Groovy! That’s the best word to describe this iPod accessory consisting of speakers and LED lights.
The iPulse ZipConnect Speakers with ColorSync LEDs pulses to the music with a brilliant lightshow using red, blue and green LEDs. The speakers should not only look good but should sound good as well as they are made with dual aluminum-cone speakers.
Welcome to the Jukebox of the 21st century!

FREMONT, Calif. — Aug. 16, 2005 — Logitech (SWX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI), creator of the first cordless keyboard-plus-mouse desktop set, and market leader in cordless mice and keyboards, today unveiled a sleek, stylish keyboard-and-mouse-combination that ships with a remote control for the PC. The Logitech® Cordless Desktop® S 510 Media Remote breaks new ground with its minimalist appearance, designed to elegantly blend in with home décor as more of today´s PCs are prominently placed in living areas. The media remote makes it easy for people to experience and share their digital media — pictures, music, and videos — without being tied to the computer.
“Many people today use their PCs to store pictures and music, and even view movies on their flat-panel monitors,� said Denis Pavillard, Logitech´s vice president of product marketing for desktops and keyboards. “The S 510 Media Remote desktop allows people to step back from the computer to share those media files with friends and family. And, it provides many of the benefits of a media PC at a fraction of the cost.�

Scientists hope to use a new mathematical technique to detect red tides, or toxic algae in the ocean, before infected shellfish can make people green. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University are working with various government offices to develop a “spatiotemporal” data mining system for finding and tracking toxic algae blighting North American waters. Doing the manual work for researchers, the system can mine through thousands of satellite images from NASA and oceanographic data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to detect where red tide is affecting human and sea life. That same method could help track known murderers. Or it could be adapted to help detect acts of bioterrorism in the nation’s waterways, Cai said. Satellite imagery from NASA can make visible the chlorophyll concentration in bodies of water, and because bioterrorism can affect those levels, an attack would be apparent.

They may look like ordinary clear cables… but power up your PC and the clear connectors light up! Great for case-modders or just for fun, and they’re very helpful for identifying cables when you’ve got several USB devices connected at a hub. Get organized and look cool at the same time. These come in many colors and lengths.

Here is a completely programmable, customizable name badge with scrolling LED message. The message can be changed “on the fly” using the 3 onboard control buttons. The Scrolling LED Badge is smaller than a credit card and weighs about 1 ounce. It attaches to your shirt using a small magnetic connection on the back of the badge. Up to 6 different messages can be loaded into the badge. Just think of how tech the next conference you hold could be with these badges – no more Sharpies on stickers.

Here’s a special gimzo just for summer: a next-generation water gun. Water pistols have evolved from small hand-held affairs to today’s machine guns on steroids, but this one looks like neither–it more closely resembles a cross between a futuristic spaceport and a bionic arm. The latter is nearest the mark, as it turns out: the “ARM Aquatic Revenge Machine” (get it?) actually Velcro-straps onto the upper arm with a transparent green water tank right where any good superhero’s bicep is normally found. No coincidence: it’s called a “Biceptor,” and the pressure in this tank gets pumped by simply straightening and flexing the arm. Clever. The Biceptor, by the way, is just the pressure tank: The main water supply is a separate 2-liter backpack. This makes it possible to soak an opponent single-handed, leaving the other hand free for, oh, say an umbrella.

The iPod mini, along with a slew of iPod third party add-ons, has taken the world by storm. If you haven’t seen the trademark white earbud headphones around, you obviously have not left your home in quite some time. Even the President has gotten into the act with his own iPod (not a mini though).

A rare sight only five years ago, blue LEDs now seem to be everywhere: on laptops, DVD players, air ionizers and even toothbrushes. And they have some consumers seeing red. Some people find the blue LED “distracting” and “annoying”. While red and green LEDs have been available for decades, blue LEDs only became practical in the 1990s. Novelty value has helped make them a popular choice in modern product design.

The Perfect Club™ Collection is hugely popular because they are the most versatile and easiest to hit clubs ever made. The Perfect Club™ has a 21° loft and replaces your 3 and 4 irons, and 7 wood.
The innovative shorter shaft — combined with unique loft and special weighting — make it much easier to strike the ball solidly and to control your golf shots. How? By positioning you close to the ball, in the middle of your stance — like a short iron — with an athletic set-up and balanced posture. Because of the short shaft, they have more weight in the clubhead than other metal woods; this greater mass enables you to hit the ball father, higher and straighter. Ideal for greenside chipping, too. The Perfect Accuracy™ club is also available.
