I am not so much of a martial arts fan, but hey, I do love my Bruce Lee movies. Therefore it comes as a pleasant surprise to learn that Nokia is offering a special N96 deal that comes with an engraving of the late Bruce Lee on it. Besides this, Nokia indulges you with other Bruce Lee attractions (action figure and nunchucks) packed in a specially designed box....
Tough times call for weirder gimmicks! Sharp unveiled a 26-foot tall Christmas tree made by stacking 43 of its Aquos LCD televisions at the Grand Central Station. Apparently Sharp will give away all the 26 TVs and as much as $100,000 for "green" job training. The 52" panels are all lined at the bottom of the tree tapering to 19" at the top. All the displays are hooked together to show videos of waterfall that spilling from the top...
Light up today, yes, go ahead and tear it off the calendar page and strike it across the front base, to illuminate the matches. This innovative calendar that I am talking about is a tear-of matches designed by Yurko Gutsulyak for VS Energy International Ukraine. With the premise of conveying the idea of energy effectively, this matches calendar is unique and bright! A single match represents each day of the month…so now you know where go, every time you...
From a handy flashlight to the mighty Sunforce torch we see here, the perception of illumination has undergone tremendous transformation. Akin to a spotlight, the Sunforce HID features a 35 watt HID bulb and 12V 7Ah battery that shines with 40 Million Candlepower. Although it may seem very portable, you really shouldn't rely on the battery power as it will stick around for 40-minutes before it begs for more juice via AC or DC power with the included adapter....

Pathfinder is an app (presumably for the iPhone) designed by David Sweeny. It is meant to act as a way-finding application for visually impaired people. It has the ability to convey information to the user visually, aurally and haptically. The app acts as a user interface to the information cloud that surrounds public spaces. David says that this tool features a set of intelligent filters that allow only the most relevant way-finding and content information pass through. Each user...
My son really loves this toon and he sure will want this dock. The whacko thing about the dock (besides the fact that it plugs-in the iPod), is that the eyes pop out and start doing a roll whenever you play the music. Now, we adults might find this a bit tacky, but I'm sure the kids will love this. After all they love goopy stuff. Check out the video as well....
The ultimate in luxury for couch potatoes has to be the voice activated TV remote from Oki and a Waseda University team. The effort, of course by the tech-team, is to isolate the users voice from the rest of the babble. The endeavor is successful because the remote uses four microphones embedded in the front of the remote, plus "a proprietary algorithm for voice frequency analysis [that] detects talking that originates from directly in front of the device and...
In these economic troubled times, LG and Samsung's woe run-eth over. Kodak has gone ahead and sued the two companies for infringing its digital imaging patents. Apparently the patents cover image compression, capture, and storage, as well as previewing video content. News is that other cell phone companies have licensed Kodak's technology for use in their cameraphones, but LG and Samsung have done their own thing. LG and Sammy plan to fight it out. The gloves are one, come...

Stuffing five fingers into slots meant for three will be difficult, but the terrestrial look will be awesome. The gloves feature a BBC logo print and comes in a black and...
I am all for artistically fashioned gadgets that proclaim humor and exclusivity. However with the Pig USB Mouse, I'm on the fence. I can't decide whether I love it for it's clever style or loathe it for poking the pigs eyeball to get the mouse working. Gross! Apparently the unique big eyeballs are for right and left clicking the mouse. The geek in me likes the 1200dpi optical sensor, but the dame in me hates the eye poking. Brave...
Integrating MP3 players into headphones is a neat idea that has not yet gained much momentum. But that can all change if you give the Skullcandy Double Agent headphones, a nod. Styled like a teen-boppers must-have, the headphones double up as an MP3 player as well (no wires!), but the good news is that you can hook up another device to it. So you are not just restricted to the included player. You can source your music from other...
