New Wave of Logitech Headphones

Logitech is jumping on the MP3 bandwagon by releasing three new models of headphones for cool kids. The Curve and Identity models are similar to standard behind-the-head headphones but use more heavy duty materials to withstand the X-treem personalities of digital music listeners. The new wireless headphones use frequency-hopping Bluetooth 1.2. The wireless model is…

Nokia’s SU-8W Bluetooth Keyboard Reviewed (Verdict: Wireless)

I’ve always dreamt of being able to type onto my PDA or phone. I even got that collapsible keyboard for the Palm V, which was a big pain in the butt, and generally gave up on the dream years ago. However, keyboard technologies have improved immensely over time and this new Bluetooth keyboard from Nokia…

The SmartFabric has the ability to store and release heat with the help of good ole Thermocules. Prices begin at $399. Thanks NASA, you were not only able to fake a moon landing but ensure…

No Chip Modular Synthesizer

The site copy for this massive mixing boardmodular synthesizer [Thanks, Kaden] is adamant about its refusal to allow those highfalutin integrated circuits even near their assembly line. Using military grade pots, resistors, and whatever else is important in a modulator, this thing is so analog it doesn’t even use an on/off switch. Best part? This…

Gizmondo “Streamlines” UK Staff

Our kissing cousin over at Kotaku found some news and we love him for it. Basically, Gizmondo has closed its UK office and is moving everything over the US where, presumably, those folks will also be fired in the next month or so. Just got some interesting news from a source, Gizmondo has just given…

YUKYUNG Villiv P1 PMP

This is so nice looking. It’s so clean. 4-inch widescreen TFT, 30 GB HD, USB 2.0, Dolby 5.1 Audio, a pirated version of Episode III that comes in the box and so much more. God I love it. I want it. They even have an FM transmitter and a CF slot, which just makes it…

Netflix Downloads (?)

This came out a little while ago, but the rumor is gaining credibility so we’ll discuss it here. Netflix apparently accidently leaked some sort of Netflix Downloads service and is currently hiring: Netflix is hiring: Director, Product Management The Role: The Electronic Delivery Service (EDS) will augment Netflix’s current DVD delivery model with high quality…

PDA Comments

I solicited comments on PDAs a few posts back and I’m getting some responses. http://www.gizmodo.com/gadgets/pdas/pocket-pc/index.php#krome-spy-minipda-112172 Kane writes: NO. PDAs blow donkeys. If someone made one that didn’t break every time I fell on my arse after 10 pints, I’d have one. It would need a screen that was immune to sharp, pointy things too. Sam…

Power Patrol Rings

Reader passport77 sent us this release re: Power Rings featuring a bemused Stan Lee wearing a big pinkie Ring. These rings interact with a website, in some way, allowing you to “wirelessly receive and activate ‘secret missions’ from Stan Lee himself”—”Hey, true-believer, go wash my car!” The rings can also communicate with each other using…

Verizon Pulls the Motorola E815

We were all excited about Verizon’s EV-DO phone and then they go and pull all mention of it. It’s like it went into the Phone Protection Program, on the run from the mob. The E815 was supposed to be the cream of Verizon’s EV-DO line-up. It included Bluetooth and 1xEV-DO. No word on why, where,…

Krome Spy Mini-PDA

Quick poll: How many of you all still carry a PDA? Why or why not? I’ll post the results as I get them. I’m curious to see if PDAs are still compelling at all. Consider, for example, the Krome Spy Mini PDA. It’s a pretty cute little bugger, all the nice specs, a little 1.3…

TransPod for iPod Shuffle

The TransPod, designed specifically for the deliciously screen-less iPod Shuffle, is another-in-car-dongle (AICD) that bucks the trend—look at it… it’s black! That’s right. This FM transmitter with front frequency read-out—no MP3 information for you!—is blacker than black. You ask yourself “How much more black could this be? and the answer is: None, none… more black.…

Radtech Portectorz

Kind of hard to figure out where these go. They’re kind of like little port condoms for your laptop so you don’t get bag munge into your USB plugs. Designed to fit Powerbooks, these non-sticky plastic thingies cost up to $20 and match your port line up perfectly. An interesting, if obsessively clean, idea. Radtech…

.mobi Domain In Works

T3 is reporting that the .mobi domain will be available next year as a dedicated domain for mobile sites. While this is all well and good, couldn’t they have made it .mo? .mb? Most phone browsers will still be using keypads to type in their domains. Now, instead of hitting the keypad 7 times—com— they…
