If you recall, the Eye-Fi is the first wireless memory card for digital cameras that allows users to wirelessly send photos directly from their digital camera to their computer or online photo sharing site using home Wi-Fi networks.
What Are You Looking Forward To in 2008?
Earlier this week I shared some of my hot gadget predictions for 2008, some of which were utterly foreseeable (for example the success and hype around the wireless Kindle reader is bound to make eReaders a heavily replicated device) and some were more hopeful (please, please let there be more flash based personal media players!). I want to know: What gadget and technological innovations are you looking forward to in the coming year?
What Are You Looking Forward To in 2008?
Cell Phone Naomi Campbell Should Get
If Naomi Campbell had thrown this bendy and soft mobile phone at her assistant we might never have seen her marching to community service in haute couture and she might not have an assault record. The phone is encased in a flexible plastic housing so you can essentially play Bop-It with it without damaging it. It features a soft flexible display - it's 2.75-in.
Vintage Geek: Keracolor Sphere TVs
There's no denying the fact that we live in a time of flat screen televisions. In fact, a recent trip to my local Best Buy proved that you can only buy flat screens in their stores these days. Clearly, that was not always the case.
Flashlight Player: Beams Media Instead of Light
This Flashlight-Inspired Media Player concept might not have commercial success written all over it, but it's intriguing shape coupled with the fact that it would be perfect for presentations and travel makes it worth considering. You control the device by rotating knobs along the "flashlight" body. It allows you to project your interface, pictures, and movies onto a wall instead of a screen.
Samsung Phone With Editing Capabilities
Do you ever take videos on your cell phone and think, hey, I want to edit this 30-seconds of my dog running in circles on my phone and get it online right now? If so, you're in luck. According to Info World, Samsung Electronics will add video editing and production functions to a new cellphone so users can shoot, edit, and upload videos to Internet video sites without using a computer.
Bite This: Pac-Man Chair
A furniture designer from Cologne, Germany, has come up with fun concept drawings for a Pac-Man-inspired lounge chair. The chair may take the shape of a vintage geek iconic video game, but it's surprisingly neat-looking and simple.
While I can't understand a word on M.J.Bing's website, I know this much is true: I would be perfectly happy listening to Pac-Man Fever and sitting in this chair all day.
Flying Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse
Am I the only person who is pretty darn excited to try out the MX Air Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse from Logitech? Releasing this August, the device will cost $150 and will work on your desk or in the air. That's right folks, you can use the MX Air to browse and play your favorite media because the sensor transforms hand motions into natural, responsive cursor controls.
Tangible 3D Glove Will Let User 'Feel' Images
I thought the new multi-touch Microsoft Surface table, which uses cameras to sense objects, hand gestures and touch, was about as tactile as gadgets would get this year. I was wrong. A Japanese company NTT Comware has fashioned a realistic 3D imaging technology that connect to a sensor-packed glove and allows you to both see and "feel" images.
Offi Mag Table: Mod Laptop Desk Option
As someone who admittedly blogs in uncomfortable places - namely the couch, the living room floor and my bed - I am whole heartedly enchanted by this Offi Mag Table that doubles as a laptop desk. It was originally created as a side table or seat with storage, but as Apartment Therapy notes, it can be rotated on it's side for use as a laptop table.
A similar model is being sold from Mod Seed for $139.
