KeyPort

www.key-port.com

This is one of the best inventions right now. I hate when my keys scratch up my cell phone, or when it scrambles when you walk down the street. And to be honest how sweet looking isn’t this piece of metal!? The sleek design and functionality are the big plus but the price tag? 295 dollars… Ohh no! im not gonna pay that.

The Eye-Fi.It’s an SD memory card that adds Wi-Fi to any camera. Plus the free Eye-Fi service support free upload to 20 different web photo sites (like flickr).

Well if you think there is a downside like in battery time.. You are wrong, its completely done to match SD standards. So being able to share your photos in real time as you snap them with an Apple-like simplicity is truly amazing.

The Eye-fi is available now and the price tag of 100$ for a 2 gig card is awsome.

+21th Century

Aptera

If you guys tell me it’s 2007 now, I would barely believe you but when I see this wicked attempt to a futuristic 3 wheeled car I get super exited. The superb part about this car is that its going to be serial manufactured. The fully electrical car has a price tag of 26,900$ will run 120 miles on a charge.

The gasoline/electrical ECO Hybrid is 29,900$ and will run 300 miles on the gallon witch brings us to a new ECO era. If we all had cars that run 300 miles on the gallon global warming would not be a problem. Superfamous love ECO sustainable energy sources, Hybrid engines and electrical solar power.

Audi A1 - Hybrid Gen.

Audi A1

Audi are now tired of Mini coopers advantage in the small copué genre. Thats why the are releasing the new Audi A1 with hybrid power. The car also known as Audi Metroproject Quattro has recently been spotted online, and its not set to be revealed until the motor show in Tokyo.

Under the hood we find a 1,4 liter TFSI - engine with 150 break horse powers. Also found in the VW Tiguan. The interesting part though is the Electrical engine with its own battery stack with a bound weight of 70 kilos. This makes the car a full hybrid, electrical engine brings out 41 break horse powers. Its a plug and play charge, normal 110/230 volt and a SmartBRAIN application in the cars own brain, that transfers heat in breaks and turns it into electricity.

Maximum speed of 201 KM/H, 0-100km/h under 8 seconds, headlights are LED based and the suspension is magnetic-ride-type, which means the magnetic fluids in the tubes can be effected to make different road abilities.

UPDATE: VIDEO

Retro Sneakers Voltron/Reebok

Voltron

80’s retro, old school, manufacture design heaven, I wish I was one of the creators of an 80’s legend. This is one of my personal favorites, the complete wonderful alliance that is now brought up via Reebok and there Voltron Sneakers is totally awesome.

Quote from the shoe box; From days long ago, from unchrted regions of the universe comes a legend. The legend of Voltron: Defender of the universe! Voltron loved by mankind was needed once more. This is the story about the specially trained force with one mission to bring back Voltron; Defender of the universe!

I just need to reflect on this product, I feel like a total geek, but this is a true 80’s legend and the euphoric feeling just sweeps trough my entire body.

MILK

Milk01
Milk01Milk01Milk01Milk01

We know this isn’t straight out of the oven warm, But If your thinking of rearranging your office, we recommend you taking a look at the danish designed table MILK, this is the real deal if you ask us. It’s so fresh and so clean, This table has all you need. Built in cable drawer so no more cable chaos, you can easily adjust the hight of the table electronically, It evan has a built in fish tank. Great if you like sushi… or just to watch, A few minutes starring in to the tank is supposed to reduce your stress. A MILK table and a Apple Imac 24″ on top would really make my Christmas one to remember.

Next Down light

Downlight

This is an new way of lighting your apartment, its a downlight lamp and instead of a lamp on top of the pole there is a lamp ring in the bottom. You can easily move it arround and plase it after you own personal needs.

The switch is ergonomical located at the top of the pole, and a illminating ring surrounds the switch so its easy to find it in the dark. Its made out of glass and stainless steel, kinda heavy so it feels expensive, a must have if you like lighting!

Chunky Space Food

Spacefood

It’s time for us to move out to space! Or at least as shown here the spacefood seems pretty nice. Being superfamous is hardworking and well we would love a space meal sometime soon. I hope that the people over at NASA can sponsor us with some so we can review it. And ofcourse it would be a video review. So if anyone have any contacts at NASA please comment or email us.

This is the best looking space food i have ever seen by the way, kinda sushi inspired and strictly fits the superfamous food standard. We give it 4 Stars out of 5, what brings it down is the lack of a proper presentation, the label thing dosen’t do it… Sorry NASA!

Happy Camper Wagon

airstream

Seriously this camper got it all, drop down rear steps, panoramic windows, vacuum-bonded floor and even a installed Ip to hook up your BBQ right to the camper. Well this little mean machine is what we over at the office would love to have when we go on road-trips or maybe when you go tailgating…

To mention some more extended features, well its fully customizable just unleash the creative part of you and go nuts. Why not install a complete home cinema setup and gaming area, a PS3 and you have saved your rather boring weekend. We just like to ride it with our Nissan, and frankly we fucking love this Camper.
