I had a good laugh seeing this cute piggy on Gizmodo. You push his hat and flames come out of his nostrils for lighting up your ciggy and when he is out of gas, stick the butane filler up his backside! He!He! Crazy gadgets which bring out the funnier side of life. Nevertheless, they wont find any takers from the one billion plus moslems of the world ;))
Fingerprint scanning may soon be a thing of the past if this new gadget which authenticates and scans finger veins catches on. Hitachi has announced their new biometric cardless credit payment system that reads the patterns of blood vessels in one's fingers which are unique to each individual.If this goes mainstream, we may, in future,shop in convenience and be free from carrying credit cards which are vulnerable to theft.
One more cool gizmo to drool over.
This $32 USB-powered can cooler/warmer has a toggle switch too to determine the temperature.

Now its the turn of webcams to go high-end.Logitech has announced that is going to feature the exclusive and high-resolution Carl Zeiss lenses in its new line of webcams for both desktops and laptops. This will be a first in the normally low-res webcam arena.
Both the cam versions for notebooks and desktops are 2.0 megapixel,have auto-focus and are capable of capturing far clearer video images as some digital cameras than the typically grainy sub-1.0 megapixel webcams.They also have built-in microphone. Both versions will sell for $99 and should be available for sale in stores here within the month.
