Aptera Typ1: Get 300mpg from a $30.000 Hybrid

California is now in the green race of America and is here to give Detroit a piece of their medicine. Aptera, a Carlsbad, CA-based company is out with a car (not practically a car as it has three wheels); I should say a transport vehicle that gives a whooping 3-0-0-Miles-Per-Gallon. We sure think it is just a concept car or a vehicle and we see things like these all the time. NO. This has been driven and practically tested; it is a hybrid (I will compromise on that), but even then it is six times times more than a Prius. Read more

EuriCase: Hi-Tech Way to Propose

It has been more than a month since I got engaged and I could still remember how I felt. Obviously surprised and happy but it was more of dazed. My dream proposal did not happen but I was equally happy. I got a diamond ring on my finger now and am set to marry early next year. Sometimes I wish my fiancee could have exerted more effort like in a techie way since I’m a gadget girl. I once thought it would be nice if he proposes through my website. Log in and create and entry so the next time I check it out, I’d read “the question” or whatever. He could have made a short film or music for me. But there’s no point of ranting, the proposal has happened much to my amusement and yes, giddiness. But he can still do it right? Propose and give me a more expensive ring and put it in very nice and hi-tech ring box like the Euricase Read more

$1,180 Gold iPod Touch: Not just another blinged gadget …

Blinged products are in. Well, not exactly…but there is a market for anything pink, gold, and studded. Every week, a new item is added to the list of blinged up gadgets in the world. Now comes the Gold iPod Touch from the Golden Store. Not that it’s a more surprising news. The gadget girls and the rest of the world are just waiting for a gold version to be released.

No Apple iPod Touch features were added to this model, only it was plated in 24 karat Gold. Obviously, the price for the 8 GB and 16 GB models are far from Steve Job’s suggested retail price. The 8GB is available for 600 Euro, that’s a little less than $900 while the higher model costs 800 Euro($1,180).

Are there people really buying golden gadgets? I have yet to see someone carrying one and attracting thieves.
