Hey! You! Yes! All five of you! Come here. I have some good news for you. So remember when you guys all went and bought 30GB Zunes awhile back? Well I know they’re out of warranty now and all, but I just got this great tip from a friend. It seems Microsoft is going to let you trade in that ...

Touch? Touch is new school and us steampunk aficionados don’t like no stinkin’ touch! This old school iPod features the steampunking work of one Neal Bridgens. Adding wood, brass and copper to the device, he transformed Apple’s beloved music player into an ancient creation. It was created from scratch and if you have enough cash, Neal will whip one up ...

Perfect for those confidential notes that call for being destroyed right after being read. The Amazon Kindling was created using a laser cutter. This reminds me of that famous holiday ditty: Amazon Kindling on an open fire Jeff Bezos nipping at your nose (but mostly your wallet) Link [via]

Excuse the pun, but do Apple fans really give a “hoot” about owls? Sure, I suppose this Earbud Owl, made using a Epilog Zing laser cutter, does resemble the uber-geeky “O RLY?” macro, but that’s� about the furthest I can go with owl geekiness until I reach the point of obliviousness. Admittedly, this is a pretty neat idea. The owl’s ...

Though widely acclaimed and highly anticipated, Amazon’s Kindle 2 isn’t perfect by any stretch of the imagination.

Ever walk into a nice deli and get an everything bagel? You know, the one with all the seeds, wheat and tasty goodness glued to the outside? It reminds me of this Chinese console called the CVFH-N03-4G. Boring name, I know, but this fucker can play games (read: ROMs) from the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Game Boy Advance, Neo-Geo and ...

You like that? Two Microsoft products in one title. Boo yah! Here are some new pictures that are supposedly of the ZuneHD. While they are plausible, the quality is such shit that I can’t help but think they’ve been Photoshopped. Here’s the “rumored details” or whatever bullshit you want say will come with this unconfirmed device: The ZuneHD will have ...

Looking to start a revolution similar to that of the backing band from Purple Rain? Excellent. Get ready to drop $2100 on this ridiculous purple iPod Touch. The Prince Opus iPod comes with a 40-minute concert video, 15 live concert tracks, a bunch of photographs of Prince and….well, yeah, that’s about it. Only 950 of these iPods will be produced, ...

Want to know why Apple has so much cash in the bank? It’s due to the innovation of Steve Jobs combined with the cost-efficient microeconomics of Apple. The company’s latest version of the iPod, the iPod Shuffle, apparently only costs 28-percent of its retail price, $79, to make. That leaves Apple with nearly $57 profit for each player sold.

The unibody designs which Apple have already displayed through their use in last year’s MacBooks, MacBook Pros and the MacBook Air proves that the stark design allows for thinner devices made with a stronger architecture and sturdier material.
