Non-Contact Thermometer

A company called Kidz-Med, Inc. has launched a new thermometer called, "Thermofocus", claiming it as the first thermometer to take accurate body temperature readings without touching the body.

It uses the infrared technology to measure body temperature by just pointing the thermometer towards forehead. As forehead is only body part which has considerable amount of blood supply and with no hair cover which enables this device to get the exact temp. It is claimed to take less than 1 sec to measure body temp.

Well this device looks good to me although i cant comment upon how much reliable its results would be but it looks an easy to use than the standard thermometer available.

iRiver DP250

iRiver has introduced its first digital audio player in its Siren brand, which was announced earlier this year. The player is called the DP250-a potential competitor to the Sony NWZ-B100 MP3 Player.


Some of the Features with a difference in this device are:-

• It will be available in a 1GB and 2GB storage capacity
  
• It includes an FM tuner and a transmitter to broadcast your audio to any FM receiver - a really handy feature.
  
• The voice recording functionality appears to makes it a highly competent player.
• The device is capable of 18 hours of continuous audio playback.
  
• Featuring a 400mW mono built-in speaker, you can enjoy listening to songs that deliver high quality music.

Some changes which i would love to have in this player are

• The device should be equipped with some what bigger display.
• Some work is required on the size specification to make in look different.
  
• There should be some modification in display panel, i believe companies must give away with this traditional looking panels. Think about having a display similar to what iPod or maybe iPhone are offering.
• Another feature which could have made a difference is Wi-Fi support with the capability of downloading music from music stores.
  

iRiver DP250 DAP will carry a price tag of $85 (approx. Rs. 3,400) for a 1GB version and $120 (approx. Rs. 4,800) for 2GB.
