Beeping Wallets This
line of hi-tech Beeping Wallets can protect you against the loss of
credit and debit cards or other types of "plastic" money. The wallet
beeps whenever a card is removed and continues to beep every 20 seconds
to remind you to replace it. The beeping mechanism shuts off after 5
minutes. It can also protect your library cards, driver's license and
other membership cards. It operates by using a small microchip and a
standard replaceable watch battery with a 3 year warranty. The
electronic wallet comes in styles for both men and women. For
international travellers, a passport style with the beeping security
system is offered to protect the passport from being lost or stolen.
These wallets look just like any other designer wallets and feature the
finest leather selections with the electronic technology of the future.
"The Beeping Wallet is intended to help people who forget their credit
cards at store counters," said the Los Angeles Times. However, The
Beeping Wallet is so much more than that. The Wallet is the only product
of its kind, designed to notify you when something is missing from your
wallet, such as your driver's license, or a credit card, or even one of
your $50 dollar bills. Designed with superior craftsmanship and superior
material, these Wallets offer everything you could ever need...and then
some.

NuMetrex
line of clothes that monitor the body provides a comfortable alternative
to the cumbersome heart monitoring chest straps that tend to chafe, slip
and loosen during workouts. NuMetrex garments -- including the Heart
Sensing Sports Bra, Cardio Shirt for Men, and Racer Tank -- offer
seamless comfort combined with superior monitoring performance. They
sense heart rate through stretchy fabric electrodes that are knit
directly into the fabric, and send that data to a compatible wrist watch
or cardio machine via a tiny transmitter that is snapped into a pocket
in the garment. Launched by Textronics Inc. in December 2005, the
NuMetrex Heart Sensing Sports Bra was named 2006 Sports Product of the
Year by the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association.
