We’ve all seen the gear that you’re supposed to be able to talk to before, but what we don’t often see is a device where it works. Well the Moshi not only works, but works well. At the time of testing, it was in a noisy store on a Saturday night, and yet when the clock heard it’s name it lit up and said hello. Simply say “Hello Moshi” followed by one of the pre programed commands and the clock tells you the time, lets you set the time, lets you set the alarm, tells you room temp  and more. The best part is, this clock won’t cost you much more then a normal alarm, coming in at $49.95, this would even make a great gift if you’re on a budget. Very Cool. NC

Porsche Design (yeah those guys) has created, without any doubt, one of the coolest phones out there. The P’9521, made out of a solid block of aluminum billet. From its blacked out mineral glass, to its 3.2 mega-pixel camera, everything about this phones screams cool. Complete with a full touch screen display and fingerprint reader, this is also smart design. With a $1,600 price tag, this phone may be aimed at the elite, but it’s the geeks and tech addicts that are gonna go nuts for this one. Porsche has once again made something for the world to aspire too, and the rest of us to get a loan for. NC

Able to be dropped about 4ft, waterproof to 20ft for up to 2 hours and is able to work in subzero temperatures. This is  one tough camera. With a whooping 12.1MP sensor, 5x Optical zoom, 2.7 inch LCD screen, 720p HD video capture, Pixel Track Shake Reduction, and other fantastic features that put this firmly in favor with adventurers. ($330) Very Cool. NC

Puma is known to be at the height of sport shoe style, now it appears they’re going to make a move in the cell handset arena. Including all the standard smart phone features, Mobile Internet, GPS, Video Calling (Score!), 2.8 Touch Screen, 3.2mp Camera with LED Flash (Should be more, all high end Smart Phones are upgrading to at least 5mp), GPS, and more.

The best feature we know of at this point is that the phone can be Solar Charged. The bacl of the phone is a solar panel that you can use to charge your cell anywhere you have sunlight. The bad here of course is to charge you have to sit the cell facedown so the sun can hit the panel. This of course has us thinking mass scratching and screen damage, however the whole idea of a solar panel for charging on the phone itself is awesome. Until now we’ve had to pick up items like the Freeloader for anywhere on the go charging.

This “Active Smartphone” was designed by Puma and Sagem Wireless. No price has been announced yet, but the Puma Phone hits the market in 40 days. NC
