If you’ve ever wished for a real-world version of Photoshop’s eyedropper tool, you’re not alone. Korean designer Jinsu Park has created this “Color Picker Pen” concept, coupling an optical scanner with an RGB ink cartridge that can mix up any hue you zap.
USB hubs are super practical and a great way to ensure all your gizmos have a place to plug in. However, what if you’re out and about and need to power up multiple gadgets? That’s where the Solar Charging USB Hub comes into play.
Now this is pretty cool. The Scamander was built to go over anything and it truly lives up to its build promise. Peter Wheeler decided to make a car that could go anywhere and before he died, he saw his dream fulfilled.
It sports 35-inch tires, paddles on the rear wheels, individual braking systems, and a 2.0 litre Ford Zetec engine. He called it an “RRV” or a “rapid response vehicle” because it could change its function immediately for whatever you needed.
The body is constructed from foam plastic pods that are situated within the aluminum frame, making it aerodynamic and lightweight–perfect for those treks through the lake. It can hold four people and is really just about one of the coolest cars ever. Good on you Mr. Wheeler!

You might not realize it, but you’re probably sleeping wrong. Thankfully Zeo are around to tell you the error of your ways, and since we won’t take anybody seriously unless we’re paying them a subscription and they’re offering us a wireless-enabled alarm with LCD display, that’s part of the deal too. Measurements are taken via a headband you wear during the night, which sends data to the alarm and rates your quality of sleep as a “ZQ” number.
E-LEAD has revealed a new product called the Bluetooth Lazy Pad and for the life of me, I can’t figure out what’s so lazy about it. I mean, it combines two things–a keyboard and mouse–into one device. That’s pretty hard-working, if you ask me.
But I digress. The Lazy Pad allows you to connect wirelessly to your laptop by means of a Bluetooth connection. But for those of you who lack this function, you can connect using the USB port as well.
Featuring a 500mAh battery, this gizmo is capable of 8 hours of usage. My only real complaint here is the device is kind of oddly designed. It looks like it can fold but obviously can’t. Also, where’s the mouse? I guess the whole thing is the mouse? And it works like a remote control of sorts? Either way, interesting gadget and might be worth checking out if you hate your laptop’s trackpad.
The Nintendo press event at E3 2009 is done and over now but we’re still giving you the scoop on what went down. We got a look at the Wii Vitality Sensor today, which is a new gadget that’s meant to complement the Wii Fit line up.
Well, isn’t this thing a sight to behold. One of the main marketing attributes of the Nintendo DSi is it’s svelte form factor and generally small frame. So, adding on the Nyko Zoom Case seems to be a bit counterintuitive. But hey, what do I know?
Who doesn’t like a little bit of entertainment when lounging in the pool? But it can be difficult to bring out speakers and audio equipment for fear of it being damaged by the water. Luckily, there’s the Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker to solve all your music and pool-related problems.
Violet’s Mir:ror took its time coming, but the RFID coaster is now on the market and getting its first reviews. The Gadgeteer have been playing with the wireless gizmo, which allows you to tag objects with self-adhesive “ztamps” and associate them with functions like launching websites, playing media, sending messages or recording frequency of use stats.

Energizer just released a new flashlight and this thing means war. The Energizer Hard Case Tactical Flashlight offers up a lot of variety in the type of light you can shine on any given situation, whether it’s avoiding tripping over shoes on your way to the bathroom during a blackout or reading a map in the dead of night.
