Outset Nonstick Meatball Basket For Cooking Meatballs On The BBQ Grill

Meatballs rock, great by themselves, with spaghetti, in a sandwich, etc, The only negative I can think of is sometimes they are too fatty or greasy.  Cooking them on the grill would most likely allow a bunch of the fat/grease to cook off but cooking them on the grill was…

PeeWee Power 2.0 Laptop For Children

I like the idea of a kid friendly, rugged, water resistant type kids laptop.  In this case the PeeWee Power 2.0 Laptop.  The only thing I am struggling with is the adult price of $449.99.  You can buy a used laptop ( with more power) online (granted it might not…

AGF Vandelay iPhone 4 Case With Holster

AGF is known for making some pretty solid iPhone 4 cases, including the Beetle, and now my new favorite, the AGF Vandelay iPhone 4 case with holster and kickstand. The AGF Vandelay iPhone 4 case has a nice feel to it.  It is lightweight, but strong and has a nice…

Monster Beatbox Review

The Monster Beatbox does a good job of putting out loud sound and filling a decent size room with music, from a fairly compact form factor.  For about $400 you get a very loud boombox style iPod/iPhone dock.  The top sports a convenient handle which is good because the Monster…

WheeMe Massage Robot

The robots are taking over, which in this case is a good thing because I can't get anyone to rub my back.  The girl in the photo however, should have no need for this robotic massager, she probably has guys lined up to cop a feel provide a massage. The…

A group of engineers and bicyclists from Germany have built a bike lock that basically climbs a normal street light type pole.  The pole climbing bike lock currently does not have a name or price, but sure is clever.  The bike lock is operated via a remote control.  Most crafty…

Eco-Friendly Building With Dynamic Facade

An idea, a world's first I think, that makes sense.  A building that has a facade that transforms dynamically based on the time of day to conserve energy.  Designed by Ernst Giselbrecht + Partner, the building is made of electronic aluminum shutters that move to allow/block sun light.  Cool video…

Kymera KYMWAND Universal Remote Control

For all the Hairy Pooter fans out there, behold the ultimate Christmas present. Desperately trying to cash in on the wizard-wannabe-no-accounting-for-the-taste crowd, manufacturer Kymera excreted this little nugget just in time for the holidays.  The Kymera KYMWAND Universal Remote Control.  Unlike Harry Potters wand, this one is not eleven inches…

Nokero N200 Solar Light Bulb

We are fans of the Nokero solar light bulb and enjoyed our time with the Nokero N100.  As with most things, improvement comes along.  The Nokero N200 looks better (IMHO), lasts three times longer, and is 60% brighter.  A detailed comparison of the Nokero N100 vs the Nokero N200 after…
