Temperatures in Japan tend to sore, and that’s pretty much the case in most parts of the world closer to the equator. It’s no wonder really, that the Japanese keep coming up with new and fascinating ways to keep yourself cool while on the go, away from the comfort of the air- conditioner back home. The latest on offer is these air-conditioner shoes that showed up at a Tokyo shoe store lately by Hydro-Tech. the shoes use new filter technology that releases the heat and humidity and allows air to flow in keeping feet refreshed and cooled. This is yet another attempt to have Japanese men switch to cooler clothing, instead of having offices run air- conditioning systems round the clock, in a bid to save up on energy. Via - [Gizmod...

Motorola Defy to get worthyupgrade

Back then in 2010, when the Motorola Defy rolled into our midst, we loved the way it handled all the rude handling with a body that was rugged enough to handle anything, the affordable price tag and the brilliant Google Android backend that made everything so beautiful. Now, Motorola have decided to give the phone a facelift to the Defy with an enhanced version that will upgrade the firmware and upgrade the process. So the 800MHz OMAP 3610 CPU will be replaced by a 1GHz OMAP 3620 one. The Froyo platform will be released by Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread. So it is safe to believe that the 5-megapixel camera, 3.7-inch screen, 512 MB RAM and 2GB internal memory will remain intact on the spec sheet. There’s no telling as to how much this version would cost. However, what we do know is that the report seems...

All this while it was the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport that has been gloating over its title of the world’s fastest production car in the world with a top speed of 268 mph. but looks like Shelby Supercars is going to rob away that pedestal from Bugatti with its Tuatara supercar that is reported to touch the roaring speed of 275mph. The name actually translates to a reptile in Maori language which means ‘peaks on the back.’ We find the name quite befitting owing to the fact the car has winglets on the back. The Tuatara lizard is known for its fastest evolving DNA in the world and hence the makers couldn’t think of a better name than this one. The body of the car is crafted out of carbon fiber and wrapped around a carbon chassis too. Its crash structures are made from aluminum whereas the wheels...
