We have seen many different types of futuristic watches with strange shapes and design but none so unique as this. Now lets welcome the Nail watch, that can be worn on the thumb. You may have never seen a watch that can be worn on the thumb but times are going to change thanks to Timex. Timex, in collaboration with Core77, held a global design competition called 2154: the future of time design. So what we are seeing here is the TX54 concept which was a runner up there.



Thanks to a translucent body, the design blends seamlessly with the nail while a selection of text color options and a glow feature activating on command make it supremely functional as well. Press the end of your thumbnail, and the watch will light up for you. A perfect blend of appearance, user interface, and technology, the nail watch passes most standards of modern design with flying colors thanks to its functional and minimalist appeal. The watch looks stylish and chic and has a touch of Geeky style as well. The downside of this watch is that it is disposable. So with so many stylish watched being available now, it will be hard for it to survive in the market. Though it is quite innovative with a minimalist design, but it won't last long on your finger.



No details about the availability or the price of this watch has been released by Timex. But since it is tiny and disposable, I don't expect the price to be high.

This MouseFone is yet another entry to the mouse-phone combo family, and it looks pretty ergonomic complete with a rather dynamic color scheme. I just hope the white plastic on its exterior won't fade to an ugly shade of stained yellow in due time - a problem that plagues many a lightly-colored device. Features from the mouse point of view includes the standard 800 DPI optical sensor, while as a VoIP handset, it comes with an integrated microphone and speaker, volume control, a dot-matrix called ID, an OLED display and a keypad. The MouseFone is smart enough to know when it is supposed to run as a mouse and function as a phone, but should all else fail (you can never be too sure with technology) there is always a manual switch.

Three years ago, some people set out to design and build an entirely new class of device—a convenient, portable reading device with the ability to wirelessly download books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers. The result is Amazon Kindle.

They designed Kindle to provide an exceptional reading experience. Thanks to electronic paper, a revolutionary new display technology, reading Kindle’s screen is as sharp and natural as reading ink on paper—and nothing like the strain and glare of a computer screen. Kindle is also easy on the fingertips. It never becomes hot and is designed for ambidextrous use so both “lefties” and “righties” can read comfortably at any angle for long periods of time.

They wanted Kindle to be completely mobile and simple to use for everyone, so they made it wireless. No PC and no syncing needed. Using the same 3G network as advanced cell phones, they deliver your content using their own wireless delivery system, Amazon Whispernet. Unlike WiFi, you’ll never need to locate a hotspot. There are no confusing service plans, yearly contracts, or monthly wireless bills—they take care of the hassles so you can just read.

With Whispernet, you can be anywhere, think of a book, and get it in one minute. Similarly, your content automatically comes to you, wherever you are. Newspaper subscriptions are delivered wirelessly each morning. Most magazines arrive before they hit newsstands. Haven’t read the book for tomorrow night’s book club? Get it in a minute. Finished your book in the airport? Download the sequel while you board the plane. Whether you’re in the mood for something serious or hilarious, lighthearted or studious, Kindle delivers your spontaneous reading choices on demand.

And because they knew that you can’t judge a book by its cover, Kindle lets you download and read the beginning of books for free. This way, you can try it out—if you like it, simply buy and download with 1-Click, right from your Kindle, and continue reading. Want to try a newspaper as well? All newspaper subscriptions start with a risk-free two-week trial.Kindle’s paperback size and expandable memory let you travel light with your library. With the freedom to download what you want, when you want, I hope you’ll never again find yourself stuck without a great read.

The only problem with the device is it's cost:$399.

Thatz quite expensive...

Key Catcher

Capture 262,000 keystrokes (over 160 pages)!




This is a device that can be connected to a keyboard to record all keystrokes. It has a changeable password, keyword search, enable/disable option, and stores URLs. Records 262,000 keystrokes and does not require any software. Monitor unauthorized access to your computer or your network. Use it to troubleshoot or make fixes by tracing back through a users command sequence.
Key Katcher plugs in between your keyboard and your computer. A microcontroller interprets the data, and stores information in the non-volatile memory (which retains the information even when there is a loss of power.) This means that the Key Katcher device can be unplugged, and the information will not be lost.
To access the recorded data, you simply type your password in a text editor and the Key Katcher comes to life. A menu is displayed with options to erase data, view data, search data for keywords, change password, or disable the device.

Some neat features of this gadget:
Available in the "Magnum" 4MB size, 256K, 128K or Mini size.
It is Portable - move it from computer to computer.
Installs in seconds - Just plug it in.
Uses no system resources. Truly runs in the background.
Works with all PC Operating Systems with PS/2 keyboards. USB version available here
Data is retained even during system lock-ups and power outages.
No Software to learn. Use in conjunction with programs you already know.

Here’s another energy saving device. This clock runs on, wait for it…water! The clock uses a patented water powered battery, which only needs topping up with h20 once every 2-3 months. The clock displays the time and date, however if you turn it 90 degrees it will display the temperature (Celsius and Fahrenheit), turn it again and the alarm will be displayed and finally with one more 90 degree turn the timer is displayed.

You know that the human race is getting increasingly lazy,when we cant even be bothered opening the trash can lid to put trash in anymore. But, thats essentially what this gadget achieves. However, it does have itz perks besides removing the need to bend over and lift a lid. Using invisible infrared technology, the iTouchless trash can automatically opens when you put your hand or debris about six inches away from the lid. Once your hands have moved away and debris has been released the lid automatically closes.
The main advantage of this technology is it means you don’t have to come in contact with any germs when you need to dispose of waste, be it when cooking, or playing with your children.


The trashcan runs on four “D” size heavy duty batteries and supports up to 10,000 consecutive openings and closings.
If you are interested....
You can grab one from Amazon for $74.00.
