BenQ M7 brushes off dust and water
announcements | benq | benq siemens | devices | dust | m7 | resistant | waterWater and dust. Two things you just don’t want to have getting inside your mobile phone. Weekend warriors will be happy to hear that the new BenQ M7 will put up with their water-borne and dust-filled hijinx in stride. The BenQ M7 features a 2 megapixel camera, forward-facing video-call camera, GPS, tri-band GSM radio with 2100Mhz UMTS, Bluetooth, and a GPS module - all packed into a package that BenQ says is resistant to dust and water. Now, we’re sure this thing won’t make it through a sand-blaster or a dunk in a swimming pool, but the occasional splash or roll in the dirt shouldn’t be a problem. With a built-in GPS module and resistance to dust and water, it seems that this mid-range (it has GPS, afterall) BenQ M7 is going for the “sporty” crowd. We guess that carbon fiber-esque (read: fake) front-face is supposed to appeal to this demographic. Pricing and availability are not yet known.

The ultimate in convergence: Water bottle and mobile phone holder combined
accessories | announcements | bevytech | bottle | gadget | waterWell, it’s not really the ultimate in convergence, but it’s a fairly unique and innovative design nonetheless. We’re talking about the BevyTech Gadget Bottle that holds both your H2O and your mobile device in one convenient place - on the, um, bottle. The BevyTech Gadget Bottle is geared towards the workout-loving gadget freak in search of an all-in-one solution for their hydration and device-toting needs. Made of a translucent (that’s “cloudy white,” in layman’s terms) plastic, the Bevy Tech Gadget Bottle looks like your ordinary, squeezable, 22 oz. water bottle, except it’s got a rectangular cutout in the side. The cutout is designed to hold your mobile phone or media player securely with the four accompanying elastic bands. We’ve got our eye on the BevyTech Gadget Bottle . At $ 8.25 , it’s a pretty cheap answer to our over-stuffed workout shorts. Look for this thing to become available next week.
