Reware ProFolio - Solar power bag for business

ProFolio.jpg Reware made a big impression in the solar bag market last June with the introduction of the Beach Tote, an outstanding practical and stylish beach tote with solar charging function.

This year, Reware is giving the solar power to the business people that can only dream from being on the beach right now.

The ProFolio is a roomy attaché, good and solid looking, not too fancy - it’s after all for business purpose that gives your laptop, iPod and Blackberry a comfortable and protective home with charging capability while rushing from one meeting to the other on sunny days.

Laptop charging will not be possible based on the power rating of the solar panel but all your other electronic stuff will be charged fine. You do need to have an car-charger adapter for your device like iPod or PDA as Reware’s bags use the car-charger plug as their standard connector.

It’s easy from their perspective but not everyone owns a car-charger for the iPod and others so make sure you have or buy one when picking up the ProFolio.

Having said this, the ProFolio is an OK bag that can give you the extra minutes to finish your all important business call. Better save that sorry.

You can get this classic briefcase for and introductory price of $299.00 directly from Reware’s online store.

If you have a bit (more) money to spare you might hold off right now and wait for the Voltaic Generator brief case that can power even your laptop but it will set you back by $599.00

As always, the choice is yours we only point you in the right direction ;-)

Primarily designed for use with iPod nano and shuffle players, the i-XPS has a transparent window allowing access to menu controls while the built-in NXT mono speaker is on the back of the case.

Being a splash-proof case it will also protect against sand and dust. A simple yet practical iPod/MP3 player protection which comes in three vibrant designs (from left to right): Stone, Spray and Splash.

Check for hot-spot with the Wiffinder bag from Soyntec

wiffinder_urban_bag.JPGFinding a usable WiFi signal is becoming an everyday routine for many of the ‘always connected’ net-citizen. Knowing if you are in a so called ‘hot spot’ means taking out your Laptop and check if the signal is good enough for a quick surf on the net.

Luckily there are more convenient ways to make the hot-spot check. For one, you could go for the WiFi T-Shirt or buy one of the newly launched Wiffinder™ bags from Soyntec®

Soyntec® a Spanish company focusing on digital consumer electronics and computer peripherals and bringing together state-of-the art technologies with amazing designs, has started to launch a range of bags that have a WiFi sniffer integrated.

Integrating is a smart idea, no need to clutter your key ring or bag with yet another item and no danger that you loose the little WiFi checker that is, as long as you don’t loose your entire bag which is less likely than a small WiFi detector unit.

The integrated WiFi signal detector works with 2.4G, 802.11b/802.11g networks and has as additional bonus a clock. Press a button and the detector will lock around for a signal gives the strength of the signal.

Powered is the detector by 2x CR2032 Lithium Batteries. The detector is only active for a few seconds when the button is pressed, just long enough to look for a signal and show it’s strength. I guess the batteries will last for quite some time.

Wiffinder_bag_range.JPG

Soyntec® has four models in their program: the Urban Bag, Executive Case Bag, University Backpack and Trolley Suitcase (from left to right).

The Urban Bag (my personal favorite for it’s good look) and the University Backpack are available now for $ 63.30 each. The other two models will become available on February 11.

All bags are made of Nylon high density material and fits laptops up to 15.4″ (17” for the Trolley Suitcase).

A great idea packed in a stylish design, this WiFi detector is less geeky and more discrete yet sophisticated than the WiFi T-Shirt which is more for the fun loving net-citizen.

Check out Soyntec’s online store for more details.
