Empty out your pockets and you are likely to have a Bluetooth headset, a pair of sunglasses along with a wallet and a phone. Now what if three of those four items could be combined together into a single gadget?
Tri-Specs packs dual microphones, speakers and Bluetooth connectivity into a pair of sunglasses with a set of retractable earbuds. To switch between calls and the MP3 player, users have to press the button on the rim of the glasses.
Extending the in-ear speakers turns on the power for the device. It can also do the usual voice dialing and prompts associated with Bluetooth headset. Oakley has had similar Bluetooth and MP3 player sunglasses for a while.
Tri-specs' glasses are yet to be available in retail but are expected to be priced around $200.

The Clicking Kitchen Grip brings the computer into the kitchen but not in the usual way. Sure the kitchen of the future may have touchscreen appliances and self-cooking gizmos but the fact is that pots are still going to be hot and they’re going to need to be moved off the oven or stove. Until we have robots to handle this, you’re going to need oven mitts. Now we’ve all used the cursor hand thing around the web (I believe the technical term is the “grabby hand”) and now you can further geek up your home with the Clicking Kitchen Grip. Well not right now since they’re out of stock, but maybe sometime in the near future.

I’m pretty partial to tortoise frames where glasses are concerned, but environmental issues lie closer to my heart, which is why going for fake tortoise frames would be the better option. Unfortunately, those won’t let you read in the dark, and if you want to look stylish without coming across as dorky, the Tortoise Lighted Reading Glasses 2.5x ought to do the trick.
Attractive, frameless reading glasses have a bright LED light mounted in each corner, allowing you to see clearly in low-light situations: in bed, on planes or trains, in dimly lit restaurants, etc. Also great for sewing and crafts. Available in 3 magnifications, plus 0, if you just need the light. Batteries included. Color: Tortoise.
They retail for $29.99 a pop, although couples who decide to purchase two or more will get a $2 discount off each pair. They’re currently out of stock at WhateverWorks though, and will be available only from the 26th January onwards.
Here’s another gadget to make sure that all your other gadgetry manages to stay charged, even when you’re away from home. It will support over 1,200 devices and you can purchase plenty of tips for anything from your cellphone and iPod, to handheld game consoles. It has more than one way to get a charge, making it ideal for emergency situations or just when you don’t have your charger on you. It can be cranked to charge it up or you can go with the simpler route of plugging it into the wall.
Any hand crank device always takes a little while, if you crank it for two minutes, that will give you six minutes of talk time on your phone. If you charge the battery up completely by plugging it in, it’ll give you four hours of talk time on your phone or five hours on your iPod. If you’re in an emergency type situation, I’m sure you’ll appreciate the built-in flashlight as well. It also has a twin cable, which will allow you to charge two more devices overnight. The cable is optional though, so likely you’d have to pay extra to pick it up. Luckily, the battery itself isn’t too expensive. You can pick it up for $29.33 on Compact Impact.
