Do you find it strange that we want the things that we do not have, and do not really appreciate the things that we have? Take hair for example, those of us with straight hair go out to perm our hair for some curls, while those with curls would want to rebond their hair to set it straight. How about facial hair? Some folk hate the “chore” of having to shave every few days, while the rest of us who are less hirsute need to find all sorts of ways to encourage facial hair growth, but at the end of it all, only one or two strands start to pop up. If you are one who spends plenty of time grooming yourself in the bathroom, you can add the $69.95 Waterproof Body Hair Trimmer to your arsenal of tools.

The Waterproof Body Hair Trimmer works as it is called – this happens to be a waterproof trimmer which can be used to groom body hair even while you are in the shower itself. Not only does that make it a whole lot more comfortable, it is also more convenient as the cordless device will glide over your skin, trimming body hair while it is wet in order to minimize the irritation of a dry shave, while ensuring that whatever water pressure you are receiving from the shower head would immediately washing away the trimmings. The Waterproof Body Hair Trimmer comes with a 3mm blade and will cut neatly any hair on the chest, back, and other parts of the body. It will also be accompanied by a nose and ear attachment, while adjustable blades and comb guides for trimming the beard and mustache are there to help you out, too. All of its juice is derived from a pair of AA batteries.

I am quite sure that by now, many of us would have set our sights on Apple unveiling a new iPhone, or perhaps even two if plenty of pre-release photos of a budget-oriented iPhone 5C were to be believed, in addition to the possibility of a new tablet. Well, regardless of what tablet Apple announces later today, if any, I am convinced that it will not be able to hold a candle to the size as well as resolution of the Panasonic Toughpad 4K UT-MB5 tablet. After all, this bad boy is touted to be the first 20” tablet in the world that sports 4K resolution, now how about that for some truly eye popping visuals?

The Panasonic Toughpad 4K UT-MB5 tablet was specially developed for sales, marketing and media professionals as part of their high end and new Ultra-High Definition Toughpad range. Make no mistake about it, this was never meant to be a commercial tablet for the masses, but rather, it will be a specialist performance model that is ideal for 3D modelling and CAD applications, and would come in handy when it is used in the hands of technical professionals such as engineers, architects and designers.

Your eyes will appreciate the 4K resolution which is said to be over four times better than HD at 3840 x 2560 pixels, and the name itself, the Toughpad 4K UT-MB5, also lends a rather obvious clue that this is going to be one business-minded yet rugged, portable tablet which will be able to break new ground in digital viewing with 4K resolution, collaborative working with touchscreen capabilities as well as feature a special Panasonic Electronic Touch Pen for pin-point accuracy and annotation. Other hardware specifications include a 15:10 aspect ratio and 230 pixels per inch, which makes it more than ideal to display large images, A3 drawings, brochures and multimedia. It will run on an Intel Core i5 processor, has up to 8GB RAM, and boasts of NVIDIA GeForce graphics, tipping the scales at 2.35kg and measuring 12.5mm thin.

Nissan might be the last name on your mind to have it announce that it is behind the latest smartwatch concept, considering how the company happens to be an auto manufacturer and not a consumer electronics player in a long shot. Well, this just goes to show how diversified some companies’ interests can be, and Nissan has just announced their conceptual Nissan Nismo smartwatch that will not hook up to your smartphone so that you have a “duplicate” of what kind of incoming notifications and calls you have, but rather, it would help connect the driver to the car, and vice versa.

For starters, the Nissan Nismo smartwatch’s main strength is to showcase Nissan’s intent to deliver biometric data that will help enhance driver performance and efficiency. Needless to say, their foray into this particular market segment would automatically make Nissan the first car manufacturer to develop a smartwatch that was specifically designed for drivers of Nissan Nismo cars. Provide drivers with real-time biometric data, it will also enable the driver to monitor the efficiency of their vehicle with average speed and fuel consumption readings; access vehicle telematics and performance data while on track; capture biometric data via a heart rate monitor; connect to the car using a smartphone app via Bluetooth Low Energy; and receive tailored car messages from Nissan.

Who knows what the future might bring? There are another three more key technologies that have been identified for future development, and they are ECG (Electrocardiogram) to help measure the intervals of the R-R rhythm of the heart and identify early fatigue; EEG (Electroencephalogram) Brainwave that is capable of monitoring the drivers’ levels of concentration and emotions while assisting athletes to get ‘In The Zone’; and Skin Temperature, where it will keep track of your core body temperature and hydration levels. Powered by a lithium battery, the Nissan Nismo Watch will be juiced up via microUSB and offers a battery life of more than a week under normal usage conditions.

Anyone who has had a puppy before, or are currently going through the training phases of a puppy would definitely be able to tell you how stressful it can get at times, especially when you want to potty train it. Take it from me though, as a proud owner of two (adorable) furkids, spending that single month alone to potty train them is well worth the effort and time, since such solid training would last them for their entire lifetime! Once they know where to do their business, never again would then poop or pee in their playpen or cage or elsewhere at home, unless they happen to fall ill or you have not let them out to do their business beyond what they can stand. How about a tool to make life easier? The $99.95 Pavlovian Puppy Potty Trainer would come in handy in this case.

The Pavlovian Puppy Potty Trainer happens to be a puppy pad which is capable of recognizing just when a pet has relieved itself properly, where it will then use positive reinforcement by dispensing a reward in order to encourage good habits, never mind that the owner him/herself is unable to be physically present to provide praise. This unique device boasts of internal sensors in the mat that will detect moisture and send a wireless signal to the treat dispenser, which you will obviously need to ensure remains stocked with a dog’s favorite kibble. Not only that, each purchase comes with a handheld remote that has a 25′ range so that you can conduct training exercises and establish good habits from a distance.

Just how much larger do you think that TVs in the living room will get eventually that having a projector around is redundant just for screen size alone? We are not quite sure where the glass ceiling is set in terms of measurements, but one thing is for sure – LG has just edged closer to a new record. In fact, their latest offering comes in the form of a 77” Ultra HD curved OLED TV that might just set the tone for the next-generation TV market. You might get a sense of deja vu out of reading this, but that is because the South Korean consumer electronics giant rolled out a 55” curved OLED TV earlier this year at CES, leaving this 77” monster to debut at IFA 2013 instead.

Havis Kwon, president and CEO of LG Home Entertainment Company, shared,“LG was proud to be the first company to commercially launch an OLED TV and we are once again setting our sights high with the ULTRA HD CURVED OLED TV. This 77-inch TV is proof that we will never stop pushing the boundaries and exploring new possibilities.”

Needless to say, this bad boy from LG would clearly make it the largest OLED TV in the world at the moment, not to mention being the new flagship from LG at the moment, boasting some of the most advanced next-generation TV features in a single chassis. It measures a whopping 77” diagonally, where the large screen’s IMAX-like curvature would ensure that you, the viewer, has a field of vision which is filled more completely compared to a conventional flat-screen TV.

Not only that, it will also merge with LG’s exceptional WRGB OLED and ULTRA HD technology, which would let it deliver infinite contrast ratio and resolution that amounts up to four times greater compared to regular Full HD. No idea on pricing, but chances are pretty high you have got to pay for this through your nose – and more!
