Sometimes you stumble across a piece of gadgetry that can really help brighten up your home (both figuratively and literally). Essentially, the Smoon Ombrella is a device that acts as a light source and vaguely resembles a glowing moon in the sky when placed on your Manhattan rooftop or sun room or dungeon, etc. The product of furniture designers Beau & Bien, this LED lamp runs off solar energy and can go a whopping 6 days on just 10 hours of charge.

This Plexiglas beast won’t come cheap. At $2200, it’s most certainly catered to the rich. Something tells me you could design a similar non-solar version for much cheaper.

Sure its not the 1200 dollar Optimus keyboard, but seriously who cares. If peripherals are your thing then you probably already have a nice laser Logitech mouse, like say the MX Revolution (100$). And the perfect companion for your overpriced mouse is a 200$ 199$ keyboard. The “ultra-slim Logitech diNovo Edge” apparently makes trackpads obsolete, and it should for that price tag. Of course it uses Bluetooth technology, but the coolest thing is that the dock doubles as a keyboard stand, “very nice.”

The diNovo edge offers “the PerfectStroke key system”, a Laser-cut look from a 11 mm piece of Plexiglass, their patented TouchDisc scrolling, and of course Backlit stealth controls. If keyboards are your thing the diNovo Edge might be worth checking out, if not “well our bad.” — Zach Wilt
