<p>Kerchoonz has today unveiled the K-box &#8211; a portable device, similar in size to an iPhone, that will turn tables, walls and other flats surfaces into giant speakers.</p>
<p> <span id="more-3345"></span></p>
<p>Plug the small box into any laptop, portable gaming device, netbook, mp3 player mobile phone or even TV, equipped with a headphone jack.  Place it on a desktop, table top or wall and using its unique internal patented gel audio technology, it will convert the entire surface underneath it into a giant audio speaker, with a fantastic bass sound.</p>
<p>The rubber-based device has an average output performance of 95dB at 1m, with the bass performance changing, dependent on differing surface levels but averaging at around 40-20 Khz) &#8211; pretty impressive, considering the unit only has 2W RMS.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.kerchoonz.com/#/kbox">K-box</a> is available from Kerchoonz.com with a retail price of £39.99 (about $64 USD).</p>

<p>This patented Cesar Millan in a jar device is said to be able to &#8220;quickly and humanely restore peace and quiet to a home vexed by a dog&#8217;s excessive barking&#8221;.</p>
<p><span id="more-3311"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>
No special collar is required; when a dog barks within 25&#8242; of the unit, it emits a harmless ultrasonic tone, inaudible to humans, that startles the animal into silence. The dog quickly associates its bark with the unpleasant sound, which conditions him to curb this undesirable behavior.</p>
<p>The unit can also be activated manually to help you correct a dog&#8217;s other bad habits, such as lying on furniture or foraging through the trash.
</p></blockquote>
<p>The <a href="http://www.hammacher.com/publish/76825.asp">Indoor Barking Dog Deterrent</a> measures 3(H) x 5(W) x 2 1/2(D) inches and requires one 9-volt battery. The product is available from the Hammacher Schlemmer website for $49.95.</p>

<p>Let&#8217;s stay on the <a href="http://www.geekalerts.com/tiny-usb-card-reader/">tiny gadgets topic</a> with the brand new Grandmax Pull-n-Play Tweakers &#8211; a pair of portable mini speakers that show &#8220;sound can come in small packages&#8221;.</p>
<p><span id="more-3126"></span></p>
<p>The design and the way they work is quite similar to the <a href="http://www.geekalerts.com/usb-spring-speaker/">USB Spring Speaker</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>
Give it a twist and the top portion expands, giving you extra air space which brings out the bass. You&#8217;d have to hear it to believe it. For speakers this size, it sure packs a punch.
</p></blockquote>
<p><img src="http://www.geekalerts.com/u/tweakers2.jpg" alt="Grandmax USB Mini Speakers" title="Grandmax USB Mini Speakers" width="538" height="497" /></p>
<blockquote><p>
With built in lithium batteries, you can have hours and hours of listening.  And with the built-in retractable audio and charge cables, there are no extra cables to bring around and no cable mess.  When you need to charge your tweakers, just pull the charge cable out, and connect it to a mini USB, or use the included USB charge adapter to connect to a USB port. The speakers come in dual speaker configuration with stereo sound. They come in crimson red and black.

<p>The <a href="http://grandmax.com/store/tweakers-c-6.html">Grandmax Pull-n-Play Tweakers</a> mini speakers are available for $44.95.</p>
