    Samsung Eco-Friendly Cellphone made from Corn!

    Posted in A+Featured Earth, Biodegradable, Consumer, Cool, Design, Earth, Eco-friendly, Educational, Entertainment, Gadgets, Samsung, cell phones by max on the August 15th, 2008 at 10:27 am

    Samsung Eco-Friendly Cellphone made from Corn!

    With everyone in the industry and consumers going green, Samsung has no choice but to follow in people’s footsteps by introducing an Eco-Friendly cellphone made from corn.

    Now, I kinda like this concept of making phones from edibles.  Will they make some new phones out of milk too?  Even better, maybe they can use barley, the same stuff used for making my favorite beverage.

    The E200 features a 1.3 megapixel camera, video messaging capabilities and an MP3 player.

    Although the device will be available in Europe next month, it doesn’t yet have a release date in the United States.

    DIY Cellphone Piano!

    DIY Cellphone Piano!

    Click Here to View in Full Screen Mode

    Wow, it looks like someone had to hook up all their old cellphones to an electric piano.  Each key on the piano responds to a dial button on one of those phones, creating a dial-tone.  Of course, there’s not enough dial-tones to cover all the notes.

    The cell phone piano. Each key on the keyboard is wired into a key on a cell phone - as you play, you are also dialing. The channels are mixed together and amplified through speakers. Every sound the piano makes is generated by one of the four phones. The white keys play notes and the black keys are people saying the number out loud - English on the left hand and Spanish on the right. Some white keys were left over and I made those percussion instruments (the “*”, “END”, and “#” keys).

    Concept Throwing Camera that can capture those random Pics!

    Throwing Camera that can capture those random Pics!

    Here’s a funny throwing camera that will capture pictures at set intervals on its way down.  This seems like an excellent way to capture some random images from slightly above ground level.

    The Flee Digital Camera is designed specifically to take photos after you’ve launched it into the air. The casing for the camera actually looks like it was inspired by some of the fancier balls made for playing fetch with your dog.

    The Flee is bluetooth enabled and will transmit the photos it takes directly to your cellphone. No word on the size and quality of the pictures or on what the usable range away from the cellphone is.

    DIY - How to Dry Your Cellphone with Rice!

    Posted in Consumer, Cool, DoItYourself!, Gadgets, HOWTO, cell phones by max on the June 20th, 2008 at 10:08 am

    DIY - How to Dry Your Cellphone with Rice!

    Well, I have dropped my cellphone in water bunch of times before and all I had to do was to let the phone dry for about a day or two to make it work again.  If you dropped your phone in water, you might want to consider dipping it in a bowl of dry rice and the rice will absorb any water remaining in your cellphone.

    The most important thing to remember is to avoid heat. That means no hair dryers, ovens, microwaves or extended periods in direct sunlight. While heat will certainly evaporate the moisture, it could also warp components and melt adhesives. Those fragile glues are also why you’ll want to avoid dunking the phone in rubbing alcohol (an oft­prescribed tip on the Web). Alcohol is a solvent and can dissolve the internal adhesives. (If you drop your phone in the toilet, it’s okay to wipe the outside with alcohol to disinfect it.)

    Garmin Nuviphone Reviewed!

    Yes, the new Garmin Nuviphone does look a lot like the iPhone but better in some ways especially the GPS part.

    Will it live up to its name?

    Probably, Garmin’s not known for making cellphones so we will have to see how durable and stable this phone really is over time.  Then again, Apple wasn’t known for making any cellphone either.

    Some of the Nuvifone’s features include Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity, as well as tri-band 3.5G HSDPA data access. That said, if we do see this phone in the states, it will likely show up either on AT&T or as an unlocked phone that people can purchase and stic a T-Mobile or AT&T SIM card into. It also has Wi-Fi connectivity, and while the stats don’t go into specifics, I imagine it’s 802.11b/g. Pricing is not yet available, but the phone will be available in the fourth quarter of this year.

    World’s First Projector Cellphone!

    Posted in Consumer, Cool, Design, Educational, Entertainment, Gadgets, cell phones by max on the June 14th, 2008 at 3:27 am

    Here’s a great lookin’ cellphone that also acts as a small projector for your video files and whatnot.

    Anyway, you’re looking at what’s scheduled to be the world’s first projector phone from ChinaKing (aka, CKing). The bits of information we scraped off the machine translated text reveals an LCoS-based projector that relies upon a LED light source and manual focus adjustment. This brick (and we mean brick) is supposedly capable of projecting a 30-inch, 640 x 480 pixel image for up to 2-hours at a time.
