This one is too cool to pass up. A Scottish research team has come up with a way to give an audio and tactile indication as to how many messages are in your inbox and how full your battery is. Shake your phone, if it seems like there is a little ball bouncing around inside of it you've got a message. Have 2 messages? Two balls will bounce around inside. Checking your battery life will result in a sensation similar to water being inside your device. When your battery is full, it will make a sloshing sound like your device is full of water, when it's near empty it will seem like there's just a little sip left. We all know the OQO model 02 has an accelerometer, I think it's just a matter of time before we get start shaking our UMPCs to find out how much battery power we have left.

Check out the Shoogle site for more information.
