Tentacles

UK manufacturer VADO has just announced this unique showerhead that has 6 independent flexible tentacles, each of which is its own water head. Named Sculpture (we would have preferred Hydra or Medusa), it can be mounted either from the ceiling of the shower/bath or on the wall. VADO makes faucets, showers, kitchens and accessories. and [...]

The name Shredder has always been associated with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' nemesis, mainly due to the diet of cartoon in the era I grew up in, but as one enters adulthood, one will realize that shredders aren't out there to take over the world, but more likely cover up your tracks of documents. This time round, the Aleratec DVD/CD Shredder XC does what it says - shredding whatever optical discs that you own so that data within cannot be read or retrieved, attempting to do so would be placing yourself in the shoes of all the king's horses and his men in piecing Humpty Dumpty back together again. Expect the Aleratec DVD/CD Shredder XC to retail for $74.99.

post from Ubergizmo on 08 December 2009 11:40:28 PM. © Ubergizmo
The Projectiondesign F35 is capable of throwing a 65-feet wide image for a truly enormous display - hopefully your abode has enough room to see whatever image projected in its full glory. Boasting an astounding 2,560 × 1,600 resolution, this is the first projector of its kind to achieve such a level, pitting in on par with larger LCD monitors where resolution count is concerned. Apart from that, the F35 can also support 720p and 1080i, and is capable of accepting input from DVI-D, dual HDMI 1.3, dual VGA and component. No idea on pricing, but if you've got to ask, chances are you can't afford one.

Wish that your keyboard at home had a little bit more organic feel to it? Why not take matter into your own hands literally, as what Matthias did for his Commodore 64 keyboard. The classic keyboard now comes encased in beautiful wood, and is guaranteed to elicit the question, "Where did you buy that from?" from your visitors.

Texas Instruments is the one behind the projector industry right from the very beginning, and they have now come up with the Brightboxe projector that targets gamers, where it can hook up to virtually any current game console despite being diminutive enough in size to qualify as a pico projector. You won't be able to enjoy your full HD games with this though, since it maxes out at 640 x 480 resolution, and you'll need to play in a relatively dark room due to its 500:1 contrast ratio. Features include the use of RGB LED lamps and the ability to throw images up to 100” diagonally. No word on availability, but it is tipped to retail for $199.

Lin Ring had a $14,600 surgical fingerprint switching procedure which managed to bypass security scanners at the airport, but sharp-eyed immigration officials managed to notice scars on her fingers before catching on onto her game. Apparently, prints from Ring's left hand were surgically implanted on her right, leading some of us more astute ones to ask the question as to why prints from both hands were not taken in the first place.

post from Ubergizmo on 08 December 2009 11:37:13 PM. © Ubergizmo
Netbooks are famous for their relatively low price points, but Aojie attempts to outprice them all with a couple of offerings that retail for a mere $146 and $160. The Aojie X100V and X100A will come with 10" displays each, accompanied by an 1.6GHz VIA C7-M processor for the X100V while the X100A is running on a beefier 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor. Shared specifications include USB connectivity, a 1.3-megapixel webcam, 512MB RAM, a 4GB SSD, Wi-Fi connectivity and Windows XP as the operating system of choice. Guess the internal memory is the main reason as to why the prices are far below the $200 mark.

As enthusiasts, we're always interested in the latest monster video cards: the expensive, high-end products that blast through benchmarks and play all your games with buttery-smooth frame rates at the highest resolutions with all the settings maxed out- and sucking a not inconsiderable amount of electricity while doing so! But these products represent only a tiny fraction of the number of video cards sold; the low-to-mid-end cards comprise the bulk of the market. Besides, a GTX285 or Radeon 5870 isn't the ideal solution for every situation: considerations from a limited budget to building a small, quiet system come into play. NVIDIA has been filling out the low-middle end of their video card product line lately, and in this article Benchmark Reviews tests the ASUS ENGT240/DI/512MD5/A video card equipped with with NVIDIA's new GeForce GT240 GPU and 512M of GDDR5 memory.

Your everyday Bluetooth headset is pretty much rendered useless whenever you need to take your bike out for a ride no thanks to the ways helmets fit snugly around your head. BlueAnt has an idea to circumvent this situation with their Stereo F4 Interphone kit which comes with a weatherproof Bluetooth device that is located right outside the helment, featuring a set of thin headphones and a microphone on the inside. It is capable of pairing with up to 8 other Bluetooth devices, letting you make and receive calls on a couple of different handsets while listening to audio directions from your GPS navigation device or even enjoy your favorite tunes while you're eating up the asphalt at insane speeds. Expect this puppy to retail for $225 when available.
