ZBTV: How cool is the Zeemote JS1 Controller?

by ZackBrandit 9. March 2009 22:42

The next gadget I am here to tell you about is the Zeemote JS1 Controller!!!

I really love videogames, but the size of game controllers is often an issue considering my small hands. However, I am always on the move and do not wish to drag along both a mobile phone and a portable gaming console. This is where the Zeemote controller becomes handy.

The Zeemote is a Bluetooth joystick for Smartphones and cellphones. The controller is very comfortable to hold and works very well. It can be used to play games, but also to browse on your phone menu.  Additionally, it plays your favourite videos and songs!  It does a little bit of everything, it seems!

 

It really has intriguing functions. Just purchase one of these along with a pico-projector and your flight, train and metro trips will not be the same. Get one of Oberthur’s Motion detecting Simsense SIM card and immerse your games into real life!!!

Be creative, be original and tell us how you’d use it!

The controller is not yet compatible with all brands available, but the team is working very hard towards a solution, hopefully for the end of this year.  Regardless, it is still great as is.

Watch the video and please leave your opinion. Remember, I’m here not only to provide you information, but potentially intriguing opportunities!!!

This video ends my footage from Barcelona. It was a great experience and based on all the feedback I have received thus far, I will come back with more great videos and content but most importantly, SURPRISES you are not expecting yet!

Until then, fellow treasure hunters, enjoy your searches as well!

ZBTV: Gigabyte Gsmart S1200 phone

by ZackBrandit 9. March 2009 22:13

This phone may be my “coup de Coeur” for this year’s Mobile World Congress and the name is kind of funny because it reminds me of the show “Get Smart” and perhaps I should get smart and buy the phone already!!

The Gsmart S1200 is very fashionable and slim. It has a nice touchscreen and very reasonable specs, though you will not find any internal hard drive. Anyway, when we see the memory size of the latest micro SD-cards, it doesn’t really matter anymore. But most important of all, it has a GORGEOUS Adobe flash interface!!!

I just love it!  You all know how I REALLY am intrigued by the latest, greatest technology!  Especially when it is easy to use!

You know, I am a little lemur; but even for me it is smooth, has the perfect size and is very user friendly.  Have a look at this video and do not forget to leave your comment here!

Remember, YOUR opinion tells us if we are telling YOU what YOU want to know!  We would love to have your thoughts and opinions going forward.  Thank you!

ZBTV: Nuvifone from Garmin Asus

by ZackBrandit 5. March 2009 00:40

Partnerships in consumer electronics development may have been uncommon at one point, but are not so uncommon anymore. Many technologies have shown us both sides of the coin:  the big success stories and those that fade away. Most well known collaboration is probably the joint venture between Sony and Ericsson. 

I was fortunate enough to discover the Nuvifone.  This product is one resulting from an alliance between Garmin, the GPS producer, and Asus. Today the Smartphone integrates GPS receivers and Garmin comes along with a GPS which adds the ease and convenience of features from a mobile phone. Sounds fun, doesn’t it!

This long awaited crafty piece of technology has a great, simple to use menu and is equipped with two GPS receivers, which I found to be very intriguing. Not only can you use it in your car, but it is also designed to be used by pedestrians. How great is that??  I love to walk and even if walking, I can use this nifty gadget to find my way!  I’m just curious, does it recognize well known trees? I often enjoy climbing trees to have a better view.  Anyway…

It is a nice phone and I rather like it.

The second model the Nuvifone M20 was also presented at the conference, but I was only able to get footage of the G60.  So much to see and too little time!

For more information, you can take a closer look at what Engadget says about the G60 and M20 by clicking on those links.  I really think you will like what you see!  Remember, without YOU, I can’t possibly know what you want to hear more about!  So please leave your feedback and thoughts on this blog!

I hope you enjoy this interesting interview! Please let me know what you think about this phone/GPS. If you attended the conference in Barcelona or actually touched these interesting products, please share your thoughts about them!

Have fun, keep smiling and I will keep it coming, treasure seekers!

ZBTV: News from Docomo Land

by ZackBrandit 3. March 2009 09:44

Hello treasure seekers!
I’m back with some great footage!

One of the trendiest words today is pico-projector.  Just in case you haven’t heard of it, a pico-projector is a projector soooooo small that it fits in your pocket and can be used to watch movies, Powerpoint presentations and more, wherever you want. I know I have a list with ideas ready for testing!

Some companies want however to take it a step further and embed it in mainstream products such as mobile phones. Here at ZackBrandit TV, you can have a look at a pico-projector from Docomo’s mobile phone projector and in HD!  And you have to see it to believe it!  VERY COOL!!

Though as a tiny lemur, I must admit that I find it a bit bulky.  I mean, let’s face facts:  It’s almost as big as I am!  But, for you??  This prototype shows us what to expect in the coming months and this is incredible!  Soon we’ll see ZackBrandit TV everywhere!

For some additional information, consider taking a closer look at what Engadget says, as well.

Neat video, don’t you think?  But that’s not all!

Docomo came along with some amazing ideas and cool services too complex to show in such a short period of time, so I couldn’t tell you about all of them in just one video.  What are some of them?  Well, one is a viral voucher system using mobile phones. Docomo launched a couple of years ago their Mobile Wallet (Osaifu-Keitai) and with the Electronic Coupons system called Toruca it is now possible to use coupons, flyers and vouchers by waving the phone over a scanner in a store. These can also be transferred to another phone in much the same way.  Vouchers and coupons?  Phone to phone?  Who would have thought it could be?  DOCOMO! 

Another prototype Docomo is working on is a dual mobile phone.  What is this?  Where the screen and keyboard work separately.   How do I mean?  Have a look and tell us what you think about it!

Remember, YOU are the key to Zack Brandit!  YOUR ideas = better products and services for YOU!  So, watch and comment, please!!!

Welcome to ZackBrandit TV & The 1st Show about the ZIVIO

by ZackBrandit 2. March 2009 16:26
Hello my friends!
This is a new milestone for the ZackBrandit community and I am so eager to share this with you!

Indeed, this is the very first time I am featured on the internet with ZackBrandit TV!
I may appear to be merely a bystander, but I am really taking a look around for the best products and services I can find!

So what is ZackBrandit TV?  A show about me treasure hunting for YOU!  Fun!!

I absolutely have plans to travel around the world to discover great new products and services that may interest you and make your daily life simpler. Who knows, I might even help you get your hands on one of these things you see on ZackBrandit TV!

The first six movies you will see (if you subscribe to the blog, so subscribe now!) were shot in Barcelona, where I attended GSMA’s Mobile World Congress. I asked my colleague, Laurent, to be behind the camera. I thought his French accent would be funny.  I think it is quite possible that one day you will hear my Lemurish accent!

So, please welcome my first appearance, the first video and product we’re going to show on ZackBrandit TV!  *listens for applause* Oh, thank you, thank you!  I will take a bow! 

 

The Zivio Boom has finally arrived to Europe!
This stylish Bluetooth headset from
Joby
uses a malleable and retractable metal stalk as microphone.
I really like it and take a look at me wearing it!  Stylish and comfortable!  What a great look!
You can find some additional information at
Engadget.

Please have a look at the video and let me know what you think of it.  I need YOU and your feedback to know how I can bring YOU more value and more of what YOU want!
Would YOU like me to get you one of these?!
