Hasta La Gadget!

For a watch to look cool and modern, it doesn’t need to be complicated. Although this watch looks like one of those complex Japanese digital watches, it’s not. You just flip its the wall switch face and it lights up to tell you what time it is.

The Click Wall Switch Watch activates when you press on its face and switch on the LED display. It’s a very simple design that makes telling the time very straightforward. The nice, retro LED display reminds me of an old calculator but it can even tell the date thanks to the third position of the switch. There are some animations as well.

You can pretend that you switch time off and on, but you can buy the watch for $99.99(USD) from ThinkGeek or Watchismo in black, blue, red or silver.

There is always a need for disposable and secure email addresses. I had a bunch of junk Hotmail addresses years ago for handling spam and subscriptions I didn’t want going to my main email address. Thanks to Gmail, I’ve whittled it down to only one, but maybe I should just dispose of it and get the Gliph app. It’s basically, this app is like the Burner app we featured a couple of days ago, but for email addresses.

Gliph is a free app for iPhones, Android and mobile devices. You can use it to send cloaked messages to other Gliph users or use it to send and receive emails to anyone through your regular email client. An example would be Craigslist transactions, which are always somewhat spammy. Unlike other free services like Gmail and Hotmail, Gliph email addresses are easy to create and delete, and all your emails sent via your addresses come to a central location, so there’s no need to log on onto multiple accounts.

When you open the app, you get to pick a string of 3 to 5 icons that represents you, instead of using a username. You get one free randomly generated email address when you sign up for Gliph, and once you’ve invited at least 5 friends, you can send attachments too.

Bicycle lights generally use battery or solar-powered LEDs these days, not bike dynamos like in the 1980s. That doesn’t mean that these types of tiny power stations aren’t still useful. I’ve seen a couple of different ones allowing you to charge up your devices simply by pedaling a bit more. The BikeCharge will take this to a new level since it generates more current and is lighter than other models.

iBikeConsole’s BikeCharge Dynamo is a mounted DC power generator and it works with most smartphone brands. It’s supposed to charge up your phone in 2 to 3 hours, which isn’t bad – especially if you’re going for  It’s weatherproof, and the all-in-one design is 20% lighter than other systems of this nature. There’s a quick-release clutch that will allow you to disengage the dynamo when you aren’t in need of the extra power, though it’s designed to add minimal drag to your pedaling efforts when engaged. It’s also got a front LED light and two rear red LED lights, which can stay illuminated for up to 2 hours after you stop riding.

The BikeCharge Dynamo sells for $99.99(USD) but is currently out of stock.

Wireless headphones are getting more popular, but I’ve always believed that corded ones have better sound. These premium headphones from Denon are part of their high-end wireless headset collection, and look like they are an option if you want over-ear headphones that are wireless.

The Globe Cruiser Bluetooth 3.0 Headphones feature active noise cancellation, pentagonally-shaped memory foam ear pads, and 40mm drivers. There’s an included smartphone app allowing you to customize some settings, along with an interface to play your music. The headphones hold a charge of up to 10 hours, and can be plugged in for continuous usage. They have dual microphones and a wheel situated on the outside of an ear pad to select your tunes remotely. Frequency response is rated from 5 to 37,000 Hz.

The headphones pack flat, which is always good when you travel. While they look great, and the features sound impressive, they’re not exactly cheap. The Denon Globe Cruiser headphones will set you back $499.99 (USD) for a pair. They’re available for pre-order over on Amazon.

Bluetooth speakers are pretty convenient, since they allow you to share your tunes wirelessly and you can use many different kinds of devices, like smartphones and tablets, as audio sources. Scosche’s boomSTREAM wireless speaker is yet another option for streaming your music over Bluetooth.

The boomSTREAM speaker has dual 40mm drivers and a passive subwoofer to give your music a little extra low end. The speaker is the kind that goes anywhere, thanks to the 8 hours of continuous playback you get from the built-in rechargeable lithium polymer battery. Or you can give your smartphone an extra quick juice-up thanks to the USB charging port.

Scosche is selling this speaker for $99.99(USD). To put that price in perspective, that’s half the cost of the Jawbone JAMBOX. Only time will tell if the sound quality is as good as Jawbone’s offering.
