For the ladies that enjoy bright and shining stones to catch her eye, this bracelet would be a great purchase. It would even work for a somewhat tech savvy mom for Mother’s Day. Which isn’t that far off, so you might want to be looking now for a gift for your Mom. This stainless steel bracelet would be hard to overlook on the arm of any person. Even if there were no shiny stones, this would still be eye catching with the bright silver coloring.
Although this looks like just a bracelet, it conceals within a thumb drive to store away any needed data. The bracelet can be purchased in either the all silver or with gold accents. The gold version still has the silver band. From the looks of things, the thumb drive stays attached to the bracelet. That would make it so that you’d have to take it off during use. It comes with 8GB of storage for $33 from Brando.

Trying to circumvent the need to choose between getting a wide-angle shot and zooming in for details, a team of researchers at Princeton led by electric engineer Jason Fleischer have developed a new method to get the best of both worlds, by passing the light through a “nonlinear crystal” that would normally distorts the picture. A computer algorithm then pieces together the data and, as they claim, produces a wide-vew image that also manages to capture the finer points otherwise missing when using conventional techniques. The goal is to build “super-resolution” microscopes for better medical diagnostics, but the group also sees uses in the fields of data encryption and lithography / microchip production. Is it too much to ask that our next Canon or Nikon have this a standard feature?

We knew you’d do the right thing Cowon, we just knew it. Barely a fortnight after the company introduced its most capacious S9 to date over in South Korea, said player has made its way stateside… at least that’s the impression that we get. Listed now as “in stock” on Amazon, the 32GB Titanium / Black unit is shown as being sold by JetAudio, which just so happens to be Cowon’s official online home for sales. If you surf over to the S9 section on JetAudio’s website, however, the 16GB model is still listed as the largest one available. We’re guessing the latter’s admin hasn’t had time to update things between that Friday night rave and that six pack of Dos Equis on Saturday, but we hear Amazon has a pretty good reputation, anyway.

We reckon a good 97% of you will never need an audio mixer of this magnitude, but regardless, Calrec’s digital audio console is a behemoth of knobs and sliders that should be easy on the eyes for just about anyone. Shown off at last month’s 2009 National Association of Broadcasters show, each control changes color to reflect the assigned function or group, and each has its own display for monitoring individual status. Above those rest large OLED displays and touchscreen monitors for even more feedback. Audiophiles can hit up the read link for all the specs, and be sure to check after the break for a full-sized shot. Now can someone figure out how to get Super Monkey Kong up and running on this thing?
Sometimes it’s a bit refreshing to find a handheld mouse that doesn’t track your motion, just in case you feel like waving your arms wildly and not having it screw up your apps. The Weramouse V2 handheld trackball mouse works wirelessly from up to about 26 feet away, using what we gather is a USB dongle to sync. Its Li-ion battery is claimed to be good for up to 28 hours and charges via USB. Cost is $99 NZD, which translates to $56 in US dollars. At one point the site listed a V3 model with a trackpad — same specs otherwise, with a $199 NZD / $113 US price tag — and while it’s since been removed, the product page is still available via the great halls of the internet archives.
