Get Your Floors Clean and Cute With Hello Kitty Roomba
For homemakers who always wanted a Roomba but thought it too uncute, iRobot and Sanrio have partnered up to create a Hello Kitty-branded version of their robotic vacuum cleaner. So now not only does everybody's favorite expressionless cat protect your computer, play your music and blast away your enemies, she'll also clean your floor. Who's a good kitty? Only 500 units are made, and each will cost roughly $810. Figures—it's only available in Japan. [iRobot Japan via Dvice]

LOS ANGELES, California (Agencies) — Hello Kitty, actress, astrophysicist and acclaimed author of the play I Can Has Pink Cheezburger, has been found dead in her Los Angeles apartment on Tuesday, probably because of an accident with a home appliance and drug overdose. LAPD, however, is not ruling out other possibilities: More » -

Hello Kitty Expands Upon Arsenal With AR-15 Rifle
With previous releases, such as an AK-47 under it's belt, Hello Kitty looks poised to roll out a full army. This time around, some gun-loving nut put together a Hello Kitty-themed AR-15 assault rifle for his wife (how romantic) and posted the finished result on the interwebs for the world to see. It's so cute, it makes me want to shoot something. [Rifle Gear via Mobilewhack] -

Swarovski-embedded Hello Kitty Laptop Makes Us Wince, Groan, then Vomit in Anger
As if adorning an otherwise fine laptop in Swarovski crystals or Hello Kitty logos wasn't bad enough, NEC has made a laptop with both Swarovski and Hello Kitty, making this the worst laptop we've ever seen. Seriously, we're not even going to bother showing you the specs, because if anybody purchases this thing from Japan, we're going to have to revoke their Gizmodo license. We're sorry, but it has to be done. [Far East Gizmos] -

Hello Kitty Toilet Paper Dispenser Advances Buttocks Tech
Other than the iPod dock toilet paper speaker we thoroughly tested, there hasn't been any real advancement in the area of ass wiping technology in the past few years. This Hello Kitty dispenser changes everything with its automated dispensing unit that lets you program exactly how many sheets you want for your next wipe—which may sound useful, but doesn't quite account for when you've got hard, rocky poops followed by soft, liquidy ones. But when you slap a Hello Kitty logo and an automated turning mechanism onto something, you're pretty much pounding on the Nobel Prize committee's collective door and asking for the cash.

Casio Exilim 720, Possessed by Hello Kitty
Some Casio Exilim 720's have gotten dressed up by their cruel, older sisters in wuss gear. Rebranded the Hello Kitty Camera, the device still takes 7.2MP pictures, but it's been covered in pink and stickers and evilness. AND during startup, the camera makes weird, gross Hello Kitty noises and shows weird, gross Hello Kitty pictures. For those into weirdness, the Japan exclusive will run you $400. Go pick one up while your friends plan the intervention/your long-term disappearance. More » -

Hello Kitty Bluetooth Headphones So Cute They'll Make You Vomit
The world will end with neither a bang nor a whimper, it will end with a pair of Hello Kitty Bluetooth wireless headphones. Sanrio's Hello Kitty earphones, specifically advertised to enhance your music and video gaming experience, will set you back $135 (15,750 Yen). I definitely wouldn't mind a pair of wireless headphones — I do, however, mind the overly cute kitty on the front. Still, the gadget makes a pretty good, if expensive, gift for the overly effeminate girlfriend. [KittyHell] -

Fleshbot Tests the Hello Kitty Vibrator (Verdict: Great For Hello Clitty, Not So Good For Hello Cooty)
We normally watch Fleshbot's Marital Aid Test Kitchen from afar with wonder and disgust, but seeing as they're testing the Hello Kitty Vibrator, we just had to pass their notes along to our readers. After importing a red one in from Japan, Fleshbot found that the HK keychain vibe performed admirably externally, but was too awkwardly shaped to be inserted internally. They reserve their recommendation, in the end, because Kitty's "pleading eyes staring up at you as you pleasure yourself with her" was too much for them to bear. Or bare. [Fleshbot NSFW] -

They're loaded up with a Celeron M 1.73GHz chip, 1GB of memory, an 80GB hard drive and Windows Vista, and all they'll cost you is $1,640 and a few pounds of dignity. [Hello Kitty Hell via Crave] -

Hello Kitty Privacy Sticker Hides Your Phone's Texts, Emails
Privacy screens make sense for laptops and PCs, devices with large screens that are used for extensive periods of time in open areas. The Sanrio "Hello Kitty Mail Peeping Block and Display Protect Sticker," or HKMPBDPS as I like to call it, makes less sense. Sure, it prevents people from reading your precious texts by peering over your shoulder, but is that really something you worry about? Maybe the website says it best: "4.

Japan's Hello Kitty Cat Humiliation System
Oh… oh my. Japan, a country that never fails to blow my mind, has just seen the release of, according to Google's hilariously inept machine translation, the "Hello Kitty transformation set." It's basically a hat, bib, collar and carrying bag to turn your cat into the saddest, most ridiculous-looking cat on the block. Below, you'll find a gallery of cats with no dignity. After the jump, you'll find examples of perhaps the greatest machine translation I have ever seen, and I'm not exaggerating. You're gonna want to see this. Thanks again for the comedy gold, Japan!

Hello Kitty Case Loves to Cozy Your iPod Nano
Target, of all places, is selling these really Kawaii-tastic Hello Kitty iPod cases. They're listed as "mini", which might lead some to believe that they're selling cases for the old iPod Mini. Doubtful. They sizes listed are 4 by 2.5-inches, which means that the big one fits a regular iPod Video. What we're confused about is that the little ones are spec'd at the same size. Also doubtful. But at $15 bucks a pop, get all three, and use them to carry anything. (And make em instantly cuter.) More » -
