We’re always keeping our eyes open for crazy contraptions, or gadgets as we like to call them, and usually that means we have to point our eyes across the ponds, to really find something of interest. This time around, we’ve struck gold. These speakers look like bags, and are even just as mobile as a bag, but we assure you: they aren’t.
Logitech still haven’t made the Squeezebox Touch official yet, but unless someone has crafted one out of modelling clay and stuffed a Chumby inside, the touchscreen media streaming device is certainly out there in the wild. The 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen device promises WiFi b/g, ethernet, USB connectivity and an SD card slot, together with streaming content through Logitech’s Squeezebox system, but right now the Touch refuses to do anything other than wait for a software update.

We're not sure, exactly, what people's fascination is with telling time without numbers, but it seems like the fad isn't going away any time soon. But hey, as long as they keep looking somewhat stylish, who's to say that they really should go anywhere? This time around, we've got something from the company Nooka, and yes, we agree, that is pretty much the coolest name for a company. Ever.
And by everyone, we mean it. Considering the way the government is cracking down on cell phone usage while driving, and especially texting, handsfree devices need to improve so that people will want to use them. And while many people might not want to wear those earpieces, or have their phone’s speakerphone on all the time, Scosche has the answer for you: a Bluetooth speakerphone that attaches to your windshield, so that the solar panel on the back can keep your battery fully charged all day long.
MSI US announced the next generation of all-in-one computing today, the desktop PC called the Wind Top AE2010. The system is upgraded with an AMD Ahtlon X2 Dual Core processor, which provides increased processing power. The Wind Top also comes with a crystal clear 20-inch touch-enabled widescreen display. The display itself is classified with an EPA Energy Star Version 5.0 efficiency rating, which provides customers with a powerful PC, as well as a ridiculously aesthetically pleasing look to it.
Tearing down gadgets isn’t new. In fact, The PSP Go’s bigger brethren just went through the same thing. There’s plenty of reasons to do these things to new pieces of tech, but most of it revolves around finding out what makes them tick, and how much it cost to put it all together. In the case of the PSP Go, there’s nothing really new to show off. And to be honest, we’d much prefer to have one not disassembled, rather than look at those standard guts within.
Steampunk is definitely here, and it’s not going anywhere any time soon. Whether you like it or not. And while we’ve covered it before, this time it seems a bit too much to handle. We love flash drives as much as the next person, and Steampunk is a great design aesthetic, but let’s be honest: price matters. Apparently, not everyone got that memo.
It’s looking like devices have a way of showing up without anyone’s consent now a days. At least, the consent of those who make said gadgets. And now that the Magellan RoadMate 1700 has graced the spacious universe of the internet, we can chalk up another victim. This time around we get some GPS-loving action, and while many of you may be thinking there’s too many of these things out there on the market already, this little piece of guided technology is just amibitious enough with its standard features, that it could start pulling you away from those other devices.
We’ve heard from TwelveSouth before, and so we figured we should keep our eyes on these crazy designers. Looks like it paid off. Much like the first iteration of their crafty designs we saw, the BookArc is meant to keep your desk nice and tidy. And let’s face it, you probably need it. But unlike the BackPack, the BookArc is meant for bigger and better things: your Macbook.
iLuv announced today two brand new devices that should make charging your gadgets while in your car a breeze. They are the iLuv iAD115 Micro USB Car Charger and the iAD119 Dual USB Car Charger.
