Timbuk2's Dolores Cooler Bag Makes For the Best Bike Messenger Gig
Carrying a cooler full of Pabst into a job interview may seem like bad form, but hauling a twelve-pack in a Dolores Cooler shaped like a messenger bag is just the thing to show off your go-getting attitude. More »

Cool-er eBook Reader Review
The Gadget: The Cool-er, a lower (compared to the Kindle) priced eBook reader that lacks built-in wireless functionality and a hardware keyboard, but adds music, an SD card slot and PDF/MP3 support. But of course, the lower price is the big draw. More »

Bullet-Shaped Bollinger Champagne Cooler, For 007's Giant Gun
A giant gun that fires bullets containing chilled bottles of Bollinger...sounds like a psychedelic James Bond-theme dream. But at least the bullet bit is nearly a reality. Bollinger has come up with this 007-themed champagne bottle cooler in time for Quantum of Solace that actually is bullet-shaped, though there's no giant Walther PPK to fire it. It's fabulously silly, and presumably fabulously priced since it's a strictly limited edition run of just 207. Maybe Bond should worry about it though: you know, the saying goes "somewhere out there there's a bullet with your name on it"... [Sybarites via Luxurylaunches] -

BoomCooler: A Portable Party in an Ice Box
Throw in a cooler, some speakers and mix with a little hillbilly inspiration and you have yourself a BoomCooler. Billed as "the ultimate portable entertainment system," the BoomCooler makes it easy to roll your tunes from one party to the next thanks to some fancy wheels and a handle. It also cranks out a decent amount of sound with two Sony Xplod 6” x 9” 240-watt max 4-way speakers, a 1100-watt max 10” subwoofer and a 4-channel 600-watt amp. It is also iPod, Sirius radio, MP3, CD and AM/FM radio ready. But, the question is, can it hold your beer? Unfortunately, no. The BoomCooler's storage space is limited to dry goods only. Pfft...if my $900 doesn't involve getting drunk it is not worth spending. [BoomCooler via Uncrate] -

Photochopped R2-D2 USB Beverage Cooler Can Be Yours, Actual Product or Not
Add this one to the "ouch, ouch, ouch" Photoshop bin. Yeah, I can use the pen tool to smoothly decapitate R2 and throw a Coke can top and USB cord in too. What I can't do, though, is build an actual USB beverage can cooler out of a shrunken R2-D2 model. Which I would want. It's up for pre-order at Play.com for $36—whether you get a layered .PSD or an actual cooler, though, remains to be seen. [Product Page via Nerd Approved]

Lightning Review: Moshi Zefyr MacBook Notebook Cooler
The Gadget: The Moshi Zefyr, which is a collapsible USB-powered notebook cooler for the MacBook and MacBook Air (MacBook Pro version coming soon). The USB slot is pass-through, which lets you plug in another USB device so as to break even, and the whole thing can collapse into itself for easy transport.

Cruzin' Cooler Operator Gets Charged With DWI
We first wrote about the Cruzin Cooler, literally a motorized cooler scooter, here on Giz way back in 2006. Frankly, we're kind of baffled today that it took more than two years for the thing to log its first DWI arrest. First of all, yes, the Cruzin Cooler counts as a vehicle, and that is why Whitehall, NY resident Leslie J. "Bomber" Marr, 57, faces felony DWI and aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle charges, for swerving and driving on the sidewalk. The cooler contained 14 beers, but Washington County DA Kevin Kortright wasn't impressed. "They tell us he's been riding around town on that cooler for years," Kortright said, completely serious. "You can't cruise around on your cooler if you're intoxicated." Indeed. [PostStar]

Veuve Globalight Cools Your Champagne, Gives Romantic Glow Too
Designer Karim Rashid has turned out this multifunction champagne cooler just in time for the upcoming Milan Design Fair, and we have to admit it's rather beautiful. Produced in collaboration with Veuve Clicquot, the Globalight is supposed to keep your champers chilled for two hours and also sheds a halo of pink light: sitting on stepping stones in the middle of a lake is optional. Why that pink light, though? Might have a romantic impact on a special evening, perhaps. It'll certainly have an impact on your wallet: it's a 500-piece limited edition and costs $4,000.

Keep Your Lunch Fresh With the Power of NASA Technology
According to the product page, the Franklin Digital Cooler uses "a tiny NASA microchip" that allows the device to go from "hot to freezing cold in a matter of minutes." So, theoretically, you can keep you hot dishes hot and your cold dishes cold when traveling. There is even an LED thermometer and thermostat that allows the user to set the exact temperature, and a car adapter kit to keep things fresh—even on long drives. Let's just hope that NASA builds their cooler microchip better than they build their shuttles. The last thing I need is a piece of foam or something breaking off and smacking me in the face while I'm driving. Available for $49.95. [Product Page via TRFJ]

Embarco's External Chilled Air Docking Station Brings Refrigeration to Your Laptop
Rather than just blowing room temperature air at your laptop like other coolers, this External Chilled Air Docking Station from Embarco and Intel has a miniature compressor that actually blows cold air at your laptop. It's claimed as the world's smallest miniature compressor—similar to the effect that your fridge uses to keep your leftover Arby's cold &mdash and shoots out 13.6C air when the ambient temperature hits 23.1C. That's a 41% reduction in temperature, which means instead of worrying about superheated gonads, you're going to now have to worry about frozen ones. The price isn't set, but should be around $150ish. [Legit Reviews] More » -

Thermo MP3 Cooler Plays Tunes, Keeps Drinks Cold
Going on a trip? Forget those standard plastic coolers. This Thermo MP3 cooler can keep 16 cans at 40 degrees F, but that's not the best part. The best part is the two speakers on the front that can take in any MP3 player and pump out your tunes while you're out camping. All this by just plugging the Thermo into your car's cigarette adapter. Makes us all but forget the time we had to pee into a cooler because our dad wouldn't stop to let us go. [Skymall via Crave]

Cooler Scoop Prevents Ice Hands
You know how you get the Han Solo shivers after you shove your arm into a cooler to find the last beer in a sea of Diet Pepsis? What you need is the cooler scoop, a scoop that proxys for your arm in order to dig out a drink without freezing to death. The only problems we could potentially have with this are the relatively short handle and the fact that the scoop only holds one, which means multiple trips are necessary—unlike the fishing net strategy we were picturing.

Chilled in 60 Seconds
This toaster-sized gadget is really fast—it takes just 60 seconds to chill cans of beer and soda, while a bottle of wine will take about six minutes. This super cooler works by spraying a jet of cold water over the can or bottle, so be ready to reload it with ice and water if you have more than a six pack to cool. It sells for $ 80 and for $ 10 more you get the Tailgate model which connects to your car's lighter. More » -

Soccer Ball Beer Cooler
As an avid soccer — sorry, folks, this is America where real football was stripped of its title long ago — it is my duty to fully celebrate and embrace the World Cup. What other way to celebrate than to drink beer? This beer cooler has enough room for six brewskies and is powered with a little bit of AC. It also includes a car adapter for beer cooling on-the-go, which we don't condone at all. Being a soccer hooligan is no excuse for driving under the influence.
