New tech gadgets

Filed under: Uncategorized — exb902 @ 4:03 am

Here is something to think about of what has come out on the tech market.

MooBella sounds like some large woman who likes ice cream. This is indeed a first to have ice cream dispensed. Utter than other ways. I thought of another joke about this, but you can think of your own!

Bones in Motion sounds like a cool gadget. No this has nothing to do with insertion like everyone may think. It is a mobile tracker when you do activities. Why don’t they not only use this for runners,etc. How about keeping those drivers who talk and drive and next. Opps, sorry, I was too busy talking on the phone when I killed the other person in the car!! Sounds like phonesnotinmotion would make a good name. I wonder how much the stats have gone up with accidents and cell phone use? This was what Live Science had to say. Cell phone distraction causes 2,600 deaths and 330,000 injuries in the United States every year. How about when you can’t get the cell phone replaced due to water damage, where is the warranty. Where is the warranty on this hazard on the road??

Robot Marriages?

I found this article to be a very interesting and funny. I don’t know how I find these articles like the other amusing one that I wrote about.

Next Page of same article

“Sex and marriage with robots? It could happen
Robots soon will become more human-like in appearance, researcher says”
If the robot does the dishes and cleans the house and doesn’t argue that might be a good thing. Ha, how about no mother in laws to call and try to manipulate them. Then imagine all the females buying the tickle me Elmo robot! I wonder if that would look different than the original one.
I don’t know how robot sex would go? It might be good for a polygamist where you might have a human wife and a robot one. Heck they might even have gender parts to change like on second life for on the robot where you can give it to the wife to use if you ran out of viagra one day.
I know this might be amusing but people do strange and different things out of the norm. Maybe they can have little robots so the pedphiles can do them instead of the real children? How about going to the robot brothel house of ill repute? How would life for people change if robots came about?

A hot robot?

I think this guy has more time on his hands than he knows. Along with something else. I’ll save my 20 dollars and not buy the book. Even if it ever made it to the best seller list one day. Even though being single I would rather have a real female to act like a robot. I can see a robot to clean house, but to marry one? This guy made me laugh out loud when I read this article.

OK a more serious article that was written on other blogs.

Amazon has just started up an e-reader. On their new “Kindle Store”they have more than
90,000 titles. They have 101 of 112 New York Times best sellers. This reader is as thin as a pencil sideways. The features are a 6-inch display based on the technology from E Ink. There is a 600×800-pixel resolution with a four-level gray scale. Most books or articles can be purchased for $9.99 or other prices.

So the question people ask is if this will be a seller?
Kindle article

This is tough to say as of this moment when they will sell this at $399. Most of all they don’t have to be connected to a PC to download a book.
