UBIQUO recently came out with a new set of ear phones called the UBQ. The UBQ earphones bring stereo sound quality to your ears. The earphones are made from non-pvc material so it is eco friendly; to those that are sensitive about materials used. The earphones come in a black, white, and pink, very easy to use, fits snug into the ear, and coordinates very well with any device. It can be a hassle to detangle earphones but since this is made from non-pvc material it detangles very easily. Trying to avoid all the hustle and bustle around you? I bet the perfect earphones will help you block out the surrounding sounds and do the job, perhaps the UBQ?
Another accessory for you Apple users. Instead of using the cord to sync your iPhone or iPod, you can try this, the new Sync Stand by Sinjimoru. This Sync Stand is connected with a USB cable and can be used to charge your apple device or just to sync your files. Obviously it is simple to use because you just plus the USB in and put your Apple device on the Sync Stand. The Sync Stand is made of clear material with the white Apple logo so it goes well with any of your Apple devices. It is compatible with most of the Apple products and also comes in three different colors, cream white, pastel pink, and ocean blue. The design of the Sync Stand is clean and simple, small in size, easy to travel with, and works as a cradle for your Apple device. I really like the design of the Sync Stand because it’s clean and simple, a side view is in the shape of a curled “C” shape. I think this Sync Stand would look great on any desk, so ditch the annoying cords and cradle your Apple device with this cute accessory.
Imagine you’re sitting down at your dining area but you don’t have to get up to turn on/off the light. Now, you may think that it’s just being lazy, but the light switch is the thing of the past. Featured at the LED EXPO & OLED EXPO 2010 in Korea, the Touch & Touch light fixture was presented and was a big hit amongst all the other items at the EXPO. The Touch & Touch is a light fixture that does not need a light switch attached on the wall. It has a contemporary look but not too modern so it does not clash with other appliances or furniture you may have. It comes in a variety of colors to choose from and has a shiny glossy look to it. The Touch & Touch was the winner of the design idea award this year and impressed everyone at the EXPO with its simple but very efficient design. This light fixture diminishes the purpose of a light switch on the wall so that you can conveniently turn on, off, and adjust the light by the push of a button on the light fixture itself. There are four buttons representing four different light settings along with the essential on/off button, the Wine mode, Reception mode, Dining mode, and Reading mode. Each light setting has a different brightness according to the selection of the mode, which you cannot do on a regular light fixture unless a dimmer is installed. This product seems very easy to use and very efficient for daily use. So enjoy a romantic evening with dim lighting, or do a little reading with the prefect brightness, have a little fun trying out different lighting in your house.

Do you remember that “Clap-on~! Clap-off~!” commercial? I’m sure everyone does, if you’re old enough to remember. A device that turns on the light with one clap and turns off the light with two claps. I still remember that commercial because it was so corny, but hey~ it was very catchy and it became one of the most popular commercials of all time. Well if the sound of a clap can control the function of your light switch, of course now with better technology there’s a better device. A company called Aeon Flux came out with the VoiSwitch. A voice activated device that turns on and off your light throughout your house. The VoiSwitch has a name, Naraeya, basically the protocol to give commands. For example, “Naraeya, turn off the light on the front porch,” “Naraeya, turn on the light in master bedroom.”
The device itself is white in color, sleek in design, and aesthetically very pleasing to put on any wall. It has three microphones that can pick up sound with ease and has great voice recognition. Other than just turning on and off the light you can put a timer on any light fixture, kind of like a sleep timer on your TV. You set the amount of time you want the light to be turned on and then when the time is up it shuts off the light. You can even ask for the time, “Naraeya, what time is it?” and it will tell you exactly what time it is.
You can pretend like you have a smart house, command or ask the VoiSwitch and Naraeya will follow through. This is something that you can see in an awesome bachelor pad! This device might even keep you company on those lonely nights, who knows? Make yourself feel closer with your home by talking to the VoiSwitch, “Naraeya, …”
A cute dog shaped speaker that plays anything you plug in! I found this product to be very simple, user friendly, and very cute in design. idear has a line of small portable speakers that are attachable to nearly anything you can tie it to. Mostly people attach it to their cell phones for easy access. Although their original cube design has a simple and clean look, they came out with a new design that is cuter and more appealing to the eye. The new design is in the shape of a dog and can be attached by its string around the collar. It is very cute, portable, and user friendly. The speaker is simply turned on when the audio cable is plugged in and turned off when the plug is taken out. Also the speaker can be charged by being plugged into any PC USB port, and an LED light lets you know that it is charging. A no brainer, that even a little kid can use it!! idear’s products have a concept of simple design and being close to nature, so all their products are made from wood. It gives it an earthy feeling, instead of the plastic products we use daily. A combination of the digital era and the old natural feeling of the wood material is very different and very appealing. So if you need a portable speaker that is user friendly and cute to carry around with you, why not this one?

Everybody wants to feel secure and safe in their own home, and the best way to make sure your home is protected is to have a good door lock.

The door can be unlocked by entering in your number password or if a fingerprint needs to be changed, the keypad can be used to program the different options.
Now, it may be questionable because you wonder how reliable can a digital door lock be, right?? Well the Gateman F-100 is made from Iron and Fiber glass, which means it’s STURDY!! Fiber glass in fact is the material used to make helmets and can hold up its original shape in high temperatures. The Gateman F-100 has an advanced hook mechanism, making it 10 times stronger than any digital door lock out on the market. Which means it is 10 times harder to break in a house with this door lock installed.
