Now that the weather is getting much colder for most of us, it’s time to start preparing for those long cold nights.  Well instead of crawling in between some icy bed sheets, you can have it all heated up and ready for you.  This mattress pad is claimed to be the best heated one out there and from looking over the features, it just might be exactly that.

With this you can choose a temperature for one side of the bed and a different one for the other side.  That way you and your significant other can stay plenty comfortable.  It’s also thickly padded and has a 200 thread count cover, not to mention the heated portion of this is practically wireless.  All together making the pad extremely comfortable.  It has dual LCD controls and will automatically shut off after 10 hours, just in case you forget after you get out of bed in the morning.  You can purchase these for anywhere from $59.95 on up to $119.95, just depending on the size you choose.

Actually, my mother has those cassettes, because she’s probably the only person in this millennium that I know that still listens to that format of music. It might take a while before she gets into digital format, but I am ready for that day with the ION Audio Tape Express.

All a user needs to do is connect the Tape Express to the PC via USB, and allow the EZ tape converter software to turn that tape into an MP3 in hardly any time at all.

It is nice of ION audio to construct the Tape Express to resemble a very old-school Sony Walkman. By the way, you can actually use the Tape Express to play your old cassettes next time you are feeling a little old school. Hopefully it has a faster rewind than my old portable tape player.

You should be able to get the ION Audio Tape Express for about $80.

Treadmills and I don’t exactly get along and I imagine I’m not the only one that detests them.  My hatred started after a back injury, the jarring steps you take on a treadmill hurt far more than they help when you’re injured.  Well if my gym had one of these treadmills I wouldn’t have had that problem.  This Anti-Gravity Treadmill makes it feel as if you’re jogging in zero gravity.  That makes it ideal for anyone with an injury that keeps them from jogging.

Although jogging on the moon isn’t exactly a feasible option for most of us, it still seems like a fun idea.  This treadmill is probably the closest the average man will come to that.  Most people with injuries learn to exercise in other ways, like in the pool or my personal choice is an elliptical machine.  If you miss your precious treadmill though, this would allow you to get that experience back.  Sadly when it comes out next month, it’s going to be out of most of our as well as our gym’s price range.  You’ll be able to find the AlterG M300 for $24,500.

Instead of coming out with tons of fancy new models to add to their iHome collection, iHome is just adding a new finish for their old players.  This one to make their various iPod docks appeal to a much younger crowd.  Also a much younger very female bunch.  The ones that still love those tiny plastic Barbie shoes and find Ken’s bright white smile to be absolutely dreamy.  Thankfully they come in a range of sizes and prices to appeal to any parent’s budget.

Having more than one Barbie themed iHome iPod dock to choose from should make things a lot easier.  Although hopefully the girl you’re buying one for won’t grow out of her love of Barbie too fast.  The first choice is the small Barbie iHome Portable Stereo Speaker System that’ll only cost you $19.99.  Then is the Barbie Portable Water Resistant Stereo Sport Case that is priced at $39.99.  The middle sized dock is the Barbie iHome Dual Alarm Clock, set at $49.99.  That last of the bunch is the Barbie iHome Portable Stereo Speaker System for $79.99  all of which can be found through Toys R’ Us.  The nice thing with these is that you could easily read reviews on the original iHome versions of them to find out if these are going to be the right fit.

I had a chance to try it out for myself, and I liked what I tried. The SlimTouch Mini keyboard comes with a Bluetooth USB dongle that is so small…how small is it? It is so small, the box had to have an arrow saying “USB dongle” or a new user would not have been able to find it. Yeah, that joke isn’t very funny, but usually those “how (insert adjective here) is it” jokes usually aren’t.

For those who want to be free of the mouse as well as a wired keyboard, the SlimTouch also includes a GlidePoint touchpad with a convenient scrolling feature.

Adesso boasts that the keys of the SlimTouch have low profile scissor switches for quiet typing, but these keys sounded about as “loud” as the ones on my laptop. Not that the typing of these keys would keep anyone awake, mind you.

The Adesso SlimTouch Bluetooth Keyboard can be purchased at the Adesso site for about $129.99. It requires two AAA batteries for power, and pairs quite easily with computer or even mobile phone.

Usually people do their best to keep their flashlights out of sight.  Be it that they stay out in the garage or the top drawer in the kitchen, they usually stay hidden.  Well if you’re not one that feels the need to keep a flashlight tucked away, you might like these strange pendant lights.  They’re perfect for anyone that is tired of the usual shape lights seem to take.  Of course, getting items with a quirky design always seem to cost a bit more.

