Plantronics Voyager PRO

Monday, April 18, 2011



Remember when Bluetooth first hit the cell phone industry and everybody and their grandmother (literally) had one of those hands-free thingies strapped to the side of their head? I tried to forget those days but they just keep coming back to haunt me. The Voyager Pro (from Plantronics) is hoping that it can bring a little of the sexy back to Bluetooth headsets with its sleek design and non-intrusive footprint. Does it work? Maybe...


One of the cool features of this thing is the auto answer. When you have an incoming call, all you have to do is put the headset on your ear and the phone picks up. You don’t have to tap any buttons, talk to the thing, or even do the hokey pokey. As a sort of adjunct to that feature, the Smart Call Transfer feature will automatically send calls to your phone instead of your headset if the headset is off or away from the phone.

All this automation is kind of a cool innovation in Bluetooth headset but with a $200 price tag it’s kind of hard to justify the purchase when you can get a cheaper (though much dumber) Bluetooth headset for under $50.

For more info, availability, and the full spec’s hit up the PLANTRONICS WEBSITE.

Bluetrek's 1st Carbon Fiber Bluetooth Heads



Bluetooth headsets are a necessity—no matter how you feel about them. So why not make the most of it and go for broke? That’s the idea behind Blutrek’s latest device: the Carbon carbon fiber headset.


Carbon fiber is a lightweight, high tech material that’s being used in more and more applications where strength is needed but weight isn’t. The Carbon headset weighs a quarter of an ounce and can be used continuously for up to 4.5 hours (and five days on stand-by mode). It sports minimalistic good looks and Bluetooth 3.0 so it can sync quickly and effortlessly with even the newest gadgets around.
Best of all, there are no blinking lights to draw attention to the thing strapped to the side of your head—just a single function button.
The headset also comes with four interchangeable earbuds to fit just about anyone’s lobes. While the Carbon Bluetooth headset isn’t cheap, it isn’t exactly expensive either. Retailing for $70, the headset falls right in the middle of the pack.

Hit up the OFFICIAL BLUETREK WEBSITE for all the specifications or to order your Carbon headset today.

TV Streamer for iOS Devices

Monday, January 10, 2011



Hauppauge has announced a new live TV streamer for the Apple iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Called "Broadway", this new stand alone "box" from Hauppauge's PCTV Systems division allows live TV to be watched on an Apple device in the home through a WiFi connection, or anywhere in the world via an Internet connection.

Broadway can be used in the home, for example, to watch a football game or a news program on your iPad. Your iPad will display a list of Broadway provided TV channels from your cable TV network, and once you have chosen a TV channel, touching the iPad screen with your finger will prompt the live TV program to fill the entire screen.
If you travel and have an Internet connection on your iPhone or iPad, you can watch live TV from your home anywhere in the world. Broadway connects to your home network router and transmits the TV signal through your network router over the Internet to your Apple device.
One of the key technologies within Broadway is a high-quality, high definition H.264 video compressor, which can take TV programs from clear QAM digital cable TV or ATSC over-the-air TV and "shrink" these programs into a form which can be displayed on an Apple device. Broadway also has a built-in multi-format TV receiver which can tune to digital cable TV channels and ATSC over-the-air broadcast TV channels, and then compress those TV channels and rebroadcast them over both WiFi and the Internet so that the TV programs can be watched on an Apple device. In addition to HD TV, Broadway can also receive and convert analog TV into a form which can be watched on Apple devices.
Broadway will have a suggested retail price of $199 and will be available in North America in about six weeks.

Dressed Up Your iTouch.4

Friday, December 17, 2010



You got apps, games, music, videos and other stuffs on you iPod Touch??? Hell yeah! Then it's time for you to dressed up your iTouch with these cool cases from iFrogs!

iPod Touch 4 Luxe Orginal Case
Metallic look, velvet feel. The last time these two got together was when Velvet Revolver fused rockers from Guns n' Roses and Stone Temple Pilots. We’re certain our Luxe Original case will stick around longer. This two-component case slides together and locks into perfect position with the iFrogz™ signature curve and button in back. You won't be able to "burn it out of your head!"

iPod Touch 4 Luxe Lean Case
You don't have to wear skinny jeans or be on a ridiculously restricted diet to have a lean look! The Luxe Lean hard-shell, snap-on case will give your iPod™ an unbelievably sleek exterior (not posterior), without a single trip to the gym! The stunning metallic façade, velvety feel, and lithe frame allow access to all buttons, ports, and sensors.

iPod Touch 4 Soft Gloss Case
Do you remember sliding your feet into the pliable plastic of your stellar jelly shoes? Now, that same bodacious material (TPU) is available in our Soft Gloss, semi-opaque protective case! It features an etched, concentric funk-circle pattern that highlights the Apple™ logo. You’ll slip right back into 1987…totally gnarly!
iPod Touch 4 Fusion
We’ve fused together a unique shape and material to give you the posh look you’ve always wanted...and we’re not talking about Victoria Beckham.

Now that's some cool cases huh! Put out your wallets and Christmas List and add this cases as your gifts to your love ones.

World's First Dual-Core Smart Phone




That's right, it's official. Needless to say, that LG Star we recently got our paws on is very real, though it won't go by that name at retail -- just as LG's own release materials had suggested, this monster has picked up the Optimus 2X name as it morphs from a prototype into brutally fast, overpowered reality. At the phone's heart beats a dual-core Tegra 2 processor running at 1GHz, the first such configuration to be officially announced by any smartphone manufacturer (though we're expecting others any day now). In case you're wondering how such power might be used, well, for starters, you've got both full 1080p TV-out via HDMI and video capture through an 8 megapixel primary camera paired with a 1.3 megapixel cam up front for face-to-face calling.


A 4-inch WVGA display is along for the ride along with 8GB of on-board storage (expandable with up to 32GB of microSD) and a 1,500mAh battery -- no larger than most single-core smartphones these days, so it'll be interesting to see if the final retail units hold up through a day of typical use. Unfortunately, the Optimus 2X is launching out of the gate with Android 2.2, but LG's already committing to releasing Gingerbread updates "in due course."

Android... The Sony Ericsson Way!

Thursday, May 13, 2010

We have to start off by noting that Sony Ericsson is calling its modified Android version the UX for now -- meaning User eXperience -- although we suspect it will revert to the more familiar Rachael naming scheme as soon as the lawyers have cleared a few hurdles and cashed a few checks. Part of a big "open OS" push by the company, this new interface will make appearances on a number of future handsets, both of the Android and Symbian persuasion, though Windows Mobile support sounded like something SE might consider only if there's much public demand for it (so much for a proper X2 successor, eh?).




The handset itself is pretty much what you might expect of a high end device -- it's full of appealing curves and slopes, which do nothing for usability (a physical keyboard might've helped), but give it a clean, uncomplicated, and relatively durable look. In our limited time handling it, we found the X10 comfortable enough, though you could tell you were holding a 4-inch device rather than something more compact like the original X1. Touring the outside reveals a MicroUSB charger / connector port, 8.1 megapixel camera, 3.5mm headphone jack, and an 8GB MicroSD card will be made part of the standard retail package.



A must have for this season.... damn!!!
