New Technology in Watch!

The Icelink Snow 6 Timezone Watch

Watches with multiple time zones on display are becoming increasingly relevant as telecommunications is conquering the tyranny of distance, which makes Gemwatchmaker IceLink’s patent on watches displaying six time zones a valuable asset to the company. It began making its 6 Timezone watches some time back, but the latest release is special – instead of six time zones it features four plus power reserve plus a “snow zone” - dozens of floating diamonds are suspended in a special IceFuel liquid, so the precious stones swirl delicately with the movements of the wrist.

The Snow Collection is available in pink gold and white gold, and in two sizes: 6 carats plus 1.25 in the Snow zone and 4.25 carats plus 0.75 in the Snow zone. The 6Timezone features 6 Swiss movements and boasts the Swiss made label. This gadget might not be useful for laymen, but the technology would be useful for those who travel more. In simple words, this gadget is very useful for travelers.

Nokia's new release!!

The new 'Morph' concept phone:

A flexible, bendable mobile phone built using nano technology. While the thin, lime-colored device is only a demo developed in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, Nokia says some of its components may make their way into high-end Nokia handsets within seven years.

Developed by the Nokia Research Center (NRC), the Morph demonstrates how future mobile devices might be stretchable and flexible, allowing users to transform their phone into radically different shapes. It also demonstrates the functionality nanotechnology might be capable of delivering, including the use of flexible materials, transparent electronics and self-cleaning surfaces. The device is flexible enough to bend around a wrist and be used as a bracelet.

"We hope that this combination of art and science will showcase the potential of nanoscience to a wider audience," Dr. Tapani Ryhanen, head of the NRC Cambridge UK laboratory, said in a statement. "The research we are carrying out is fundamental to this as we seek a safe and controlled way to develop and use new materials."

Nokia admits after five years of work there are still technological issues to resolve, such as battery power, before a marketable phone is a reality. "Nokia Research Center is looking at ways to reinvent the form and function of mobile devices," Nokia CTO Bob Iannucci said in a statement. "The Morph concept shows what might be possible."

Tv channels in your hand!!

Packet Video for mobiles!

A decade ago being able to watch your favorite TV shows on your mobile handset looked like a distant fantasy. Not anymore thanks to innovations in mobile technology. And in case you’re wondering if you really have to dig into your life’s savings to buy a high-end handset to avail such services, then you can really breath relief right about now since PacketVideo (PV) has launched a pocket-sized mobile broadcast receiver that joins forces with WiFi-enabled phones and personal media players to deliver top quality mobile TV experience. What the device does is that it receives the digital TV signal, repurposes it to match your phone/player via a wireless signal using specific, patented protocols to provide secure access to premium channels. That effectively means you get to watch your fav soaps on the go without switching to a higher handset.

For now the receiver will be compatible with major mobile broadcast standards, including TDtv, DVB-H and MediaFLO as well as for WiMAX and can be customized for a specific service provider too if need arises. Running on a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, the mobile broadcast receiver features a glowing LED on/off switch along with a color-changing halo that indicates battery charge level.



The 6.4cm W x 1.8cm H x 4cm D receiver is compatible with Nokia N-series, Apple iPhone and HTC Smartphone handsets and is expected to hit markets later this year.

Beware of Sim spy!!

Never leave your sim card alone

It is the Sim Card data extractor and it will take all the data out of the Sim that you have in your hand and instantly transfer it to a PC. So what is so great about this little gadget? For starters if you are trying to get in to someone else’s phone just for the sake of information, then you no longer need to try unlocking it.
