If you somehow have a need for checking your favorite news, gossip, and media portals away from your computer, smartphone, TV, and every other connected device in your life, perhaps you should consider a Chumby One ($100). This diminutive, Wi-Fi enabled Internet buddy features a unique, widget oriented interface for accessing content, along with a 3.5-inch touchscreen, FM tuner, built-in speaker, 2GB microSD card for storage, and a USB 2.0 port, all tucked inside a cute, kitchen-friendly body.

With Amazon on its second iteration of Kindle, you knew brick and mortar stalwarts Barnes & Noble weren't going to just let them take over the electronic book market. Hence, Nook ($260). Built atop Android and featuring dual screens — one e-Ink, one color touch screen — Nook aims to present books and their covers to you in a whole new, but familiar, way. Like the Kindle, it features built-in 3G wireless networking, storage for up to 1,500 books, and a sleeker design than Amazon's front-keyboard gadget. The icing on the cake? There are thousands of books available for free, making the two and some change price tag seem that much friendlier.

With a crazy futuristic design and a host of features, the iREV ($24,000; January 2010) is your new party barge. This Interactive Recreational Entertainment Vessel seats up to 10 people inside its circular decks, and features a central low smoke charcoal grill that can be swapped for a number of other centerpieces, an outboard electric 2-5 hp motor with 8-10 hours of battery life, 4 storage bins, an integrated umbrella, and an optional audio package with marine approved hi-fidelity 500 watt speakers, amplifier, satellite radio and a MP3 connection.

Don't let the name fool you — the Missisipi Distiller ($200) isn't some shoddy backwoods attempt to make money by selling moonshine machines, but rather a way to extract fragrant oils for use in colognes and perfumes (riiight). Made by the Missisipi Destil Co., this contraption uses a series of tubes, an oil lamp, and a water-filled condensing pot to take plant leaves like lavender, mint, and thyme, remove the essential oils, and turn them into a concentrated liquid. In addition, the Distiller comes with a walnut base, borosilicate glass pieces, and a frame made from five copper plates, secured by copper rivets to make it look even more interesting. A can't-miss conversation piece.

Ever have an urge to throw a rock through the window the guy who just blocked you in, or parked so close you need a can opener to get your car out?

This book of 20 unique pull-out cards is perfect for letting the parking-challenged know just where you stand, with heartwarming messages such as "Did you park like this or was there an earthquake?"

Most humans spend a third of our lives asleep, so why wouldn't you want to monitor and improve that time as much as the portion you spend awake? The Zeo Personal Sleep Coach ($400) can help you do just that. The system consists of a headband with a SoftWave sensor to accurately track your unique sleep patterns, and a bedside display that shows the time, a graph showing your pattern of sleep phases from the night before, a "ZQ" single-digit representation of the quantity, quality, and depth of your sleep, a count of how long you actually slept and how long it took you to fall asleep, and more. For even more information, pop the SD card out of the display and into your computer to upload your data to Zeo's website, where you can get an even more detailed look at your sleeping patterns, and see personalized tips for getting your best night's rest.
