 THE
REMEMBER RING is designed to do exactly what its name says it
will: aid in remembering an important date or event. Each ring
has a tiny clock and battery within and, to remind you of a special
day, it gently heats the ring up to 120F for 10 seconds on the
hour, every hour for that entire 24-hour period. The rings are
waterproof and come in yellow and white gold. The web site has
some conflicting information about the ring's availability, so
it is best to call for more information. Assuming, of course,
that you remember.
The myvu Personal
Media Viewer from MicroOptical is designed to work with video iPods to provide users with the
best possible viewing experience. Watching video on the headset
is comparable to looking at a large screen TV, which sort of
floats before your eyes, and the viewer works in all lighting
conditions. It is compatible with 20G, 60G and 80G iPods and
the batteries should last for up to six hours of viewing time,
though the battery pack can also be used to back up your iPod
if it isn't being used for video and will allow for over 20 additional
hours of audio time. Priced at $400.
 Electrolux
has officially launched a "War on White" appliances,
hence the name of their WoW Screenfridges. The refrigerators
are only concepts right now, but they have a graphic panel than
extends across the whole front of the fridge. For added interest,
not to mention luxury and convenience, the design is based on
the basic refrigerator equipped with an LCD screen in the door.
The company plans to extend the concept to a whole series of
appliances, and the senior VP said "it has become clear
that now more than ever, people want unique products that allow
them to express their individuality through their choices."
