As we head into the heart of the holiday season, most of our wish lists are full of must haves for the New Year. If Zhu Zhu pets and Twilight merchandise aren’t topping your list, here are just a few gadgets and gizmos the EPR team is hoping for this year
1. Charging Pads
Between the new Duracell myGrid charger and the Wildcharger for iPhones, we are looking forward to kissing our power cords goodbye in the New Year. Just plop the phone in its case and let it sit on the charging pad without the mess of cords and wires.
2. The Ultimate Smartphone
There seems to be several options for those looking for the ultimate in mobile devices. Whether it’s the Droid’s navigation and seamless Google integration or the endless iPhone app store, there are plenty options to please every consumer. Some of us are particularly excited by the new hydrogen-powered phones purported to make their debut in 2010. These phones are “hybrids” that draw on conventional batteries and hydrogen fuel cells. Each fuel cell cartridge gives the equivalent of three to five recharges when compared to traditional batteries. I guess with a hydrogen-powered phone, maybe we won’t need charging pads after all.
3. Flip Ultra™ or MinoHD™
“Do you flip?” because EPR does. It’s been a great addition to the EPR family in 2009 for on-the-fly videos such as our Halloween costume contest and holiday gift exchange. We also find more practical purposes for it as well such as client testimonials and industry chalk-talks. Here’s hoping Santa will bring us the newest model for 2010!
4. Roku
What better season than now to cozy up at home with thousands of movies at your fingertips? There are other Internet video-on-demand boxes but Roku is the manufacturer for the first Netflix streaming receiver box. It also provides unlimited access to Netflix's streaming catalog, Amazon Video on Demand, and MLB.TV.
According to Amazon, the Kindle is the #1 most wished for gift this year. With a screen advertised to read like paper, you can access books, newspapers, magazines and blogs on-the go without the annoying glare.
