Omnisphere

Not much has been really happening on on tech front off late. There has been usual Vista bashing and unusual gadget launches. None of them has caught the eye so far. There is one, however, that made me take notice. At first sight, it looked like a table lamp or a piece of decor. Looking closely only reavealed its true nature. It was Aigo Omnisphere. Looking like an object from outer space, this is actually an MP3 player. A look at it would make you think that this was a hi-fi product. As a matter of fact, it is hi-fi, if you can call an MP3 player as hi-fi.

Working on inbuilt 1GB memory, Aigo is a highly evolved player. Equipped with an expandable memory slot, Aigo is capable of playing all around music. That means you are not devoid of sound in any corner of your room. The best part about this device, though, is not it's music playing capability. It is the magic of 4096 lights that change along with the music that makes this player a unique one. At first, you will keep looking for controls and then realise that it works just by a simple twist of cone top. Highly thoughtful I say. To top it all, cost will leave you spinning like a cone. Pretty affordable at INR 5250, Aigo is a multi utility gadget in its own way.
