autographer.com | $600 (in Europe; U.S. launch to come) – Designed to serve as a visual diary, the hands-free digital camera (meant to be worn like a lanyard) takes up to 2,000 photos, and stores them on a mobile app or can transfer them to other devices via Bluetooth. A wide-angle lens captures a 136-degree view, wider than most cameras, making it perfect for concerts or live events like Coachella. The wearable camera, produced by OMG, whose devices have been used to film “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” and “Tron: Legacy,” also sports built-in GPS, as well as sensors to detect motion, changes in color and acceleration.
The Lumia 1020 packs a powerful 41-megapixel lens that captures sharp photos in 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio in a sleek, well-designed lightweight body. Consider the Lumia a very suitable alternative to Apple’s iPhone and Samsung’s Galaxy S4.

The app fixes the need to print, sign and fax documents, instead digitally uploading a signature from your phone onto a form that can simply be forwarded. It also provides a number that can be used by a
mobile device to receive faxes.
