<p>sWaP is an analog cell phone watch that actually looks like something you could wear without feeling like a complete moron. Here you will get a watch with phone capabilities, not a cell phone with a strap attached to it.</p>
<p><span id="more-2791"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>
It not only tells the time, but the wearer can pop in their SIM card to transform the watch into a wrist communicator a la Dick Tracy. And there&#8217;s more. Built into the strap is a <strong>1.3 megapixel camera</strong>, so you can sneakily snap all of those top secret government documents you keep finding left on the pub table &#8211; or you could just take pics of your mates.</p>
<p>The memory card slot allows you to insert a <strong>T-Flash card</strong> to upgrade the already impressive 128MB memory to a whopping 2GB. With all that memory you&#8217;ll have no problem storing all your MP3s and you can even watch MP4 movies on the <strong>1.5 TFT colour touch screen</strong>. You can access WAP sites, bringing the world wide web to your wrist and the watch is Bluetooth enabled, so if you&#8217;re sick of getting tangled up in your hands free kit you can banish the wires forever.

<p>If you don&#8217;t want to use two <a href="http://www.geekalerts.com/spider-man-cell-phone-holder-for-cars/">Spider-Man cell phone holders</a> next to each other, here&#8217;s a clever 2-in-1 solution that will hold your cell phone, GPS, PDA and other handheld devices in place on the windshield of your car.</p>
<p><span id="more-2117"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>
A strong suction mount allows the holder to be easily installed on the inside of a windscreen and it can be set in the preferred position by adjusting the flexible goosenecks. This means that these two modern day essentials are kept accessible and available, but still secure and safe whilst on the move.
</p></blockquote>
<p><img src="http://www.geekalerts.com/u/dual-car-holder2.jpg" alt="Dual Gooseneck Phone Holder for Cars" title="Dual Gooseneck Phone Holder for Cars" width="245" height="221" /></p>
<blockquote><p>
The cradles that are supplied with some sat-navs mean that they cannot easily be reached when installed in some vehicles, but the flexible goosenecks on this holder means that phones or sat-navs can be positioned within easy reach.
</p></blockquote>
<p>The Dual Gooseneck Holder will soon be available from the <a href="http://www.expansys.com/">eXpansys UK</a> website. <a href="http://www.santok.com/">Santok</a> has set the suggested retail price to £19.99 (about $37 USD).</p>

<p>The <em>Pro Phone Center</em> has four tone settings and amplifies incoming sounds up to 50 decibels. On top of that it will separate noise from voice to give you the best possible listening experience.</p>
<p><span id="more-1535"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>
There&#8217;s multi-band compression and adjustable volume, along with digital 5.8GHz transmission to provide less interference. There are four tone settings to customize your listening experience. You&#8217;ll appreciate the full duplex speakerphone in the handset and base &#8211; and the handset is contoured, to be comfortable and easy to hold. The concave earpiece creates an acoustic chamber to provide crystal-clear sound. This is an excellent, feature-rich solution for those with hearing loss.</p>
<p>The digital answering machine comes with adjustable-speed playback and remote access. There&#8217;s also call waiting, of course, and caller ID with 40-name and number memory. And the unit is hearing aid compatible. There are also features especially helpful for those with vision problems, like the bright visual ringer flashes that signal incoming calls. The high-contrast white LED screen is bright and easy to see, and generously spaced backlit buttons make dialing easier.
