Toshiba launches new range of 29-inch LED...

Much to the joy of the bibliophiles the Google Play Books is finally available in India.

iPad 2 is a novel device in itself, and who wouldnt love to own it? But Stuart Hughes, known for converting popular Apple devices into shimmering and zazzy products, Gadgets has given this iPad 2 a luxurious plus historic significance. It isnt simply the usual luxury iPad studded with diamonds and other precious stones. It has its front main frame crafted out of ammolite, i.e the oldest rock world over (sourced from Canada). The ammolite carries sections of a 65 million year old T-REX dinosaurs thigh bone. The rear side is built of 2 kg of gold, which embeds the Apple logo with 53 sparkling diamonds. We dont think it functions any different from the normal iPad, but should be quite heavy considering the gold used on its rear side. Definitely, not a great portability option. Wait, but who would risk taking this iPad outdoors, considering its outrageous price tag that reads Rs. 41.3cr (5 million), it exclusive only for the super-rich kids. And if you are thinking who would really buy it, then let us tell you that there are takers for the limited edition iPad 2 Gold History already.

While these tech-imbued devices made it to our list of gadgets for March 2013, lets see what catches our attention next month.

Hasselblads H4D camera range appears to be a photographers dream. One of its high resolution camera is the H4D-200MS featuring a 50MP sensor and 200MP Multi-Shot Technology. This camera is handy when you need to capture extremely large or extremely close shots with the highest detail possible. It builds on the technology and success of the H4D-50MS and uses Hasselblads proprietary multi-shot capture technology, applying a clever technical solution to bring 200 megapixel resolution. In ct, it is three cameras in one, adding functionalities from the previous models such as the H4D-50 and the H4D-50MS. Some of its features include 36.7 x 49.1 mm CCD Sensor, True focus, Ultra focus, digital lens correction and 3-inch display. With a range of top of the line features, this camera is going to set you back roughly about $35,000, which amounts to around 19 lakhs.

This watch is an ingenious piece of architecture and technology withlimited 111 pieces, each priced at $250,000, which amounts to approximately Rs 1.35cr. It has three overlapping cylinders on three levels to deconstruct time. Adjacent to the hours domain are two pavilions one showing the minutes on a jumping disk as well as units in the running disk, while the other displays the regular beat of a big titanium balance-wheel. The mechanism on which the watch works almost turns it into a puzzle that is solved at every hour. The numeral of the hour, assembled in the centre of the circle, turns into a chaos before instantly reassembling as the new hour. It stays still until the next disintegration. In the watch mechanism, 24 placards revolve and rotate on a complicated system of gears mounted on an epicycloidal gear-train. Sounds complex and fun, doesnt it?

If you are a crazy music fiend or love hosting parties which are all about loud snappy music, then you may just love to own this device. Its one of the most desirable gadgets for those who can groove to music anytime, anywhere.

Youll get a pair of seven feet tall and over 3 feet wide speakers for that price. Yes, which means you also have to own a huge mansion to place them.

The iPhone seems to carry cachet for many users and Apples devices are often seen as the highest-end consumer products in the gadget world, said Coye Cheshire, associate professor of sociology at the Berkeley School of Information.

Some may make an even bigger statement by using other smartphone operating systems. The Hunch survey seemed to relegate BlackBerry and the Windows Phone to a footnote, with BlackBerry users labeled as introverted city folk (equally likely to be male or female) who like to travel; it summed up Windows Phone users as politically moderate, suburban soccer moms.

WASHINGTON: People not only judge each other on what they drive, what they wear and where they live, they are now judging each other on what electronics they whip out to use in public.

Android users, on the other hand, seem to skew more rural (86 per cent more likely than iPhone users to live in a rural area), are more likely to vote conservatively (20 per cent more than iPhone users) and are 10 per cent more likely to be male.

The Apple owners are also more likely to be ages 18 to 34, compared to the PC users 35-to-49 demographic. More than half of Hunchs 388,315 respondents owned PCs, representing a much bigger chunk than the Mac users 25 percent.

Android users may be a statement against the iPhone. Most people have reference groups, or people they hang out with or aspire to be, said Brent McFerran, a marketing professor at the University of Michigans Ross School of Business.

These users are also more likely to be liberal and make more than 200,000 dollars a year. Theyre extroverted,new york asian escorts Gadgets enjoy spending money and define themselves as high-maintenance. The iPhone became a status symbol because people equated smartphone with iPhone, said Roslyn Layton, a Ph.D. candidate in Internet economics at the University of Copenhagen.

Tablets have all kinds of users. However, most are considered leisure users, according to Frank N. Magid Associates. Unlike the first wave of tablet owners, people in the second wave tend to use the device occasionally, are less tech savvy, and more likely to be female and older than 50. Some experts say that judgments based on the technology people use says something about wealth and privilege.

Those with Apple products made up 32 per cent of 15,818 users surveyed in 2011; they seemed to skew older than 35, and were more likely to be female and have a graduate degree than people using other products.

The Mac is another Apple product with a conGadgets are New Status Symbolstroversial identity. According to an April 2011 survey by Hunch, PC users tend to be suburban and rural, while Mac users are r more likely to be overeducated, vegetarian urbanites. PC users are more like to stop by the meme site I Can Haz Cheezburger, while Mac users want a peek at the Huffington Post.

But Hunch also reported that Mac users consider themselves early adopters, while PC users are later adopters.

People either want to be like that group or disassociate themselves from another group by doing the opposite, he said.

There also seems to be a well-formed iPhone or iOS hipster identity, at least according to Hunch, a taste-predictor engine that uses internet behavior research to predict what different people will like.

Ikea makes fun of its flat-pack reputation with the GRSSAX, a foldable flat-pack lawn mower that showed up on Ikea UKs Facebook page. Light, foldable and easy to store, perfect for saving space in small gardens! reads the description.

At least two major airlines got in on the pranking action. Virgin Atlantic featured a blog post from Richard Branson that introduces the worlds first glass-bottomed plane. That idea should go over well with people who have a fear of flying. Delta came up with an idea that is both funny and practical: double-decker armrests to give passengers plenty of elbow room.

Toshiba goes way, way over the top with the Shibasphere, a motion-detection gaming system for the whole mily. While the specs are good (12-core 3.5GHz processors), the imaginary games that go with it are even better. A mily travel game requires you to remove your shoes for a TSA search while Pet the Dog gives you an imaginary pooch to scritch, much to the chagrin of your real dog.
