Retro cell phone handset brings retro style to your cell
I hate cell phones. iPhones, Androids, you name it, I hate ‘em.
Why? It costs me money every time I hear my ringtone. It’s not the minutes, I’ve got unlimited ones. It’s usually my daughter asking for money.
Another reason why I hate cell phones is that it makes it too easy to talk to people. I hate talking to people. In fact, when most people call me, I play a recording of Chewbacca until they hang up. Plus, all of this new 3G, 4G, touchscreen technology mumbo jumbo is impossible to keep up with. And haven’t you heard? If you hold a cell phone to your ear long enough, it will give you cancer.
If I had it my way, I’d go back to the good old days when we had uncomplicated, uncancerous rotary phones.
What’s that? Now there’s a way that I can use my cell phone and still enjoy the comfort of cradling a classic receiver to my ear with the Retro Cell Phone Hansdset from X-Treme Geek?
Now, when someone calls, I just might answer.

bodybuggSP keeps you in shape with bodybugg personal calorie management
I used to treat my body like it was my temple. Then I discovered beer and cheese fries. Then my body was my halfway house.
I used to burn calories in my twenties just by telling a good man-walks-into-a-bar joke, but when the button fly on my favorite pair of Levi’s refused to close, I knew I needed some help with my ever growing gut.
My first move was to sign myself up for a membership at 24 Hour Fitness, so I could work out on my time, during hours that work for me (i.e. 2:45 am after inhaling a sausage lover’s pizza at 2:08 am).
My second move was to hit the 24 Hour Fitness Store online to pick up a bodybuggSP personal calorie management system. It helps me track what I eat and what I burn so I burn more calories than I consume, without all the guesswork.
It rocks my body.

Magic Wand Remote Control helps you magically change channels
The newest Harry Potter movie installment – Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 opens tonight at midnight, and i can’t help thinking how much I’d like to live in Harry Potter’s Wizarding World.
The dude can wear an invisibility cloak.
The dude can drink butterbeer even though he’s under 21.
The dude can levitate objects with a simple “Wingardium leviosa”.
I might not sport a lighting rod scar on my forehead, but now I can be a wizard in the privacy of my own home while operating my HD flat screen television, with the Magic Wand Remote from Hammacher Schlemmer.

iPad Case – House your iPad in style in a sleek leather case
I told myself I wasn’t going to buy an iPad.
I usually refrain from the practice of standing in line for hours and paying hundreds of dollars for the next great device. I still don’t have an iPhone and have heard one too many jokes comparing iPads to feminine hygiene products.
So I told myself, I’m not buying an iPad. Period.
But if I were to buy an iPad (not saying that I am), I would surely accessorize it with this sleek leather iPad Tablet Case from Fossil.
It provides maximum protection against spills.

Mini air purifier – Mini sized purifiers that kill germs and odors in the air
I’m very particular about the air I breathe.
I don’t like people in my face, breathing over my shoulder, coughing near my cubicle and I despise close talkers. It’s even worse when I fly. Whether I’m sitting in the aisle, the center or the window seat, I always get stuck in close proximity to a child with enough snot running down their face to infect everyone flying first class… and the first six rows of coach.
I love to travel, but they won’t even let me bring a full bottle of hand sanitizer onto the plane these days, so what’s an airborne gal to do? Invest in a Mini Air Purifier from TravelSmith.
It makes flying the friendly skies so much friendlier.

Fish Finder Watch – A watch that helps find the fish for you
I keep hearing that there are a lot of fish in the sea.
Oh yeah, well where are they?… Seriously, where are they?
I keep fishing and fishing, catching the same old guppies and minnows that I end up throwing back, when all I want is a shark. A sexy, manly shark.
Am I using the wrong pole? Should I try a smaller pond?
Hopefully this Fish Finder Watch from Hammacher Schlemmer will help me find bigger fish to fry.

Apple Magic Mouse – The first multi-touch mouse from Apple
Do I believe in magic?
Not really, but I do believe in the Apple Magic Mouse.
This smooth, seamless little wireless mouse from MacConnection puts all other mice to shame. Taking a cue from the revolutionary iPhone and the iTouch, its state-of-the-art Multi-Touch surface allows you to use gestures to swipe through photos and scroll down web pages. Pretty sweet if I do say so myself, and the entire mouse is the button so you can click anywhere.
I’m telling you, magical.

Recycled speakers – Mini cube speakers for Fold and Play recycled sound
I just returned from a recent trip to New York City. There is no place on Earth, quite like the Big Apple. I reveled in it all. The neon lights so bright on Broadway, the legendary NY hotdogs (hold the sauerkraut), the stupendous skyscrapers, the grittiness of the subways and the overall inner rhythms of the city that never sleeps.
Now I can listen to the sweet sounds of the city (i.e. Jay-Z’s Empire State of Mind on repeat) while enjoying New York’s beloved cityscape with these OrigAudio Fold & Play Recycled Speakers from Tilly’s…
…because the only thing I HEART more than music, is NY.

Vibrating alarm wrist watch – Vibrates for a silent alarm on your wrist
I have a long list of things I need to be reminded of every day.
Call him, call her. Pick up this, drop off that. Withdraw, deposit, eat, clean…wash, rinse, repeat. I’m so busy that if I don’t get in my daily reminders, I will forget to perform even the simplest tasks (i.e. bathroom breaks).
The last thing I want to do is disrupt the entire office with my twenty-something alarms going off every hour, which is why my Vibrating Alarm Wrist Watch from SoundBytes is a godsend. It’s like a silent personal assistant who nudges me whenever I need to be nudged.
In fact, I’m vibrating right now. Time to feed the cat.

Personal Navigation Devices - Personal GPS Vocal Navigation System from Kapsys
I have always been considered directionally impaired. Whether I’m on wheels or on foot, headed right, left, southeast or north by northwest, I’m usually found a few miles shy of my ultimate destination on the phone with my Mom or asking a gas station attendant for directions.
Now I can keep from getting lost while locating the best routes whether I’m driving, walking, biking or segwaying with my Kapten Personal GPS Voice Navigation Device from ILA.
This innovative mobile navigation system also allows me to chat on the phone thanks to the hi-tech Bluetooth technology, listen to my favorite Mp3 tunes or FM radio station and find my way home when I’m a half hour away from being reported as a missing person.

Infrared portable sauna for a personal sauna bath, any time you need it
Sometimes it’s good to sweat things out.
A bad economy, an argument with your significant other, Sweatin’ to the Oldies with Richard Simmons. Most deoderants and antipersperants will warn you that it’s never good to let them see you sweat, but I disagree. A little sweat never hurt anyone.
In fact, sweating has a long list of health benefits. It can help your pores open up, excrete toxins and other impurities from your blood, relieve aching muscles, and even help you drop a few unwanted pounds.
I’m all for saunas, but I hate pricey gym memberships and I hate sweating in a room full of naked men even more, which is why I’m sweating myself up with my very own Infrared Portable Sauna from Promolife.
It’s totally worth my blood, sweat and tears.
