What is Sony Ericsson Promising The World?

by Jay Garrett on September 15, 2009

Sony Ericsson PromiseYou and I both know that when one of the many gadget and tech makers claims “world first”, “thinnest”, “lightest” and such that:

  1. It might well be – but not for long
  2. Someone else has already made that claim
  3. It’s all bluster and marketing

Well – the latest claim from Sony Ericsson is that they’re going to change the way in which we listen to music….. FOREVER!

Now, as Prince once said – Forever is a very long time.

So what on earth has SE got up their sleeves?

Any ideas?

Use the comments below to let me know.

Come back on September 21st to find out.

DigiDude by Quirky – The Cutest Pocket Tripod Ever!

by Jay Garrett on August 12, 2009

digidudeI love novelties especially useful ones :)

The folk over at Quirky have come up with this cute but clever idea and named them DigiDudes.

DigiDude is a keychain with a built-in camera tripod.  Really!

All you have to do is unscrew the DigiDude’s head, pull out his feet, and you’re ready to snap with the help of your cool and instant tripod!

Most of you GadgetyNews readers may be thinking  “Jeeze Jay, even I could design something way more useful than that!” well – show them whatcha got!

quirky engages participants to collaborate in every aspect of product creation – from ideation, design, naming, manufacturing, marketing, right on through to sales. Anyone can participate on quirky.com either by submitting their own product idea for $99, or by voting, rating, and influencing other people’s product ideas. Cooler still, 30¢ of every dollar generated from the sale of a quirky product goes back to these influencers.

Get scribbling then! :)
