Zen V Plus To Debut On August

Zen V PlusCreative will try to tire Apple’s Nano with this 5-way joystick controlled player. That is probably the only thing they can stab the Nano with, and eventhough i’m a Zen (Touch) owner myself, a better controlling interface isn’t going to attract that much buyers.

As you see the design is pretty simplistic, the 1.5-inch screen quality is reported to be quite sharp, and a decent battery life of 15 hours (playback). Other addon features like calendar, task manager & clock are included.

Zen V Plus is supposed to hit the retail shelves and online stores early August, with three available versions: 1GB, 2GB & 4GB.

Air Conditioned Shirt, USB Powered

Air Conditioned Shirt, USB Powered
Although it looks like some kind of pump that would help your liver to operate properly, with 90+ degrees, i don’t think you would care that much. The product comes from a previous Sony technician called Kouzi Ichigaya, it obviously aims to make your summer days much lighter and less sweaty. It can be powered by either a USB port, by four AA batteries or your car’s cigars socket.

Smart Grill By Cal Spas

Smart GrillBy checking the homepage of Cal Spas, you can find spas, saunas, hot-tubs, and, how suprising, grills!

This one for instance, carries a hefty price tag of $3000, but for a reason: it doesn’t have any knobs or valves, simply because it’s controlled digitally. The grilling proccess is automatice and the interface is actually a touch-panel.

It includes all these techy features like temperature gauge, timers, convection controls and lighting. In addition, security measures can be taken with this one - it won’t lit unless you press two buttons simultaneously, preventing any accidental activation.

It’s just a shame you won’t be able to enjoy it until next summer, cause it will be available only starting Fall 2006.
