For those of you who tend to do a whole lot of typing in your line of work, surely you would know that there is nothing quite like a responsive keyboard with fantastic tactile feedback. Having said that, those projected keyboards are novelty devices that are unable to beat the real deal when it comes to churning out those reports as requested by the upper management. Single folks can just give this particular story the once over, or skip it altogether as they do not have to deal with typing in bed or in the bedroom while your partner is doing his or her darndest best to fall asleep. What you need is definitely something that works great as a keyboard, but is whisper quiet. The candidate to fill this pair of shoes would be the new Das Keyboard Quiet Mechanical Keyboard.

With the introduction of the Das Keyboard Quiet Mechanical Keyboard, it would mean that Das Keyboard’s popular range of high-performance mechanical keyboards has just gained another family member, where it is said to be able to reduce audible feedback to a minimum without sacrificing on performance. In fact, it claims to deliver one of the best tactile experiences. This latest newest member of the Das Keyboard family will boast of Cherry MX Red key switches that are combined with a new Quiet Key Design. In a nutshell, it would require far less force to actuate keys, where we are looking at 45g instead of 55g to 60g for majority of the keyboards out there, and users would then end up with a softer, more tactile and “whisper quiet” typing experience.

Daniel Guermeur, creator of the Das Keyboard and CEO of Metadot Corporation, said, “Professionals who use modern communication tools like Skype, GoToMeeting, Google Hangout and other means to interact during the workday need a quiet keyboard during their calls to help reduce background noise and distractions. People working in open space environments have expressed the same need. The growing demand for a keyboard that could deliver such an experience is what motivated us to design our newest product. The Das Keyboard Professional Quiet is the total package, delivering outstanding tactile feel and a whisper quiet typing experience. ”

You will be able to pick up the $149 Das Keyboard Professional Quiet in the following layouts – US, UK, German and Nordic.

As I type this, I am sitting in an Airbus A320, cattle class, typing on a Dell XPS 12 and realizing that my arms have hell to pay when I touch down in an hour’s time simply because there is just not enough space to type properly, but work still needs to get done. To make matters more uncomfortable as they already are at the moment, there are a couple of ladies in the opposite row who have not stopped yakking – and yakking loudly, too, for the past hour. Who would have thought that they have so much to talk about, in addition to letting the rest of the world know of their family issues and problems? This is where the Shure SE846 sound isolating earphone would certainly come to my aid.

The Shure SE846 sound isolating earphone sports a patent pending design that boasts of a low pass filter in order to deliver a true subwoofer experience, even when you are on the go. Thanks to the inclusion of a Quad High-Definition MicroDriver with a three-way system configuration that has been dedicated low, mid, and high frequency distribution, your ears will be able to experience deep low-end performance without having to sacrifice on other important aspects such as clarity or detail.

The Shure SE846 sound isolating earphone has been specially developed for professionals and audiophiles, where it will extend the legendary heritage and performance of Shure’s widely-adopted SE215, SE315, SE425, and SE535 Sound Isolating Earphone models. The SE846 is said to offer strong, impactful bass, allowing the midrange and high frequencies to shine individually. Not only that, the natural roll-off of the subwoofer also allows the tweeter and midrange drivers to have the amount of acoustic space necessary so that they can be heard clearly and accurately.

Each purchase of the $1,250 (yes, it is expensive) Shure SE846 sound isolating earphone will come with a two-year limited warranty, where shipping is set to commence later this June.

When it comes to mobile operating systems, this particular market is starting to get a little bit more crowded than usual. First of all, let us list down the two major players where smartphones are concerned, and obviously iOS as well as Google’s Android would pop into your mind, and after that we have Microsoft’s Windows Phone platform that is closely followed by BlackBerrry 10 OS, and the featurephone market will see Symbian taking the chunk of the market share. Does this mean that there is no longer any more room for innovation for the more ambitious around? The correct answer would be a resounding, “No!”, as Jolla from Finland recently announced their maiden attempt at a smartphone which is powered by their very own Sailfish mobile operating system.

