Please join me to welcome the world’s first ear-holding time alarming device. This portable device is patented in the United States, Europe, Japan and Taiwan. t seems that alarms have lost their importance as they end up waking the wrong person.

To overcome this common problem, Ear-alarm has been designed with a matchless functionality. This codeless earbud-type headphone functions without a separate audio source.

The Ear-alarm alerts you about your coming stop while commuting in a public transport, reminds you of number of things without disturbing the person sitting next to you.

The presence of small buttons along with a minute LCD in-built display can help in identifying the configuration of the time, which is an unknown territory for me as well.

You can grab this pair from Mini Castle for $14.99 but if you plan to grab a pack of ten then it will cut down the unit price to only $13.99.

The recent offering of Panasonic i.e. the Lumix DMC-FX100 (highest-end point-and-shoot digital camera) comes packed with 12.2 megapixels. With high-speed and oddly wide 28mm f/2.8 lens with 3.6x optical zoom, the camera allows to capture eight frames per second.

The camera has got the personality as it offers 2.5 inch viewscreen but no optical viewfinder. With its optical image stabilization, the camera allows you to shoot HD photos of resolution 1920×1080, the same a 1080p TV set can do.

One can even shoot a HD video on it (could be 720p video) but the drawback is that it’s only at 15 frames per second. With no disclosure about the price, the FX100 will be available in July.
