The Case of the Disappearing YouTube Video

Robert Cringely takes issue with YouTube's blind compliance with DMCA requests by looking at a pulled interview that reportedly potentially poses problems for Steve Jobs in regards to a lawsuit between Apple and Burst.com. The problem is that the actual copyright holder, Oregon Public Broadcasting, never filed a request, but it was pulled in the name of NBD Television. More »

OCZ Trifecta: Swiss Army Knife of Storage/Sausage

The OCZ Trifecta combines SD, MicroSD, and USB into one super device that may not be a creation of Earth. I's kinda like if one were to combine bacon grease, butter and lard in one package; it's pretty sure to get the job done, whatever it may be. More »

Vin Au Verre: Kegerator for Wine

Generally one steers clear of establishments with "wine on tap", but from the comfort of one's pretentious Manhattan loft we understand that such phrases may actually be encouraged. More »

Pelican Flashlight: Scarier Than a Gun

See that badass guy above holding the gun? Well that's no gun—that's a flashlight. Ok, it's really a gun. But the new Pelican 7060 is still hardcore enough to fool you for a moment, and that's all that matters. More »

Terratec Headset Master: Surround Sound Gaming

The Terratec Headset Master is an interesting, $78 solution to surround sound gaming that not only ignores the need for speakers, but for that completely inexpensive-to-buy-awesome-quality soundcard that you've been cheaply admiring from afar. More »

Hood Toaster: MRI Your Bread

The Mool Hood Toaster is undoubtedly more likely to get you laid than the standard 2-hole variety, but with this concept modeled without any objects for scale, a once brave little toaster comes across more like a Massive Human Baker of Doom. More »

B. Duck Bath Radio: Singing Songs from the Heart

Last week we received a letter. It was from a boy named Sam, who once had a $30 rubber ducky bath radio. He'd take baths with this duck every weekend, auto-scanning to find Casey's Top 40 while his fingers pruned up. It was the greatest time of his life, Sam told us. More »

Hands-On: Lifepop Mini '80s Boombox


This little vinyl boombox gets pretty loud considering the 9v powerpack and the quarter-sized speakers. Another gem found in the WTF section of CTIA. The kit comes with a minijack adapter, a keychain, and the pouch itself can hold a cellphone or Shuffle, but controlling the device while inside would prove to be challenging. $25. More »

Norwegian Cruise Line Stockpiling its Ships with Nintendo Wiis

Forget the midnight buffet, the next time you're on a Norwegian Cruise head to the atrium and burn off those shrimp cocktails with a little Wii tournament. The folks at Norwegian Cruise Lines are loading up their ships with Wii consoles so that vacationers will be able to play against one another on big-screen TVs. Games will include Wii Sports, Excite Truck, and WarioWare. I'd take this over karaoke any day. More »

Memphis MP3 Player BBQ Grill

This may not make your steak taste any better, but it provides a more enjoyable time while grilling. This vintage-looking grill has an audio input in the backside and a couple of speakers in the front. Plug in your MP3 player and begin rocking out while grilling. This grill is a bit expensive ($450), but it could be the perfect accessory for all of those upcoming outdoor events that are usually accompanied by a grill. More »

Altec Lansing im600: A Thin Dock/FM Radio for Your iPod

Looks-wise, Altec Lansing's im600 iPod dock is a huge improvement over the company's last speakers. And even though it's a lightweight, it manages to squeeze in an extra feature here and there. Available in April, the $149 dock doubles as an alarm clock, portable boombox, and unlike other docks can play FM radio (for those of you that still listen to FM). The last thin speaker dock I saw disappointed me once I heard it, so I'm hoping this won't have a similar fate. More »

iPodWeek - The Best of iLounge

This time last week, we were busy doing comprehensive tests on that controversial new $299 Apple thing—you know, Apple TV—to see what it was and wasn't capable of doing. The result: our mammoth Apple TV review, which takes you through the unit's video, audio, and photo performance (and problems), including details you haven't seen anywhere else. We've also built an All Things Apple TV resource page full of additional information, links to discussion forums, and accessory details such as reviews of XtremeMac's line of XtremeHD cables for Apple TV. Reasonably priced, well-built HDMI and optical/TOSLINK cables are only two of the company's five nicely designed options. More »