Some folks might have thought that the device was named “The Movement” as though it were to be a representation of a rapper or a wrestler, but that is besides the point. As with any new hardware release or announcement, you can be sure that ordinary folks would flock to word of it, hoping to get more information on the important details such as the hardware located underneath the hood. We do know that the Jolla smartphone will come with a 4.5” display, powered by a dual-core processor, carries 16GB of internal memory, has 4G LTE connectivity for you to enjoy a blazing fast Internet connection no matter where you are (subject to signal availability, of course), and an 8-megapixel shooter for posterity.

Not only that, there is another feature known as the “Other Half”, where users are able to switch out the handset’s backplate. Jolla explained it this way, “Attach the Other Half and your Jolla becomes alive and unique. Magically, the software changes to match your selected colour and design. Your Ambience. Your Jolla.” Basically, Jolla’s Salifish operating system is actually a reworked version of Nokia’s now defunct Meego OS, and Salifish OS will play nice with Android apps, now how about that? We should be able to see the Jolla handset hit Europe by the end of 2013, where it will carry a €399 price tag – so you might as well place your pre-order at the moment if you are interested.

Are all vacuum cleaners created equal? Apparently not, as you can tell by the $349.95 Gtech AirRam High-power Cordless Vacuum Cleaner.

Times are still hard for many, and we all try to manage according to the best of our ability at any given moment. Well, the Gtech AirRam High-power Cordless Vacuum Cleaner works as its name implies, delivering all the suction power required sans the pesky cord.

Each full charge is said to allow the Gtech AirRam High-power Cordless Vacuum Cleaner to run for up to an hour before it finally runs out of juice, and considering its slim 3” profile, it is a snap to tote around, not to mention stash away once you are done with the day’s chores, in addition to making it easier to maneuver around and under furniture since there are no bags or clunky canisters for you to worry about. Your back will thank you too, since it tips the scales at a mere 7.7lbs, and crams all dirt into compact “bales” that are a snap to dispose of.

Since Father’s Day is around the corner (all right, so it is sometime in June, but it never hurts to be prepared in advance) and you are sick and tired of thinking of the perfect gift as dad already has numerous ties, shoes, vests, cufflinks, belts, and leather wallets. Is there nothing out of the ordinary that you can give dad to bring a smile to his face? A luxury watch might be a good idea, but it is not unique. Enter the $2,700 Self Balancing Electric Unicycle, where you might have visions of grandeur of Tony Stark’s briefcase suit, as this is a briefcase-sized electric unicycle which allows one to be perfectly balanced at all times thanks to the help of gyroscopic sensors.

The Self Balancing Electric Unicycle is suited for both urban commuting as well as suburban recreation, where all you need to do is just to stand on its two folding feet pads. The integrated gyroscopic sensors will be able to detect a rider’s subtle feet movements, all the while taking into consideration a shoulder-slung backpack or bag for its center-of-mass calculations. All you need to do is grip the handlebar and lean forward, resulting in a steady acceleration without jolting, and if you want to slow down or stop, just lean backward.

Turning is a snap, where you control it with side-to-side balance and turn around with subtle leaning. The unicycle will be powered by a 500-watt electric motor that can propel a 160-lb. rider up to 13 mph for two hours, and it will take a three-hour charge to juice up its integrated lithium ion rechargeable battery. It certainly seems like a dream ride to have, and I do wonder about the requirements to ride this in public. Urban commuters would definitely find this to be a boon, especially when your destination is just a few blocks down the road.

Are all USB hubs created equal? The correct answer would be, “No”, and a resounding one at that, too. After all, hardcore Dr Who fans might even start to fantasize that the £22.95 Dr Who Tardis USB 4 Port Hub which they see here is able to send them into a time warp, but even if to their great disappointment that it does not, at least you have a quartet of USB ports available for you to plug in a plethora of other devices into your PC or Mac, as and when required.

If you do not want to start off the work week on a dull note, then the Dr Who Tardis USB 4 Port Hub is your cup of tea (or coffee), as each time you plug it in, the lantern at the top will flash, alongside the classic time travelling sound effects. Needless to say, just in case the rest of your colleagues get jealous of the latest toy at the office, you can always turn off the special sound effect to annoy them less. Definitely more than capable of brightening up any work space for sure.
