Logicool (widely known as Logitech outside Japan) recently unveiled two new webcams, the QCam (model: QCAM-30V) and QCam Deluxe (model: QCAM-130V). Nothing special with the specs — 1.3 megapixel sensor, up to 640×480 resolution, instant snapshot button — but both cams definitely have a cool stylish design. The price is set at 5000 Yen and 7000 Yen respectively.

3bsystem unveiled a cool pet care system, the PetWatch. It’s cool because it can be controlled via internet or cellular phones. It’s cool because you can feed your pet anytime anywhere without having to worry your lovely dog will be starved. It’s cool because it comes with an integrated webcam which makes it possible for you to keep an eye on your pet even (320×240 QVGA) when you’re in the office. It’s cool because an optional 802.11 WiFI module can be added and later you can avoid the hassle of connecting the device using wires.

Unfortunately, there’s no information about the price and availability of the PetWatch pet care system which makes it a little less cool.
