- cellphone

Asimo, Honda’s consistently-unimpressive robot that they awkwardly walk out for press conferences to prove to everyone that they’re working on vague, future-related projects, is at it again! This time, he’s been spotted “conducting” Yo-Yo Ma and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, caught here on NBC’s Today Show. It’s all quite ridiculous and probably not a little insulting to real-life conductors, but on the up side, Honda donates $1 million to the DSO to improve its music education programs, which is something even my grizzled, jaded heart can’t frown upon.
This isn’t the first round LCD display to show up on the radar, but LG claims that their new 6-inch elliptical and 1.4-inch circular-shaped LCDs are largest in the world. Both versions are capable of displaying up to 262,000 colors with a near 160 degree viewing angle, which could prove useful in devices like photo frames, instrument panels, watches, cellphones, and gaming devices—but anyone hoping for a cute display for their PC may have to wait a while longer.
Your job has you on the go nearly 24/7, which means that every so often you may have to drop everything and shoot out a quick email, jot down important notes or even pick up on an impromptu meeting. The Tempo Chair by Andrea Ruggiero aims to supply a functional piece of furniture where you can conduct this business quickly in a public space without being confined to traditional seating postures. I don’t know whether the Tempo Chair will ever become an actual product, but I would welcome any seating arrangement that does not require me to “get creative” while using my laptop in a public area.
There are many gadgets which are turning green , now its the turn of the remote from one-for-all. It’s a four-in-one device to reduce your collection of remote controls to just one, and has a ‘green’ power-off button. This communicates with an adaptor in a wall socket which can turn off all your gear using a power strip plugged into it. So you won’t be leaving so many things on standby, hurting both your wallet and the environment… and you get to do it all without stretching your legs. Available in the UK and Germany for now, for around $78.
