Video in Motion Unlocker SmartTV by Mods4cars Available for Volkswagen

Leave a comment

Aftermarket automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars now offers a hardware video in motion unlocker module “SmartTV” which is compatible with many Volkswagen models. The kit allows passengers to operate the factory built-in TV and DVD multimedia system while the car is in motion. A quick key combination turns the speed bypass on or off.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), Monday – March 05, 2012 — Effective immediately, passengers in many current Volkswagen models get to enjoy the TV and DVD playback functionality while the car is moving at any speed. The add-on hardware designed and made by Mods4cars ( http://www.mods4cars.com ) removes all speed restrictions car manufacturers usually put in place to prevent use of multimedia features while driving. This allows passengers to enjoy multimedia entertainment on road trips.

“We now have a professional, non-volatile hardware solution for our customers‘ TV and DVD on the road needs”, says PR manager Sven Tornow. “Our product can quickly be enabled and disabled with simple key combinations. Since it is a hardware solution, OEM software updates regularly done at the dealer during warranty repairs or routine inspections will not erase the functionality as is usually the case with software-based unlocks.” Sven Tornow continues.

The SmartTV video unlocker module is designed, developed and made by aftermarket electronics specialist Mods4cars. The company has been in the business of engineering highly sophisticated convertible top add-on modules called SmartTOP for 10 years. The SmartTOP modules allow drivers to conveniently open and close the top while driving at slow speeds and from the key fob remote. “Now we can offer a professionally designed product that does not require a convertible”, Sven Tornow concludes.

All automotive modules offered by Mods4cars come with a standard USB port for quick and easy updates as well as simple configuration of user specific settings with the help of a custom support software program. Updates are offered free of charge for the life of the product.

The TV/DVD in motion unlocker SmartTV is compatible with the Volkswagen audio systems MFD-2, RNS-300 and RNS-510.

Additional SmartTV modules are available for Bentley, BMW, Mercedes Benz and Skoda.

SmartTOP rooftop modules are available for: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo.

The SmartTV kit is available for 149 Euros + tax.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

The UK’s middle classes are those most likely to utilise online voucher codes to save according to a new survey. The poll has been carried out by leading retail deals website DiscountVouchers.co.uk, and found that more well off areas of the country are home to the most voucher users.

Respondents to the poll conducted by the money-saving website showed that the middle classes around the country are those who most regularly use retail vouchers to get themselves savings on their favourite, must-have labels.

In order, the top ten UK places for using voucher codes were revealed to be:

• Twickenham
• Guildford
• Truro
• Chester
• Canterbury
• Durham

Gerard Doyle, DiscountVouchers.co.uk CEO, commented: “Interestingly the more traditionally middle class places like Twickenham and Guildford were shown to be the places in the UK where shoppers are most likely to save money using online voucher codes.”

“However at the opposite end of the survey were cities like Liverpool and Leeds, places where consumers were shown to be up to three times less likely to use money-saving voucher codes to get more for their budgets.”

The DiscountVouchers.co.uk service has seen ‘middle class’ stores like Ocado, White Stuff, M&S and French Connection prove particularly popular with users in recent times.

The DiscountVouchers.co.uk poll found the ten least likely users of voucher codes to be located in:

Get ready as this suspenseful thriller about a trio of Chicago and Kansas City crimes bosses and an FBI Special Agent takes you on one serious rollercoaster ride. Carmine and Michael Bernazzoli of the Chicago Outfit has consolidated power with Thomas Galluccio of the Kansas City Outfit for many years. Their ability to make money, exercise power, and minimize bloodshed within the multi-billion dollar unions of the Teamsters has always been their clear objectives.

A new threat has arisen. That very threat is FBI Special Agent Wilfredo Feliciano. The Bernazzoli Brothers and Galluccio always believed that everybody had a price, that is, until Feliciano came onto the scene. Feliciano has been christened to investigate the unholy alliance between the Teamsters and powerful organized crime figures. The Chicago and Kansas City Mafia outfits are aware of how their notorious crime families will feel the hot breath of the U. S. Government closing in if Feliciano gathers all of his important data.

