Scholtès is on seventh heaven thanks to the accolades coming their way. After the very wanted drink machine they are introducing an awfully cool wine cooler (pun intended). The cooler offers 284 bottle capacity, divided between the 267 bottle ageing compartment with wines stored at preset self-regulating temperature range of 10°C to 14°C, and the 17 bottle cooling compartment where temperatures are set between 4°C and 7°C. Isn’t that just wow? With 284 bottles ready, your guests are not...

I love holiday destinations that prove to be a home away from home only that this new home is beautiful enough to take your breathe away with every inch dipped in pure luxury. I’m talking about the Palazzo Sasso, a stunning five-star deluxe hotel on Italy's famous Amalfi coast. The hotel is a 12th century Italian villa tucked away in the hill top village of Ravello and perched high on the cliffs. So that’s a pinch of history, a...

Living life on land can be touted as uninteresting as you now have the same luxuries in the A380 aircrafts plus you are far above the ground up in the sky. Singapore Airlines, Dubai's Emirates Airlines and Australia's Qantas Airways Ltd. are using their new A380s to push the envelope on cushiness, entertainment and design. Talking of goodies, they are too good to be true but thank your luck or their engineers the too good time is here. When...

They specially produced a doll with the name "Licca–chan" who wears a tiara and gown studded with 881 diamonds, a total of...

British company Very PC has come out with the Fulwood, a Mac Mini-sized desktop computer. The company claims that it uses just 16 watts when idling. If you remember the Shuttle X27 PC, it was low power too, but this baby beats it by a good 23 watts. That is saying a lot. Even though it is energy saving machine, the green PC has not compromised on performance. The Fulwood is capable of four times the performance of rival...

I had long given up on looking for PC cases. They are hard to come by and when they do, they are usually an eye sore. Then I happened to stumble upon this gem. It is a PC case that resembles an End Table and it is the first of its kind and is brought to you by MEdiaCOre. It looks extremely stylish and something you'd dare to keep in your house. It goes without saying that it holds...

What's so special about the Leica S2? Well, it's a medium-format DSLR camera and lens system. It features Kodak's 37.5MP CCD sensor with a 3:2 aspect ratio.

Ready for the road the body is dust and moisture sealed, and features Leica's new S-system bayonet lens mount, for the new line of S...

At cost of reducing high-tech to a circus performance, Japanese firm Murata has developed a robot that can balance itself on a unicycle. The 20"tall robot called Murata Seiko-chan can ride a unicycle with much aplomb and does a better job than most of us here. Modeled on a female kindergartener, the robot features a pair of gyro sensors that detect her posture and angle. A single wheel moves the robot forward and back, and a rotating flywheel in...

An epitome of creativity and beauty, the knobs and pulls which are a part of Edgar Berebi’s collection look like anything but knobs and pulls and that’s a good thing. You could easily mistake them for some 17th century jewels and save that job from dropping on knowing what they really are. Painstakingly produced to include Swarovski crystals, semi-precious stones and gold plating, each item of this luxury architectural hardware is in itself a work of art. Berebi’s collection...

The Emmy's are a big deal event and people have different reasons for watching them. The most obvious one is to check out their favourite stars and shows being honored! For me however, the main reason is fashion. Put a bunch of stars on a red carpet and you know you will either witness some amazing creations or some amazing fashion fiascoes. The 60Th Annual Prime-time Emmy Awards on September 21 featured something of great interest to me. What...
