What time is it now?

Introduction:
Almost every person that has pocket music player at least once asked himself a question - why am I lying with eyes closed listening favourite music with perfect player, relaxing but with any ability to know what time is it now without eyes opening, turning on screen, or even turn on the lights in a room?

Note, that there are lot's of devices without screen at all (iPod shuffle for instance).

So there is a simple solution!
Solution:
Almost any pocket device (player, media player or even electronic watches) can be equipped with quite simple extension - by double click on Play button (or any other button if doubleclick on Play is already used) SPEAK current time on a currently selected language.
Samples for current time speaking are insignificantly small nowadays even if device have them on 20 languages.

Also it can be a marketing feature that didn't met on devices before

Universal server storage for various small amount of mobile devices related sync data

Introduction:
Nowadays almost every person has at least several devices or computers (mobile or not): phones, smartphones, netbooks, laptops, desktops at home and in offices etc.
But there is still no universal API and centralized storage providing smooth fast and universal syncronization between devices, software etc.

Solution:
It is possible to design universal API for any operating system and programming language that encapsulates the following amount of data and functionality using set of applicable rules and meta-description of real data. Server side most likely will be web-services accessible from any internet-enabled device.

Let's try to put several examples:

Example 1:
Rules:
For every mail application (category)
OR
Microsoft Live client

Data:
Contact list in standard xml based format

Access:
My account only from any device type

Example 2:
Rules:
For every book/periodic reader application (several subcategories of reader devices category)

Data:
Current bookmarks and end of last read page (with symbol precise cause pages can be different on different devices). Per book/periodic

Access:
My account, my family members group, my friends group (if they have such ISBNned book)

And so on for music players (iPod, desktop winamp etc), video stop moment, last web browsing session (urls + cookies + possibly login session info)

That will provide unbelievable transparency through devices rotation in person's life and will require not so big amount of storage cause only links/bookmarks/keys will be stored
