LED Roses Never Wilt

My biggest problem with giving the females in my life roses is the fact that they are dead within a week (the roses, not the ladies). It could be a metaphor for the relationship, but this year I will one-up those silly girls and buy them some roses that can’t be killed. The LED roses…

iPodWeek – The Best of iLounge

This week at iLounge: Was this the slowest week for the iPod since 2003? Perhaps. With the entire iPod ecosystem quietly working on accessories for iPhone — 4 (!) of which we’re giving away to lucky readers in our iPod Fashion Contest — the 100-million-selling iPod has taken a surprising backseat this week. Thankfully, iLounge…

Funny Tivo Ads Feature Antenna as Phallus

The new “TiVo Gets Me” ads, part of their $15 million dollar campaign, are good. They’d be smug and impotent as any squeeky clean gadget ad, if it weren’t for the slip of college humor into each of these two clips. First, Mr. Baseball, a TiVo fan as visually distinguished by his antenna, compares his…

Vintage Apple Mouse Garage Door Opener

We love a good, vintage mod around these parts and this Apple bus mouse garage door opener just tickled me pink. Maker S1axter found a gutted Apple bus mouse and was instantly inspired. So I got bored tonight and started going though my box-o-cables and came across an old Apple bus mouse I had gutted…

Night Vision Webcam is Asking for Trouble

I’m sure there’s a non-perverted reason to own a night-vision webcam, but I have no idea what it is. Anyone? No? That’s what I thought. So if your girlfriend said no when you asked if she’d be into taping your pale, awkward lovemaking, just get one of these and do it without her knowledge. It’s…

Flat Panel TV Frame for Technophobes

Are you more traditionalist than tech-obsessed, but still like those flat panel TVs? This Chadwick Flat-Panel TV Frame might soothe that technophobia by disguising your TV as a picture hanging on the wall. It’s not the first frame-up for LCDs and plasmas, but this one’s available in three sizes, built to fit around either a…

Vista Battery Life Sucks

I’ve complained for months that Vista hogs battery life. Yet whenever I would look a laptop product rep in the eye and ask (most recently, HP and Gateway), I’d get a blank stare that says, “We can’t really tell you.” Now, the courageous folks at ZDNet have confirmation from inside HP. The Aero Glass interface…

Microsoft’s Touchscreen DigiDesk is All Work, No Play

It’ll be a long time before anything like this makes it into the mainstream, but Microsoft’s DigiDesk concept is a geek’s dream come true. It’s basically a giant laptop with two touch-sensitive panes. You can re-size windows, scan documents and even perform voice searches with just a few taps of the display. The video after…

He stepped back up to the plate. Knowing the count in his head he manipulates the bat in a circular motion above his shoulder, ready for whatever is about to come. Sixty feet away he saw a fire in the pitcher’s eye. The fire was dormant in the innermost recess of his soul. Then, in…

I’ve been waiting to buy a piano for years, but something’s always been missing. Sure, they’re timeless, classy instruments, but I require some tacky fad to be attached to anything I own.

New Acer Gemstone Notebooks are First to be Dolby Surround Certified

Yesterday we gave you the heads-up on Acer’s incoming Gemstone notebooks. Today Acer lifted the veil on its new design, and so far we’re not overly impressed. Okay, so the notebooks have smoother lids and more “opalesque” curves. There’s even a neon blue light (think Tron) that streaks from the DC-in port on the side…

The Wall Street Journal says that Microsoft and Yahoo are back to talking about a merger, after a serious flirtation a year ago.
