Dump those buzzing, rattling, beeping and croaking alarm clocks and open your eyes in an all new way that’s not only soothing but doesn’t irritates too. We are talking about the all new concet in the alarm and clock category- the visual alarm clock, that is all set to revolutionise the way you wake up.
Simple yet effective, this concept comes to you in form of a pillow called the glo Pillow, that exposes your eyes to bright yellow glowing light that gradually gets brighter over a period of 40 minutes. Brainchild of Ian Walton of embryo, in collaboration with Eoin McNally, it is a unique LED fabric fitted inside the surface of the pillow that makes the glo Pillow shine and wake you up in a never befoe manner.
Just a concept till now, the glo Pillow can be an effective product as it gets materialized!

Two kinds of people would love the gadget that I’m going to tell you about next. First category includes those who are in love with comfort and the others who love comfort as well as are crazy about gadgets to the extent of being geeks.
We are talking about these ‘beauty and geek jeans’ designed by Erik De Njis that feature a chic keyboard in front together with built in pair of crotch rocking speakers in the knees.
Add to it an easy to access mouse in the back pocket of the jeans and a (wrongly) located joystick controller feature just behind the front zipper and it makes this jeans a perfect computing solution for the geek guy and geek fashion!

Most of us would agree with Aditi when she says that who would say no to a single day of relaxation at a spa even if it means digging out a big hole in the pocket. But if you are a bit greedier for comfort and relief and look forward to an extended session whenever you want then get home this new innovation called the Spa Capsule.
This wonder gizmo brings the luxury of a classy spa right in the comfort of your home.
Talk about the comforts and features, the Spa Capsule loaded with an LCD panel that plays the preset programs, adjustable steam therapy, infrared therapy, 14 Vichy shower heads, a cooling face breeze, aromatherapy reservoir, music facility and capsule remote control to name a few.
If features are as lavish as these, price has got to be equally great and yes, the Spa Capsule is a little high-priced at $20,000, but I guess those eyeing at utmost luxury won’t mind shelling out that much.
Now, the luxury story doesn’t end here, if you still want more, you can upgrade this basic version with a range of spa treatments in a hydrotherapy tub with 12 Vichy showerheads, voice activation, color therapy lights, ozone therapy, a built-in LCD TV. Once loaded with these features the Spa Capsule will cost you $36,000.

Not just kids but even adults specially the gadget lover adults are in love with Disney. I’m saying this as every now and then we keep writing about one or the other Disney famed gadgets. The latest in the series is the all new USB ‘mi-keys’ from Buffallo.
Six of them are available in two versions namely 2Gb and 4GB. The choice falls between The RUF2-DCNR series, which falls under the 2 GB capacity while the other i.e the RUF2-DCNR2 series is available lavish 4GB of storage space.
Talk about looks, then I don’t think there should be any prizes for guessing that they are loaded with Disney characters, particularly the former model which will feature 4 different pictures of Disney Characters.
With this I would like to give a suggestion, you can present the Mickey mouse version to your Bro and if you have a dear sister, then the Minnie mouse is perfect for her. Though the smart minds can also think about impressing their love with this hi-tech gift.
