Sanrio is known worldwide for their Hello Kitty Merchandise. They have come out with everything from a Hello Kitty Waffle Maker, theme cars, to even a body fat meter! Now they're giving us the Hello Kitty Emergency Gadget.

To be fair, the Emergency Gadget does have very useful features. It's a cellphone charger, flashlight, AM/FM Radio, Hazard Siren, and compass. Another useful feature is that this item can be run off a single nine volt battery.

For all its attempts to being cute, we can see a market pull for this product. It's Hello Kitty, hello?!

Global distributor of mobile Java games, Selatra, has announced that a new FlashLite catalogue is now available, promising to bring your PC's power to your mobile phones.

The FlashLite catalogue was launched at the MobilShow 2006 in Budapest, Hungary. Leading the line of titles are Meteors - a shoot-em-up space game - and Reversi, more popularly known as the classic Othello. There will be more to follow for the range for 2007. In fact, as early as now, the company is already working with JR Visuals to bring more titles by next year.
