11.21.2008S'mores Maker for the indoorsy type
When I look at a new kitchen gadget, I usually ask myself, "Would this thing make my life easier or more complicated?" This S'mores Maker seems to be designed to make a cozy camp-fire tradition both simpler (and therefore less fun) and more complicated (and therefore less fun). It promises to make two whole S'mores in the microwave in less than 30 seconds, the water reservoir ensuring even heating of chocolate, marshmallows, and graham crackers. Those folding arms that hold down the whole mess are kind of cute, and would probably amuse a kid whose home sick from school (if you're like me - the type of parent who gives sick kids sweets instead of soup). It's dishwasher-safe, so at least there's no huge mess to clean up. At just $7, it could make a good stocking stuffer - and it's available at Amazon.

11.21.2008Otterbox Impact - for iPhone 3G
Otterbox, which makes the pretty-much indestructible Defender series of cases for iPhones and iPods now has a new line, dubbed the Impact Series which offers protection without the bulk. Available in black or white, the Impact Series features durability, impact absorbing features and style in a single, slim-fit Silicone layer. All buttons, ports and functions are accessible right through the case, of course. The ergonomic design also has a function - the inner corners have been engineered to dissipate impact AWAY from your device in case of an accidental fall. If you're prone to dropping your electronics, stick with the Defender, but if your favorite gadget has never met the floor, feel free to switch to the form-fitting Impact case. ($19.99 at Otterbox). Also available at Amazon. Posted by Evan

11.21.2008Toxix - stereo headhphones
When I initially saw these on the ifrogz website, they looked so cool I had to own a pair. But when they arrived I was so disappointed - they look and feel cheap and the sound is only fair. For $19.99, maybe we were expecting too much, but they should re-think their pitch and aim them to kids, who might be thrilled. We're still a big fan of their cases though, and check out the awesome sale on iPod and iphone cases (25% off new 3G cases!).
