Instead of carrying around all kinds of adapter tips that would fit into different products with the older iGo products, this is all-in-one and promises to charge all your mobile devices, be they…

Hello Kitty Fender. Repeat: Hello. Kitty. Fender.

No sir, this isn t some crappy, off-brand guitar plastered with Hello Kitty, this is a respectable Fender Stratocaster featuring the face of that cute and cuddly kitty that seems to be plastered on gadgets worldwide. This Fender costs $230 and there pretty much isn t a reason to NOT get one. David Ponce over…

Ugly USB Stick Collapses Space and Time

In what must be a direct result of the space-time continuum collapsing around us, an LCD-screened USB stick device has been released that ISN’T yet another mp3 player. This is a USB memory stick, and a pretty ugly one at that. But wait, before you all say “meh” and start throwing rocks, look at the…

Solidified Hydrogen Tablets

Don’t get me wrong—I hate the high gas prices, pollution and all that jazz. Then again, on the other hand something doesn t seem quite right knowing I could be driving a mobile hydrogen bomb at speeds upwards of 70mph. Danish scientists have developed a way to store hydrogen in a cheaper and safer manner:…

Nokia 770 Hands-On

Just got the 770 here at the ranch and I’m tooling around a bit with it. At first glance, it’s a bit bigger than I expected, about 5 inches across. It’s very thin and light and very austere—not too many buttons, not too many ports. There’s a power port on the bottom, a mini-USB port,…

Airtime

Can you gift me now? By Carlo Longino It’s that time of year again when gadget lust can be easily justified simply as hankering to fill a holiday gift list.

Freeline Skating, Brah

Freeline Skates are quite the interesting hybrid. Take a skateboard, snap it in half, make the halves into skates, and you’ve pretty much got the idea. The skates allow you to move in a way that is a cross between skating and rollerblading. You stand on them like a skateboard, yet move your legs like…

Hello Kitty Speaker-Blob

Looks like someone has been playing “A Boy and his Blob” for Nintendo a little too much. This speaker was designed by David Ellis for Kitty EX in Japan and looks like the result of a sexual union between Hello Kitty and a deformed marshmallow. Either way, the speaker is tuned more for fashion than…

Drug Dispenser Annoys You Into Medicating

Do you have trouble remembering to pop your pills? Unitech has created a drug dispenser that sends a warning signal saying, “Here is your medicine. Don’t forget to take it.” And it keeps saying that until you take the correct dosage out of the tray. Obviously this is a handy device for elderly folks who…

Peppermint Vibrations To Alert Sleepy Drivers

If you’re as poor a driver as I am, the idea of things like vibrating seat belts and directional horn sounds to alert you to an accident sounds like a nice addition to any car. Looks like Oxford professors feel that these kinds of sensory signals will help improve our reaction time in those first…

RGBy, the One-Pixel Camera

Shinya Matsuyama and Makoto Hirahara have designed a cube-shaped lamp that can sense color and then recreate that color. It is technically not a camera, but it is being described as a simple one-pixel camera anyway. It works with a switch on the bottom and red, blue and green LEDs. When the switch is pressed,…

Bored? Bust Out The Neodymium Magnets

United Nuclear has a good idea here. They believe that all other magnets are wimpy and puny! So they make high-quality neodymium magnets for you to play with. These magnets are rated at N40, unlike other magnets which clock in at under N40. What’s this mean to you? It means these are some strong-ass magnets…

Japanese Segway Scariness

Japan decided they needed to one-up the Americans yet again by unveiling a Segway that is minus the handles and steering mechanism. Safety and “riding-while-drunk” issues are my immediate concerns with this…? Hell, look at this guy: his eyes are closed so tight because he’s probably crapping himself. Expect Segway PMP-2 lawsuit news coming in…

Al Gore’s Perfect Gift: Jimi Wallet

Okay, I have no information that Al Gore even knows that this product exists. But it is the perfect gift for our former Veep. It’s boring, for one thing. But also environmentally friendly and high tech. The Jimi is made of 100% recycled, semi-transparent plastic, and its manufacturer promises to put 1% of its profits…

From Vinyl to CD with the TEAC GF-350

My uncle is getting older and he’s got tons of vinyl from the 60s, 70s, and 80s in his studio that he still listens to. Once I turned him onto iTunes Music Store and remastered editions of his favorite bands, he was ecstatic. Now with the TEAC GF-350, you can “rip” vinyl right to a…

Snowboard Cap Hardens On Impact

I missed the announcement of this snowboarding ribcap from the UK-based materials design company d3o when it came out in October. It’s made with “intelligent molecules” that harden on impact. Sounds a bit iffy—don’t you want the thing to harden just slightly before impact? But apparently it works, because they’ve used the product in many…
