 Sanyo has just announced the release of Xacti, a comcorder that is perfect for fun in and out of the water.  It is rated waterproof at a depth of up to 1.6m, and features a 5 me4gapixel camera with additional 5x video zoom.  Recording life for the batteries is about 30 minutes, and you can record as much as 5 hours of video on a single disk, at 30 fps.

Another major plus it how fast it can be ready to shoot.  It boasts a bootable use time of 1.8 seconds, which will catch all but the most short-lived of picturesque events.  For snorkeling and other water fun, the Xacti is both extremely lightweight, and has a sleek and attractive design.

Puti Puti – Electronic bubble wrap toy

Author JoeDigital | 16.12.2007 | Category Consumer Electronics, Gadgets, Japanese Gadgets, Japanese Tech Toys

I finally broke down and bought a puti puti Electronic bubble wrap keychain by Ban Dai. At first I was not impressed as this toy seemed like it was overrated and hyped up, it didn’t even feel like real bubble wrap. After pressing the buttons about 50 times I found some neet and somewhat addicting features such as the random sounds of pigs, toilets and beeps that come out now and then. After about the 1000′th time pressing the little buttons I was hooked. http://www.asovision.com/putiputi/
