A Tokyo-based design company called Phiria has recently launched Bijin Tokei (Hot Girl Clock), a site where you get to see one sexy Japanese girl every minute for 24 hours. The girls hold up time cards which are updated every minute, so every time you look at the gadget, you will  know what time it is and get to see pretty girls simultaneously. You can also check out their blood type, occupation and cup size.

You can get the full Bijin Tokei experience alternatively as a gadget for iGoogle gadget or Windows Vista by clicking here (good thing there are no language barriers in this case).

Shiro’s SQ media player takes a sustainable approach to playing your mp3s and videos.  On the rear panel of the SQ, a solar cell generates electricity from direct sunlight– enough to fully charge the unit in four hours.  Beyond the stardard mp3/wav/wma playback, the Shiro SQ also includes an FM tuner and a small mic for voice recording.  While we have only seen poor renderings at this point (note that the above is a collage of the rear of the SQ and the front of the VT), but pictures, pricing and release dates will likely hit the web soon.  – via Gear Crave
