The latest and greatest gadgets that require a little electrical buzz
Mobile Power Pack
Our society is always on the go, which means we need technology that can keep up with our hectic schedules. The folks at American Power Conversion are looking out for you. They have just released their latest addition in the line they call Mobility Solutions. The Mobile Power Pack can put an end to dead battery worries. From MP3 players to mobile phones to portable gaming systems, the Mobile Power Pack can power them all. This tiny device packs a punch, offering hours of extra battery life. And since it's smaller than a deck of playing cards, it's a breeze to keep one on hand. It's so small, in fact, that it only weighs 3 ounces! You'll forget you even have it on you (until you need it, that is). Never stress again about whether your cell phone will last through an important call with a blinking power bar or if you'll make it to the next game checkpoint before your battery runs dry. The Mobile Power Pack, like other APC devices, uses polymer battery cells, which offer higher power density than traditional lithium ion cells do. The result is big power output in a compact little package. This tiny power pack offers up to 55 additional hours of playtime for your new iPod Nano, or up to 10 hours of extra time for your BlackBerry or Palm Treo. The Mobile Power Pack is compatible with most mobile devices with a USB port.
Picco Z
Ever thought to yourself that it would be great to own your very own helicopter? Well now you can! Sort of. Measuring 6" from nose to tail and weighing in at just 10 grams, the Picco Z is the smallest and lightest R/C helicopter on the planet. Enjoy this little pocket-sized techno-wonder's 100-feet remote control range and amazing flying capabilities. It features a blue LED strobe light and is safe for both indoor and outdoor operation. Don't worry about assembly -- this toy comes fully assembled and ready to fly! It has an onboard rechargeable Lithium Polymer battery and uses two tiny motors to do authentic helicopter moves, from take-off to hovering in place and flying sideways. And you don't have to get a pilot's license to operate it -- the Picco Z is super-easy to figure out. You'll be flying like the pros within minutes! The charge will only keep it in the air for ten minutes at a time, but the Picco Z recharges nearly as quickly. Recharge your mini-chopper in less than half an hour with the included portable charger and be back in the air in no time! This amazing little gadget retails for just $69.00!
RhinoSkin MacBook Hardcase
Protect that expensive new MacBook with a RhinoSkin MacBook Hardcase. The Hardcase provides unbeatable protection for your Mac with a tough ABS case covering on the outside and protective neoprene padding on the inside (to prevent scratches). The Hardcase has all the ventilation your Mac needs, plus openings for the CD/DVD drive, data ports, charger jacks and any other function you can devise. And if you've ever held a laptop on your lap for long, you know that they get a little too warm for comfort. Luckily, the folks who designed the Hardcase have thought of everything. They've double-hinged the cover to allow it to flip down under the MacBook, protecting your tender skin. It comes with a detachable accessory box with room enough to contain an AC charger, cables and more! And in transit, the RhinoSkin can make your Mac totally hands free. It has removable straps to transform itself into a backpack. Choose from white or black.
ClearPlay Technology
The world today is simply not suitable for young children at times. As busy parents, how can you hope to compete with the steady stream of media being fed to your child all-day, every day? ClearPlay Technology can help. This special DVD player gives television a good scouring, filtering out unwanted profanity, sex, and violence and helping your children stay children as long as they should. Just think: no more frantic covering of kids' eyes and ears whenever something inappropriate comes on. For $59.99, the ClearPlay DVD Player will use its patented filtering technology to silence or smoothly skip over any racy or unwanted content. You, as the parent, get to decide what is appropriate and what is not, using preference presets that you can adjust prior to sitting down to watch a movie. The filters work with any DVD, whether rented or bought, and can be removed if you want to watch the adult version. For more details, check out their website, www.clearplay.com.
