UBoard Desk Shelf: Love It or Leave It?
I just spotted this shelf over on CrunchGear, and I must admit, I love it. The UBoard USB board and shelf ($50) features a glass top and three USB ports on its side. There's even a cup holder that attaches to the side!
Finally! An Absolutely Brilliant iPhone Case
I am beyond excited about this case that I just discovered on Chip Chick. I have long complained that although my iPhone has an excellent camera that takes great photos, it's useless in less-than-direct light. Now, finally, a solution.
Hello Lova: Sprint's New BlackBerry Curve 8530 in Royal Purple
I've seen pink BlackBerrys, gold BlackBerrys, white BlackBerrys, red BlackBerrys and then all of the standard-colored BlackBerrys, but royal purple? This is a delightful treat. The new BlackBerry Curve 8530 should be coming to Sprint some time this month, but we still don't know specifics about price (Verizon is charging $100 after a mail-in rebate, so you can expect something comparable).
A Sneak Peek of Mulberry's Accessory Collection For Apple
Yesterday at the Mulberry Store in London, England, stars came out to set sight on the British fashion brand's latest accessory line, which consists of laptop bags, sleeves, mini messengers, and iPhone/iPod Touch cases. FabSugar UK admits that this is a good partnership between the two companies and I'd have to agree with her.

Plug Into This Cute Robot Power Strip
I love it when someone takes a boring household item that we all need — like a power strip — and turns it into something fun. Case in point: the Electric Man power strip from Urban Outfitters. This cute robot-shaped power strip has four grounded outlets — one on each of the little guy's appendages.
Retro Chic: 13 Gorgeous Vintage Typewriters
I love vintage geek gadgets almost as much as I love my brand new tech goodies. From typewriters to Polaroid cameras, these retro goodies are as stunning as they once were useful. My laptop is great and I appreciate it completely, but there is something so dreamy and romantic about typing on an old-fashioned typewriter.

Only 30,000 of these limited-edition Beatles USB drives will be made, and are expected to be released in North America on Dec. 8. For $280, the 16GB drive contains the entire Beatles catalog, plus extras like videos, album art, and photos.
iPhone App You Need Now: Black Friday
In case you missed it, it's November, which means Thanksgiving is right around the corner, Christmas will soon arrive and before you can shout "Happy New Year," it'll be 2010. Not to put the pressure on you, but November doesn't just mean turkey and stuffing — it means Black Friday. I predict that this year, good deals and sales will be more important than ever to get people in the stores to shop for gifts, so be on top of it all with the Dealnews Black Friday app.

When the weather starts getting cooler, and you start paying attention to gift guide suggestions, then you know the holidays are quickly approaching! It's about that time of the year for me, when I can't help but want to buy things that are festive and get me into the holiday spirit. These new Solo FX Special Edition Cases ($35) from iSkin might not be green and red, but they are glitzy and certainly fall into the category of "essential holiday accessories."
