Solar Vest – Practical Fashion Statement?

Miscellaneous / By William Appleyard / August 18, 2009

Someone here has clearly lost their mind when designing this gizmo – a solar powered vest that charges your gadgets; simply attach your gadgets to the wires in your pockets and you’re good to go! Whilst this does look shockingly unstylish, it is very practical so you might be interested in getting a bit of use about it, just maybe not in any local areas in case you get seen. Of course, to some people this might actually be that outrageous fashion statement they were looking for – tech chic perhaps? I’ll leave you to make your own mind up about whether you value your reputation or a full battery more.

The Ripple Bluetooth Headset

Phones / By William Appleyard / April 30, 2009

Bluetooth headsets have never really been the epitome of style. Presenting The Ripple – coming from the designer Ilya Fridman, this headset is a small, circular disk with ‘ripples’ emitting from the center which is also a small button used to control the device.

Without knowing what it actually was, most people would just assume it’s a very modern and very large earring, but part of the circle flips outwards to reveal the microphone and when a conversation is over, you can press the center button to keep the headset active for listening to music.
