Casio Bluetooth Low Energy G-SHOCK
Casio develops an all new technology for its rugged and dependable watches with the unveiling of the Bluetooth Low Energy G-SHOCK. For the time being, the feature list is rather simple in which watches and phones can be synced over Bluetooth for timing accuracy, the ability to be notified of alerts on your smartphone and silencing your smartphone via the watch. There is the potential for greater development down the line as we anticipate some interesting advancements to come on the back of this initial pairing. Aside from the Bluetooth functionality, the watch still maintains water resistance up to 200 meters and all the usual G-SHOCK features.

Apple iPad 2
Was I right, or was I right? Steve Jobs and Apple released another new product again. The iPad 2 ! Lets just put it this way its Faster/Thinner/Smarter/ Has Cameras now. In my opinion Steve and apple plan to take over the world, but thats just my opinion so it really doesn’t matter. What does matter tho is all the people that try and hate on the iPad and let alone just Apple. Saying Android is better system and the new Motorola tablet is way cooler and fast blah blah blah. What all you apple haters aren’t seeing is the point that apple is company that is about Quality and Quantity. So when you get hired and your soon to be 9 – 5 and they say here’s your apple computer or iPhone/iPad I want to see you say apple is shit then. Get with it, this company is going to be around for a very long time whether you like it or not.

BIOMETRIC WALLET
Virtually indestructible, the dunhill Biometric Wallet will open only with touch of your fingerprint.
it can be linked via Bluetooth to the owner’s mobile phone – sounding an alarm if the two are separated by more than 5 metres! This provides a brilliant warning if either the phone or wallet is stolen or misplaced.
The exterior of the wallet is constructed from highly durable carbon fibre that will resist all but the most concerted effort to open it, while the interior features a luxurious leather credit card holder and a strong stainless steel money clip. Not the cheapest of things but if your living the boss life a cool $825 USD wouldn’t mean much to you when you spend it on his wallet.

The Daily
It’s not every day a new national newspaper launches, but it’s even more rare — as in, never happened before — for that paper to never touch actual, you know, paper. The Daily ($1/Week, $40/Year) is a new tablet-based daily newspaper that merges traditional reporting with interactive elements, video, photos, and the Internet to create a new vision for what a newspaper can be. Unfortunately, buying a subscription means giving more money to the evil conglomerate that is News Corp., but then again, so does watching Family Guy, and you’re not about to stop doing that anytime soon, either.

Jetlev Flyer
Jetpacks have been a pipe dream for many of us ever since we first watched Thunderball, but the expense, heat, weight, and potential for disaster have kept us grounded. Now the well-heeled among us can experience this unique form of flight with minimal risk aboard the Jetlev Flyer ($99,500). This crazy, water-powered backpack uses a 250hp motor and fuel tank at the water’s surface to send gallons of the wet stuff up to the seat, where it’s blasted back down to the ground, providing a maximum top speed of 22 mph and a maximum height of 28 feet, limited by the hose. All without the need to watch for Goombas.
Why is the blackguy in this video so creepy down below?

Koostik
It is the result of a year of prototype evolution, made entirely of solid wood, by hand, in America.
KOOSTIK is the natural alternative to electronically amplified iPhone sound docks.
Using only the iPhone’s built in speaker, it acoustically amplifies the volume output by 2 to 4 times! Think of a solid body guitar that’s unplugged-you strum the strings and get a little bit of sound. But if those strings are placed over a hollow body guitar and you strum the strings-you suddenly have acoustic music. The same principal is at work with KOOSTIK. Simply place your iPhone into the center cradle, and immediately you hear your music acoustically amplified!
The KOOSTIK is designed so it works with all generations of iPhone and 4th generation iPod Touch. All of the external buttons and controls of the phone are easily accessible while the phone is docked in the KOOSTIK. We believe it is the perfect marriage of Technology and Nature!

Incipio OffGrid iPhone Battery Case
As any heavy smartphone user can attest, battery life is probably the one innovation that hasn’t caught up as quickly as the various platform and other hardware advances. Incipio’s OffGrid Battery Case looks to boost battery life in a sleeker profile. Attempts in the past have mostly yielded bulky designs so for the iPhone addict, this provides a viable option when thickness is of importance. Available starting mid-December with a suggested retail price of $70 USD.

Zeal Transcend GPS Goggle
Via: Zeal Optics
Ski trail smartphone access is great and all, but it’s a little hard to look at Google Maps when you’re flying down the hillside. The Zeal Transcend GPS Goggle ($400-$500) gets around this problem by mounting a micro LCD display right inside the goggles. In addition to showing real-time GPS data, the screen can also offer feedback like speed, latitude/longitude, altitude, vertical distance travelled, total distance travelled, the temperature, and the time, all on a screen that appears to hang roughly six feet in front of you. Glove-friendly buttons and either a polarized or polarized and photochromic lens round out this alpine offering.

For all you HALO Lovers
Much to the confusion/satisfaction of spectators, there was an additional two armed guards in Trafalgar Square where the stunt took place. The jet-pack during flight generated a deafening 140 decibels of sound. That’s a hell of a way to wake up on your morning commute to work
