I was flipping through various news items on FlipBoard the other day and came across the image below.
It's a real mobile phone and was built by a space engineer who dislikes all the gadgetry on smartphones. It's an open-source design, so anyone cam make one from her plans, which can be found here.
Continuing the high-tech theme, we have taken delivery of the demo, pre-production model of the cordless vacuum cleaner we were early-stage investors in. We've been selected as a test site. Hardly surprising, really, as they've been developing the machine in our cabins in the field and we're on the doorstep.
The device is called the Lupe and Hay is very impressed with its power and efficiency. I want to borrow it for work, but I don't think I'm going to get the chance. I use a Dyson V8 at work, but after about 5 minutes it has to be recharged. The Lupe lasts 60 minutes on one charge and has the most powerful suction of any cordless on the market.
