Practical and Fun Cell Phone Accessories for You and Your Children

February 25th, 2011

Practical and Fun Cell Phone Accessories for You and Your Children

Nowadays, it’s not enough to just have a cell phone, you also have to get a variety of cell phone accessories to protect your phone and allow you to do more with it. Most people don’t go all out and buy every available accessory, but it never hurts to know what’s on the market. What follows are a couple of cool accessories we wanted to share with you in case you may decide to check them out.

There is one type of accessory that lots of people really appreciate because they need it, and that’s an antenna for their cell phones when reception can be a problem. There are many types of antennas you can attach to your cell phone, giving it extra power to boost the signal. You also never know when you may be in a location with poor reception. It doesn’t matter where you are, inside a building or office, and you can’t really use your cell phone due to poor signal reception. If you’re ever in bad weather, or live somewhere that gets severe weather, then an antenna could be the perfect solution for you. So when you think about it, a cell phone antenna can really help you out in those types of situations.

Some people like to get cell phone accessories for fashion purposes, and that’s fine, and one such accessory is the cell phone strap. Any reason that is important to you is cool, and that includes using a strap to make your look a little bit more unique. They are popular with students, but people of all ages can give their phones a unique look with a colorful strap. One practical purpose they can serve is making your cell phone easy to recognize in a place where everybody has a phone and people are putting them down all over the place. Younger people really love these straps, and they come in crazy colors and are themed after pop culture things. Ok, we wanted to throw something in that is more fun than anything else.

Riding a motorcycle can present special challenges when it comes to cell phones, but not any more. So what you can do is use the Bluetooth hands free headset that is made specially for helmets. These accessories are truly well designed to be water proof as well as employing special types of noise filters so you’re able to talk on your cell phone. The kind of helmet you wear will determine the particular model of hands free headset you’ll want to get. They are versatile if you want to use them while riding something like an ATV or anything else. Whatever you feel you can safely do while talking on your cell phone, you can use these cell phone accessories. It’s true that cell phone accessories have now become very important items to have for many good reasons. There are other very cool accessories available on the market, but we feel some are more important than others.

Sparks Fly in San Francisco

February 9th, 2011


Haptica Movable Braille timepiece


New York, NY (PRWEB) October 7, 2008

A new exhibition opens this week in San Francisco that profiles the work of today’s finest design talent.

The Spark 2008 Design Awards put more than 600 entries under the microscope last month, with the best being selected by a jury of prestigious names in global design. The winners are now on display at America’s most exciting new design hot spot – the dazzling Autodesk Design Gallery, at One Market Street, San Francisco.

“All the Spark entrants and entries tell wonderful stories,” explains Peter Kuchnicki, executive director of Spark. “There were a great number of designs in the competition and it was very competitive. The 14 jurists had a daunting task and did a fine job.”

Spark is a fresh, modern qualification system that recognizes new processes and technology and seeks to involve people and ideas from untapped sources. Designers from all levels and skill-sets are invited to participate, be they professional, novice or student. This year’s competition attracted designers, art directors, architects, design firms, manufacturers, institutions and ad agencies.

84 designs won bronze, silver, gold or the ultimate Spark! Award. These top 17 winners secured a Spark! commendation:

Haptica Braille Watch

Designer: David Chavez

“Haptica is a moveable Braille timepiece that provides a quick and accurate time reading. The product is unique in providing a real-time readout in Braille which the reader scans along with their finger to check the time”

Grow Bike

Designer: Springtime

“Children need a lot of different vehicles in their first 4 years, creating a lot of cost and occupying a lot of space. The GrowBike is actually a set of parts that can be assembled into 4 different bike designs, step by step as your child grows.”

Treepac

Designer: Essential Design

“Ever wonder how many cardboard boxes the world really needs? Treepac is a reusable shipping container intended to replace them for most business-to-business, business-to-customer and person-to-person shipping. The pack is meant to be used like a cardboard box but can serve again and again.”

