By MarioDecember 25th, 2009Household, NegativeNema komentara

ASUS-launces-ECleanerAsustek Computer known as Asus has launches robotic vacuum cleaner eCleaner. Asus is known as a computer peripherals manufacturer and netbooks manufacturer, not as manufacturer of a household gadgets. Let’s see what do we think about the Asus first step in the robotic vacuum business.

Gadgething’s cold hard facts:

      Gadgething opinion thumb down Design: it looks retro and like a toy, ugly red and yellow plastic
      Gadgething opinion thumb down Bumping in the objects; what if we have a precious furniture? No way I am going to let him do that in my house
      Gadgething opinion thumb up Auto charging at the base station
      Gadgething opinion thumb up Antibacterial ultra violet beam
      Gadgething opinion thumb up Price $155. For that price I’ll give it a go as a test run as a gift to my in-laws
      Gadgething opinion thumb down Too tall, it can’t go under a sofa

Gadgething opinion thumb down Conclusion: I would wait for a better designed and really “clever” vacuum cleaner, I’ve even taught my dog to take care of my furniture, why a $155 ‘clever’ robotic vacuum cleaner can’t do that?!

Create you basic private network with the included 2 wireless cameras (up to 50 are maximum you can add in tour system) and 4 peel & stick magnetic camera mounts in Vue’s starting kit. After that you just need to connect Vue gateway in the your router, and you are with the first step. All the videos will stream automatically directly to your personal my.VueZone.com account page. The price for the basic setup kit is $299.99 and each extra camera is $99.95, but you need to keep in mind that the first year for your hosting of you videos is free and after the first year the hosting would cost you $19.99 for one year. Also it is not clear how much space you’ll need for a regular video uploading since this current generation of Vue cameras does not activate recording or snapshots based on motion detection.vue-personal network-big-family

What you do with this thing is; you aim it to the celling of your bedroom and it projects light that you follow across with your eyes. By doing that you relax your mind and your eyes feel the need to close. It shuts down by itself, automatically, after 30 minutes. If you are still not in deep RAM sleep you can turn it on again very gently by tapping it on a side. This cute little gadget will cost you $210, but just think about how much money you can save by not spending it on sleeping pills. And for those who have kinds, this gadget will also come in very handy, you will no longer need to leave their side-bed light on and then return to shut it off when they finally fall asleep. We bet your wife will appreciate extra time you spend with her…
