New Hustle is all about keeping up with the latest and greatest tech and toys – and what’s the point of hustling as hard as we do everyday without having in mind exactly what it is we would like out of life? We decide where to put our hard earned money – and I’d put mine in the next 7 items. Of course, money can’t buy happiness – but it can bring a lot of temporary smiles. That being said, on to my favorite top 7 items that keep me inspired daily to keep on grinding out improvement after improvement of the self.
1. The JJAD P1E
Excerpt taken from www.carbodydesign.com
The car will combine a design inspired by the Lancia Stratos with an electric powertrain with two electric motors – one for each axle – and lithium-ion batteries, for a total power output of 390 hp and 590lb-ft of torque.Thanks to the extensive use of lightweight materials (composite body panels on a hybrid aluminum-carbon fiber structure) the total mass is expected to be about 1,050 kg.
Estimated performance figures are a range of 200 miles, a 0-60 mph sprint in 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 130 mph. Look out for it in 2012.
2. The Somnus-Neu Bed

The Somnus-Neu bed includes:
• An internet connection, either through wifi or ethernet.
• An entire audio-visual system with an HD video projector and 5-point audio system that includes drivers mounted beneath the mattress—hook up an iPod, watch cable TV or DVDs or stream media online.
• Mechanized curtains and a drop-down screen that can be used to completely enclose the mattress.
• LED lighting under, above and around the bed—turn on a reading light, create your own light show or set a sensual mood.
3. sunRED Solar Powered Motorcycle
Named sunRED, this solar powered motorcycle prototype is currently being built. The solar panels are retractable, and supposedly can charge within 2.5 hours. The panels continue to work when the cover is down, but at a far less absorption rate. Apparently the speed is something to be improved, but I’ll keep my eye out.
4. Digital Newspaper Reader
Saves paper, and it’s just cool. Automatically updates when the digital version is released and charges at the same time. Was the winner of a bronze medal at the 2009 IDEA awards. Amazing innovation.
5. Light emitting wallpaper
From Dutch designer Jonas Samson, you can turn the design on and off – thus having regular wallpaper or stylish designs lit up underneath. Creates stunning ambiance within any room.
6. The Phillips Aurea
Ever since Phillips came out with their Ambilight, I was hooked. Now they’ve taken it a step up with the Aurea. Led lights emit a backdrop of the colors that are on the screen, enhancing your viewing experience. I’ll take one for each room.
7. A Green Roof
Check out this great article about how these green roofs have the potential to offset global warming. Imagine if every business and/or house accommodated a green roof – the impact we could have on the environment would be astounding. And, you’ll have your own personal garden to maintain instead of wasting your time on Farmville.
