As you know, we jumped on the story of T3’s “secret” 01 Phone project when they first posted a mysterious entry about it a few months back. And we were delighted to learn that they actually had a desire to produce it, working with design firm The Alloy, and asking interested parties to sign a [...]
Feeling like your PMP is pumping out the jams in a manner that’s a bit too contemporary? Or a bit too, you know, boring? Then check out the Mexico Minigod vinyl speaker by marka27. A collectible vinyl figure that just happens to have a speaker, amp (battery- or AC-powered) and 3.5mm headphone jack, the Mexico [...]
Remember your first flat-panel TV? You thought you were the shiznit with that bad-boy, until some guy a couple doors down got one bigger, thinner and high-definitionier than yours. Which kinda ticked you off. Then, around Thanksgiving, you one-upped him. And the battle of the bigscreen LEDs continues between you and your neighbor to this [...]
Supposedly due to pressure from internet rumors, Nintendo made a wee-early-in-the-morning (well, here in the U.S. anyway) press announcement to unveil the next version of their handheld gaming platform. Featuring two cameras (one inside the hinge and one on the outside / back), an MP3 player and web browser, the DSi will also allow gamers to [...]
In a word: Probably not. Ok, fine, that’s two words. And actually, the 5800 has some pretty tasty specs: 3.2″ 640×360 touchscreen, 3.2MP camera with dual-LED flash, autofocus & Carl Zeiss lens, GPS, WiFi, a proper headphone jack and a microSD slot with an 8GB card tucked in there…unlocked for under $400 when it goes [...]

In my dream home, there is an arcade. And in that arcade, there will be a Pac-Man machine: The game so many of us became addicted to while listening to bad ’80s rock in mostly darkened arcades.
But unlike those spartanly-decorated amusement parlors of yore, my dream home arcade will definitely have some of these gorgeously [...]
What’s not to like here?! It’s a crazy USB gadget! It’s a miniature volcano! Your $18 will get you this handsome (read: boring) cylinder full of faux volcano goodness. Once filled with water and “lava beads” and plugged into your computer via USB, you can turn on the high-intensity LED lighting and the fan to [...]
You know, with all the talk of netbooks and mobile phones as computing platforms of late, we were getting a bit nostalgic for good, ol’ fashioned laptop computers. Thankfully, a couple of said devices have surfaced in the last few days that are turning our frown upside down.
From Bentley / Ego comes this super-exclusive (250 units), [...]
Integrating technology with style & design isn’t always easy at home. A nicely designed space with a spaghetti-tangle of wires just doesn’t cut it. That’s why I love products like the AmpLamp. The product of designer Dominic Bromley of Scabetti, who designed it for Futuros, AmpLamp combines a ceramic lamp base with a warm-toned shade [...]
