Apology Form makes saying “Sorry!” easier

I never had much problem apologizing for the things I do wrong. Though, of course, I never do anything wrong. Just ask my parole officer. But for some of you gadgeteers out there, communicating an apology might be one of the hardest things for you to do. And you’re not alone.

Baby Food Dispensing Spoon

Scoop, feed, wipe, repeat. New parents are all too familiar with this constant cycle of baby feeding. It seems easy, just because it’s the only real option you have. Not too mention that having an open food jar near a curious infant is never a good idea. Get ready for a spill!

It looks like those already sold on Dell’s slightly less business-like Vostro 2510 laptop don’t have to wait too long to get their hands on one, as the just-leaked laptop is now configurable on Dell’s website with an estimated ship time of 3 to 5 days. As we had heard, the base price […]

Sleep Headphones

How do you feel about looking like a sweat band-wearer straight out of the 80s? You’re okay with that? How about if we add in an awkward wire extending out of the forehead area?

Filed under: Desktops

So we hate to break it to the good guys at Tom’s Hardware, but while we’re impressed that they managed to overclock a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Quad 6600 to 5.1GHz using a cryogenic cooling system, it’s not nearly close to the world record they’re claiming — we’ve seen P4’s at up to […]

Casio gets fancy with LED-infused Tough Movement

Filed under: Wearables

Automatic movement? Sweeping hands? Pish posh. Casio’s looking to impress a few watch aficionados itself with the all new Tough Movement.

Dell goes once more into the breach with WiFi Mp3 player

Once again proving that the iPod leads the pack where it wants to go, Dell Computers has introduced a new mp3 player for underi. If you remember the last Dell MP3 player, you know that didn’t end pretty. So what makes the tech world think this will be any different? The answer is […]

This Treadmill will have you literally climbing the walls …

There are many ways to get exercise, most involving treadmills. Astronauts use them to keep in shape while in space, veterinarians use them to rehab Kentucky Derby winners, and even former Olympic swimmers use them to maintain that finely honed swimming stroke. But what about the poor mountain climber? Sure, there are […]

AOKI’s deodorizing suits keep you so fresh, so clean (clean)

Filed under: Wearables

We’re not even going to front — some seriously bizarre air conditioning-related gizmos have emerged from the great nation of Japan. The latest concoction to deal with heat wave side effects actually has nothing to do with keeping folks cool; rather, AOKI’s deodorant suits are designed to keep businessmen suffering from Hyperhidrosis adequately […]

Wake n’Bacon Alarm Clock gets you up with a whiff

Some of you probably have a lot of trouble getting up in the morning. Perhaps what you need is a little more motivation than a loud sound, but maybe just a little motivational smell. Something like the fresh smell of cooked bacon might be just the ticket.
