You can never rewind to that less-smelly, less-desperate time before you bought this stuff.

Influenced, in the most irritating way, by "mobile multimedia gadgets, those quintessential objects of modernity and style that have become both everyday objects and icons of our era," this cologne features a touch-based play button that presumably sprays whatever club-scented girl-repellent lies within the bottle. It's a pretty silly idea and actually features poor design: No 3.5mm headphone jack? Did JT learn nothing from the T-Mobile G1? But if you want to smell like an international pop star, or at least like an international pop star's publicist, it's available in Europe right now. [Givenchy via Boing Boing Gadgets]

<![CDATA[Sony Europe Releases PlayTV PVR for PlayStation 3 [Sony]]]> ps3dvr.jpgJust as we reported before, Sony's just announced a personal video recorder (PVR) add-on system for the PlayStation 3 in European/PAL territories. Starting early 2008, the dual HDTV DVB-T tuner setup and the PVR will be available in the UK, France, Italy, Germany and Spain, and you will have the ability to store shows on your PS3, watch them via Remote Play on your PSP, and auto-choose between HD and SD depending on your hookup. No US launch is planned as of yet, but we'll update if there's more info. [SCEE - Image via Joystiq]
