Leisure Eyes Bizarre Eye Cover Speakers

January 30, 2010 by Tom in Accessories with No Comments.

From Bando comes this weird, weird device - the Leisure Eyes Cover. It's designed to be comfortable, cover your eyes and provide you music via the two built-in speakers. It's for relaxation, plane journeys and the like. It even looks like it could be quite comfortable but design-wise it leaves a lot to be desired. Out now for $16 (meaning the speakers are probably aren't up to much). via genmp3

Hysteric Glamour: Trendy Japanese Headphones

January 28, 2010 by Tom in Accessories with No Comments.

It's no surprise when fashion brands, music and technology mix and another textbook display is this admittedly pretty nicely packaged Hysteric Glamour set of earbuds. What is a surprise is the $77 pricetag. Unless they've got some serious hardware inside you're really paying a lot to get the brand on your green or black headphones. via chipchick

Apple iPad Is Official – Specs

January 27, 2010 by Tom in Hardware News, Tablet with No Comments.

After endless speculation here it is - the Apple iPad. After the countless renders, guesses and questions it seems a bit of an anti-climax to see it finally - the best even Steve Jobs can offer is, "it just works." Inspiring words there, Steve. Anyway - the lowdown. It does indeed look like a big iPod (no surprise there), it's .5 inches thick, weighs 1.5 pounds and has a 9l7 inch IPS display with full capacitive multitouch. The guts are Apple's own 1GHz Apple A4 chip and storage options are 16GB, 32GB and 64GB. IT also comes with WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 +EDR, accelerometer (for all that running you'll be doing with it?), compass, speaker, mic and 10 hours of battery life. via slipperybrick
