he Blaze Blink Now will forever stare at you, scarily, sexily

Okay, this product is crazy, or perhaps spooky to some. At least the use of it is crazy enough. You see, people get lots of eyebags and eyesore due to staring at LCD or CRT (still around?) too much. That’s where your panda eyes come from. Reluctant to go to sleep at 3AM, and blaming insomnia when you’re madly farming at Facebook. Here comes this product. The actual usage of this tiny LCD with legs is to hang it on your screen. It presents an eye, always looking at you, lazily and nonchalantly blinking. In theory, if you see an eye blinking you’ll blink more often yourself and cut down on eye strain. But truthfully, who knows there might be a webcam in it to record all your nasty moments when all your family members are asleep.

Barnes & Noble has just officially announced the Nook Color in the US. The eReadergadget features a 7-inch (1024 x 600) IPS display with capacitive touch, and is powered by the mighty Google Android 2.0 OS (sadly no Froyo here).

Duel Savings Bank

SleekIdentity’s DUEL Savings Bank lets you battle it out to see who can save more. Put your coins in and let simple physics determine the winner. It uses a dry erase marker so you can label the white porcelain on the competing sides with whatever you want. I’d go with something like beer/food and I don’t have to tell you how that’s going to play out. Boy am I hungry. The red silicone band around it comes off to take the money out (or to shift some coinage to the other side, you cheater).

Kush gadget will tone your breast

Hi ladies, are you afraid of saggy breasts? They may look good with a good bra, but once you let go of the bra, they somehow look rather awfully sad, right? Don’t worry, as someone has a solution for you! And all the magic is done with a plastic cylinder! Just slip the Kush in your cleavage before you wander off to slumberland, and you wake up with immaculate boobs. Or so the makers claim.

Inventor Cathinka Chandler said: “As women age, wrinkles and folds can form between the breasts. Because I sleep on my side, I learned that gravity and the pressure of my breasts resting on top of each other was the culprit.”

The American gadget, which comes in three handy sizes and seven colours, sells for between £29.99 and £39.99. It is aimed at women with C-cup or larger, nursing mothers and those with implants. The Kush will also be available in the UK, as it’s about to be launched in Britain by Joanne Darbost from Lincolnshire.

‘I wish it had been available when I was pregnant as the answer for those uncomfortable nights, when a good sleep is so desperately needed.’ – she said.

Now, why a plastic cylinder, and not a mineral bottle? Or a Coca-Cola glass bottle? I can even think of so many; some of them can even vibrate!

Expresso GPS, a SatNav for dads.

It’s common to find GPS systems for cars, but we’ve also seen a few that’s specially made for unkers playing golf. As the golf course is so huge, they might get lost, who knows? But now, this Expresso GPS (note: undrinkable) will show the unkers which holes they should hit (at the golf course mind you!), and which way to go home when the missus called.

Running on a customized operating system, it’s linked to a huge chunk database with over 32,500 golf courses globally. That’s a good thing, if your mistress is half way at the other side of the globe. The operating system is called iGolf, so don’t be surprised if Apple goes buying this company and sell the ‘i-Expresso’ 10 times more! You heard it 1st at 2dayblog.com! Even comes with the utility to map your own course if your local ones aren’t listed, as your mistress might be in a totally deserted island with nobody other than a million-dollar chalet and a golf course. The Expresso GPS also shows 2D and 3D way-points, so at least it’s not very dated.

Sleepy Alarm Clock Concept for lazy bumps who steal extra time to sleep

Pedro Gomes has designed the Sleepy Alarm clock concept that allows you to sleep a little bit longer every morning. Using this alarm clock, you can activate the snooze mode by simply moving the ball back and forth. A cute way to snooze your alarm clock early in the morning, though I think this product should be banned for lazy people like me. This alarm clock also features a cute design that will fit perfectly in the children’s room. Not very sharp, but then I still think it looks like a harmless weapon.

