The T-Qualizer is a t-shirt with a built in, working, sound sensative graphic equalizer built in. It’s similar to the clock t-shirt we reviewed earlier. The battery is stored in a compartment and the display will dance along to the surrounding noise.

The E-TEN M600+ is being launched and is similar looking to the older model (pictured below). Just a slight rebrand. The E-TEN M600+ runs on Windows Mobile 5.0 for Pocket PC. It has a Samsung S3C2440 processor inside which runs at 400Mhz. It has 256Mb Flash ROM installed and also has the option of using an SD card to increase storage. Wi-fi and Bluetooth are built in. The device uses a wireless manager to switch these on and off which is easy enough and can be achieved with about 3 clicks of the pen on the screen. No problems with that! There is no infra red, but who uses that anyway? Since the arrival of Bluetooth and Wi-fi I dont think I have ever switched on my infra red ports on anything.
The device supports Microsoft Direct Push which is compatible with MS Exchange servers. Very handy for business use!
This image below is what the Mixrosoft Argo could look like. It’s apparantly from a MS insider and is port of Project Argo. It seems to have a display that has a wide screen aspect ratio and runs about 3 – 3.5″ diagonal.

Another beauty concept idea has been given to the world by those at YankoDesign. This amazing looking device it a unique trangle MP3 player and then opens up to be a video player. You flip it upside down, pull the 2 halves apart and the OLED screen uncoils which then a hinge locks it in to place. Working as a video player you can then remove the MP3 control and use it as a remote control.