Money and power proves how the most precious jewel in their crown is the International Brotherhood of the Teamsters. As a last desperate measure, a band of bloodthirsty contract killers have been sanctioned by the Bernazzoli Brothers and Galluccio to take out Agent Feliciano. Will the three crime lords make their move on Feliciano before it’s too late? Fasten your seatbelts since this supremely fascinating tale of greed, power, corruption, betrayal, and sex goes where the shadows of a violent death lurks deep in the dark inner sanctums.

Learn how, for Valentines day and beyond, to transform a tantrum into a love fest, a happier, deeper love connection with your kids without giving up or giving in!

Valentines day was recently here and at this time of year we don’t usually like to focus on the negatives in our relationships with our loved ones, but at some point in time every parent usually says (or at least thinks) My kids are driving me crazy! or they are embarrassed, again, when in public, or with friends or family, their little (or not so little) one has a temper tantrum.

Wouldn’t it be great to feel cool, calm and collected and even loving when faced with a tantrum And what’s more, what if as a Valentines day present to you (and your kids) you could stop tantrums or even prevent them.

Here are 5 tips from Tantrums 911 Parenting expert, Valerie Jampolsky for parents to transform their kids tantrums into a deeper loving connection with their kids without “giving up” or “giving in”:

1. Put on Your Oxygen Mask First: Before saying anything to your child, take a couple deep breaths and give yourself some self-empathy in the moment (e.g., I’m really frustrated, I really need things to be easier) and remind yourself of your overall parenting goals of connection, trust, mutual giving, instead of resentment, judgment and rebellion (i.e., when you’re not looking, or as teenagers, even when you are looking!)

2. Be a Video Camera, Not a Prosecuting Attorney: Observe what your child is doing as if you are a video camera, without judgment or creating enemy images of your child.

3. Look Under the Tip of the Iceberg with an Open Heart: Lovingly ask questions (not interrogate) to find out what is the real underlying need that your child is trying to meet (i.e., don’t focus on the current strategy/behavior) until your child gets that you get their needs without judgment: Are you feeling (x) because you need (y)

4. Brainstorm Solutions Together: Ask if your child is willing to hear your needs and brainstorm solutions together to meet both your needs. For preverbal kids, invite fun alternatives to meet their needs that also meets your needs or sometimes, just connecting so they get that you get and support their needs is enough (more on how to do that in the Tantrums 911 App coming soon!).

5. Open Eyes, Open Arms Open Heart: A Preventative measure: Be there with open eyes, open arms and open heart, when your kids come to you and practice these same skills when there is no crisis (I.e., share their joy of meeting a need) (e.g., Wow! You built a big tower of blocks! Was that fun).

Valerie Jampolsky is a single parent of two amazing twin boys, a child and family therapist, an entertainment attorney and the creator of the App, Tantrums 911 available now for iPhones and iPads http://tinyurl.com/6p6d8fp and coming soon for Android phones.

Luxury Travel Ltd to Show Some of the Most Dynamic New Products Available for 2012 – 2013 at ITB Berlin 2012

Leave a comment

Vietnam’s First Luxury Tour Operator and DMC (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) attends ITB Berlin with Most Innovative Packages and Invites Professionals to Visit Vietnam.

Hanoi, Vietnam, March 04, 2012 – Vietnam –based Luxury Travel Ltd is a long established Asian specialist in luxury privately guided and fully bespoke holidays in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar and Thailand. Luxury Travel Ltd attends ITB Berlin from 7-11 March 2012 which is the world’s leading travel trade show.

A number of exciting Laos luxury tours include Discover Laos in Style 10 days ( Trip Code DLIS10 ), Northern Laos Explorer 11 Days 10 Nights ( Trip Code ENLE11 ), Laos Luxury Adventure Tour from South to North by Overland 12 days ( Trip Code LLATSN12 ).

