The NY Times Drops a Steamer on the PS3

The New York Times has had a week to spend some time with the PS3, and boy howdy they sure don’t like it. While they say it “certainly delivers gorgeous graphics,” it doesn’t look any better than the Xbox 360. And that’s the nicest thing they say about it. Their laundry list of complaints include…

Smart Finder Gadget Locator Finds Lost Stuff: Welcome To Senility

People lose stuff and the time then spent umpteen hours searching for their misplaced treasures. To prevent this from happening in the future, might you consider investing in the Smart Finder? It consists of a small remote control-like device and little color-coded receivers. Basically, you lose your junk, hit the button on the remote and…

BenQ FP-Series LCDs Hit the 5ms Mark

As far as multimedia goes, BenQ’s new FP-Series LCDs aren’t as well-equipped as NEC’s LCD2690WUXi (especially since the latter has HDCP built-in while the former don’t). But the $499 FP222W can still hold its own weight, especially since its the company’s first 20+ inch screen to hit the 5ms response time mark. Joining the FP222W…

Creative X-Fi Z600 Dock

Stop the presses. This is a damn sexy dock … and it is not for the iPod. Yes, I am as shocked as you are. This is the Z600 dock from Creative. It is the first dock powered by the Creative X-Fi audio processor. X-Fi makes your crappy Limewire’d MP3s sound awesome by upconverting the…

CrazyPC Hovering Mouse … Hovers, Likely is Carcinogenic

It’s a fake. Still neat, though. This is supposedly the first 100 percent frictionless mouse. Why no friction? Because it hovers approximately one centimeter above the mousepad. It does so with the help of “patent-pending electromagnetic hovering technology.” Maybe it is just me, but having electromagnetic waves pulsating throughout your hand all day can’t be…

Poop Soap

Fun for both kids and the demented, this soap may be shaped like poo, but unlike real poo, it cleans your hands instead of dirtying them. It took me eight years of my life to learn this concept. And it wasn’t even the first eight years! “Nope It’s Soap” is coffee scented and can even…

Faulty Wiimote Straps Exploding TVs Nationwide

Okay, not really exploding, but breaking nonetheless. Take one white trash hipster doofus, one copy of WiiSports, a Wiimote and a sweaty hand that can’t hold onto the Wiimote and you have yourself one broken TV. At least it is an excuse for him to upgrade that old and busted “big screen TV.” Wiimote vs…

The Ladies of eBay Spice up Console Auctions

If you were thinking of auctioning off your just-purchased PlayStation 3 or Wii consoles, you’d better think of a way to spruce up your auction pictures. Why? Because you’re competing with these ladies. Then again, seeing as the prices for PS3 auctions on eBay have “nosedived” since the console was actually release—they’re still going for…

It’s been a long, cold month for all your gadget lovers. If you weren’t out in the rain waiting for your PS3, chances are you spent the weekend braving the cold just to snatch a Wii. Now that you’re back indoors, what better way to pamper yourself than with Thanko’s USB warmers. First up is…

Eten Glofiish M700 Smartphone: Purty and Phat

Take a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and add GPS and WiFi, and you have the way-cool Eten glofiish M700 smartphone, the next high-end quad-band GSM/EDGE trinket from the Taiwanese phonemeisters. Satisfy that entertainment jones with its FM radio and take pictures of it all with a 2-megapixel camera, and then store all that on a microSD…

BestBuy has one bitchin’ deal on a Pioneer 7.1 channel home theatre receiver. The receiver normally retails for $199, add in $11 of instant savings (!!) and a $100 mail-in-rebate brings this baby down to $88 after all is said and done. It is also available for in-store pickup to avoid any nasty shipping costs…

Optimus-103 Keyboard Update: Pre-Order Date, Price Teaser

Over the weekend when we were drinking away the week-that-was, the Art.Lebedev guys announced December 12 as the official pre-order date for the Optimus-103 keyboard. With a pre-order date this soon, it seems they may beat the originally speculated Spring 2007 release date. Also, in an interview with Slashdot, the crazy Art.Lebedev guys said that…

trioBike Does a Three-Way

Here’s a versatile conveyance called the trioBike that can function as either a bicycle alone, a stroller, or a combination of the two. You can drop your kids off at day care, leave the stroller there and ride your bicycle away. We were completely sold on this idea until we discovered that the complete system…

Death Looms Over Razer, Microsoft Viral Marketing

The last viral marketing campaign from Microsoft and Razer was anticlimactic, so we expect this one to be, also. The old viral marketing site, notfornoobs.com, now redirects to deathloomsnear.com. At least we have an official date for whatever this. December 1 will be the date that Microsoft and Razer should be dropping some gargantuan product…

IXOS Disco Cube iPod Dock: Seizuretastic!

What a better way to relive an era full of drugs, alcohol and sex (well, I guess that is every era) with a cutesy flashing-lights iPod dock? You may have moved on from the that era’s music, but this iPod dock will give even the un-disco-y of your music that disco feel you’ve always wanted.…

No-Contact Jacket: Clothing as Weapon

Now the lovely ladies can fend off those miscreants, or even their favorite misogynistic Gizmodo editor with the No-Contact Jacket, part of a line of clothing-as-weapons for women. A mere 9-volt battery keeps those creeps at bay with 80,000 volts of Taser-like electricity. Hit the switch and teach that Neanderthal to keep his hands off…

That floppy eared desktop bunny, Nabaztag, is trying to be dethroned by another completely pointless desktop-widget device. Enter the Netoy.

He can display music track information, read news, weather, e-books arms and being an overall general nuisance all while flailing its arms. Netoy WiFI robot…

Wrist PDA Gives You the Magic Touch

I’ve never been a big fan of wearable tech and the mere thought of strapping a PDA this big onto my wrist ain’t helping, but fortunately this PDA comes with a twist. It creates a body area network (BAN) that lets you communicate with other peripherals by touching them. So for example, you could print…
