Baby Bath Thermometer and Wireless Monitor

This baby gadget consists of two pieces, a thermometer and a baby monitor. The former goes into the bath-water and alerts you if the temperature goes below 68 or above 104 degrees Fahrenheit, and the later wirelessly broadcasts the baby’s goo’s and gaa’s to your receiver. The receiver is battery powered, and the baby monitor…

No keypads, no buttons, just a big ass touchscreen. From the initial pictures it looks like the interface changes on the fly. I’m digging the black…

HP iPAQ rx5900 Travel Companion Reviewed (Verdict: Best Hybrid Yet)

HP pals up with Tom Tom, and the result is the iPAQ rx5900 Travel Companion ($599), bringing together well-designed hardware with a friendly user interface.

Star Trek 40th Anniversary Phaser

This is much cooler than the one we built for ourselves when we were kids out of a pack of chewing gum, a rotary phone, our dad’s tie, and an Atari 2600.
