Half iPod case, half notepad and all business sums up this $27 dollar iPod Nano 3G peripheral from Scripta. Whenever I’m in a Vic Mackey kind of mood, I know this case will come in handy. It helps me keep tabs on my informants and trust me, I have a lot of them*.

Whether it’s keeping track of incriminating evidence that will lead to some poor schmucks’ citizens arrest or compiling a grocery list of all the munchies I need to stock up on, this case suits me well. Yes, that’s right — this iPod case is great for stoners as well as sleuths.

What happens when you put Windows Vista on a Playstation 3? Just an assload of down time, that’s what. This video shows some schmuck successfully running the OS under emulation and requiring nearly 25 minutes to fully boot up.  It even takes twelve minutes to load up Notepad, which is an amazing feat considering how demanding the application is. This would be the equivalent of watching paint dry in Sony Playstation’s Home community.  It’s even worse than Linux for the PS3. Yuck!

How do you feel when you need to take a note down, but realize that you left your notepad at home? A pen doesn’t do much without paper. The Memo Pen combines the two into an inseparable hybrid of productivity. The Memo Pen is a standard-sized pen with a 2-foot by 2″ rolled-up piece paper in its tubing which dispenses much like a paper towel dispenser in a public restroom.

One concern is that it might be pretty hard to find refill paper for the Memo Pen. But come on, you can do that yourself for the cost of pennies. Available now for $29.95, which rates high on our over-priced product’s scale. — Andrew Dobrow
