    Posted on December 7, 2009 | No Comments
    Are you a professional alpine sled racer? Bet you’ve been waiting a long time for something like this $900 Alpine Racing Sled to come along. Even if you're just an amateur alpine sled racer looking to take your qualifying times to the next level and you've set aside a little over $1000 in your “Ultimate Sled Fund” (shipping adds $115 to the price of the sled) then it might be about time to put the wheels in motion.

    I'll go on record and say that $25 seems like a lot of money for something like this. It's an intriguing idea, though, and might make a good stocking stuffer or Secret Santa gift for the Apple fan in your life.

    Nothing says “please rob me blind” like riding a foot-powered scooter and housing your iPhone in a dedicated quiver-like sash that exposes the top-most part of the device, logo and all.

    Tiny $80 travel router does wireless N

    Posted on October 19, 2009 | No Comments
    Take it from me: a good, inexpensive, small travel router is hard to find. This $80 pocket-sized wireless N-compatible router may be just what the doctor ordered, assuming your doctor is progressive enough to write you prescriptions for computer peripherals.

    I’ve been shuffling all these memories through my brain, trying to figure out where I’ve seen this MP3 player before. Shuffle though I may, I can’t seem to shuffle the correct memory back into place despite some pretty intense shuffling.

    This is a voice guided coffee maker. Yes, you read that right.

    Posted on October 9, 2009 | No Comments
    You know which sector has been aching for interactive voice command features? Coffee makers. For instance, if I were to set the timer on my own personal coffee maker, I’d have to press the timer button, select the time I want the coffee to brew, and then press the timer button again to set it. That’s two button presses with some button holding in between!

    Whoever manipulated the above image to make this humongous iPhone battery pack look relatively manageable ought to be given a raise. Conversely, whoever wrote “It is not bulky either as it just extends a little at the bottom” in the product description ought to immediately undergo a workplace evaluation. If it happens to be the same person who handled both the photo and the product description, then God help us all.

  • Micathermic Heaters: Do they work well?

    Micathermic Heaters: Do they work well?

    Posted on October 3, 2009 | No Comments
    Fall is here, don’t get me wrong. It’s NOT time to start thinking about winter yet – no sir. However, let’s start thinking about winter. I live in an old apartment in Boston and the radiator in my office is half the size of all the other radiators in my place. As such, it doesn’t put out much heat in the winter time and I’ve had to resort to space heaters (which I’m not too fond of) and Snuggies when it gets cold. These micathermic heaters have caught my attention, though. They’re kind of like space heaters but they’re super thin and can be wall-mounted. I saw this particular one in the SkyMall catalog today and wondered if anybody that’s reading this post either owns this exact model or one like it.

    There are numerous health benefits brought about by daily meditation but, let's face it, who has time to sit quietly with a clear mind until you reach a harmonious enough state to access the Akashic Records any more? Not me! I'm a blogger! So it's nice to know that there's a bullet train to Bliss Junction in the form of this $40 "Sound & Light Brain-Machine" from ThinkGeek.

    This is a pretty impressive feat of design work by a community of iPod nano users over at Quirky.com. The Kickster is a $14.35 iPod nano case that features a hard shell, cord wrap, and a kickstand that bends outward for use on a tabletop or swings downward to double as a hand grip while using the iPod nano to shoot video footage.
