Apple iPod with Video

Apple iPod with Video

The often-rumored video iPod is finally here. Thinner than the previous models, the new iPod 30GB ($299) and 60GB ($399) features a 2.5 inch QVGA color screen, which can play videos you make, or one of the 2,000 music videos now available on the iTunes Music Store. Oh, did we mention that the new iPod dock features compatibility with the... [More]

Clip-n-Seal Bag Clips

Clip-n-Seal Bag Clips

There's really nothing worse than state food — and a lot of the bag clips we've seen simply don't do a good enough job at preventing this problem. So, we're really excited about these Clip-n-Seal Bag Clips ($5 for 3). Featuring an innovative rod and clamp design, these clips create a seal that is both air and watertight. Maybe now... [More]

The Garden by Zero 7

The Garden by Zero 7

One of our favorite chill artists, Zero 7, has released their third album, The Garden ($13). Like their previous efforts, The Garden is full of soft, ambient electronic beats and backdrops — but this album expands on their already-established sound, pushing it into a more uptempo arena, and does a good job of it. Vocalist Sia Furler returns for a... [More]

JBL On Time iPod Alarm Clock

JBL On Time iPod Alarm Clock

As cool as this thing looks, and although JBL would like you to believe otherwise, we're pretty sure the JBL On Time ($225) doesn't do time travel. What we are pretty sure of is that it kicks ass. It features halo acoustics that provide 360ยบ of great sound, a large, backlit LCD, an iPod Universal Dock, an alarm clock, AM/FM... [More]
