I am really not a big fan of umbrellas, they always seem to be in the way, keep one hand constantly occupied and if they are not small and vulnerable to the weakest of winds, I forget them everywhere. For me to use an umbrella it really has to rain pretty hard, the kind of heavy rain you can’t fence off with good waterproof outwear clothing.
This LED flashing umbrella on the other hand, would almost make me wish for a rainy day, because it would make me look like Luke Skywalker and for me that would be a cool thing.
This “Lightsaber-umbrella is available at gadget.brando for $44,- in five different colors. The LEDs are placed inside the umbrella tube and have four different light modes: dim light, light, flashing light and dim flashing light.

With docks floating dime-a-dozen around the iPod/iPhone accessory market, why would you consider another one just now? Well, consider what the Revo Heritage iPod dock propositions enticingly - handcrafted American Walnut body with the switches and inlay custom-manufactured for a complete 60's look and feel. Well, well.
And we've just begun. Hidden inside the lovely retro facade is all of cutting-edge technology - DAB, DAB+, FM and Wi-Fi internet radio, DLNA UPnP streaming, plus docking for your iPhone or iPod (all models). The minimalistic design packs in a ‘secret-until-lit’ graphical OLED screen, with a high-end 7W amplifier, 3-inch neodymium speaker driver, and a remote control. A USB port allows connection to other MP3 players or memory sticks with MP3s and even the videos on your iPod can be output to the OLED display via a video-out socket. Included with this awesome package is a 30-day trial package from online music service Last.fm, which gives you access to its database with more than 5 million tracks and is capable of generating a unique playlist each time you access it.
The Revo is due for an early November UK launch from John Lewis at a totally upmarket price of £229.95 (around USD $375).

The wait is longer than we imagined, and it is now official. Allerta is offering its limited, first-edition inPulse Bluetooth watch for the BlackBerry on pre-order, but you will have to hold on until February 2010 for the shipping to begin.
The watch sports a 1.3-inch color OLED display and functions as a virtual, display-only accessory for your BlackBerry while wirelessly communicating with it via a Bluetooth 2.0 connection. So that, based on the email, SMS, Twitter previews or call alerts you see on your wrist, you can choose to flip out your smartphone or not. The magic is made possible through a custom BlackBerry background application which runs on the watch to keep track of your received messages/calls and also provides the ability to customize the watch itself.
Powered by a 150mAh Li-Ion battery, the watch has a micro-USB jack for charging - with a single charge going approximately into 4 days while you get an average 20-30 updates per day. The inPulse has a built-in vibrating motor to alert you of incoming calls and boasts the ability to pull in new text messages directly. All the settings on the watch (time, alarms, alerts) are controlled through the BlackBerry itself, with the wireless connection also facilitating over-the-air firmware updates.
Part with $149 (shipping extra) and book your seat for some great wrist candy. And much more.

We have all been there and suffered that - the asinine need to peer around devices, trying to identify and classify loops of anonymous cable so that we can get the required ones to perform. Along comes somebody who gives us this elegant solution with the cool mantra "The best ideas are always simple" and we cannot help but pinch ourselves for having forgotten. Ofcourse, the best ideas have to be simple and the Dotz Cord Identifiers are perfect proof. These colorful little plastic identifiers snap around your cables and carry a picture of the device that the cable belongs to. You can even reuse the same identifier with another device - just change the device icon within the case and you are ready to go. There are different categories of identifiers for your office, home, or even gaming needs. Is that brilliant or what.
Dotz also offers a couple of more solutions for cable organization, again pretty elegant and worth giving a try - the Cord Straps (set of 8 at $9.99) which help tie up cables in a neat bundle, and the Cord Wrap ($9.99 each) which can help hide all the unwanted lengths of cable within its case. The Cord Identifiers are available in sets of 10 at $9.99. Plus there are 24 ready-to-go punch out icons and 12 do-it-yourself punch out icons included with every kit.

Lady Gaga move over, and collectors sit up once more - Monster has announced yet another limited edition "in-ear" headphones, this time as a tribute to legendary trumpeter Miles Davis.
Created in conjunction with Miles Davis Properties, LLC, the new headphones, called Miles Davis Tribute headphones, will bear the official name and signature of the musician himself. The headphones will sport a gold/brass finish directly inspired by the actual trumpet played by Miles Davis, with his silhouette and signature on the earpiece. There's more music for your ears - those who choose to afford the limited edition headphones will also be blessed with the official 50th anniversary boxed set of the artist's album Kind of Blue, featuring two music CDs, a DVD and a 24-page booklet. Plus, Monster offers a great one-time Limited Lifetime Replacement Guarantee on the Miles Davis headphones, meaning you break the headphones accidentally and Monster will replace them at no charge.
Pricing and availability is not yet known, but stock up on some hard cash if you are planning to be on the list.

Here's an iPhone case that does a teeny bit more than just snuggle around your iPhone. The XShot iPhone case (3G and 3GS) wraps around your phone to protect and exposes a 1/4″ thread tripod mount to snap a few pictures, all at once. Though the case has been designed for the XShot tripods, it works with any other tripod or monopod as well. Your iPhone itself will be safely nestled within the chrome plastic case while you are shooting.
Though it maybe a bit frustrating to use your iPhone at other times with the case on as the adapter juts out rather uncomfortably, you need to use this accessory primarily as a tripod adapter for your phone. The XShot iPhone case starts shipping in November, but if you pre-order now, you get $10 off on the sale price of $29.95.

What's the tantamount rule for a girl's night out on the town? Never leave your drink unattended. For too long, women have been the victims of date rape by way of dosing drinks. It only takes seconds to transform your fun, fruity cocktail into a noxious concoction ala Snow White.
Britain-based cosmetics firm 2 Love My Lips is fighting back with their new line of lip gloss. Called "2LoveMy", this line of glosses comes with a drug testing kit. If you sip your drink and it tastes off or if you just don't trust the skeevy guy in the corner that insisted that it's on him, simply dip your fingers into the suspicious libation and rub it on the included pink testing strip. If the strip turns blue, then it's time to call security and your friends and give that creep the beatdown he deserves.
Available in five quality glosses including Sophisticated Coffee, Passionate Pink and Posh Gloss, "2LoveMy" glosses not only keeps the pervs at bay, it also promises to plump lips and freshen breath. Unfortunately, 2 Love My Lips is currently an U.K. exclusive, but the company is looking to expand to other country so hopefully it'll be jumping the pond soon.

Would it be Block, Feather, Loop, Mint, Treat or Wafer that you would trust your iPod Shuffle with?
We would choose all, since these high density silicone cases from Incipio {LAB} Series are not only the cutest we've seen, but also offer a cozy haven for your delicate Shuffle to slide into when you are on the move. All the cases have cut-outs that give easy access to the Shuffle's controls, and are available from Computers Unlimited (UK) at prices starting from £9.95 (USD $16). Just don't leave it anywhere near your canine if you happen to go for Treat.
More images after the break.

Good things, little packages. So it is with the MobileLiteG2 card reader from Kingston. This second generation portable card reader supports almost all the formats (SD, SDHC, microSD, microSDHC, Memory Stick PRO Duo, Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo and Memory Stick Micro), and is small enough (2.45 x 1.16 x 0.646 inches) to fit into a pocket. Make that a really tiny pocket, like the one on your kid's teddy bear.
That apart, the MobileLiteG2 has retractable covers on each side to protect the USB connector and the flash memory cards from damage. The chipper is available standalone at $11, or bundled with a 4GB ($28.50) or 8GB ($46) Class 4 SDHC Kingston card.
