finding hot spots it also worked as a wireless USB adaptor so it could recharge itself. While the Trust does not have that recharge capability, it has other valuable details like being cheaper.

- The good part:
Most people that use laptops on the wild outdoors environment like to be connected to the internet by using WiFi hot spots, but in order to know the existence of a hot spot they have to use the laptop – first remove from the case and than turn it on. For some people this can be considered a lot of work, and if after all the work there is no hot spot, it is a shituation (read a shit + situation).

Dogs minus the maintenance
How many of us like the idea of having our very own dog, and yet do not want to carry out maintenance tasks like bathing it, walking the mutt, playing catch (strange how a frisbee can have such a stranglehold on a dog’s attention), and cleaning up after it’s poop while doing the neighborhood rounds? All that is now possible with the Interactive Street Muttz that look extremely adorable with round,black eyes and an expression that is guaranteed to melt even the most stone cold heart.

A4Tech’s Battery Free Wireless Mouse
The only catch with modern day wireless mice is that you need to have some sort of battery, which means you either have to remember to charge it, or remember to buy extra batteries. Both are hassles. Not anymore though, because A4Tech has come out with a battery-free wireless mouse. And it actually works, although there is a catch.
