The HubMob Assignment

I'm new to HubPages and just learned about the HubMob weekly assignment last night. This week's topic is hot new products. Since I'm not up on the latest gadgets I thought I would do a little research.

Who would know a lot about gadgets? Men. Men adore gadgets. I found a site called AskMen and they have a list of the Top 10: Hottest Gadgets for 2008. I decided to familiarize myself with this list and come up with catchy title for articles for each of their top 10 gadgets.

It is NOT my intent to tell you all the in's and out's of each gadget. You can check them out yourself.

Number 10 Sony Network Sharing Camera

"Shoot And Share"

It shoots five hours of web-ready video easily switches to a 5 megapixel  camera. It has built-in software that lets you easily upload it to your computer to share.

Number 9 San Disk Sansa Take TV Video Player

"Watch Me Here, Watch Me There"

This gadget allows you to download video from your computer and watch it on your TV.

Number 8 Pantech Duo

 "The Crazy QWERTY Do It All"

This gadget is a full service computer and multimedia phone.  There isn't much it doesn't do.


Number 7 Nike+ Ipod Sport Kit

 "I Always Knew My Feet Were Trying to Tell Me Something!"

A sensor placed in your shoes allows you to track your workout.  It records such things as your pace, your distance, time, pace and calories burned.

There's something about verbal feedback.....that part is a bit spooky.

Number 6 Slingbox SOLO

"Don't Miss Your Soaps While You Travel"

This gadget allows you to watch TV anywhere through your laptop computer or mobile telephone.

Number 5 Intel Penryn

 "Prepare for Warp Speed"

Just when they thought we couldn't process any faster, we can.  Smokin'!

Number 4 ZINK Digital Camera/Printer

 "Don't Blink at My ZINK"

This gadget allows you to take a digital photo, preview it and then print it in a matter of seconds.  It does this all with no ink, no toner, no ribbon cartridge.  A modern version of the Polaroid.

Number 3 Microsoft Sync

 "Finally A Car That Listens!"

This gadget allows your Ipod, cellphone, Blackberry, and Zune to be voice-controlled in Lincoln automobiles and some high-end Ford and Mercury models.

Number 2 Wii Fit and Wii Balance Board

 "Wii, Wii, Wii All the Way Home"

Exercise meets gaming.  This gadget allows you to sweat and pass it off as playing.

Number 1 Amazon Kindle

"Whatcha Reading NOW?"

This handy gadget includes 88,000 book titles, holding 200. It has a good battery life. It has exclusive subscriptions to top U.S. and international newspapers and magazines, 250 blogs, email and Wikipedia access.
