Budweiser Telephone!

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Design, Entertainment, Funny, Gadgets, Household by max on the July 6th, 2008 at 7:29 am

Budweiser Telephone!

If you can’t drink it, it’s not beer but if you can talk to it, it could be a Budweiser telephone. (or just a beer bottle and you got too drunk)

Too bad, the beer bottle isn’t real glass, making it too easy to tell it’s not a real beer bottle.

  • Very Vivid Budweiser beer shape phone.
  • Beer Telephone is prefect as a decoration in your bedroom / living-room / bar-table / computer desk / pub / snack store
  • Last Number Redial.
  • The functions of “*” and “#” button are not the same as usual telephones. The”*” button is for Redial, and the “#” button is for Pause. There are no usual “*” and “#” button in the Phone.
  • Enter your desired numbers, suppose the line is busy, just press the reset button and press”*” then the last number will be redialed automatically
  • When rings, pick up your phone, you will be incontact with your caller
  • Just stand the phone upright on any flat surface to hang up, lift to get dial tone.
  • Both Headphones and mike are attached on the body of the Budweiser bottle.

Sharp working on Solar LCD TVs!

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Design, Earth, Educational, Gadgets, Household, News, Solar, TV by max on the July 6th, 2008 at 5:25 am

Sharp working on Solar LCD TVs!

Sharp is working on solar LCD TVs for houses without electricity.

The only question I have is, if they don’t get electricity, will they get any TV reception at all?  (Maybe air reception is good… real good…)

LCD prototype which uses just a quarter of the power (or a third measured annually) of a conventional CRT with the same screen size. That’s low enough to be suitably powered by a Sharp, triple-junction thin-film solar cell module whose surface area is roughly equivalent to that of the LCD screen.

Boycott - Canadians Upset about High Price of iPhone 3G!

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Design, Gadgets, cell phones, iPhone by max on the July 6th, 2008 at 1:08 am

3g-iphone-boycott

Canadians are upset about the high prices of the new iPhone 3G and what will they do to bring down the prices?

They are going to boycott iPhone 3G phones until the telecom companies bring down the price.

What do I think?

It’s a great idea as I have been guilty of boycotting iPhone for the last 2 years or so. (although I do own an iPod Touch, nothing wrong with that)

My boycott has to do with the fact that iPhone hooked up with AT&T’s slow network.  Even with the new 3G, I won’t buy one until “everyone” starts telling me it’s so fast instead of “it’s so slow”.

Here’s some news you can read up on Canadians:

Solution to high iPhone prices is not to buy one
One answer: Don’t buy the iphone

If you have been looking for a door stop that looks like a key, (not that you would ever in a million years) you can get the Key to the Doorstop.

If you need to keep any door open here’s likely the most appropriate door stop, a giant key, simply ingenious (that may be going a bit far).
