Insignia NS-DV2G

Insignia
Insignia have created a cheap digital media player that costs just 119.99 dollars. It has 2Gb of storage and can play music and video for 20 hours. There seems to be a lot crammed in to this player and looks like an excellent choice for those on a tighter budget. Transfer between the PC and the player runs at USB 2.0 speeds. Extra memory can be added via the microSD expansion slot. The player will play MP3 files and also, it supports many of the major formats.

The Insignia NS-DV2G can be purchased from bestbuy.com.

Kenwood 10GB7 HDD-based DAP

Kenwood 10GB7
The Kenwood 10GB7 is a very small hard disk based DAP. The screen is small at just 1.5 inches and is OLED too. For the size of this thing it doesnt cut back too much on disk space too. It runs a 10GB hard drive. Other features available are 7 preset EQ modes, USB and a picture viewer.

Unfortunatly it comes at a price and weighs in at 345 dollars. Dimensions for this DAP are 62x44x17mm.

Heated Mouse

Mouse Warmer
The heated mouse is an excellent idea which I could use in these cold parts of the year. Sometimes the heating still doesnt get the hands warm enough. Thanko have released the USB heated mouse but it will need to be imported. The heat function built in is optional which means in the summer months you do not have to use it. It will warm up to 45 degrees.

If this doesnt help then try out the Thanko Header Mouse Pad. The mouse sells for just 22 dollars and is powered by your USB port.

Digital Binocular Camera 5M Pixels

Digital Binocular Camera
The Pro Viewer BinoCam is a set of binoculars that allow you to take pictures of things far away. It has 3 functions. It can be used as a regular set of binoculars, it can take close up photos and it can take close up videos. The camera built in has a 5 megapixel sensor. Magnification is at the 8X factor and resolution goes all the way up to 1600×1200. The built in TFT screen is 1.5 inch.

To store pictures you need to have an SD card which is not included. If you do not then you cannot save pictures you take. Unfortunatly it uses USB 1.1 and not version 2.0. Thats a bad move in my opinion although if you have a card reader then it’s not too bad. Coolest-Gadgets points out some problems with the product information and it’s well worth a read at the link below.

Snowbot

Snowbot
The Snowbot is the latest in USB peripherals that are hitting the market recently. From first site it reminds me of the battlestar galactica Cylon’s although I guess it could be renamed the Snowlon. That red or blue light that swishes from side to side is enough to scare the thiefs away from your PC.

Unfortunatly when the light goes on they will see it’s just a Snowbot and probably take it anyway. The Snowbot is USB powered which has several controls which can speed up the light, change it’s colour to red or blue and make a noise.

Linux Smartphone

FIC Linux Phone
A new Linux Smartphone is on it’s way called the FIC-GTA001. The phone is going to be released along with an SDK which will then allow users to create their own programs and functions for the phone.

The FIC-GTA001 has a 2.8 inch VGA screen, USB file sharing, multi touch sensor recognition, GSM, GPS, 128Mb RAM which a Samsung ARM9 processor. It will also play MP3’s.

Multi Touch
Multi touch technology gives the user the option of touching the screen with 2 fingers which will help with a bunch of tasks.

Giving the SDK along with the phone makes this an interesting step. I can see a lot of developers jumping on this concept to create their own software to power their new phone and then share it with the world.
