Open It! opens any annoying plastic packaging (Inspector gadget toys)
Open It! opens any annoying plastic packaging
Man, do I hate how things are packaged these days. Lets say I just got home from Wal-Mart or something after picking up a new wireless mouse. Usually, I leave the common sense at the door and try to open the anti-theft packaging with my hands rather than do something logical like, oh, I don’t know, grab a scissor. Hell, even a fork would do.
If I went out of my way to buy a gadget made to open annoying plastic packaging, you can bet your behind I wouldn’t let that money go to waste. The slick Open It! claims to be the perfect gadget for the job. No body likes being a victim of “wrap rage”. Open It! provides the tools needed to get the job done, and get to the real fun of playing with your new toy.
Open It! features angular jawed scissors, a flip-out screwdriver, and a retractable knife blade, just so you can get through the damn plastic and enjoy your purchase. These are the matters we need to take into our own hands. Take that anti-theft industry!
The Open It! comes in your choice of Fire Orange, Berry Red, and Mocha colors and is available through the Zibra official site. There’s some confusion about the price since apparently the initial press release placed it at $10, while the site says $12. Let’s just, I dunno, call it $11?

Kodak, a household name when it comes to photography, has just announced a brand new wireless digital photo frame line that will come in both 8″ and 10″ versions, capable of hooking up to photo-sharing sites such as KODAK Gallery and Flickr without the hassle of wires or the need for a computer to act as the middleman. Among the Kodak Easyshare wireless digital frame partners include Flickr, FrameChannel and Kodak Gallery as mentioned earlier. I find FrameChannel to be rather interesting as it provides users with access to the latest news, weather, traffic, sports scores and more with a single touch. In addition, FrameChannel doubles up as a portal enabling access to images from popular photo-sharing and social networking web sites.
The two new models are the KODAK EASYSHARE W820 and W1020 Wireless Digital Frames, functioning as a window to the virtual world. You will be able to stay in close contact with family and friends thanks to its wireless connectivity which boasts seamless access to digital memories stored on a computer or online. With the intuitive Quick Touch Border, essential information is available at your fingertips. Some of the features found on both models include :-
- Display pictures in brilliant color and crisp detail. Kodak’s Digital Frames display images in HD format (16:9 aspect ratio). The screens are color- tuned to Kodak’s standards and use proprietary KODAK Color Science for vibrant colors and pleasing skin tones
- Wirelessly stream all of your pictures and video from your home PC to your frame with built-in Wi-Fi capability
- Control the frame easily with the Quick Touch Border, allowing for simple operation with a touch or slide of the finger, while leaving the screen fingerprint- and smudge-free
- Store up to 4,000 of your favorite pictures directly on your frame’s 512 MB of internal memory, and even more pictures when using the two convenient memory card slots
- Customize the frame to match a home’s decor. Two decorative mattes are included in Cranberry Red and Silver colors. In addition, optional KODAK Digital Frame Faceplates are available in Mahogany with a gold matte, Silver with a blue matte, Black Shadowbox with a champagne matte and Espresso Shadowbox with a black matte. Easy to change, the faceplates snap onto the frame and update the look to suit your own personal style
- Play your digital camera videos and listen to your favorite MP3 songs through built-in speakers, bringing a special dimension to any picture slideshow
Both these models will be available for purchase from next month onwards.

Ever wonder how your pet sees the world? I can imagine that it is pretty low of the ground, and food is always so high up.
Now, you don’t have to imagine anymore with the Pets Eye View digital camera! The Pets Eye View clips to a pet’s collar like an ID tag, and is completely water resistant.
The camera can be programmed to snap a photo every one, five, or fifteen minutes, and store them in its internal memory. These pictures can be downloaded onto your computer with the included USB cable. This cable can be used to charge the lithium ion battery inside the camera.
I am all for putting a camera on cat or a dog. It definitely gives a new meaning to the word watchdog. Hee hee hee. Seriously now, I’m not certain how I feel about the ad campaign used to sell the Pets Eye View.
The Pets Eye View camera advertises that it is a “scientific fact” that “pets can’t be trusted”. Not only that, but “they look like little angels, but they’re just buttering you up so you’ll feed them”.
Man, I know that my dog sleeps on the couch when I’m not looking, but every pet misbehaves. Don’t make them into the villain. Personally, I want to use the Pets Eye View just to see my dog’s POV, not to indict him!
The Pets Eye View will be available in October 2008 for about $44.99. You can purchase it at the Entertainment Earth site.
