We have found another entry under the classification “speakers that are unique, but not really.” The I Look Eyeball includes an amplifier speaker system that will work with your MP3 player or other music source. The “expressive” eye moves to the beat of your tunes with a gazillion colors and it will react to a hand clap. It comes with an audio stereo jack and runs on 3 x AAA batteries (not included.) Find the I Look for £14.94 (~$.31.00.)

Sometimes, sitting at my desk all alone at night, I wish I had some company.  Someone I can interact with for a moment, then get back to work.  Someone who doesn’t demand all of my attention, just a little diversion to clear my head.  I do believe I have found that someone, and Tengu is his/her/it’s name.

A little buddy to plug into a USB port, Tengu reacts to sound.  It lip syncs to everything from the music playing in the room to TV to the dog’s bark.  Granted, there’s a little bit of a learning curve when it comes to things like music and voices, but as we all have witnessed, it seems everyone has a little bit of a learning curve when it comes to things like that.

Tengu is available now for $58.

Wow, who knew the mild-mannered circuit board would become so trendy? We just told you about the Circuit Board Photo Album, now we’ve stumbled upon this, the Circuit Board Cigar Case. Holds 2 cigars, and according to the website, can also store Nintendo DS cartridges (yeah!) and for ultimate geekiness, USB thumb drives. Available in green (natch), red and blue. Available for $25 USD. Not into cigars? Check out the Cigarette Case or the Money Clip instead.

TDK’s latest speaker system is multi-functional and looks stylish as well. Featuring two 2.5 W flat panel speakers with NXT technology and Blue LCD display, the iSlim comes with an iPod dock with adapters, clock, alarm and FM radio. There is a AUX input for other audio players, a video-out jack, a one button equalizer, and menu and select keys. A remote and antenna are also part of the deal. For $149.00, we definitely prefer this to the Jukebox/Dock as a holiday gift, hint, hint.

LaptopSticks, the brainchild of designer Disuke Yamaguchi, look brilliant.  Made of bamboo plywood, the pieces fit together to keep them compact and easily stored and carried around - they could even fit right into a laptop bag if you’re anticipating spending a significant amount of time “in the wild” with your computer. 

When the pieces are put together, they form a laptop stand that raises the back of the laptop so that the screen is higher, keeping the user’s neck at a better angle and getting airflow underneath the computer.  LaptopSticks are available for pre-order at $10 apiece.

Don’t you hate it when your cell runs out of juice…and your charger is back home? Well here’s something to consider: the USB Leather Handstrap.  It’s an innocuous-looking, always-handy strap…that is until it’s time to charge your phone. Then, just slide the block down the strap, revealing both a USB cable that plugs into your computer, and a mini-USB for your phone. Now you’re ready to charge away! Measures 7” long x .3” Wide. The strap will not work with all phones, so make sure yours can be charged via USB before ordering. Currently on sale for $12 USD.

Avid readers of this site know there’s an endless amount of nutty USB-related gadgets out there. But here’s one that’s actually handy, in the office or on a business trip. The QMemory USB Card Disk with Calculator is pretty self-explanatory: it’s a wallet-ready 256MB flash card—that’s also a solar-powered calculator!  It even includes security software to protect your files. No batteries, chargers or software required. Although we think 256MB is way too small in this day and age, we love it’s functionality and price of $15 USD. You can also order them in bulk, with your company’s logo.

We’ve all gotten so angry at work we just wanted to punch a

co-worker wall out of frustration. Or freaked out at home because our PC “died” before we backed up all our priceless illegal downloads

files. For these moments, we highly suggest the Desktop Speed Bag, made by Everlast, no less. The Speed Bag has a terrific old school look to it (think “Cinderella Man”) and is made of vinyl with a suction cup base and heavy duty spring. It also comes with a pump and inflating needles, and measures 7.5” diam., 15"H. Yes, your co-workers may deem you weird for having this, but it beats those pesky assault charges you’ll narrowly avoid. Not surprisingly, the $32 USD Speed Bag is currently on backorder until early December.
