The Amazon Kindle is have some amount of sorting-off things that have been climbing up their legs, with the pricing problems and all. In the mean time, Barnes and Noble have made the most of this and decided to bring out the Nook. It’s like making hay while the sun shines. Surely, the Nook will be a hot favorite among Valentine’s Day shopper, now that it’s all new and all. 
With a form factor that puts all near competition out of contention, the uber sleek and uber slim LG Mini GD880 is made ‘in response to specific requests from actual consumers’. The existing customers of LG seem to be having a problem with the excess bulk of the full-touch (3.2” screen) phones that are available presently. Under the sleek, sexy and slim hood comes some interesting features like 7.2 Mbps HSDPA, Wi-Fi, a-GPS, FM and even a cool 5 megapixel camera. The phone is most likely aimed at those who dig social networking more than anything else in a phone. Trust me, that’s not a small user group they’re targeting. 
iPhone repair site iResQ believes that it has received a cool front panel of what may well be, the front panel of the 4th generation iPhone. The store revealed three images that are supposed to bear witness to this holy truth. From the images we can deduce that the LCD seems to be glued to the digitizer which resembles the gen-1 iPhones. The panel in question here also seems to be slightly longer than the original ones. A reflective sensor decks the area near the speaker. No idea as to what exactly it may be for though. 
Now you know you’re on the ‘extremest extreme’ of our times. They’ve gone a long way in the past, but with the Nanodragster, the nanotechnology freaks have truly gone past the allowed insanity level. It’s said to be 50,000 times thinner than a single strand of human hair. It is driven using electricity or heat. The car mainly comprises of spherical molecules called buckyballs, made of 60 carbon atoms each serve as rear wheels. These wheels help the vehicle chemically grip the ‘dragstrip’. The front wheels are made of p-carborane. 
A party misinterpreted or badly hosted, whatever be the reason, if you’re responsible for a bunch of kids coming into your home and tearing it down to shards, there’s nothing much you can do to get away without the scaffolds coming your way. Even the most ingenious idea wouldn’t let Aneesh get away with the terrible mistake he made by making a house party public on Facebook. About 100 revelers turned up and turned the place outside down. 
I’ll be brutally honest; unfortunately due to unavoidable circumstances beyond my means of control I missed out on the whole Nintendo Game Boy bit. Yes it pains me but one can’t miss what one never had, but damn it I do! And although I’ve since moved on, it’s great reminiscing about the old consoles, hand-held or otherwise. But Game Boy fans are still out there and here are some of the most awesome custom designed game boys I’ve ever seen, I f I had to buy one now, I’d want one of these.
TomTom have pimped up the ‘Ease’, so as to help it live up to the auspicious occasion of Valentine’s Day. It’s been dipped in red and comes with the expected 3.5 inch QVGA display, 2GB internal memory, Tele-Atlas maps, Map Share, an integrated battery and a Fold & Go mounting mechanism within the being of the device. May be it is directed at those who find it hard locating the nearest chemist store when the night suddenly seems young on February 14th. If you’re the woman of such a guy then gift it to him! 
Not that I’m much of a Mario fan but I am one of those over grown kids at heart who loves toys and the gaming industry in general. So naturally when I stumbled across this, the Mech Mario designed by Donald Kennedy aka KodyKiala, I was intrigued. The designer’s whacky idea was to have a Nintendo character ride a Mech Suit modeled after themselves. Naturally the first one that comes to mind is Mario, so there you go, a little Super Mario controlling a Big Super Mario. While this is a bit odd, I have to go with creative as well and hey, if no one else wants one, I know I do.

It’s been five years... five long years since we’ve seen a Porsche 911 S model. The 911 series has been one of my favorites for along time so naturally I’m totally psyched to see the latest 2011 911 Turbo S. It’s gorgeous, of course, and designed to dish out more power and better handling. I’m stoked! This baby packs 530 horsepower, 516 pound-feet of torque with their seven-speed PDK dual clutch gearbox (that’s three more than I have in my car) and a torque vectoring system for stability. With a top speed of 196 mph, the 911 Turbo S clocks in 3.3 second in the 0-62 miles per house section. Porsche has got both models, the convertible and hard top and although they haven’t hit the lots yet, they’re headed for the Geneva Motor Show in May. 
Guys please don’t fret and turn to agony-aunt columns to dig up suggestions for buying the perfect Valentine gift for your lady love. Allow me to help with a gift option that will certainly fuel up your love life. Amosu has rolled out the Pink Limited Editions for every lady who loves to celebrate this day by receiving the best gift. Chocolates are gobbled up to feel guilty later, flowers dry out to reach the bins and cards find their way in to a heap of other cards after reading the I LOVE YOU for the nth time. But it’s the Pink Limited Editions cell phones dressed in color of love that will remind them that they are loved day in and day out. Opt for the bright pink Blackberry Bold but if your pocket permits you then grab the diamond-studded Blackberry Bold or iPhone in pink. Though there is no official detailed information, you need to go by my words and your eyes. All I am sure about is that the Pink Bold 9700 is tagged at £1000 ($1,600). While the other Bold comes for £6,000 ($9,300) and the Pink Iphone with diamonds flaunts a price tag of £14,000 ($21,800).

Now here’s a great idea for the lazy business man or for the workaholic quarantined at home (It works both ways). The Texas Robot. This apparently simple rigged robot with wheels was designed and built by Willow Garage based out of California. Their idea was to make it convenient for those in one office to easily interact with those in other offices. The Texas Robot is a simple device albeit a wee bit crude looking. It comprises of a display, computer, webcam, speaker, Wi-Fi router and a battery pack. The designers claim that the battery can go a whole day without having to recharge. Should it require charging though, the robot is designed to autonomously dock to juice-up. The user’s simply control the robots movements via remote from his station (wherever that may be). The best part is this could negate the need to actually come to office altogether. That’s’ what I’m looking forward to. It's still a bit of a mystery as to whether or not the robots will be commercialized but I can hope can't I? 
No matter how hungry I am, I can never sink my teeth into the DSi Toast. How in the right mind can you bite into it?
iPod accessories are still going really strong and it seems like any company that launches a new product that doesn’t have an iPod or iPhone accommodation is not going to do well. So enter the Kenwood C-IP313 which is a CD reader slash Card reader slash iPod dock slash AM/FM radio slash USB supported Mini Hi-Fi player. The sleek looking player also comes with a card slot for a miniSD, microSD/SDHC cards as well as a USB port for pen drives. The player can read MP3 and WMA files from these external sources. Amongst its other features it also reads CD-R/RW format CDs and other than the iPhone, unfortunately the C-IP313 plays real nice with the iPod Classic, iPod Touch, iPod Nano, iPod and iPod Mini. Kenwood C-IP313 Mini Hi-Fi is cost just $300.
