Especializada em transformar produtos normais em acessórios tecnológicos, a marca austríaca Urban Tool espera lançar ainda neste ano um travesseiro com conexão Bluetooth, que pode ser sincronizado com um aparelho de telefone. A idéia do aparelho é fazer com que as pessoas possam atender o celular ou fazer ligações sem sair da cama.

O novo produto foi apresentado durante a Cebit 2008, maior evento de tecnologia do mundo, que começou na terça-feira (4) e acaba neste domingo (9), em Hannover, na Alemanha.

O travesseiro vem com controle de volume e tem autonomia para oito horas de conversa e 300 horas em stand-by. Deve chegar às lojas no Natal, a um preço de 350 euros (R$ 903).

Para o ano que vem, a Urban Tool planeja lançar um suporte para o iPhone em forma de bicho de pelúcia. O foco do produto, chamado Urban McHugky, são usuários um tanto desajeitados, que perdem o aparelho em razão de suas dimensões ou que têm dificuldades em manter limpa a tela sensível ao tope.

Com dimensões consideráveis, o Urban McHugky é mais fácil de ser achado e protege a tela do celular da Apple. Quando o iPhone começa a tocar, os olhos do bicho de pelúcia começam a brilhar.

No ritmo

Durante a feira, a marca austríaca Urban Tool também desfilou um colete que permite ao usuário controlar o iPod por meio de botões presentes na roupa. É possível escolher o arquivo, ajustar o volume e fazer parar ou começar a música.

Os botões são feitos com fios de cobre inseridos no tecido: ao serem pressionados, eles enviam a mensagem para o iPod, que deve ficar acoplado à roupa. De acordo com a empresa, o colete, que foi feito especialmente para ouvir música durante a prática do esporte, pode ser lavado normalmente, sem risco de choques ou estragos. O produto foi lançado no ano passado, em uma edição limitada de 2.000 unidades, mas ainda há alguns exemplares disponíveis no mercado, ao preço de 100 euros (R$ 258).

A Urban Tool deve lançar ainda neste ano uma bolsa com as mesmas características. O usuário poderia, então, controlar o aparelho sem precisar tirá-lo do compartimento.

Most interesting is the Ai Guru U1 VoIP phone. It plugs in with USB, and in addition to letting you make calls to all your broke-ass friends, you can also use it to browse and listen to music stored on the Eee PC. Next up is the Eee AP, which acts as a 802.11g wireless access point and little else -- think AirPort Express minus the sexy. The USB "3.5G HSDPA Card" is just as straightforward, with GSM900 / 1800 / 1900 and WCDMA2100 / 1900 / 850, and download speeds up to 3.6Mbps. The slim DVD-RW drive and the totally generic headsets aren't spicing things up either, which you can probably tell is par for the course here. There's no word on price or availability for any of these yet, but we're guessing none of them will break the bank -- they sure don't look it.

Thanks to the company I work in I was able to visit the Cebit2008 exhibition in Hannover last week. I've been there for three days - that is not really enough to see everything but I have some remarks that I would like to share with in a quick manner ;) :

What I really liked:

• the city - tidy, with outstanding communication - subway,trams,buses - I could get fast everywhere I wanted,
• the fairground (Messe) - really huge and some of the halls were really impressive - especially the huge wooden roof above one of them,
• the germans have 'ordnung' (order) everywhere - nothing is a coincidence - they have everything arranged and ready to rock,
• some of the exhibitors had some really nice booths - T-mobile and samsung generally kicked ass,
• new asus laptops (the small ones with leather) - great designs and small sizes,
• the olympus e420 with the 50mm pancake lens - cool product - good that Olympus resurected the Pancake:),
• the samsung quad-hd 50 inch display - well that wasn't the most reasonable thing out there (imagine that there is no way to record and hold the data of this quality - blu-ray discs are only 25gigs ;)) - but anyways it looked great,
• a big SUN container on a trailer which acted as a liquid-cooled mobile server :-) cool idea and it really worked,
• iF Design exhibition (the hall was always empty:)) where you could see and touch everything listed in the iF Product Design Yearbook 2008,
• IBM booth - everyone could see most of their high tech servers and storage solutions - working and running - and the staff was trained to answer all geek questions - good!

And what I didn't:

• the weather and german food,
• everything was extremely crowded,
• Samsung didn't show the cell phones they were yelling about - they didn't want to confirm them either,
• Sony's response to iPhone - the Xperia X1 was shown to the public - but it didn't work - what a shame... the forgot about batteries,
• the design of new Sonyericsson mobiles - awful!
• EEEEEEEEEEE PC - that is so awful - it looks and works worse than most of it's chinese competitors !!!
• the Asus Lamborghini models and accessories - still look like crap,
• Microsoft and other software companies had really ugly booths,
• Huge amounts of modded cases/computers/laptops - without any style i guess - just some bling-bling with thousands of colors,
• Benchmarks of the new Geforce (which you could see on several booths - like asus) - the 9800gx2 - were disappointing - the card runs only 30% faster than a 8800gtx - a shame - I hope it was a bad dream and they will do something with the drivers...the card inspite of having two chips has only two ramdacs (my guess) so it has only two monitor interfaces (a fact) - instead of four...another disadvantage.
• Intel called their new products ATOM - the name resembles me of the RSS competitor atom... not really a good one - they should stick to Pentium and Core2.

A small conclusion:

Generally the exhibition was fruitful for the companies there - new contacts and new clients for them. ... but nothing really new for the public.

Nun breche ich also am kommenden Samstag in aller Herrgottsfrüh nach Hannover auf und das erste mal werde ich Spitzentechnologie live betrachen können. Wer mich kennt der weis das ich der totale Technikfreak bin. Was darf ich am Samstag nicht vergessen mitzunehmen? Richtig! Mein N73 um auch ja alles in Bildern zu dokumentieren. Am Sonntag berichte ich euch dann was ich alles erstaunliches entdeckt habe.
