I used to own a Sony Walkman that played cassette tapes. It wasn’t as brick-like and huge as the Sony Walkman Scott Campbell swapped with his iPod. It was as big as a book and cassette tapes were absolutely alien technology for Scott. It was three days of using before he figured out it had [...]

We’ve seen some cute MP3 players, but this one from mobiBLU tops even the likes of the Mashimaro Msplayer. The Miffi MP3 player does not quite belong to the mini MP3 player category because it comes with the cradle, which houses the speakers. Mobiblu is also the maker of the UFO A10 MP3 player, so [...]

The phone may not seem too usable for the likes of me and you, but little fashionistas would get a kick out of this. If they’re still too obsessed with their SideKicks (I think they still are), you might convince them by pronouncing the cheap price of the C90+, just $129.99 and the fact that [...]

Alternatively dubbed the G88i, the $120 Imobile phoneV588 unfortunately does not actually contain makeup and even more unfortunate, the mirror does not double as an LCD display. What you have instead is a compct mirror with a 2.6-inch display where the makeup should be. But, then again, you might be tempted by the inlaid diamonds [...]

MashiMaro is the rabbit version of Hello Kitty and it is catching fire in Korea. Known as the “Weird Rabbit,” the character puts a humorous light to toilet habits, perhaps a way to teach children how to have fun during toilet training. Anyway, it’s a merchandizing gold, this MashiMaro so it comes as no surprise someone [...]

This goes to our cheap MP3 player category. Brando’s cow-shaped MP3 player is only $30 USD and they look as cute as hamburgers. The Moo-Cow comes in blue, pink and white. Hope there is yellow and green, but if you like to buy one of the three, you’ll get 4GB of storage, an LED indicator [...]

Looking for a boombox than can play videos too? The sexy-sounding HJ69 is a real sexy beast that’ll impress the hardest core mobile music fan. It’s also relatively light for a boombox at only 340 grams, well within portability range. Specs include a 3.5-inch TFT screen, RMVB and WMV support (among other codecs), Line-in recording, [...]

Found first on Pocket-Lint. This site literally moves. It’s so well-thought-out, it’s almost as tempting as the Palm Pre It would be an exaggerration to say that the site is interactive. It reacts to your clicks but only figuratively. Links and buttons don’t lead you anywhere, except the image of the Palm Pre on the [...]

Most everyone who owns an Apple product loves ‘em, and the iPod Shuffle is no exception. But sometimes gadget love for the MacBook, the iPhone, iPod Touch, iPod Nano doesn’t translate very well to the new iPod Shuffle. What I mean is cases, specifically leather cases for the iPod Shuffle. Seriously, you actually expect a [...]

Yanko Design has contributed many great designs for the portable player market, and I’ve been itching to see at least one of them making it to mass production. The Shrek MP3 player designed by Sang-hoon Lee might just come close. It’s really simple, green with Shrek ears out of which come out the earplugs. It’s [...]