These lights come in three different sizes the small that measures 7 inches by 2 inches, medium that is 7.5 inches by 3 inches and finally the large which is 6 inches by 4.5 inches.  Each one has a 12 foot cord, that should be more than enough to accommodate your needs.  The lights also comes with a switch.  Unfortunately you don’t get all three when you buy these.  You just pick one size and get one of those.  No matter which size you choose though, they’ll cost you $42 a piece from Fred Flare.

The Bubo has a hotshoe mount with LED lights, with four tripod mounts. It has a standard 37mm lens that is threaded so you can put other lenses on it, besides the one that the Bubo already comes with. I believe that it also comes with a front-facing microphone.

So what are we looking at, some new way that video bloggers can gain better video footage? I certainly hope so.

By the way, I think I know why they call it the Bubo. Anyone remember the 1981 Ray Harryhausen Greek myth film Clash of the Titans? Yes, Bubo was the name of the mechanical owl that Athena gave to Perseus to aid him on his quest. I guess someone wanted an R2D2 character in their classical Greek movie adaptation.

Anyway, this OWLE has been on quite a quest since its first concept drawing, and the designers won some award for iFund’s “Most Promising Startup”. The Bubo will be available for pre-order tomorrow for $99.95.

It looks like it would be quite a comfortable chair, doesn’t it? Of course, if you are claustrophobic, you probably don’t want it closing you up. There is a picture of this closed mobile cocoon after the jump.

This is the “Media Vehicle”, a virtual reality chair/capsule created by Iwata-Yano Laboratory at the University of Tsukuba. The purpose of the spherical screen is so that the user can be in a virtual reality environment.

There are various uses of this device, and most of them seem plucked from science fiction. I could easily see this being used as some sort of simulator with today’s technology. I’m not certain if we have the technology to create anything more.

I believe the wheels are for it to move around, but I can’t imagine what for. Unless you want to create a virtual bumper car or something.

I can totally see workplaces of the future putting their workers in these things as some sort of distraction-free cubicle. I can also just see them running Windows 17 with hundreds of applications at work inside this cozy habitat. I’m not certain that I want to see this future come to pass, though.

If you’re on the lookout for a gift for a young girl that loves her music, then these little speakers are made just for teen girls.  Of course they’ll work just as well for a female of any age that enjoys her share of pink gadgets.  These speakers are small enough that they’ll be easy to keep on hand whenever you need a little portable music.

These come in 3 different finishes, Multi Dottie, Berkeley and Coco Stripe.  Sadly, you do have to choose only one.  It’d be nice if the finishes were somehow interchangeable since the speaker does have a fairly simplistic design.  In order to keep your speaker up and running it’ll require two AAA batteries, which is a little unusual.  It’s a bit more typical for them to be rechargeable through a USB port, but you could just as easily pop in your own rechargeable AAA batteries.  To purchase one of these speakers it’ll cost you $19 from PB Teen.

Talk about projectors and some of the more notable names will probably pop up during tehe conversation, where we’re pretty sure that Epson is one of them as they are currently the number-one selling projector brand worldwide, and aims to leverage on that position by announcing the PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL projector that has already started shipping to Pro AV dealers. This is no ordinary projectors, since it will boast a high-bright, WUXGA projector that comes in 1,920 x 1,200 native resolution while being accompanied by a super high price tag of $20,499, placing it well out of reach for ordinary home owners (save for the select few who are insanely rich or have just struck the national lottery).

The Epson PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL is touted to be the industry’s only 3LCD WUXGA projector, where it is capable of delivering outstanding image quality, powerful performance and unqualified value which will cater for auditorium venue applications. Meant to work for large venue applications in corporations, education, and houses of worship, the PowerLite Pro Z8000WUNL also holds the distinction of being Epson’s brightest projector to date, full well able to roll out 6,000 lumens color light output and 6,000 lumens white light output, accompanied by other specifications and features including 5,000:1 contrast ratio, an innovative liquid cooling system, durable optical chips and a dual-lamp design which will bring image quality, performance and reliability up another notch.

Some of the features that the projector comes with were meant to reduce the amount of time and money spent on maintenance, lowering the frequency as well. You get easy access to lamps and filters, where it ought to serve you flawlessly if you follow the recommended 10,000-hour filter cleaning schedule. Apart from that, the Z8000WUNL will also boast Epson’s high-aperture 3-chip 3LCD technology for clear and crisp images.
