Gadget Deals Of The Day
There are some pretty tempting deals today, such as the Panasonic plasma with a Lumix camera that I was eyeballing. For those looking for laptops, we've got a nice variety today. The rest of you hobos, KY lube and coffee!

Amidst all the business turmoil, tepidly-received new products and high-concept gaming news, it's easy to forget that, man, Sony can still do hardware design. Exhibit A: The NAS-Z200iO media player dock, CD player, radio and network streaming device.
Reading up on this totally fresh neoHD receiver tells me that Yamaha—unlike its competition—is trying hard to keep up with the rapidly changing home theater situation, particularly where HD video is concerned.
From September, all new Sony Pictures Blu-ray discs will support MovieIQ, a service which grabs IMDB-esque data from the Internet to show during playback. How BD-Live hadn't already been used to do something like this, I have no idea.
If you still don't know what you're getting Dad for Father's Day, HybridSpace Furniture has come up with an all-in-one home entertainment "Man Wall," which includes gadgets that are stereotypically man.
At Gizmodo, we don't ask our interns to get us coffee—we make them find us free toilet paper, and a bunch of other awesome deals, including a 2TB external hard drive for $200. Thanks Don and Johnny!
I like to assemble audio and video components, so I don't get these all-in-one systems, specially when they try to do it all, like this Akai AISS010. There's nothing left out of this unit:
The Loop really impressed us back at CES...2007. A circular remote that functioned a lot like the Wiimote, the promising Loop turned heads before disappearing into the bowels of the tech world. (Until now.)
As far as AM/FM/CD/iPod/AUX combinations go, this artfully-misspelled Sonora Eklipse is pretty good-looking, with its 7.5-watt output, shiny black finish and glowy lights. But is it really worth its whopping $550 pricetag?
It's finally Friday, so treat yourself to a surround sound system for $60, a 42'' HDTV for $650, cheap video games and movies, and free donuts, tobacco, magazine subscriptions and seven-function binoculars. Happy National Donut Day!
