Nokia is known for being the world’s number one provider of mobile phones. Over the years, Nokia remained to be at the top position despite the growing number of mobile phone companies along with the innovative phones released to the market. Nokia now introduces their latest business phones: the E71 and the sliding E66 that features a full keyboard. These phones will be released in the market on July this year. These phones which could be availed for approximately $540 or 350 euros are expected to capture the interest of its corporate clients giving a good competition for other business phone producers such as Canada’s RIM and Sony Ericsson.

Both of these phones have a resolution 3.2 Megapixels where the E71 is only 10 mm thick, so far the thinnest mobile phone with a complete QWERTY keyboard. This stylish E66 comes with a slide that adds some spice and fashion to your phone. However, the phones do not include a Blackberry service which is included in the corporate phones released earlier by Nokia. But according to Nokia, this will not be a major problem since a wide range of emails are still offered on its devices.

I am a morning person – this is the reason why I don’t have to grab three alarm clocks, set them all at the same time just to wake up early to have enough time to prepare for work. I also have an active body clock that wakes me up at exactly six in the morning to perform my daily routines. But not everyone is a morning person, nor got their body clocks properly installed. That’s why alarm clocks now come in different forms: mobile phones, pillows and now, in blankets.

For a lot of people, waking up on time is really a challenge and truly a struggle for some. The REMY Alarm Clock Blanket makes use of biometrics; REMY applies a distant cam that records your body movements. It is capable of sensing whether it’s time for you to jump out off your bed. Every morning, when the time that you “set” was reached, the blanket will render different light patterns mimicking the light of the rising sun, peeking through your window that gently wakes you up.

This alarm clock blanket is perfect for people who can’t sleep with and easily awakened by light; but is useless for those who can sleep with both lights on or off.
