A cellular watch that can make video calls? You won't find many of them because smartphones are so much better at doing that, but we've probably all longed for this seemingly futuristic concept when we were young (just as our own James Trew confessed...
Love this idea of making things compact and portable, especially with camping gear. So what we have here is the 2 In1 Walkie-Talkie Audio, it is basically an LED Flashlight, Bluetooth Speaker and SOS GPS Locator Device, rolled into one. It syncs with your mobile phone and can be used as independent products. The concept works as a walkie-talkie, where the Flashlight communicates with the base and can be used in emergency situations to locate with those gone astray.
Designers: Jesung Kim, Jeon Sung-su, Kim Ki-Pil and Ku Ja-Yun

Do you feel like having some delicious cookies today? Since I’m going with the assumption that everyone wants to do good inherently, then you might want to reach for your phone every time you want a cookie – just make sure you install the Girl Scout Cookie Finder app first.
As the name implies, it’s an app that helps you track down locations and dates that Girl Scouts will be selling cookies, by you can get your fill of the delicious treats. You’ll also find the app useful if you’re the gifting type, because you can just give away these boxes of cookie goodness to friends and family, and the happiness will be two-fold: the recipients will be happy to get some sweet treats, and the Girl Scouts will be ever-so-thankful for your support.
Since there are a couple of different companies that produce Girl Scout cookies, you’ll want to go with the official Girl Scout cookie app, which covers them all.
I’m always misplacing my keys. I don’t lose them because I can’t remember where I put them. Typically, I lose track of them because someone else in the house piles stuff on top of them or moves them. That means I end up throwing stuff around and yelling a lot when it’s time to leave the house.
If you suffer from a similar problem, Scosche has a new product called foundIT that will help you keep up with your keys and anything else you can clip the small transmitter onto. Those transmitters are approximately the size of a remote for a vehicle keyless entry system. The little Bluetooth low energy transmitters work in conjunction with an application available for iOS devices including the iPhone and various iPad models.
The wireless transmitters have a 100-foot range and get power from a coin cell battery good for a year of constant use. You can also set the app up to give you both audible and vibration alerts if your tagged device gets out of range. That means if you set your keys down and start to walk off, your phone will vibrate or beep.
The foundIT system is available right now for $49.95(USD) and for that price you get two of the little wireless transmitters. The Scosche foundIT application is a free download on the iTunes App Store, and will work with up to six transmitters.