Rainwater Hog

Designer: Sally Dominguez

“Harvesting rainwater is a smart idea but designs have been basic until now. Rainwater HOG is a rain rescue and storage tank designed as a water-filled building block. It was designed by an Australian architect battling with drought who saw a lack of options for domestic-scale urban rainwater catchment.”

NYC Condom

Designer: Yves Behar, Fuseproject

“Vaguely reminiscent of a condom shape warped into the surface of one’s leather wallet, the NYC Condom Dispenser needed to be distinctive anywhere from trendy restaurants to homeless shelters. It has the equivalent impact of that of the fire-hydrant: immediately recognizable for its simple function, in this case to distribute condoms.”

Livraria da Vila

Designer: Isay Weinfeld

“A beautiful bookstore in São Paulo. Whichever direction one looks at, there are books, and an unpretentious feel, like a used-book store, making customers at ease to browse the shelves for the books they want, to leaf through or even read them in the couches and easy chairs scattered around the multiple stories.”

Karbon Faucet

Designer: Kohler

“The ultimate tap. Karbon has two water flow options; laminar, chosen for its continuous tube-like water flow, and a spray for cleaning and prep work, controlled by a valve hidden in the countertop and operated by the touch of a joystick with a smooth, elegant motion. It’s dynamic, functional, sculpture.”

Eton Field Radio

Designer: Dan Harden, Whipsaw

“Two consumer field radios for use outdoors and in the home. With hand-cranks and solar panels, they are designed to always work, suiting outdoor types and survivalists. There’s a two-way walkie talkie, cell phone charger, flashlight, siren, and SOS light beacon.”

Dyson Airblade

Designer: James Dyson

“Whilst developing air knives for a different project, Dyson found that the force of air created by its Dyson Digital Motor (DDM) would scrape water from hands, leaving them completely dry. The company has gone on to build the fastest, most hygienic hand dryer on the market.”

Swarovski Morpheus

Designer: Yves Behar, Fuseproject

“Swarovski challenged Behar’s team to ‘reinvent’ the chandelier for its ‘Crystal Palace’ collection at Art Basel Miami. The design deconstructs what a chandelier is, and explores what it could be. Rather than just a static, traditional object to be viewed, Morpheus is a chandelier that changes its form, becoming animated, through interaction with the viewer.”

Neat Receipts & NeatDesk

Designer: Smart Design

“Mobile and desktop scanners that are part of a series of products designed to help you get rid of receipts and paperwork. Best of all, the products feature hardware and software designs that have been stripped of visual noise to simplify the product and process.”

Vite – Rescue Stretcher

Designers: Kim, Lin & Zea

“A collapsible stretcher designed to rescue the injured patient as fast as possible in the snow. The backpack shell works as a sled, allowing a patient to be carried by one person. Other products on the market are designed to be used by two people. The Vite can be be easily opened in order to minimize the time spent setting up the sled for an injured patient.”

OLPC Yoyo

Designer: Yves Behar, Fuseproject

“An ingenious laptop charger designed to charge the pioneering One Laptop Per Child (OLPC), without the need for mains electricity. Designed like a yoyo toy, the strap is looped through the unit allowing for easy connection to a chair leg, tree branch, etc and resistant against the mechanical force exerted by the user.”

OLPC XOXO

Designer: Yves Behar, Fuseproject

“The XO-2 laptop will be about half the size of the first generation One Laptop Per Child (OLPC), being about the size of a book. The new design is lighter and easier for children to carry with them to and from school or wherever they go. Dual-touch sensitive displays will be used to enhance the e-book experience, with a dual-mode display similar to the current XO laptop.”

Moen Cascata

Designer: Essential Design

“A bathroom faucet that “pours” by tipping the spout like one would tip a pitcher of water. It’s an attempt to recover some of the natural flowing behavior of water and reconnect people with the aesthetic qualities and personal meaning associated with water and cleansing.”

