A.I. Smartwatch could change the Smartphone market

September 30, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

android ai smartwatch

I have been seeing a lot of talk of smartwatches, and I'm still not convinced that I need one. I think Samsung has some sort of plan, but it is nothing compared to the A.I. Watch. Most smartwatches are just something to pair with a smartphone via Bluetooth, but what makes the A.I. smartwatch different is it can be a standalone Android phone. Yeah, a phone on our watch! … [Read more...] about A.I. Smartwatch could change the Smartphone market

Samsung getting into PowerbyProxi, about 4 million dollar’s worth

September 30, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

powerbyproxi samsung

I have recently learned that Samsung Ventures America has recently given about $4 million to PowerbyProxi. If you have not heard of this company, it essentially allows multiple devices to be charged on one place. I was sort of hoping that Samsung would get in on this. After all, Nokia has their cool wireless charging features on their phones, so it is about time that Samsung … [Read more...] about Samsung getting into PowerbyProxi, about 4 million dollar’s worth

The Valve Steam Controller and how it could change TV gaming

September 30, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

steam controller 1

If you are not familiar with Steam, it is a way of porting some cool games to your PC. I have used it in the past, and the company announced last week that they intend to do more for the people. The first was Steam OS and a Steam Machine, which are essentially modified PCs to play Steam games on their television. Of course, you are going to need a controller to play … [Read more...] about The Valve Steam Controller and how it could change TV gaming

Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005 Version)

September 28, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

hitchhikers guide

As I have said before, I like watching people review bad movies like the Nostalgia Critic, and if you watch enough shows about bad movies, the same titles show up like Batman and Robin, Freddy Got Fingered, and The Last Airbender. For some reason, I never see The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on this list, and perhaps it is too new. Hitchhiker's is one of those films … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005 Version)

Stir Smart Desk will help you burn calories

September 27, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Stir

The other day, when I was talking about the company Nest creating a Smoke Detector, and how everything should be smart in the home. I suppose that the desk would soon become the smartest thing. This is a smart desk called the Stir. If you are wondering what makes it smart, it has to do with the ability to raise itself. The purpose of this height thing is to give the user … [Read more...] about Stir Smart Desk will help you burn calories

Puzzle-Pod Bank and Present Vault from ThinkGeek

September 26, 2013 By Techno_Mark 2 Comments

Puzzle Pod

I have reported on items from ThinkGeek before, and this one is one of the cooler ones. It is a Puzzle-Pod Bank and Present Vault, and see if you can guess what you do with it. Think about The Da Vinci Code where the clue was hidden in the cryptex that could only be opened with a special word code. If the person you are giving this to wants that gift, he or or she is … [Read more...] about Puzzle-Pod Bank and Present Vault from ThinkGeek

BluFit is a hydration bottle that has its own app

September 26, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

blufit2 610x740

This particular gadget is something that I haven't really seen before, as it is a waterbottle that has its own app. The purpose of this app is to moderate your own levels of hydration. This app helps you control your appetite, improve activity and performance, and helps prevent headaches and fatigues. There is some sort of sensor the can record the time and amount of water … [Read more...] about BluFit is a hydration bottle that has its own app

Amazon announes the Kindle Fire HDX

September 26, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

amazon kindle fire hdx

I guess we really should have seen this one coming, as Amazon has just announced the latest version of the Kindle Fire. Okay, it was yesterday, but give me a break, they didn't post this by the time I was looking for stories for the day. Welcome to the age of the Kindle Fire HDX, which should last a year, I guess. Like the new iPhones, they come in two forms. In the … [Read more...] about Amazon announes the Kindle Fire HDX

La Pedrera iPhone 5C Case from iLuv

September 25, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

iLuv La Pedrera

I think it is really cool that cell phone accessory companies have already responded to the need for iPhone 5C cases, and iLuv is on it. The La Pedrera is the first iPhone 5C accessory that I have reviewed, but it certainly won't be the last. You might notice an odd meshy-look to it, and it certainly is unusual. It is apparently designed by Antoni Gaudi, a renowned … [Read more...] about La Pedrera iPhone 5C Case from iLuv

Nest could be working on a Smoke Detector

September 25, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Nest Fire Alarm

I don't know if you have heard of Nest, but they make this "smart thermostat". Nest was started by a former Apple exec named Tony Fadell, and the smart thermostat learns it's user's needs in order to optimize itself to consume less energy overall. There is a rumor that Nest is now working on a smoke detector. If this is true, then it will have some serious sensors. I … [Read more...] about Nest could be working on a Smoke Detector

What’s the Difference Between an iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S? Just a few stickers.

September 25, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

iPhone 5S

Okay, we know that the iPhone 5S has that questionable biometric detection problem, and I am wondering if the iPhone 5S is all that. Apparently, if you want to turn your iPhone 5 into a 5S, it is as simple as applying a few stickers. These vinyl kits cost about $23.49, which is a somewhat high price to pay for this faux upgrade. I have no idea who wants to dress up … [Read more...] about What’s the Difference Between an iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S? Just a few stickers.

GameCase for iOS devices

September 24, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

gamecase ipad game controller

When I first saw the GameCase, it felt familiar to me. I first thought that I had reported on it before, but I did a Search on my site and found nothing. I suppose that the closest thing that I have seen was a Wii U controller. After all, it is two halves of a controller (with D-pad, two analog sticks, and console style ABXY buttons) that have a screen sandwiched in … [Read more...] about GameCase for iOS devices

Apparently, the iPhone 5S fingerprint thing can be easily hacked

September 24, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Two weeks ago, when we first reported about the iPhone 5S, we talked about the touchprint ID, a feature that Apple hyped as big as the camera for the iPhone v. 2 and Siri for iPhone v. 4. Unfortunately, you can see in the video above that this feature can be hacked. This video comes to us courtesy of the Chaos Computer Club (CCC) which sounds like a pretty smart … [Read more...] about Apparently, the iPhone 5S fingerprint thing can be easily hacked

Oppo officially unveils the N1

September 24, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

oppo n1

I realize that this news is a day old, but in light of the big unveiling by Microsoft, I thought I would save this announcement for today. This is the N1 from Chinese smartphone manufacturer Oppo, and this is their latest flagship Android smartphone. The N1 has a 5.9 Full HD resolution display with a pixel density of 373 pixels per inch. I would imagine that the latest … [Read more...] about Oppo officially unveils the N1

DryCase Waterproof Case for iPads and other tablets

September 23, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

DryCase

Okay, look at this photo to your left, would you put your iPad so close to the water? If you had a DryCase, the answer is yes. I think we all know that such technology exists, for I have been reporting on cases like the Otterbox and Lifeproof on this blog for quite a while. The DryCase is different as it is not a hard shield, but a loose bag that is not too burdensome on … [Read more...] about DryCase Waterproof Case for iPads and other tablets
