With the current popularity of iPods and MP3 players, that trend shows no signs of abating. Although concerned parents can tell their children to keep the volume down on their personal music devices, such a rule can be difficult to enforce – particularly when childrens’ and parents’ ideas of “too loud” could differ significantly. Etymotic’s ETY Kids Safe-Listening Earphones, however, limit the volume to safe levels, even when cranked all the way up. <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/etymotic-ety-kids-safe-listening-earphones/19743/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/health/" style="float: left; ">HEALTH AND WELLBEING</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/ihealth-blood-pressure-and-weight-tracking/19729/">iHealth helps manage your blood pressure and weight on your iPhone</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></p> <p><em>12:52 September 5, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="/web/20111015010709im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/ihealth-blood-pressure-and-weight-tracking/19729/picture/141680/">5 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/ihealth-blood-pressure-and-weight-tracking/19729/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111015010709im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/ihealth.jpg" title="The iHealth Blood Pressure Monitoring System and iHealth Scale allow users to measure and ..." alt="The iHealth Blood Pressure Monitoring System and iHealth Scale allow users to measure and ..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>For many people, a key part of their personal health management routine involves monitoring their blood pressure and weight. Frequently going to get one’s blood pressure measured at a pharmacy or clinic, however, can be a hassle. Well, to paraphrase an advertising slogan, “there’s an app for that” – along with a device. The iHealth Blood Pressure Monitoring System for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad consists of a blood pressure arm cuff wired to a portable dock, along with the free iHealth app, which users run on their chosen iDevice to keep track of their systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. They will also soon be able to throw their weight data into the mix, with the iHealth Scale. <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/ihealth-blood-pressure-and-weight-tracking/19729/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/laptops/" style="float: left; ">LAPTOPS</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/acer-unveils-aspire-s3/19722/">First impressions: Acer reveals Aspire S3 Ultrabook</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/author/paul-ridden/">Paul Ridden</a></p> <p><em>07:34 September 5, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p></p> <p><img src="/web/20111015010709im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/acer-unveils-aspire-s3/19722/picture/141616/">5 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/acer-unveils-aspire-s3/19722/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111015010709im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/aspires3.jpg" title="Acer has unveiled its first 13.3-inch Ultrabook at IFA 2011 - the Aspire S3, which we got ..." alt="Acer has unveiled its first 13.3-inch Ultrabook at IFA 2011 - the Aspire S3, which we got ..."/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Acer has announced its first dip into the Ultrabook market at this year's <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/tag/ifa-2011/" target="_blank">IFA</a>.

The new reader comes in at just 168 grams, two thirds of the weight of the Kindle 3 WiFi and with a host of advantages that include faster and smoother page turns (we tried it), and a dual-touch touchscreen for easy zooming. Unlike the Kindle, it won't lock you to Amazon as the sole provider of your reading material. It's also cheaper and lighter than the model it replaces, but still US$10 dearer than the Kindle at US$149. <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/sony-reader-wifi-touch-screen/19717/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="small" href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/aroundthehome/" style="float: left; ">AROUND THE HOME</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/dyson-dc37/19718/">Dyson unveils its first Ball cylinder vacuum cleaner</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/author/darren-quick/">Darren Quick</a></p> <p><em>23:02 September 4, 2011</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="/web/20111015010709im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/dyson-dc37/19718/#comments">3 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="/web/20111015010709im_/http://www.gizmag.com/images/icons/splashyIcons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/dyson-dc37/19718/picture/141557/">11 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20111015010709/http://www.gizmag.com/dyson-dc37/19718/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20111015010709im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/dysondc37.jpg" title="Dyson's new DC37 is the company's first cylinder vacuum to feature Ball technology" alt="Dyson's new DC37 is the company's first cylinder vacuum to feature Ball technology"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Until now, Dyson's patented Ball technology that lets vacuum cleaners turn on a dime - or rather a ball - has only been available in its upright models.

The biggest point-of-difference from other Android tablets and the heavyweight champ iPad is form factor - the Tablet S gets an unusual asymmetrical shape and the Tablet P throws the conventional tablet format away completely with its clam-shell, dual-screen design.
