Digital Hour Glass Watch
Sand+Time Watch is a project that unites modern technologies and old ways of measuring time. Sand+Time offers its wearer the time in modern electronic hours, but the form of the interface has also been borrowed from an old sand hourglass. The watch functions in two modes. The first, the screensaver, takes the form of a sand hourglass counting a certain time unit set by the user to their preference. (The default setting for the hourglass is to count one minute.) The second mode displays the time in numbers the most common electronic interface for the modern person.Labels: coolest gadgets, digital hour glass watch, gadgets

Carl Zeiss's 1700mm Telephoto Lens
Lens manufacturer Carl Zeiss has made one of the world's largest telephoto lenses. I know you are still thinking of it as a "lens", then you're in for some shock. This lens is so big in fact, that you nearly need 10-15 titanium tripods to support it. Weighing about 256 kg (yeah that's KG), this baby has a focal length of 1700mm (over 5.5 feet!), a speed of f/4, and has 21x magnification. It will be displayed in this year's Photokina convention in Cologne, Germany starting September 29.

Tomato U7 Player
Not sure why any company would go and name their portable media player "Tomato U7 but one thing's for sure, the U7 may be small, but it has a host of features included. Weighing 25 grams, and its size being 38 64x14mm, it's smaller than a common cellphone and it yet manages to fit a 1.8 inch CSTN screen that displays 65k colors.
However, it looks like it might only be released in Korea and we have no idea how much it costs.

Parrot's Bluetooth Boombox
The company Parrot seems to have a love for things with Bluetooth, and their latest product is a clear indication. The Parrot Boombox (that's what they named it) will play music off your Bluetooth-equipped cellphone or MP3 player (wirelessly) and gives an output of 60W. With the usual Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR mojo (including AD2P and AVRCP), this baby ensures as little loss in quality as possible.
Parrot's also seen fit to include an RCA input for those that haven't gone completely wireless. While the "boombox" targets mobile device users, it measures approximately 17 x 7 x 8.8 inches and weighs 12 pounds. Set to be released sometime in the second quarter of this year, this piece should be just under $13000 when it comes out.
