Weird Gizmos

Are you bored out of your mind while waiting for your doc? Don’t have anything to do or fiddle with? Well, here’s something that you might be interested in. Made by Prezzy Box, the Oidz magnets are very fascinating indeed.

The cool little buggers are actually very powerful magnets that attract the user. According to the company website, even words can’t describe the sheer joy that the user gets out of these magnets. Still wondering what’s so special about them?

Well, try throwing them up in the air. You will see them coming down to earth and in the process of doing so, they will give out a weird but interesting sound. These guys look very much like meteors. Anyway, going back to fiddling, you will find these things handy if you have a habit of fiddling with things during a phone conversation.

The magnets are made out of hematite. Equipped with strong magnetic materials, I am positive that these things will perform some unique stunts. Measuring just 6×2-cm, these cute toys are available at the Prezzybox site for only 8.95 pounds. So what are you still waiting for? Get yourself one today.

This Wheel is not Built for the Road

An electronic wheel that will steer you clear from troubles! In your dreams pal. I wish somebody had come up with a brilliant idea that incorporates Artificial Intelligence in tires so that accidents can be avoided. “High hopes,” my friend says, “you better concentrate on improving your driving skills.” Who acknowledges great minds these days, anyway!

Well, for now let us just talk about this abstract art, oops… electronic ingenuity. It did raise my hopes of driving on intelligent wheels. However it turned out to be just another design innovation.

The Wheel Computer, that’s what they call it, looks like a wheel but doesn’t act like one. The reason is it is designed for your table and not for the asphalt. On second thoughts, I reckon this device resembles one of those secret microphone systems used in detective movies. This gadget is a fully-functional computer with a CD-ROM drive and some really flashy LEDs. Now, I know why designers make bad drivers.

Whenever there is a new electronic item in my house, my immediate reaction is to run for its bubble wrap covering before someone else gets his hands on it.

And I’m sure no one can resist the temptation of popping those bubbles.

Bandai Asovision of Japan has indeed hit the soft spot of the bubble wrap lovers by introducing PuchiPuchi- a bubble wrap popping simulator.

PuchiPuchi features 8 buttons which are filled with air, and when you press them you achieve the same satisfaction that you get by popping those real bubbles. To make the experience more realistic, the gadget comes with a speaker which makes the popping sound.

To keep your interest alive, the gadget includes 8 special sounds like ‘door chime’ and ’sexy voice’ which comes as a bonus popping sound after every 100 pops.

The PuchiPuchi is the size of a keychain and perfect to carry along with you in your pocket.

A Korean company is trying to cash in on the euphoria that is gaining momentum ahead of the release of much-expected Transformers movie. Gundam speakers, lets say, is an average attempt on their part. Why? Two reasons: for one, Gundam isn’t even related to the Transformers, and two, the speakers are low on features.

Once you look beyond the fact that the flaps behind Gundam’s head open up to reveal a pair of stereo speakers, there is nothing left to be exited about. So what if they are battery powered (2AA batteries.) Their sound quality is, to put mildly, poor. The only solace is that being battery powered, you can at least carry them around to attach to your iPod whenever and wherever you want to.

Strictly for nerds who are die-hard Gundam fans. Choose from amongst the three available colors: Full Color, Clear, and Event. No info about their price and/or availability. Maybe for Koreans only.

Lemme make one thing clear, I’m all for the innovative gadgets. Sometimes though, a product comes along that seeks to push the edge a bit too far for my liking. I mean, yes, one would like to see new features added to an existing product but not at the cost of features that are quintessential to its existence.

So what is the point of adding dialing buttons to a device that is going to be attached to your ears all the time? Darfon obviously thinks otherwise. It has produced a Bluetooth device that has got its own, believe it or not, keypad. All this so that there is no need to take out your Bluetooth-enabled phone from your pocket. Equipped with Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, you can make the calling operations from this headset alone.

Pricing and availability are still a mystery, and I would hope it remains so.

The design has basic flaws that the company apparently wants us to overlook. Firstly, who would rather take the headset off from the ear instead of reaching out for the cell phone? Secondly, for all its ingenuity, the device lacks a display panel, so we would never know if the number has been keyed in correctly. Last but not the least; the headset is bigger than some of the sleek mobiles out there.

The verdict – a strict no-no.

Just browse through the awesome pictures and enjoy the techno-delicacy.

Bon Appetit.

Well, I’ll tell you a way by which you can ‘alarm’ your mornings with an innovative time-piece trying to wake you up. Now your mornings will begin with action!

Multifunctional furniture is the talk of the town these days. People are thinking it to be more convenient and a better option over the conventional and the usual conformist form of our household furniture. So a better option seems to be this 15″ TV/DVD player with a 1200 watt microwave oven as an add-on feature.

Now the household chores would never be left out because of the TV programs, wow too good as a product, quite innovative infact. I am surely thinking of a time in the near future when these types of products will be handy and useful for the common man. Surely the multifunctional furniture may give a makeover to our conventional form of furniture.

It may look like it has something different in it but if you give it a much closer look then you may also get in a bad mood.

First of all the size of this weird device is a big problem as no one would like to have such a big device attached to a finger and the things get worse when you get to know that it is not a wireless mouse.

Secondly the designers should also have thought that how will a person use a keyboard when this is on?

You may try it with different fingers but after some time you surely will get back to a more traditional mouse…!

Let me tell you this keyboard is not for computer beginners.

Das Keyboard thinks that if you have to speed up your typing skills then you ought to do that without looking at the keys.

Das Keyboard also has done the same; they have developed a keyboard with no letters printed on the keys. This is to ensure that when you type you don’t get any assistance from the keyboard itself.

Das Keyboard also boasts of mechanical gold plated key switches which gives the keys a very long life of 50 million strokes.

This is the weirdest keyboard that I have come across in my life. We usually find keyboards that have weird shapes and sizes, but this is without any printed key letters…!
