OtterBox iPod Mini Waterproof Case

Otterbox is known for creating waterproof cases for those with active lifestyles (or inactive lifestyles near a pool). Otterbox has an entire line of waterproof cases that will protect your iPod (photo, 20gb, mini, shuffle, nano and video). We’ve choosen to highlight the iPod Mini’s Otterbox as the Gizmo of the Day today.

Unlike any other iPod case we’ve seen (and we’ve seen quite a few!), the Otterbox will allow your iPod to be fully submerged in water without breaking the electronics. The Apple ClickWheel is protected by a thin membrane so you can still control the device even while fully protected in the Otterbox.

Audio/Video, Home Theater, GPS, Miscellaneous, Portable / By /

Commodore 64 The Geeks will visit CES in Vegas early next month so we have been bombarded with meeting requests and new product announcements. One of the more interesting product announcements is from a company called Commodore.

If you’re a geek, you know all about Commodore… yeah, the little company that launched one of the most popular and best selling computers back in 1982 called the Commodore 64. After gobbling up Amiga in 1985, Commodore then released the first multimedia computer called the Amiga 1000. The gaming world owes a debt of gratitude to Commodore’s platforms and games. So what have they done lately?

Plantronics Pulsar 590A - Bluetooth Headphones

A bit more product convergence – audio headphones meets cell phone headset meets Bluetooth wireless capability. The Pulsar 590A from Plantronics does all of this. The best feature has to be that you can listen to music and if a phone call comes in, the headset automatically cuts out the music and chimes to alert you that you have a call. The Pulsar comes with a telescoping microphone, and the right earpiece has call, answer, mute and volumen buttons. The unit also comes with a Bluetooth adapter which has a standard 3.5mm audio plug. The headphones are foldable, come with a travel case and provide 10 hours of listening time on a single charge.

Alienware CE-IV Digital Audio Player

Alienware’s foray into portable entertainment has yielded the stylish black and orange LED CE-IV line of digital audio players. The CE-IV comes in 512MB and 1GB versions. That may be a bit small for some of you, so the CE-IVs take SD/MMC compact flash cards so you can walk around with many libraries of music. They support MP3 and WMA audio formats as well as DRM technology so you can download from the top music sites. The CE-IV is one of the first digital audio players to include SRS WOW HD which allows you to tweak and improve the treble and bass. Hopefully, more audio player vendors will take this tack with more of their products, including but not limited to equalizers as well.
