Stuart Hughes has made a name for himself by designing and producing gem-studded gadgets that are grabbed by the consumers for their wow appeal. But Stuart has serious competition now. Nam Jung Gwan is a new name for the people but he proved that he is not a beginner when it comes to playing with Swarovski crystals. His creation simply took the breath away of the people who were fortunate to witness the product.
The occasion was the 2010 Mac User Conference held by Nonprofit Mac Community Union at the Trading convention centre in Seoul. Nam is a member of the union and he had entered his Swarovski encrusted Mac-Book for the Mac Accessories Contest. The number of crystals and the way they were put together was both amazing. It is a sparkling creation to say the least.

Connoisseurs of luxury would admit that there couldn’t be any gadget that is luxurious unless it came from one of the luxury houses. Thus, most of us find ourselves buying the Prada Phone or Dior Phone in order to buy the most luxurious, and not purchase something technically advanced but designed for the masses. Thus, on that note here is the Versace Phone which has just been announced, and may put Vertu on notice, as the blogger on Engadget says.
This beautiful phone comes with touchscreen communicators and the sapphire crystal screen is apparently the largest for any consumer device. The phone also comes with gold plating and high-tech ceramic construction options. The phone would be hand assembled and you could also get the Medusa-embossed leather back.

Social networking sites are the best time pass for many internet users. Many are hooked to Twitter and Facebook constantly either through their computers or mobile phones. With mobile phones providing internet facilities and the social networking sites themselves allowing their users to log on to their sites through mobile phones, it only makes the users get perpetually connected to the social networking sites.
Now, there are even cooler ways of getting connected to the so-called sites. After the hoodies that help you update your Facebook status, and the shoes that help you tweet, you can now from the Tweet Sleeve. It is a project done by Vanessa Sorenson. The tweet sleeve is wearable. This one is a tad different as it not only allows you to tweet but also displays your mood. For instance, when you send out angry tweets, the LEDs on your sleeve radiate a red, and when your mood is lifted, the colors change to green, which suggests that you are happy.

You must have realized the kind of attention that Apple products are given, and most of it is over hyped. Of course, the iPod and the iPhone were pretty cool but the iPad is quite a disappointment. Moreover, I have spoken about how certain people and jewellers think that by adding diamonds or a coat of gold, a certain gadget could become luxurious, quite erroneously.
Now, Mervis Diamond Importers are going to unveil the gaudy Mervis Diamond iPad which would come with 11.43 carats of diamonds. With a grade of G/H in colour and VS2/SI1 in clarity, these diamonds are of course some of the best that you could ask for. The gadget even comes at a crazy price of $19,999.00.

Usually we assume pollution exists out there on the streets, and that inside out houses it is clean and pure. Unfortunately it is not so and we have to understand that the air is equally impure inside out houses as well. Air fresheners may help in reducing the odour but they do not purify the air. Thus, here is a gadget that not only tells you how polluted the air is, but it also purifies your air to an extent.
It is shaped like a tree stump and looks pretty cool. Park Jun Seok and Kwon Hye Rim have created the Green Ring, which keeps your ait clean and pure. When the air is bad, the stump turns red and when it is green that means the light is good. It is made of recycled materials and is thus a great way to make sure that everything is alright.
