Warmrails Kensington Towel Warmer

I saw this in my Amazon Gold Box and I thought it was sort of brilliant, even if the ratings for it are sort of craptastic. The $125 Warmrails Kensington Towel Warmer and Drying Rack plugs into a standard outlet and heats towel for maximum winter pleasure. The fact that it’s basically half off the…

Plug and Play: Home Recording Studio

“Plug and Play” picks five things that—together—provide a complete all-in-one package. All you have to do is order it, set it up, and go. We already made the hard choices. Not everyone has the desire to create a pro-quality recording studio at home, but those of us who do know how challenging it can be…

PodCasting Without an iPod

So PodCasting—the ability to time-shift internet radio and the like and listen to it on your iPod whenever—is pretty cool, I guess, but its name is a little confusing, implying that it only works with iPods (probably because the first popular variant uses a program called ‘iPodder’). Thing is, you can use iPodder along with…

Retro Sneaks: Reebok to Reissue Classic Pump Bringbacks

I don’t normally go for expensive, nostalgic sneaker reissues, but I’m considering dropping the $125 on these Reebok Classic Pump Bringbacks. I fully admit that it’s mostly because I didn’t get a pair like I wanted the first time around—every time I asked for Jordans or Pumps Mom brought home, like, Pro-Wings or something. If…

Hello Kitty AirStream RV

Okay, I need your help. Sanrio is auctioning an AirStream RV bedecked with as much Hello Kitty finery as you could possibly imagine, including a pink faux-fur bed, couches, and all sorts of electronics like a TV and DVD player. Now they want $150,000 for it, so I figure if you all chip in we…

AT&T To Get Siemens SX66

Mobile Gadget News confirms that AT&T Wireless will be getting the Siemens SX66 (AKA the HTC Blue Angel/MDA III/XDA IIs), a very nice Pocket PC Phone Edition quad-band handset with built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and slider keyboard. It’s a little too big for my personal tastes, but there’s no denying it’s a little powerhouse, so it’s…

Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook

Creative has announced an interesting PCMCIA card option for laptop users who want to bump their audio up a notch. The Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook adds 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound via an SPDIF optical output, as well as 24-bit/192kHz support for high-end audio. For some reason, though, it can’t use the SPDIF…

For the first time since I went on that church ski trip and stole a bunch of wine from the hotel restaurant and huddled in a freezing bus getting hammered, I have a reason to go to Minneapolis.

BenQ P50 (Hottt!)

Is it just me or is this BenQ P50 really, really hot? It’s got the integrated thumboard that is sort of the phone equivalent of fishnet stockings for me, as well as what appears to be a pretty high resolution screen (240 by 320, actually) and a small form factor. I think GodMode’s take on…

Pay to Beta Test World’s Smallest Bluetooth Headset

HowardForums denizen Mark “BengalBoy” Morrow is getting together a group of people to participate in a “beta test” of a new tiny Bluetooth BlueSpoon headset from NextLink, albeit one where you have to buy beta hardware with no guarantee it will totally work. We’ll be waiting until they hit actually production—hopefully they’ll fit those ugly…

Just sync it up and (Avant)Go enjoy your…

New AT&T Wireless Motorola Phones: V505, V220, V180

AT&T Wireless is now offering Motorola’s V505 [pictured], V220, and V180 quad-band GSM phones. All include the usual cast of creature features: MP3, speakerphone, MMS, laser shuriken, etc. The V505 alone offers Bluetooth; all but the V180 do video playback. Indeed, the V505 looks a lot like a GSM version of the V710 with less…

LG KP8400 Blood Sugar Testing Phone

Good news for Korean diabetics (although they probably already know all about it—this has apparently been in the Asian press for a while), the LG KP8400 is a phone, a crappy camera, and a blood sugar testing device. LG got together with healthcare manufacturer Healthpia for this otherwise unremarkable phone, and it sure does bring…

Motorcycle Airbag

Halo Labs is developing an airbag system for motorcyclists that fits inside a jacket and was kind enough to put three hypnotic, cringe-inducing, yet hilarious videos of their product tests online. I especially like the end of video one, where the cartoon man is launched over a car, tumbling and spinning, only to land in…

Toshiba’s 0.85-Inch Hard Drive in an SD Card

That promises two potential options: a hard drive in SD form-factor, as PDALive proposes or an SDIO version of the hard drive where…
