In states like New Jersey, the law states that you can not hold a cell phone while driving. So, little devices like the Bluetooth Steering Wheel are starting to sell like hot cakes. I believe this restriction will domino into most states over time, so start shopping. Plus, it’s just a safer way to drive and chat. Of course, the phone you have requires bluetooth capabilities. The Bluetooth Steering Wheel in car gadget will receive or reject calls, redial the last number and use speed dial right from your steering wheel. Not a bad looking device I might add…
Have a plant that requires full sun, but the window only gets 3 hours of it? Problem solved with the Plantbot. An innovating use of robot technology being applied to real world problems (well, inconvenience might be a better word). The four legged, spider like plant holder slowly migrates in the direction of sun. Keeping the plant in full light for as long as possible. Though it’s unclear how this is powered, I would hope solar is used to charge its mobile self? Note: pets might freak out with such a device moving around on it own. Not to mention alarm systems. The robot age is coming folks… deal with it!

There is high-end computer audio and then there is the Harman Kardon stanards that audio enthusiasts are looking for. The sound from the Harman Kardon GLA-55 desktop speakers are so clear, then even designed them to have a clear, see through experience. Gimmick intended?… I’m sure it is, but they’ve carved the GLA-55 to appear more like works of art, rather then standard boring speakers. Dual functions and high sound come at a price… $999 for the pair!
