Bluetooth into every case
We´ve already mentioned that some companies (Toshiba, in particular) planned to implement Bluetooth into consumer electronics — into a fridge, microwave oven and washing machine — to provide status information to owner and some feedback like a fridge buying missing products or microwave oven warming up food.
Samsonite found another interesting application for Bluetooth: in March at CeBIT it showed this case:
The company promised that Hardlite ICT 625 business case will appear for sale already in September, but it hasn´t sounded somehow yet, though a similar case was noticed in retail. Pity, because Hardlite ICT 625 was promised to keep travel info, have some tricks against potential thieves, a security ID chip (though I guess the degree of belief to these chips won´t be high case-scale), and, most importantly, download all necessary info via Bluetooth.
