Vuum Audio VTi-B1 iPod Dock: Vacuum Tubes, ahoy!

Don’t let our non-stop PS3 and Wii coverage fool you—we’re still slaves to that little digital audio player that Apple makes. We know that you all like (or hate) the iPod and have an odd affinity for vacuum tubes, so talking about the Vuum VTi-B1 is quite easy. The vacuum tube amp pumps out sound…

Flying Alarm Clock Annoys You Awake

Good news for the perpetually late-to-work. This flying alarm clock—which is similar to the Bowfly alarm clock—launches a flying mosquito-like propeller into the air. The floater makes an incredibly annoying noise, forcing you to get up, find the thing, and put it back onto the base. https://gizmodo.com/move-over-mit-the-blowfly-alarm-clock-is-here-141731 Sure, it won’t guarantee that you won’t go…

Samsung Looking to Outsmart Q with a Little BlackJack

We knew it was coming, but today Samsung officially lifted the veil off its new BlackJack smartphone. The Windows Mobile-based phone will have everything you’d expect from a smartphone (QWERTY keypad, 320×240 screen, 1.3-megapixal camera) and at 3.5 ounces, it’ll also weight less than the 4.1-ounce Q. Samsung claims the BlackJack’s battery will last for…

Glowing LED Balls Protect Your Zen

These glowing balls are useful in a couple different ways. First and foremost, they can supposedly provide a zen atmosphere and act as a calming device. Secondly, and debatably more important, they allow me to make all of the “ball” puns that I could handle. The AIL-B120 and AIL-B130 will glow different colors depending on…

ASUS P5N32-E Motherboard: Gaming Hydra

ASUS knows, like you do, that you can never have too many graphics cards. In a day and age where double- and quadruple-SLI graphics solutions are commonplace, ASUS saw a weakness in traditional motherboards that only house a couple of your $800 GPUs. That’s why the NVIDIA-based P5N32-E comes equipped with not one or two…
