Ventura SPARC rx Watch

Priced at about $2,200, this watch probably won’t make it into my stocking this Christmas but it does look pretty cool. The SPARC rx has a rotating face that turns it from a standard watch into a Nike-esque sports watch with just one twist. The case is made of Durinox, which is up there with…

Pyramat Audiotastic Nintendo Chair

The Pyramat PM220 aka “the Uber Nintendo Chair,” as I like to call it, is now available through Target retailers nationwide. The PM220 allows you to immerse yourself in a personal surround-sound system thanks to integrated ass speakers and an ARX subwoofer. This chair is also designed to prevent any gaming injuries—it’s ergonomically correct for…

Samsung Sprint Power Vision Phones

Samsung phonemeisters have been busy little bees these past few months, and the fruits of their labor now culminate in these two Sprint Power Vision phones, the MM-A920 and the MM-A900. Both use “broadband-like” speeds to let you get news, music and video. The services now offered on these phones include the recently announced Sprint…

BuzzTrainer – USB Shock Therapy

Personally, when I think of discipline, I think of torture and pain. That’s why I like this wrist strap that administers small shocks on specific commands. This product claims it can “improve your PC skill” through the administration of said pain. Apparently the BuzzTrainer software that is included is able to be bind to almost…

MII FlashcamStalker’s Best Friend

Okay, this isn’t as good for stalkers and peeping toms as much as it’s great for tactical/law enforcement types. The MII Flashcam appears to be a mild-mannered flashlight. Looks can be deceiving because this flashlight is fully loaded. This flashlight features a conveniently-mounted camera that can record video up to 640×480 and take snapshots at…

FWD:[Fwd:re:Fwd] CYBERHUG!!!

Singapore scientists and researchers are putting their time and effort into revolutionizing the way your relatives forward emails. They are using an existing technology to hopefully develop a way to send hugs over the internet. Currently there is a jacket for chickens that simulates the feeling of being touched. The scientists are trying to make…

Locking Cigarette Case

As a former nicotine-inhaling cretin, I fully support a gadget like this. The hardest thing about quitting cold turkey is those random cravings, and most people (like me) don t have the self control to wean themselves off cigarettes exponentially downward. This locking cigarette case could help. It’s set to open at timed intervals, but…

Gizmodo Ink

8-year-old Lauren’s Christmas list includes a cellphone, an iPod, a laptop computer, and no toys. Kids have become the same gadget-obsessed zombies as their adult counterparts, but, boo-hoo, they’re often overwhelmed when trying to decide between an iPod nano and the video iPod. [WSJ (reg)] Real estate agents can house-stalk with even greater tenaciousness, thanks…

New Nooka Models

Nooka has been quiet for a while but they just dropped seven new models including the ZEN series and ZAN. Nooka, designed by Matthew Waldman, is a pretty cool boutique line of digital and analog watches. For a while all they had were the ZOO and ZOT but these new models, including a weird one…

Samsung SPH-V6800 Slider

You know, I’ve never owned a slider phone. Strange, really, because I’ve owned a LOT of phones but for some reason there’s not a glut of sliders made for the US market. I think that’s a shame. So of course, it broke my heart to see that the Samsung SPH-V6800 multimedia handset, indeed a fancy-lookin’…

Sure You Want That Beer??

Ah, the Kegbot. Even the name should send a jolt of excitement down your spine. If you haven’t guessed, this fantastic invention is actually a Linux refrigerator that will tell you exactly who’s been drinking your beer and even figure out that drinker’s blood alcohol level, then log all this information onto a Web page…

DAB Radio Cuteness

This is the Cath Kidston limited-edition Roberts Revival DAB radio for John Lewis. What all these fancy names mean, I don t have the slightest clue, but this DAB radio is pretty sweet and looks unique, too. It features the latest PausePlus that allows live radio to be paused for up to 40 minutes while…

Vibrating Electronic Stain Remover

Get your mind out of the gutter—this is a completely legit gadget. We are completely serious here, no jokes allowed, especially when dealing with stains and vibrators. This uses lubricant water and then vibrates 120 times per second on the stain to completely remove it without any color fading. It uses a bunch of D…

Lego Pinhole Camera

It seems that we here at Gizmodo have gone into some kind of Lego frenzy. Maybe we are just finally realizing the coolness of what people can do with Legos. This is a total conversion of a medium-format pinhole camera. It uses all Lego parts and is fully functional. This guy seems to have a…

Pong Wall Clock, Coolness to the Max

Normally I turn into a Negative Nancy when it comes to vintage gaming products and memorabilia, but this thing is cool as hell. There isn t much information available regarding how this was built, but it functions pretty simply. The game of pong is played until another minute has passed, then one of the paddles…

Toasty! v2.0 USB Heating Slippers

First we had USB heating gloves, which were a decent idea, although it’s probably difficult to type with gloves on. Now from the same company there are USB heating slippers, which are a novel idea. Get up from the computer, put them on and simply plug them back in when you return. Oh, Universal Serial…

Spider Catcher Catches Spiders

Spiders suck. They might eat insects and help catch bugs, but they creep me the hell out. When I saw this absolutely ridiculous-looking gadget called the “Spider Catcher”, I knew it was made for me. You point this sucker at a spider, slam it into that sonofabitch and he’s done-for, thanks to nylon bristles that…

Samsung Phones Recognize Gestures

Samsung has released two Korea-only phones that come with a nifty feature: gesture recognition. By gesture, Samsung really means movement.

If you’ve dreamt of laying down beats on your Treo, listen up: an update to the Palm favorite BeatPad from miniMusic could make handheld musicians very happy indeed.
