New Gadget

Fancy yourself an aspiring rock star, but have no instrumental talent? That’s okay, thanks to this new gadget from Japan’s TakaraTomy.The Air Guitar Pro starts out looking like the end of a guitar neck, but that’s where the resemblance ends. The rest of the guitar is nowhere to be found.
You play the Air Guitar by holding your fingers on chord buttons on the fretboard, and then strumming in the air. It works its magic by using infrared sensor in the neck of the guitar to detect your hand motions. While the battery-operated Air Guitar does have a built in speaker, you can also connect it to an external amplifier when you want to crank up the volume.



Gigabyte has introduced its new gadget called the Gigabyte M704. It’s an UMPC with a 7 inch screen and an embedded GPS receiver. The screen on this one is an actual touch-screen though, meaning you can control everything from the screen. It’s small and it can be slide open for a QWERTY keyboard. There’s also a camera mounted on the front so you can do video conferencing.


If your definition of being active is more than hanging out in your living room playing Wii Sports, here’s a cool new gadget that could really come in handy.
Pyxis GPS Watch

Westech Korea is launching this new portable wrist-worn GPS device which is designed specifically for sports applications. The Pyxis RGPS-300 features unique modes for tracking all sorts of athletic endeavors including running, biking, hiking, mountain climbing, skiing and even driving. My personal favorite feature is the ability to load up maps of your favorite golf courses and check out how far away you are from the pin.
