Seiko Bluetooth watch connects to your phone

Seiko Bluetooth watch connects to your phone

Seiko Japan has developed a prototype watch which connects to the Mobile phone via Bluetooth. The watch displays Network signal strength, Battery life and new Message. Upon loading a special software from Seiko Instruments on your phone the watch can display the Message subject and the Sender’s name. When you receive a call or SMS the watch can play a melody and even vibrate. In case the phone goes outside the Bluetooth range the watch sounds an audible alert. You can also silent the incoming ring of the phone using the watch.

Nokia Xpress-on™ GPS Shell

Nokia Xpress-on� GPS Shell

The Nokia Xpress-on™ GPS shell is compatible with the Nokia 5140 phone and opens up your world to convenient wireless positioning. It integrates a GPS module with the Nokia 5140 phone and offers stand-alone GPS and map-based Travel Guide Service applications, helping you find places, get location information, and use route guidance.

Features:

When you want a map and guidance to interesting places - parks, hotels, and restaurants, for example - open the Travel Guide Service and download the information via your phone’s network connection. Or, for coordinates of your location, link up to GPS - which uses a network of satellites to get information on your location. Both applications help you find places, get location information, and use route directions easily - plus you can save the locations of your own favorite places.

The Nokia Xpress-on™ GPS shell uses your phone’s battery, and it offers improved protection against splashes and dust.

GPS

The GPS functions in the Xpress-on™ GPS shell are supported by a network of satellites to provide location information and route guidance - no GSM network coverage is necessary.

Trip Computer

Ever wonder how much ground you’ve covered, and how quickly? The trip computer keeps track of current and accumulated trip data, like course, speed, elevation, distance, and time. You can customize the view to see the combination of fields you choose.

Waypoints

Don’t forget where you found that scenic vista, stunning waterfall, or incredible bakery - save interesting places as waypoints. Waypoint coordinates are stored in the phone’s memory and can be accessed by both GPS and Travel Guide applications. And when you want to share a special spot or have a friend join you, you can send waypoints as SMS messages to a compatible Nokia phone.
Route Guidance

Find your way to a particular waypoint with the GPS application route guidance function. Route guidance uses a rotating compass (on your phone’s screen) with four directional descriptions - North, East, South, and West - and an arrow that shows the bearing to the next waypoint.

Tracking and Return Track

With Tracking and Return Track, you won’t need to leave a trail of bread crumbs to find your way out of the forest. Tracking helps you keep a record of your journey by recording points that you pass through. When it’s time to go home, Return Track uses those recorded points to guide you back to your original position.

Travel Guide

The Travel Guide application works over the GSM network to access maps, route guidance and point of interest data.

Waypoints

Don’t forget where you came to that scenic vista, stunning waterfall, or incredible bakery - save interesting places as waypoints. Waypoint coordinates are stored in the phone’s memory and can be accessed by both GPS and Travel Guide applications. And when you want to share a special spot or have a friend join you, you can send waypoints as SMS messages.
Route Guidance

Find your way to a particular waypoint, address, or point of interest with route guidance in the Travel Guide Service application. Route guidance takes your location and shows you possible routes to your destination, provides you with an itinerary, and updates your location on a map.

Points of Interest

Want to find a restaurant nearby, or maybe a nice overlook? Points of interest can be looked up in the Travel Guide application, giving you a head’s up into a particular area. Points of interest are organized in categories like restaurants, hotels, and golf courses - so you can easily find a point that interests you. Points of interest can be looked up alphabetically, by category, or by proximity to your location.

Maps

Maps viewed with Travel Guide are accessed online, over-the-air, so that you get the latest available map. Zoom in for street name details, or zoom out to get a broader view of the region. A one-year subscription to a regional map package is included with the Nokia Xpress-on™ GPS shell.

The CCU-550, a CDMA EV-DO Modem USB key

The CCU-550, a CDMA EV-DO Modem USB key

Now here’s a bright idea! A plain USB key that is in fact a CDMA 1x EV-DO modem that offers a theoretical surf speed of 2.4Mbps! Just for those who are not up-to-speed on what CDMA is: this is the American alternative to GSM, and CDMA 1x is the alternative for W-CDMA or UMTS or 3G. And in that CDMA 1x you have EV-DO (Evolution Data Only), which can be compared to GPRS but then at 2.4Mbps. A very cool USB key, and available only in Korea (of course). Too bad we don’t have this in Japan or the US.
