Cafe Quelle 4Port USB Hub-喝咖啡配…usb hub??

Here are four stylish, new 4 port USB hubs from Sigma-Apo. Let’s define “stylish.” The idea here is a USB hub in the shape of a standard chocolate often provided with coffee.
I honestly would prefer a real chocolate over this thingy, but some people fancy these things. It measures 58x55x11mm at 30g.

什麼產品最有型有款?今天小波許又來介紹一款可愛又時尚的科技小物拉! 由sigma-Apo發表的Café Quelle usb hub,共有四個配色選擇。設計造型理念是來自於喝咖啡常搭配的巧克力。
不過老實說,我寧可要真正可以吃的巧克力,但總是有些人熱愛這些東西嘛!這小玩意體積58x55x11mm ,重量才30g呢!

小波許愛插嘴:我也比較想要可以吃的巧克力… 😳

Sony and Universal launching POP vending machines-Sony什麼都賣,什麼都不奇怪!

Sure, downloading songs and movies is easy these days (even when done legally), but what if you don’t have a computer or internet connection? “How would I be reading this post, then?” you might ask. Fair point, but there must be dozens of other people out there with portable media players yet no way to fill them, and for this market Sony and Universal have partnered to create POP, the “instant entertainment 24/7” vending machine hitting the UK this holiday season. Unlike other boxes that sell media players, this one sells content to fill them, downloaded straight to a memory card, flash drive, PMP, or other (USB-supporting) portable device. You can also purchase media-based content on DVD and Blu-ray if you like, games too, all of which “pop” out shrink wrapped and in full retail garb. Being able to buy a Blu-ray disc at midnight on a dark corner sounds mildly interesting, but with no mention of file formats or DRM or anything else, you won’t find us sticking our memory cards into this thing’s slots anytime soon.

我們都知道,這年頭要下載歌曲和電影非常容易,但倘若今天你沒有電腦或者是網路呢?(看到這裡你可能會想,我幹麻浪費我時間看這則新聞)。鼻要這樣嘛~但我相信一定有許多人擁有MP3但卻沒有灌音樂或電影的管道,針對這樣的市場,Sony和環球影城在今年假期旺季合作開發出「POP」這種即時娛樂販賣機。相較於其他箱子販賣多媒體撥放器,這台機器販賣多媒體的內容。它可以直接下載到任何你的記憶卡、隨身碟、PMP或者其他可攜式產品(前提是要支援USB)。只要付費,DVD、藍光畫質的影片,甚至遊戲就可以迅速、直接的下載到你的多媒體播放器裡。不難想像,一個人三更半夜站在奇怪的角落購買下載藍光影片,這樣的畫面雖然感覺有些可笑,但不須考慮格式、DRM或其他有的沒的,你再不會看到我們拿著我們的記憶卡在那些惱人的插槽上插來插去拉!

小波許愛插嘴:這樣的市場…在台灣應該是超小眾吧@@ 但挺酷的就是了! 哈 😆

iBangle: Fantastic future iPod-下一代的華麗ipod-iBangle

When it comes to iPods and other MP3 players, not much has changed about them in the past few years. Sure, the memory is getting better all the time, but the design is the same: they clip on the belt and the obligatory wired earplugs.
This iBangle design concept is a little bit daring as the design fits right on your wrist instead of clipping to your belt. Don’t let its loose look fool you, the iBangle won’t easily slip off like other “clip-on” MP3 players. Apparently, that tiny blue button that you see in the illustration somehow fills the blue area with air, so it fits snug, but hopefully not too snug.
As for the earphones, forget about it! The audio sound is transmitted via wireless earbuds. So how do you navigate through tracks, you may ask? Just use the multi-touch track pad.
Now, if only it had a way to play video files. Perhaps a screen could be put on it, and the iBangle could pass for a watch.
Too bad this iBangle remains only a concept from designer Gopinath Prasana. Apple, this could easily be the next big thing for MP3 Players, so please feel free to put one million iBangles into production.

