teeny tiny mp3 player

Available only from Japan (and the nice people over at Think Geek), this is an mp3 player that is the size of 2 sugar cubes. It includes 4GB of memory, rechargable battery, and an earbud attached directly to the player. For two earbuds, plug another one right into the device.

For something that's super easy to use and super tiny, $80 is a steal.

Get it here!

wish list

Its my birthday in a week, and the holidays soon, meaning (as one of my profs proclaimed at the end of class) GENERAL JOY! Here's a list of some ideas of things to get your super nerdy friends.

Millenium Falcon and Death Star Transformers

Nintendo Monopoly - All your properties are belong to us


GP2X WIZ Handheld Emulator - Upload ANY emulator and ROM (N64, SNES, Atari, gameboy, etc.). Has DivX and e-book reader support, and comes with 1GB of storage with additional room for SD cards. AMAAAZIINNNGGG.

Electronic Drum Kit T-Shirt - This one's for you, Michael. 7 playable drums on a t-shirt... Also comes in guitar!

Star Theatre Home Planetarium - Forget glow-in-the-dark stars, kids should have this in their room! And by kids I mean me. This one's my personal favorite.

spinagogue

Is your Chanukah party boring? Want to spice it up a bit? Get Spinagogue, the official game of the Major League Dreidel competition. It comes with 6 different stadium game terrains, 6 dreidels, and 5 different games. Challenge Bubby to a spin-off for some latkes, convert your friends, and prove to your family that you've got the Chanukah spirit.



Thanks Ari for the MLD link!

Sorry for the lack of posts... Hope this video of a dog playing Tony Hawk Ride makes up for it.

leonid meteor shower

Today and Tuesday look out for meteors coming from the constellation Leo. This shower is the cause of the earth passing through the tail of the comet Tempel-Tuttle, and there will be 70-90 shooting stars per hour. So get away from the city, bundle up, and enjoy!

bread shoes

Edible shoes. Because foot-in-mouth disease is all the rage now! It really makes perfect sense: soft, squishy soles with a hard protective coating. Hobos, rejoice!



I think I'll have to pass on Subway for lunch...
