The Pipsqueak saves you from Mary Poppins moments
The rise of the designer bag has led to many Mary Poppins moments when searching for your mobile. Once you’ve manoeuvred your way around your keys, wallet, makeup, sticks of gum.. the phone has often stopped ringing and you’ve missed an important call. Devices do exist that alert you when your phone starts vibrating- but this is the first we’ve seen that answers your call with a ‘Janet will be with you shortly message’ to keep the caller online.
Pipsqueak is a pocket sized device that uses Bluetooth to sync to your phone. It features a clip to allow you to clip it to your bag or waistband and vibrates and emits both light and sound when you have a call- with the number ringing displayed on its surface. You can opt out of the sound option if you’re somewhere very quiet.
You can use it to hang up on a call, or to alert your caller that you are about to answer. This feature is called ‘extended time’ and tells the caller to ‘Please Hold’. You can customize this message with your own voice- or use celebrities via the website (not yet launched).
The Pipsqueak also alerts you if you’ve left your phone behind, with a 30 foot radius. When you’ve stepped out of range your Pipsqueak will vibrate and display a ‘Phone Lost’ message. I think this is a very clever idea, and know it would help me out a lot.
The device is created by SeekerPND and the launch date and price is still TBA.

The American Red Cross TurboDyne Series keeps you safe and stylish on the road
‘Be safe not sorry’ is a common motto, and this can apply to all areas of your life. The American Red Cross has joined forces with Eton Corporation to create a three piece set of eco friendly roadside assistance products, with a stylish twist.
The TurboDyne series features three products aimed at making breakdowns easier to deal with. First up is the Road Torq, a wind up flashlight that includes a retractable tripod so it can be used as a beacon. It works off a rechargeable lithium ion battery and 1 minute of cranking gives 15minutes of juice.
Next we have the Axis, a wind up radio, which can also operate on AAA batteries and mains power. You get an AM and FM digital tuner as well as access to the NOAA weatherband, which includes weather alerts. There’s a 3.5mm jack if you want o listen in with headphone and a USB connector which allows you to charge compatible devices- including some mobile phones. Should you be totally out of power, the Axis has four white LED lights and a flashing red LED light which will allow you to alert people you’re in trouble.
The third device in the TurboDyne series is the Rover, a portable emergency radio. It’s very similar to the Axis, but is larger and looks sturdier. It features the same specs, apart from the fact that it also features connectors with rubber plugs to seal out moisture. It will no doubt be more expensive as well.
I like the attention to detail they’ve taken with these products as they are attractive as well as functional, and the streamlined design means you’ll be more likely to keep it in your trunk. They will also be available in black.
The products will be out on 2011 from the Eton Corporation. Prices TBA.

The Withings Smart Baby Monitor lets you use your iPhone to check on your baby
Baby monitors used to be fairly basic devices. They’d transmit noises from a transmitter to the receiver and you’d be able to tell whether your precious was cooing or crying. Welcome to the next evolution of the baby monitor, where your receiver can be any web connected device, including your iPod, iPad, eBook or computer. The Withings Smart Baby Monitor features a 3MP camera which transmits to any connected device, allowing parents to remotely check in on their progeny. They can access both video and audio data, as well as use the inbuilt microphone in the monitor to soothe their child remotely.
The Smart Baby Monitor is more than just a camera though, as the device includes a whole bunch of extra features. Infrared LEDs give you access to night vision, and you can also check the temperature and humidity of the room to make sure that your baby is comfortable. You can also select music to play through the monitor (lullabies etc), and stream playlists to the Smart Monitor from anywhere in the world.
You can even go one step further, and set up personalized alarms that alert you when there is unusual behaviour relating to their movements or temperature, based on certain parameters. The monitor is cubed shape, and you simply open it to use the functionality and snap it shut to turn it off.
The Withings Smart Baby Monitor will be available in March 2011.
