If you can give me a bag that will survive the toughest of times - a rain in the middle of a hiking trip, or a fall from a bike ride -- that will be awesome. The bag has to endure anything.

I may go for the Endo courier bag from Spire USA. Spire USA offers laptop bags with outstanding protection, convenience and versatility. Features are amazing:

Features include:

* TripleShock padding system
* Mesh water bottle pocket
* Beefy 2" single-buckle closure

Secure flash drives: protect files when you travel

0 comments | Thursday, October 09, 2008

Carrying digital files when traveling is never a difficult task. Most people have flash drives tagged along all the time where important computer files are quickly stored. But are flash drives (thumb drives) protected from unauthorized access to your files? Most of them are not.
Lately, a new breed of flash drives comes in - chock full of military-strength encryption and passwords and keypad combinations that must be entered before the data can be accessed. I know a few that I really like.

IronKey Secure Hardware-Encrypted Flash Drive
It designed to be the world's most secure flash drive, protects your data, on-line passwords, and Internet privacy. Now you can safely carry your digital life with you wherever you go - with confidence and peace of mind.

Ironkey Personal 2GB - $90.27 Amazon Store
IronKey 4GB - $128.80 Amazon Store
Ironkey Basic 8GB Flash - $258.30 Amazon Store

2. Pocket Safe
The Personal Pocket Safe is a hack-proof device that connects to your computer through a USB port. All data is encrypted and can only be accessed by entering your customizable PIN on your Pocket Safe. Once unlocked, Pocket Safe software launches and provides pre-formatted fields for easy entry of all important records and files.

Personal Pocket Safe - $59.95 Amazon Store

3. Corsair Flash Padlock
It gives users the confidence of having a hardware-secured lock to protect their data on an USB drive. Featuring auto-lock hardware security, Flash Padlock is the best way to secure your data while on the go.

Tonchidot and Takahito Iguchi

0 comments | Wednesday, September 17, 2008

Look what a language barrier could do to a product presentation. LOL. Japanese CEO Takahito Iguchi made me giggled by his one-word responses to questions about his product "Tonchidot" for a mobile social tagging product.


He had answers like "Imagination!", "We have a patent", and "Never" when asked with lengthy questions. The audience could not help but laugh. It was a very enjoyable presentation -- one of a kind!

Travel with the 3M Pocket Projector

0 comments | Monday, September 15, 2008

It's the first of its kind. Later this month, 3M will launch the Pocket Projector (called, MPro110 mini projector). This is one cool travel gadget for researchers and those in the academe who do presentations often in different events.
The MPro110 is looks like a small grey box from the outside but it gets the job done. A VGA input lets you plug in a laptop while the composite video jack will take output from a digital camera, PSP, iPod, iPhone, or almost any other handheld device. Focusing is done by a thumbwheel on the front of the projector.

3M's projector shows full-color, standard definition video at a rate of at least 60 frames per second (television quality). Its 10 lumens of brightness make it powerful enough to overcome a brightly lit room to project an image about 15 inches across. In a dark room an image of 50 inches could easily be viewed.

The MPro110 uses LCoS display technology to display VGA (640 x 480) resolution. It also uses an LED lamp, which means no fan noise. The LED can display images bright enough to be seen in a brightly lit room.

3M MPro110 Pocket Projector Specifications/Features:
Resolution: 640 x 480
Aspect Ratio: 4:3
Inputs: 1 x VGA D-Sub 15pin and 1 x Composite Video
Outputs: 1 x VGA D-Sub 15pin
Mounting: Instant On and Off Tripod Threads
Weight: .3 lbs
Included in box: Adapter, Battery, VGA Cable, RCA Cable, RCA Adapter, User Manual, Warranty Card
MSRP Price: $359
