Most of our orders are from repeat customers. Parts-People began as a small company 20 years ago in an extra bedroom of my house. I had saved a small sum of money to purchase some computer parts and began selling them on eBay. After a few months I realized that people needed a place to go for Dell parts so I began building our website. Since we are located in Austin, Texas, where Dell.com was founded, I was able to set up a solid supply line with Dell. From the start, we focused on customer satisfaction and selling quality parts. We have grown a lot since 2002 but still and always the customer will come first. You will find that we go above and beyond with every order and offer free resources and support before and after the sale.

A recent study from the GlobalWebIndex found that while nearly eighty percent of online adults own a smartphone, less than 20 percent own or use smart wearables. For a market that was once touted as the future of technology, the desire and innovation in the field of smart wearables seems to be waning. Google Glass is pricey and often times awkward, smartwatches lack the fashion-forward flair of their dumber, more stylish predecessors “the watch”, and most of the smartbands out there are designed for specific niche markets. But what if a smart wearable device could turn the user themself into the smartphone? A French company called Cicret is striving to build just that wearable.
The team at Paris-based technology firm Cicret has been hard at work developing a prototype of a wearable gadget that projects the display of smartphones and tablets onto the forearm of its users. The Cicret bracelet would provide a full color and touch experience to the wearer, and can do far more than just answer calls. According to the official website of Cicret, the device lets you “Read your emails, play your favorite games, answer your calls, check the weather, find your way… Do whatever you want on your arm”. Plus, assuming you’re not a bad witch, the device (AKA you) is totally waterproof.
The Cicret bracelet uses an embedded system with a Pico mini projector to display the smartphone screen to which the Cicret is synced, along with a microprocessor and proximity sensors. It would also house a memory card, a micro USB port, a small battery, a Bluetooth chip, a Wi-Fi chip, an LED light and even a vibrator. According to the promo clip released late last year, the device is activated and deactivated with the simple flick of a hand – pretty neat. How it works is rather fascinating as well – your finger interacts with a long-range proximity sensor that intercepts your finger, capturing its movements, and sends it back to your phone, similar to the way your smartphone’s camera recognizes the range of the object you’re focusing on. When this technology is paired with the Pico projector, Cicret co-creator Guillaume Pommier feels the Cicret bracelet will be pretty incredible.
The company hopes to launch the Cicret bracelet in ten different colors in both 16GB and 32GB variants; that is, if it ends up getting made at all. The Paris-based start-up says that they need 700,000 Euros (just under $870,000.00 USD) in order to finish the first prototype of the bracelet; as of today, the website states that only 16% of that goal has been met. After a failed attempt at an Indiegogo campaign raised just over one thousand dollars of the half-million dollar goal that was initially set, interested parties can now donate to the smartskin revolution via Paypal at www.cicret.com. If the bracelet goes forward as planned, co-creator Pommier says that he has already partnered with component manufacturers to get fair prices for parts in order to make the product affordable. The goal, he states, is “I want the bracelet to be available for everyone”.
