PAPAGO! unveils new dashboard cameras

PAPAGO! will help keep an eye out on the road for you with three new dashboard cameras—the LORA-GoSafe 381, GoSafe 272, and GoSafe 118. If you want to take video from any angle, the LORA-GoSafe 381 is for you. If you want to record your travels and share them with loved ones, check out the GoSafe 272. If you want something unobstrusive, the GoSafe 118 is a micro-sized dashcam that you can hide behind your rearview mirror.

These PAPAGO! dashcams also come equipped with Driver Assistance System to keep you alert on the road. It has features like driver fatigue alarm, light reminder to turn on your headlights when it’s getting dark, stop sign recognition, and lane departure warning system, among others. Best Buy Canada will be carrying the LORA-GoSafe 381 exclusively. The other two models are also available through Best Buy.

Secure your digital data with lynk

We’re making it easier and easier for cyber criminals to access our personal information right from the tiny computers (a.k.a. smartphones) that we carry around with us. That’s where Toronto-based startup uConekt Inc. wants to help us out with their new Indiegogo campaign for the multipurpose device called lynk. It helps keep your mobile identity secure with four-layer authentication and patent-pending encryption technology where your passwords and PINs are stored.

lynk will also give you access to these information so you can access your bank accounts, trading accounts, and even shop online more securely. Aside from that, the device can even alert you if you misplaced your phone. It’s also a mobile wallet thanks to Near Field Communication. Battery life isn’t an issue since it can last for three to four months. And then you can just swap it with a CR2032 battery. The device is available in black, white, blue, red, and bronze. Early backers just need to pay $59 to get a lynk device. The product is expected to be shipped and delivered by the end of July 2015.

The goal is obviously to get more people to pay or subscribe to Office 365 service. There seems to be a boost in that area as well as the company says there are now 12.4 million consumers paying for Office 365.
