90210 iPod

ipod-nano-90210

Capitalism will stop at nothing, huh?  CBS, which didn’t even air the show - it was Fox - has an iPod Nano engraved with Brandon, Dilan, Kelly and Brenda from the hit show ‘90210′.

It’s an 8GB Nano and costs $269.  No returns accepted, but who would wanna do such a thing with a piece of nonofficial crap-memorabilia like this!?

Star Wars MP3 Player

star-wars-mp3-player

Looks like there are a few versions of this kicking around.  The Star Wars MP3 player, which features Darth Vader, rocks a 512MB flash drive, a small monochrome screen, rechargeable batteries and USB cable. Sweet!

Available here and here

Ear Buds Designed To Save Your Hearing

purebudsFor everyone one teenager I see another one has a pair of white ear buds jammed in their ears.  I can’t help it. I find it disrespectful to those there with, especially if it’s family.  If it were my kids, they’d get a slapping. Fortunately, I don’t own any, kids that is.  More importantly, though, is that these kids are probably destroying their hearing.  Purebuds, from Amazing Tech Products, claims that they’ve designed a pair of ear buds that will save your ears by not directly shooting the sound directly into the ear canals, something they call ‘reverse sound technology’.  The Purebuds come with three attachments to enhance your music: Surround Sound, Bass Boost and Full Range.

How do they sound?  I have no clue.  How exactly do they work?  I’m not sure.  But some empirical evidence could have these things flying off the store shelves this holiday season.

The Purebuds retail for $50 a pop and are available at the company’s website.

Creative Set To Introduce The Zen Krystal

creative-krystal

Nope, I didn’t spell it wrong.  The marketing geniuses at Creative…well, they went and got all creative.   The Zen Krystal is a 4GB MP3 player, rocks a monochrome screen and similar sport like features to that of the Creative Stone Plus - stopwatch, etc.  It’ll also have a built-in pedometer to track distance jogged, ran or walked.  Expect 10 hours of battery life, a radio, voice recorder and clock.  Accessories you ask?  A pouch, wrist band for exercising, ear buds and of course a USB cable.

No official price or release date.

USB Cassette Deck

Plusdeck EX Cassette to MP3 Converter
Cassette decks are just about equitable to the stone ages, especially with the immersion of high def DVD.  The Plusdeck-EX converts your favorite analog cassette tapes to MP3 via USB.  It can also handle records, radio and more all thanks to its USB sound card, which also allows you to configure the audio up to 7.1 channels.  Not exactly an advance in audio engineering, but a nice option for those analog audio dinosaurs.

Available here for $260.

Watch Sports Touchscreen, Phone, and More

Digital Rise Wrist Watch
The DigitalRist D-RiseTM m600i is quite simply out of control. Not only is it unlocked for use with any SIM card, but it rocks a touchscreen, a 1.3 megapixel camera, mp3 player, voice recorder, Bluetooth, expandable from 60mb to 512mb flash memory, and more. What, no GPS? The only draw back: it only works in Europe and Australia. Price: $320 (350AU)

More info here.

Ripserver: Super Powered Consumer Level Music Ripping Server

Rip Server Black
Ripserver has long been in the prosumer game providing the necessary technology for companies to ‘rip’ massive amounts of music. Today they’ve announced the availability of their consumer level rip station called the ‘Ripserver’. Setup and operation sound super simple. Just toss in a CD and within minutes the Ripserver will copy the music (MP3 or Flac encoding), download artwork, and add the necessary tags. A monitor isn’t mandatory for use - although there is a VGA out - as the Ripserver is intended for shared network use (it’s an NAS or Network Attached Storage) via its Gigabit Ethernet connection, and you’ll need to access its configuration via a web browser for initial up and running. Runs on Linxus so expect a very stable environment and it’s compatible with most popular music networking devices (e.g. Sonos, Slim Devices, Roku, PS3, etc). Available now in black or white, and comes in two sizes: 500GB ($1190) and 1TB ($1390). If that isn’t enough space for you, then add on an external drive via USB.

More info here.

Creative Zen Stone Plus
The Zen Stone and Zen Stone Plus (the plus has a screen) with built-in speakers are now shipping in the UK and US. Announced at CES this year, the Zen Stones are tiny little MP3 players with even tinier speakers on the back. They have up to a 4GB capacity, although the site only allows you to select a 2 gigger, and come in a variety of colors: Blue, Black, Champagne, and Pink. Included in the package is a radio and expect to get about 20 hours of run time.

Available here for $60.

Gear4 BluFM Offers Bluetooth For Your Phone Calls and FM Transmission For Your iPhone

Gear4 BluFM Bluetooth/FM Transmitter
MP3 FM transmitters and Bluetooth speakerphones are nothing new. The combination of two, though, is something that seems to have alluded most manufactures. Gear4s newest offering, the Gear4 BluFM offers just that. Simply plug in your MP3 player and jam out to tunes via the FM transmitter. Pair it with your phone and when there’s an incoming call, it should cut the music and transmit the caller’s voice over the car’s speakers via the FM transmitter. One question remains: will this thing work with an iPhone much like the iSonTalk? The jack probably isn’t compatible with the iPhone’s recessed input so you’ll have to address that with an aftermarket adapter.

Available here for $98.

Toshiba G450 Modem/MP3 Player/Phone

Toshiba G450
The Toshiba G450 is not a mass appeal piece of equipment. Designed primarily as a USB modem (GSM/UTMS), the G450 can also make phone calls and play MP3s, which are displayed on its OLED screen. Unfortunately, the G450’s frequency band probably (2100MHz) won’t support US use anytime soon. No built-in USB plug so you’ll have to drag along a cord.

More pics after the ‘leap’.
