iPom Flower Pot iPod Speaker, Like Bringing Home a Bouquet
Speakal's best-known product is the freakishly cute iPig iPod Speakers, a stunning example of how you can make something that's become so common and boring — iPod speakers — back into a must-have product based on its looks.

I've heard good things about the sound quality from Speakal, and I've plugged my iPods into enough boring white or gray speakers to know that I'd delight at using "flowers" to play my favorite jams each time.

Rainbow, Canvas, Basic: Twelve NYC's Laptop Bags
The more I see fancy laptop bags with extra compartments and crazy prints, the more I tend to prefer a back-to-basics style for myself. I'll continue to look at and love the crazily detailed stuff, but the next bag I buy will probably by something very simple and plain.
The laptop bags from Twelve fit the bill; they're made of heavyweight canvas with cotton webbing handles, and the lines are straight as an arrow with minimal details.
