MP3 Player Alarm Clock

post from Ubergizmo on 16 July 2006 11:53:18 PM. © Ubergizmo

Ever got bored of the normal alarm clock that offers nothing but an incessant din? Why not wake up to the pleasant tunes of your favorite band with the MP3 Player Alarm Clock. This nifty little device ships with 64MB of memory that is sufficient to store enough music to wake up even the dead. Other features include an LC display, backlit controls to help you set the alarm and program the playlist, and a pair of speakers. You upload music to it via the USB port. The $65 MP3 Player Alarm Clock is powered by 4 AA batteries that can last up to 10 hours of non-stop audio playback. The addition of the Snooze button is icing on the cake, while the inclusion of a FM tuner would have made this a must buy.

Baby's Breath Jr. HM 200 air purifier

post from Shiny Shiny on 16 July 2006 11:29:00 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Since "appropriate for your baby room decor" is how you'll decide what air purifier you install to cleanse the air which courses through your flesh'n'blood's veins, you'll want a Baby's Breath Jr. HM200. Not because it has a HEGA (High Efficiency Gas Absorption) filter which was designed for use against chemical warfare or because it also has the traditional HEPA and a centrifugal fan which allows the thing to purify up to 700sq' (which is a pretty good deal for $300 USD). But you'll want it because it's available in baby pink and baby blue. [GT]

Polar Cycling Computer Watches: Get ahead of the
pack!

post from Mr.Gadget Australia on 16 July 2006 08:15:00 PM. © Mr.Gadget Australia

As many of you sporting people our there may know, the Tour de France is on at the moment, ie the most famous and sought after Cycling World Title of the year! My brother loves his cycling and he's actually gone over to France to ride the course. He's not actually competing but riding the course with a few other keen cyclists...what a challenge... psycho!! Now he, along with many other cyclists utilise a Polar Cycling Computer Watch to keep a close eye on their performance.

Cycling, like many other sports, if not all sports, is about getting the edge over your opponent. Utilising a Polar cycling watch, that can be fitted to your handlebars, will give you a multitude of information that will help you pace yourself a lot more effectively. The last thing you want is to burn yourself out during a race. Well to be able to monitor your HR at anytime, along with your cadence, speed and distance traveled, you will be able to get a far better idea of how you are traveling. How you feel as opposed to how your body is actually functioning can be quite different!

With the higher end Polar watches, you also are supplied with computerised analysis software and diary so that you can monitor your training and ensure you reach your goals. I have the S625X, which is the running equivalent of the S725X, and let me say they are very impressive as to what they can do and measure. And they look really cool as well... will turn a few heads! So ensure that you are ahead of the pack by purchasing a Polar HR Cycling Watch.

Order your Polar Cycling Computer Watch from Mr.Gadget today!

HP iPaq rw6828 Pocket PC: Ready For Ordering!

post from Mr.Gadget Australia on 16 July 2006 08:00:00 PM. © Mr.Gadget Australia

Just got back in the office today after a great little time away for some R&R and to my very pleasant surprise was the announcement that the HP iPaq rw6828 Multimedia Messenger is now ready for ordering! From reviews i've scoured on the internet, it seems the rw6828 is somewhat of a better unit than the O2 Atom. How so? Mainly just the little things like it's surface finish (no need to worry about fingerprints on this one), casing seems a little sturdier, included hard screen cover, etc. These little things may not be much but for an investment into a device such as this, you'd want everything to be perfect. If you've had a play with the rw6828 let us know what you think in the comments section.

Features of the HP iPaq rw6828 Multimedia Messenger Pocket PC Phone:
- Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 for Pocket PC
- Phone Edition with Messaging and Security Feature Pack
- Intel PXA272 processor 416MHz
- 128MB ROM available for persistent user storage
- 64MB SDRAM for running applications
- Integrated WLAN 802.11b
- Integrated bluetooth
- Integrated camera
- GSM/GPRS/EDGE

Order your HP iPaq rw6828 here at Mr.Gadget Australia today!