對於ipod及MP3這類產品領域來說,這幾年來沒有什麼大改革。當然,容量總是越來越大,但造型設計卻總是了無新意:夾在背帶上、有線的耳機。天啊!不要再被這種容易脫落產品玩弄拉~蘋果推出iBangle絕對不會像其他「夾式」MP3一樣容易脫落。從圖片上可以很明顯的看到,那個像藍色按鈕的設計可以讓藍色區域填滿空氣,如此一來帶起來會很舒適, 不過希望不要太軟才好。XD

至於耳機部分,終於可以擺脫它拉。聲音透過無線耳塞來傳輸。但是你一定想問,怎麼操作音樂播放,只要利用上面的觸控板就好啦。
未來,如果iBangle要進步到可以撥放影片,或許加上螢幕後會變成iwatch。

可惜iBangle現在還是在概念設計階段(設計師為Gopinath Prasana)。蘋果阿~~這樣產品恐怕一定會顛覆MP3的傳統,所以放大膽直接量產100萬台吧~~

小波許插嘴:超~融合時尚和科技的手環,下次不考慮買Tiffany啦!!

Nintendo sees overseas DSi launch by next summer-DSi有望於明年夏季於美國上市

Nintendo’s tip-toeing around an overseas, US release date of its new DSi handheld has now been narrowed to the summer of 2009, according to president Satoru Iwata. That’s a whole lot better than “well into” 2009 if you ask us. Meanwhile, Japan gets theirs starting Saturday for ¥18,900 or about $192 tax-inclusive — that’s up from $178 earlier this month thanks to a skyrocketing Yen. Nintendo has already shipped 200,000 of the slimmer, dual-cam handheld consoles in preparation for weekend sales with another 100,000 planned for the following week. Clearly there’s no such thing as an economic slowdown in the land that Mario built.

根據總裁Satoru Iwata的說法,美國DSi將提前於2009年夏季上市。比先前說2009年上市,這個消息實在好太多啦!然而,日本上市時間則為本週六,價格在18,900日幣或美金192含稅,比這個月才178美元報價還要來的高。(因為最近日幣飆漲)。為了這周的首賣,任天堂已經鋪了20萬台更輕薄、雙攝影機的Dsi,並且於下周準備了10萬台備貨。這說明了在馬力歐一手打造的世界裡,沒有經濟不景氣這件事情。

小波許:那台灣上市日期呢QQ 會不會和wii一樣一拖再拖啊???!!! 💡

W-41 t-shirts connect random people with you-把妹必備科技

If you’ve ever wished you could email a girl you thought was cute that you saw once in real life, you’ll like this new technology. W-41 allows for you to access the person’s facebook, myspace, blog or whatever else she has registered to this site. How it works is you would have to have the technology downloaded onto your phone, then when you see someone wearing the t-shirt with the logo you’d have to take a picture of it. Keep in mind you’d have to be close enough to do this.
If you want other people to be able to find you, you’d have to buy some of their clothing. They have three different shirts for guys and three for girls. One of the down sides is that yes, you could meet some new people this way, but you could also get a few creepy emails as well. There is also the annoying factor of knowing that someone is likely going to attempt to take your picture on their phone. Then if you don’t live in a large city, it’s highly unlikely anyone will know what the strange symbol on your back means. Either way, it’s still a cool way to meet new people. The shirts aren’t too expensive, but still a little pricey t-shirts are $49 and sweatshirts are $56. Thedownload for you phone is completely free though

在路上碰到可愛的女孩子時,一般人應該恨不得要到她的MSN並且跟她做近一步認識。
如果你有這種經驗,那相信你一定愛死了這項新科技,W-41讓你可以取得她的facebook、myspace、部落格或者是任何她曾經註冊過的網站。怎麼做呢?首先,你必須在手機上下載w-41的程式,之後,當你在發現有人穿著這款有W-41 logo的衣服時,趕緊把logo拍起來!(注意,要在一定的近距離才有辦法拍成功。)

若是你希望讓其他人認識你,不妨為自己買一件這樣的衣服吧,男女各有三種不同的款式可以選擇。不過這項科技也有它的缺點在,首先,雖然你可以藉由這方法認識到許多人,但同時也有可能收到許多惱人的垃圾信。當然你也要有心理準備隨時隨地都會有人拿著照相機拍你。此外,若你處在小城市,很多人會不懂你背後那奇怪的標誌是在幹麻。不過這新奇的科技不失為認識新朋友最酷炫的方法。這玩意價格有點小貴,T-shirt要價$49美元,汗衫為$56美元,至於下載程式到手機上則是免費的。
