Are you bored with your old stereo? Fed up with the overwhelmingly confusing plethora of ugly looking internet radio stations? Ever thought about using a rabbit instead? Okay, so you probably haven't, but Nabaztag is a wifi rabbit that acts as a messenger and alerts you to everything that's going on in your online world and now it even works with your online radio.
The little bunny has just one wire, for electrical power, but it is constantly scrutinizing the net to provide the services you have requested, accomplish the missions you have assigned, give you real-time info, transmit any messages your friends have sent you. Now, you can pick up your friendly, sexy Nabaztag/tag, say, "Radio," and out pops some streaming NPR radio for your listening pleasure. Maybe it's the pretty package, but it was love at first sight for me.
When using the rabbit you program it to pay attention to your e-mail, favorite websites, local weather and so on, and it lights up, shakes its ears and sings or talks to get your attention. It stays connected to the internet via WiFi, so you can place it anywhere in your home or office. For a gallery of adorable rabbit images, read more

Jyngle is a mobile and online messaging service that helps you easily share information with groups of people. You can send voice or text messages to entire groups, without calling or text messaging each individual person. Jyngle was launched in 2006 to expand social networking options using phone, SMS and Internet, and to make it easier for people to send out group messages, invite friends to events and remind our coworkers of meetings (among other things). Users can create, send and receive mass messages via the Web interface or their cell phones, even if they don't have a BlackBerry or PDA.
The goal of the creators is to "bring social networks back to the real world through an essential, on-the-go lifeline: your phone." I say it's all the freedom of a handheld, without having one. To learn how to post your favorite sites to the Website of the Day group, read more
Sony Ericsson's special silver and black versions of the K800 and K790 Cyber-shot camera phone took center screen in Casino Royale and if it means being one step closer to Bond man Daniel Craig I don't know how anyone could resist them.
The exclusive camera phones, which were available for a limited period of three months, are highly capable mobile phones that also provide a 3.2 Megapixel camera with Autofocus, Xenon Flash for lowlight conditions and BestPic, which allows the user to take nine pictures of a moving object simultaneously and choose to keep the best shot. It also allows high speed 3G data transfer then allows the user to share images easily and instantly so you can share them with friends, colleagues - or even MI6 – as you take their picture.
Since releasing the first model, Sony Ericsson has come out with newer versions of the phone so if you really want one you still have a chance. For an up-close look at the phone read more

My friend is one of those girls who always has her camera in your face- especially when it's someone's birthday. To my dismay, she manages to lug around her ginormous old school 35mm manual cam as she refuses to make the leap to a digital (I know, I know)! It's time for us to find her the perfect birthday party cam so she can trade in her big Kodak for a cool chic model. If you find some great bday party cams, bookmark your findings on TeamSugar in the Geek Gear group with the tag "Birthday Party Camera." I'll do a round-up of all the ones I think she'll like and you can help me choose the final one!
