There’s iPhone cases in a hundred shapes and sizes, so why not one for car lovers too? Especially since it looks so cool.
Aptly named, the Vroom for iPhone 3G features a distinctive tire track pattern on the back… and it does it all without even requiring a car to run the phone over. Of course, the rubber case isn’t just for show: it also offers protection (pun unintended… I’m not talking about that).
As you’d expect, it’s not only the back that’s scratch-proof: the Vroom also includes full face screen protection.
And seeing it’s not expensive either… why aren’t you off buying it right now?

You should never let your aspirations die, never become jaded with life. Keeping the dream alive is a marvelous and inspirational concept…
Especially when it comes in the form of a snooze button. The person who invented it deserves the gratitute of countless people all over the world. One push ensures you 9 more minutes of peaceful sleep and, depending on how good your reflexes are, even a continunous dreaming session.
The Keep the Dream Alive t-shirt celebrates that. A must for any true connoiseur of the art of sleeping.

You’ve bought all the personal care items you could think of. Short of going to a beauty parlor, there’s nothing else you could try at home: all the face creams, special shampoo, bubble baths filled with minerals… been there, done that.
But… never say never. Did you know there was such thing as a Infra Red Hairbrush? Well, now you do, and apparently it’s a big deal. Beside untangling your pretty locks, this hi-tech brush uses infra red to deliver heat and even massages your scalp.
The two AA batteries will make it heavier than a regular one, but not significantly. The real question is how much does pampering mean for you? If the answer is “a lot”, the (fairly high) price might be worth it. After all, head massages feel so good…

Do you feel that carrying an iPod the old-fashioned way is too complicated? Reach into a pocket, take it out, push buttons, shove it back in…
There’s an easier way to use it and you even get a bonus: +50 lack of fashion sense. You have to provide the belt for the BeatBuckle, but it can hold the iPod Nano (1st and 2nd generation), iPod Video (5th generation 30gb, 60gb, 80gb) and the new iPod Classic… so if you’re a fan of Apple’s mp3 players, you’re set.
But I have to dissapoint you: no, it doesn’t come with the girl.

I can’t count the times I’ve tried to use a makeshift tripod. Balancing the camera on a friend’s shoulder or the back of a chair works sometimes and fails miserably at others.
There’s lots of people in the same situation, so the Bottle Cap Tripod is one of those “why didn’t they think of it earlier?!” products. It turns any regular water bottle into an instant tripod, so you’ll have a quick solution virtually anywhere. Even if you’re in the middle of a desert with no store in sight, you need to have some water with you.
Unless you’re planning to drink from springs and sleep under the stars, in which case a camera wouldn’t be the number one object on the “to take” list.

We decorate our bodies, our clothes, our bags, our iPod, our laptops… our headphones?
Yes, and it’s not the first time someone’s come up with the idea; the Gribbits were featured here a while ago.
But the Bloomingbuds Headphones come with a different approach: their decorations only works with their type of eabuds, so each pack comes with a pair of headphones and two sets of blooms. This is both good and bad. Bad, for the obvious reason, you’re tied to their brand. Good, because the charms fit better than on regular headphones, hence they look better.
If you hurry, you might still be in time for the special offer too: two additional pairs of blooms at check-out. And when you see the selection, you’ll want to get as many as possible, because they’re adorable.

If you have smoker friends who keep coming over and filling your house with smoke, but you don’t want to flat out tell them to stop doing it, you can go for the subtle route… Sort of.
The Coughing Screaming Lung Ashtray isn’t exactly subtle, but it’s better than calling them inconsiderate friends to their face. As long as you don’t mind something this ugly to decorate your living room, it might be effective. When someone places a cigarette in the ashtray, it starts coughing and screaming as if someone had just lit up a lung from the inside.
The good thing? It’s cheap. Once you get rid of their bad habit you can just throw it away.

There’s a lot of funny or geeky t-shirts out there, and many of them are very cool, but it doesn’t mean that’s all there is to casual clothes.
The Winds Of Change t-shirt, for example, offers some food for thought – and some hope. We might be set on screwing up all our natural resources now, but there’s always renewable energy. And even if it won’t happen in our lifetime, our children might change something.
We don’t know if this will prove accurate or not, but some positive thinking never hurt.

Good-ol’ speakers have had many various shapes and sizes along the years, but until now one thing had remained unchanged: they weren’t interactive.
Not any more! The iBoogie Speaker and Dance Machine not only broadcasts your tunes, but also entertains you. The little LED light man on the front panel has over 50 choreographed dance moves and can demonstrate them as your music is played.
Of course, you’d have to be pretty bored to be actually entertained by this, but at least it will light up your desk a bit. And it looks good for staring at when you’re trying to clear your head for that world-changing idea. Ooooh pretty lights…
