Imagine being in a situation where you desperately need a particular tool and even your trusty multi-tool or pocket knife fails to provide the gadget you need. Or perhaps you are the type of person that likes the idea of a pocket knife with different tools, but doesn’t care for carrying a really thick pocket knife around. If only there was a pocket knife that let’s you carry only the tools you want and even lets you interchange them for whatever situation you can anticipate. As luck would have it, now there is.
The Switch is a modular pocket knife that lets you customize the kind of tools you want to carry by allowing you to add or subtract gadgets thanks to the pocket knife’s interchangeable design. You can choose from up to 18 different attachments and the three interchangeable axles even let you change the amount of attachments you want to carry; from 2 tools up to 13 at a time.

2010 Intel Core vPro processor family
The platform based on the 2010 Intel Core vPro processor family includes the new Intel Q57 Express chipset, and new Intel 82577LM Gigabit Network Connection for notebooks and Intel 82578DM Network Connection for desktop PCs.
The processors are based on Intel’s award-winning Nehalem microarchitecture and manufactured on Intel’s groundbreaking new 32-nanometer process. Intel has integrated high-definition graphics in its processors for the first time, and incorporated Intel’s second-generation high-k metal gate transistors that help increase computing speed and battery life.
The 2010 Intel Core i7 processors and Core i5 processors feature Intel Turbo Boost Technology and Intel Hyper-Threading Technology for adaptive, smarter computing. Intel Turbo Boost Technology automatically adjusts the speed of the processor when it senses a workload change – faster when the user, for example, is multitasking or watching a video, and slower, more energy-efficiently when the worker goes for coffee and only background applications are running.
Jabra Cruiser wireless speakerphone
Noise Blackout technology involves a dual microphone system which is capable of removing virtually all street and traffic sounds while optimizing voice quality simultaneously to make sure you get your message across in a crystal clear manner. Of course, this does not guarantee that the person on the receiving end will follow through with whatever instructions you provide since that is out of Jabra’s hand, but at least it does do away with the excuse of the line “being not clear” during a conversation. The Cruiser is able to bring superior audio quality in a sleek design alongside in-car convenience that makes it possible to keep both hands on the wheel while discussing about a multi-million dollar deal.
Another interesting aspect of its proprietary Noise Blackout technology would be the ability to identify the direction of various sounds, where among them include traffic and backseat chatter. This technology helps to reduce only surrounding noise without distorting a user’s voice. With Multiuse connectivity, you can hook up the Jabra Cruiser to a couple of Bluetooth-enabled devices, and they are not limited to just cellphones but can also encompass smartphones and MP3 players among others. The inclusion of a built-in FM transmitter makes it possible to store both calls as well as MP3 files on a mobile device, where you can play it back on the Jabra Cruiser via a vehicle’s stereo system later on. Interested? The Jabra Cruiser comes with a price tag of $99.99.

The Solar Powered Dragonfly Kit
Lawn ornaments are still found in a great deal of yards, yet slowly they’re changing. It used to be you could watch them change as soon as there was a strong breeze. However, instead of these dragonflies flapping their wings with the wind, they are powered by the sun. Thankfully, they do still keep their power source eco-friendly, but in a slightly more hi-tech way.
These solar powered dragonflies come in a set of two. Their textured wings make an attempt to make realistic movements. You’ll have to do some assembling yourself, but you won’t have to use any glue. You just snap together or screw parts of the dragonfly together. It does require a hobby knife, a side cutter and other basic tools. You can purchase the kit for $34.05 through Amazon
