Ovetto Recycling Egg looks hungry

Ovetto Recycling Egg looks hungryThe Ovetto Recycling Egg may not have landed with Mork From Ork, but it’s ready to help you recycle. It’s creator, Gianluca Soldi, has high hopes for the Ovetto as “an object that meets the needs of domestic waste separation in order to educate the population to correctly dispose of waste in order to be able to consequently recycle it.”

It not only fits easily in modern homes and offices, but it looks pretty damn awesome in a 2001: A Space Odyssey sort of way. It may be the neatest egg I’ve ever seen. And it’s good for the environment. The Ovetto is even made of recycled polypropylene. At £139.99 you really can’t go wrong with a futuristic egg. I’m just saying.

Egg Speaker charger concept
I’d like to officially say that this device is the last egg straw. There seems to be an overabundance of egg themed gadgets lately, and I think we might be abusing the whole egg thing. There’s the egg phone, wobbly egg speakers, even the egg mouse to name just a few. You gadget creators are driving me crazy with the eggs already!

Now for the latest…egg. The Egg Speaker Charger Concept device functions as a pair of satellite speakers when ‘hatched’ open, with its base functioning as a subwoofer. The base will also double as a dock for a compatible MP3 player, charging your device through induction.

Egg-citing egg shaped mobile phone
An egg shaped mobile phone seems to have surfaced sunny-side up from designer Roman Tubl, though it looks more like a mini-surf board. For some reason it’s referred to as an egg. It is an eye catcher with it’s soft rounded body surrounded by an illuminated red strip.

Like an egg, it’s surface is smooth with a flexi true color display. It also sports a touch screen, so you can interact with it easier. The device has standard ports like Bluetooth, USB and WifFi, while it’s 3.2 MP camera will let you take pics. Nothing on a release date or price. At the moment, it’s probably still in the concept stage.

Easter Egg Speakers wobble but won’t fall down

Easter Egg Tumble SpeakerWe’ve seen our share of portable speakers and so far our favorite so far has to be the X-Mini Capsule speakers, mostly because they are compact and they went wireless recently. Close behind would probably be the Easter Egg Tumbler Speaker. This device, like the X-Mini, pops open to extend out the chamber a little bit and add some more bass into the pint-sized speaker (or about as much base as you can expect from something like this.) It also comes egg-shaped and heavy at one end so that it can’t be tipped over when being bumped around on your desk

Each comes as a single speaker with an audio cable for input and a USB cable that powers and charges in the internal battery. No word on exactly how much juice the speaker puts out but we’re guessing 1W, and it’s pretty hard to say on the battery life if you wanted to use this with your media player.
