Even before a gadget is reveled, the hungry hounds of the online world disclose almost all ins and outs of it, and when it is actually released, it is no more a new entrant. Latest to show up itself before our screening eyes is the Lenovo ThinkPad X100e. It’s far from public release, but we already know this is the first AMD based ThinkPad netbook, featuring Athlon MV-40 processor and RS780 chipset along with a portable 11.6 inch.

That size may put the X100e in a segment between a netbook and a notebook, but pretty sufficing for a $500 tag with which it would be made available sometime in January. Featuring WWAN, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, and Bluetooth for connectivity the 3lbs ThinkPad X100e will have a long life battery that we learn would be good to keep the user glued for 5.1 hours.

We don’t get a chance to lay our hands on wooden gadgets or accessories every day. If you are looking for an artistic accessory for your wooden PC or Laptop, then Russian gadget maker AlestRukov has popped up a series of artistic mice to compliment your one-in-the-million gadget.

Made in sustainable wood, each mouse is handcrafted and polished with linseed oil and carnuba wax, giving them a glossy look. Featuring latest technology, including microswitches and 1600 dpi optical resolution, the mice comes integrated with a stiff yet bendable cable for an interrupted net browsing.

Sometimes products with no real application can also be interestingly appealing. Such case in point is this self rolling miniball. A weird robotic contraption this has solar panel attached to help a small battery within to be charged by the power of the sun. Belonging to Solarbotics’ BEAM robot family of ‘rollers’, this Jérôme Demers’ project rolls over like a ball when the battery within it attains a sufficient amount of the power kick the motor running. If you have worked out some practical use for the miniball, then follow the instructable and try making your own. Just remember to fit in some solution to get it to a halt because at times you’d want to stop it before the battery gives up. Video of the miniball in action after the jump.

Having established themselves as human peers and assistances already, robots are now trying to get us adults into some shape, helping us with our exercise routine. Thanks to the students from USC’s Viterbi School of Engineering, who’ve developed the Socially Assistive Robot that we could have as our physical instructor motivating and guiding us through the routines with its articulated arms. The Robot is under experimentation, where he will demonstrate moves with its arms that volunteers’ are expected to follow, besides coaching these volunteers by showing the same moves on a video screen. Lie down and be as lethargic as you can, because once the robot’s reached your home, he wouldn’t let you have the merry time anymore. Video demonstration after the jump.

Envisioning a future where the brain would be implanted with some vague sensors, which will track the brain waves, and allow them to function as the present day remote control to operate our computers and electronics, seems so sci-fi now.

We’ve heard the claims time and again, we have also seen a few prototypes that have proven that controlling electronics and such, with the power of thought alone is pretty much possible in real life…plucked from sci-fi but not a mere redo – so we consider the claim feasible without doubt.

If you’re looking for a big mean machine that’ll make computing a pleasurable experience, then head no further than the Dell Studio 17 Touch. Almost a desktop-size laptop, this flaunts a 17.3-inch 1,600 x 900 display let loose with multitouch capability. For sheer processing power the 7.08lbs notebook stocks Core i7 processors (also available in lesser variants i.e. 2.1GHz Pentium dual-core T4300 and up), while the storage is managed by up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM and 1TB of 7,200rpm HDD.

The system runs Windows 7 as the OS, quite obvious, while recently previewed Google Chrome OS is still making attitude adjustments with manufacturers to get it up in the hardware by next year. Using GMA 4500MHD graphics, Wi-Fi, several USB ports, a USB/eSATA combo, HDMI and DisplayPort, along with VGA and FireWire, the Dell Studio 17 Touch starts for $899 with a 6-cell battery.

Imation Pro WX drive makes its debut as the world’s first Wireless USB external hard drive. Offering a 3.5-formfactor with a mammoth 1.5TB of onboard storage capacity, the drive with one-touch backup sync buttons and both Mac and PC compatibility could be a real boaster for users carving for wireless workspace. But, is that good for a $500 tag? Considering the fact that external drives are already available with integrated Wi-Fi, which like the Pro WX drives let you share and backup data over a network wirelessly. The Pro WX does function as an ordinary USB drive, but with transfer speeds being as low as only 15MB per seconds, comparatively that’s only sham noting impressive.

An alternative to keep our handheld electronics good on power for long, really long, may be on its way in form of radioactive batteries being developed by the researchers at the University of Missouri. The researchers having put small amounts of radioactive elements into constructive use, believe the batteries developed from these radioactive substances could not only power electronics for months or even years, but will also be more reliable and cheaper alternative.

The penny-sized battery will be stuffed with milligrams of sulfur 35 which would slowly decay and break into radioactive electrons. The sulfur would be surrounded with a liquid semiconductor known as selenium, which would help convert these splitting radioactive electrons into electricity. Small amount of ingredient means limited radiation which means limited power, but researchers say this can be increased with higher density materials.

A pickup truck is a pickup truck plying legally until it has a jet engine embedded to it tale. So, if a Ford F650 has a General Electric J85 Jet Engine strapped onto its bed, which makes the monstrous truck a beast with 7000hp of power, capable of speeding up to 200 mph – would you still leave it to legal on the streets? The irony perhaps, the Frictionator is actually street legal, please keep yourself safe. Video of the jet powered truck after the break.

Different types of prototypes and actual healthcare devices have been made; both to track and medicate us. These systems are so high tech in form that they give us a glimpse of the future. Now, for the first time, Ergonomidesign, a company that has 40 years of experience in Life Science industry has come forward to demonstrate to us the future of integrated health care. Because their experience gives them the liberty to envision the future, I believe their designed integrated healthcare service ecosystem will lead to a greater awareness and health control.

Ergonomidesign has devised an application Helping Hands - a ‘Natural User Interface developed on a Microsoft Surface table’ to show that people in the near future will use healthcare services to connect with each other apart from the fact that these services will be used for disease prevention and control. A video demonstration is available after the jump.