Mobile Performance Venue

Designer: Various architects

“A lightweight and easily transportable venue that is also a unique and iconic structure. When it becomes the Arts Alliance Productions’ home in 2009, it will be the largest mobile venue in the world. A 90m x 60m oval, it ranges from 10m to 17m tall, and has 3900m2 of covered space. The central performance space (2000m2) will hold a standing audience of 3500 people.”

Fuego Modular

Designer: Robert Brunner, Ammunition Group

“A bold, new and customizable outdoor kitchen that expands on Fuego’s trendsetting social hub concept. Fuego Modular has an aluminum frame to accommodate grills, burners, warming drawers, storage, and refrigeration units.”

Finally No Wires! Guide To Using an EVDO Internet Access Card & Router for Trade Shows

February 5th, 2011


Richmond, VA (PRWEB) April 6, 2006

In February 2006 D-Link, a well known router company, and Kyocera, a well known cell phone products manufacturer, launched a product that will revolutionize how trade show exhibitors will gain access to broadband Internet access.

In most cases exhibitors didn’t have many options when it came to Internet access at trade shows, in fact there was really only one. You either rented it from the show production company or went without. At some shows the daily access rate was $ 500 or more. Now there is an option. In the past year wireless access through cellular phone systems has increased at a staggering rate and that access is now available in a format that can be shared by multiple users.

The technology is called EVDO and this is what cellular carriers Verizon Wireless and Sprint use to distribute a wireless broadband signal to its subscribers. A typical setup includes an account with one of these providers, a laptop and an access card that plugs into the PC card slot or PCMCIA Slot. This setup was fine if only one user wanted access, but what if you wanted to create a wired or wireless network?

This is where the “revolution” takes place…the EVDO router. This router, available at

Kyocera and at D-Link in the near future, enable you to take the access card and share it via a wired or wireless access. Similar technologies existed before this router came out, but they weren’t billed as affordable options. The Kyocera EVDO Router has a street price of $ 250 – $ 300. These are the items you will need in order to use this technology.

Internet Access Account – $ 60-$ 100 per month* – Verizon Wireless or Sprint

EVDO PC Card – $ 50-$ 200**

EVDO Router – $ 250-$ 300***

Total – $ 1740-$ 2900 – based on 24 Months of Service

*see service provider’s websites for details and offers.

**see service provider’s websites for details and offers.

***see hardware provider’s websites for details and offers.

Currently, most service providers require you to sign a 24 month contract for both a phone and Internet access to get their lowest rate so please check to see if service (Verizon Coverage, Sprint Coverage) and what plans are available in your area. The total cost of 24 months of service and hardware can be equal to what one company pays for access at one show so you can see the incredible value. You also have the use of a technology that enables you to have access to the Internet 24/7/365 without the need of any wires.

When EVDO is coupled with state-of-the-art portable batteries then the technology can be used in ways never imagined. Imagine strapping on a framed camping backpack that has a portable battery, laptop, and an EVDO card plugged into the EVDO router. Also plugged into the router is a web-cam that has been attached to a helmet that is on your head. You now have a wireless, portable, go anywhere webcasting solution. Couple this setup with a wireless bluetooth headset that plugs into an EVDO phone (specialized phone that can be used with the router) and now you can provide interactive tours of the show floor with two-way communication that is broadcast back to a website. Other uses include POS systems and credit card authorization systems.

The way I see it, EVDO will not only save thousands of exhibitors’ money but it has created a new level of connectivity for our industry. It will also be used to create a whole new category of trade show experiences and for me that is the most exciting part!

Founded in 2003, A Smash Hit! Trade Show Displays is a leading Internet distributor of trade show display booth, and exhibit products primarily servicing North America. As a wholesaler we can offer display products at half the price as local suppliers. We offer full graphics design, printing and can work on displays as small as tabletop units to larger island style displays.