Uplink Audio Strap System offers solar power for runners on the run

The Uplink Audio Strap System is a weird concept. Now why would I say it’s weird? Now for start, it gives those joggers another option to listen to music on the go, if they hate the plug-in ear buds. That means it’s a great stuff for nerdy joggers who love to show off their latest gadgets. But then, the concept from Adam Hammerman has a very high-tech ultrasound speakers, which can connect to nearly all your mobile devices and portable music players. It’s so high tech, that no matter how loud you blast the music, only you can hear the sounds. Others by-passers won’t be able to hear a single hum from this new toy. But if you’re going to show off this to the whole world, why restrict the sounds to only yourself? Totally redundant!

But of kush, the tech doesn’t stop there. This new concept is trying to make you go green with the integrated solar panel, which is flexible. Though it’s just a concept, but I wonder how long you can power up the player with such small solar panels.

The Droid X got dissected!

Looks like its getting into the trend, that there’s always mad scientists out there all over the world. Unlike us commoners who would only stare at our new and shiny gadgets in all their glory, there’s bound to be some people out there that is not getting enough drollness from just looking at their new toy.

Max from Droid X network, a blog dedicated to all goodies Droid X, videoed the whole gory dissecting process to have us look into the organs of the Droid X. Head up after the jump for the video. *Note: Not a problem for those faint hearted too!

Control your television with this uber cool flying saucer with buttons.

This, this, this is the MUST-GET item for the Christmas sales season, when it gets released, if it gets released. Originally designed to be the remote for a GenosTV set-top box, the company is busting the Cyclops out into its own product that should hit the market in time for the end-of-year buying season.

At 1st glance, this weird yet hi-tech looking orb controller seemed to be coming from a Star Wars era. Pushing the middle round button will show a 3D projectile of the people that you wanted to talk to. And those entire QWERTY keyboards will bust out and hover to form an illuminated virtual keyboard like in Star Trek. Virtual 3D conference using a mobile orb player. Nah, all those are just my day-dreaming skills.

This is a wireless universal controller by Genos called Cyclops, which claimed to be ergonomically superior for two-handed use. Besides connecting to electronic devices using wireless, it also has integrated Bluetooth to get along with your handheld devices. You can even text your friends using this round orb disc, and throw it to your pet dog and let it fetch after that. There’s another version coming soon which will make friends with your gaming consoles.

“This is the coolest controller you have ever seen,” enthused Genos founder Rob Shambro, in a statement. “It is just the beginning of many bleeding edge products and services coming from our company. We are typing more and more with one or two fingers. The Cyclops could be the wireless keyboard of the future.”
Reportedly designed by Shambro initially by means of Play-Doh to shape the concept, the Cyclops is essentially a disk with a smooth QWERTY keypad, large thumb-driven media controls at the bottom, and a modified D-pad with a large button right in the middle. Genos asserts the Cyclops will be the “most ergonomically correct” controller on the planet, “engineered perfectly” for two-handed use.

Care for a jog in the pool?

This new headphone is called Mi-Sports, but it’s not related to the Wii-Sports in any single way. Yet it is not your typical headphone either. This headphone is waterproof! Now who’d like to join me for a jog in the lake?

The Mi-Sport is a headphone with integrated mp3 player. 4GB of memory built-in, this player supports MP3s, WMAs, and AAC files, along with 7-hours of singing time. 7 hours should be enough for your snorkeling activities. The Mi-Sport is waterproof, not splash-proof or water-resistant. Now why would I say that you could use this while snorkeling, is because it comes along with a pair of water-blocking sponge earplugs which allows you to listen to your Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber while swimming with Nemo. There’s also voice navigation like the iPod Shuffle which reads out the name and track of the songs as there’s no screen. There’s a Bluetooth version of this headphone too.

Now that really stuns me, as why do you need waterproof headphones anyway? The only few peoples that I can think of buying this would be those swimming athletes and gymnasts, as well as some snorkeling trainers. Suddenly I have the urge to get this and do break dance in the water with Nemo, though that’s quite impossible for now. This thing is still not available in the market.
