Nyko Gameface 360

Microsoft’s creative bug must be running out of juice because their options for customized faceplates for the 360 are mediocre at best. Camo and tribal blue? Give me a break. Nyko is releasing the Gameface 360 to allow you talented, or even non-talents artists to design your own faceplate for the 360. The kit includes…

Laser Pointer + Thermometer Mouse

We can see how you might want a laser pointer in the mouse you use with your laptop (less peripherals to lose between meetings), and vaguely understand why you might want a long retractable USB cord (too cheap to spring for Bluetooth), but a built-in thermometer? What? We can’t stand behind that. USB Mouse with…

Artsy Lamp Enjoys 2nd Hand Smoke

This smoker’s lamp is the work of Helen Evans and Heiko Hansen and it currently on display in a Paris art gallery. In some clever work a smoke alarm has been reverse engineered to display colors and sound upon the presence of nicotine-filled smoke. This is an excellent excuse to take up smoking again, right?…

Suunto T6 Reviewed (Verdict: Super)

Suunto makes a good, beefy watch. The T6, for example, has everything a potential exerciser could need—pedometer and bike speedometer—which requires a little pod for your shoes and bike, heartrate monitor, and PC syncing system for downloading your workout stats. The watch costs about $300 and the additional lumpkins, including the foot pod and the…

4-LED Maglites Coming In May

Reader Brian sent an email to Maglite inquiring about their 4-LED series that was promised “in 2006.” The result was an actual email sent by a human being rather than the canned ejaculate of a mailbot. Let’s listen in: Here is the schedule we plan to use to deliver our Mag-LED lights: 2, 3 &…

Counterfeit iPod Shuffles and Nanos

File these under the heading “Ummm… Duh?” iPodGear has some shots of real and counterfeit iPod shuffles and Nanos. While they wouldn’t fool anyone who has actually seen a Nano or Shuffle in their lives, it seems that someone has put a load of effort into making sure they are ripping of the ignorant with…

TankChair

Can I get a “Yeah?” Look at this thing—it’s a wheelchair tank designed for all-terrain use. We think the story says it all: My wife, five kids and I were in a cabin in the woods. To our surprise a herd of elk came walking through our camp. My kids, having never seen an elk…

Original iPod Introduction on YouTube

With iPods of all types running rampant across the globe we need to look back at the original iPod and its introduction way back in the day.

Samsung SPH-V8900, Another Slim Handset

The Samsung SPH-V8900 is another slimline handset, this one a slider that’s just 13.8mm thick. Weighing just under 3 ounces, it’s packed with a 1.3 megapixel shooter and Bluetooth compatibility. We especially like the selection of models and pose for this attractive new cellphone. At first, we didn’t notice there were phones in the foreground.…

Steve’s NYC Cube Saga Continues

As we gaze upon the budding Apple Store construction project known as Steve’s NYC Cube in midtown Manhattan, we’re wondering, what’s all the commotion? The five-story homage to Steve Jobs’s cube jones was obviously designed by the Apple CEO, who is apparently micromanaging the project. Word has it that titanium pieces that hold the Windows…

Gateway E-100M Has Unannounced Intel Core Solo Inside

Gateway is now shipping the E-100M ultralight laptop, but oops, it’s got an Intel Core Solo U1300 processor inside that Intel hasn’t even officially announced yet.

Kodak’s Gold Preservation CD-Rs and DVD-Rs

Consumers needing digital archival media that really last, and we mean really last, will no doubt be thankful for Kodak’s new 24-karat gold discs. Although regular discs have a rated life-span of anywhere between 20 and 250 years, most of our backups from 1999 have already degraded to the point of unreadability. These new CD-Rs…