“For many travelers, the image of this landlocked country is laid-back, serene, rustic, and mountainous in the bank of Mekong River. Laos keeps its ancient charm largely intact. Though small, the country has an exceptionally varied topography, which in turn has led to a multilayered culture. Landlocked Laos has not the coastline and beach but this country does have four thousand islands in South Laos and has the Khonephabangeng fall, the largest waterfall in Southeast Asia. Apart from the 4000 islands, southern Laos’s main attraction is the temple of Wat Phou, a World Heritage listed site, in Champasak.’ Said David Nguyen Sales and Marketing Manager of Luxury Travel Ltd

Luxe Cambodia is on the rise. Teeming with history, marvelous architecture and awash in natural beauty, Cambodia is fast becoming a must see destination in South East Asia . The largest religious monument ever built, Angkor Wat ranks at the top of globetrotting VIP – must see list of wonders in the word. The newest tours includes “Discover Cambodia from highlights to relaxation in 12 days” Mixing Charm and Adventure in a Tour of Cambodia, Treasure of Cambodia 8 days

“The majority of travelers to Cambodia come for short trips to Seam Reap and the Angkor Temples but Southern beach around Sihanoukville is gaining popularity, thank to new tourism infrastructure, new hotels and airlines links. The perception of Cambodia being dangerous has entirely changed and we now see our clients doing overland tours between provinces and overland country combinations between Laos, Thailand and Vietnam” said Richard Parks, Luxury Travel Ltd UK

Myanmar offers a fascinating journey of discovery through one of South East Asia’s least visited, but most rewarding countries with its ancient temples, golden beaches and smiling faces. From the unforgettable temples in Bagan and Mandalay’s fabled history, to largely undiscovered white sand beaches at Ngapali and the placid waters of Inle Lake, Myanmar has a wealth of treasures that exceed the expectations of those who visit.

Discover Myanmar from Highlights to Beach Relaxation 12 days “On this latest Myanmar tour, you will discover the best places in Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay and Inle Lake, while you also get to rest and relax on the best beach in Myanmar on the Bay of Bengal in the Indian Ocean” said Pham Ha, CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd “Myanmar’s appeal to luxury travelers lies in the way it has been unaffected by modern developments. The country attracts an increasing number of high-end visitors with its colonial properties such as the Orient Express’ Governor’s Residence in Yangon and growing number of boutique hotels across the country. The deeply Buddhist “Land of the Golden Pagoda” resonates with a strong sense of place, undiluted by mass tourism and warmed by genuine hospitality. You will find atmospheric hotels and a network of well-maintained regional jets serving the main sites. Ask luxury travel advisor team for visa and keep in mind that the Burmese economy remains largely cash-based”

For Vietnam, the country receives 100,000 German tourists yearly, and the number of tourists increases year after year. The new slogan of Vietnam tourism –– “Timeless charm,” was created with an aim to attract long haul travelers from Germany and elsewhere, who wish to experience its defining characteristics: Thrills, nature, heritage, festival, pristine, enjoyment, scenery and essence.

“Discerning travelers look for an authentic travel experience in Vietnam and focus on the whole experience and tend to be cash-rich and time-poor, and are happy to pay luxury travel advisors to take the time putting tours together for them. Those experiences that no one else can provide. lt’s authenticity coupled with luxury” commented Pham Ha

Luxury Travel Ltd has exotic Vietnam, luxury meets heritage on Ho Chi Minh Trail in 29 days among many new others tours. Exotic Southern Vietnam Tour in 12 days, Adventure Holiday in Vietnam, You Explore a Mix of Culture, Nature, Adv enture and Relaxation 18 days, Vietnam Chic Adventure Tour in 14 days, The Charm & Natural Beauty of North-Eastern Vietnam 9 days, Discover the charm of Ninh Binh by Bike 2 days

“To help our travel agents and tour operators to sell our Vietnam luxury tours at ITB Berlin 2012, I invite travel professionals to do a 9 day familiarization trip to Vietnam. Participants receive a certificate of Luxury Travel Specialist after the trip. The perfect way to learn more about Vietnam and some of the most dynamic new products available for 2012 – 2013, this tour blends innovative touring with hotel inspections to give agents insight the destinations and become true luxury travel advisors.” added Pham Ha, Founder and CEO of Luxury Travel Co.,Ltd.
