Here’s a design concept that’s long overdue: it’s a vibrating alarm that you wear on your finger, bypassing all that morning racket for a gentle jostling.

Living up to Amazon Unbox’s name and TiVo’s reputation, the two finally ditched the requirement of a PC to browse and select titles, and introduced a video-download service that exists entirely on the TiVo itself. And don’t worry about storing too many of your purchases on your TiVo’s hard drive: like the Xbox video service, Amazon keeps your purchases on record, and lets you download them whenever you want from its server.

We like our MP3 players small and wafer-thin, and this TEAC MP-600 qualifies as both because it’s about the size of a Triscuit. Even though it’s just 3 inches wide and 9mm thin, it still shows off a 3.5-inch touchscreen up front, and packs an FM tuner along with digital voice recording inside.

The Hands Hands Soap is not just creepy and scares the bejeezus out of me. This soap shaped as baby hands to wash your hands is just wrong at the cosmological level, as cleaning your hands with hands will also clean the hands that cleaned your hands while cleaning your own hands, incurring in a time-space Chen-Diaz Loop Paradox that may break the space-time continuum, starting a chain reaction that will annihilate the Universe faster than you can say “Galactus!” I, for one, I’m glad I don’t have a clue about where to buy them.

Maybe it’s not the simplest, but apart from running on top of a sequoia log, I can’t think of any simpler unicycle than this. $74 will get you the Nimbus Ultimate Wheel with no seat and no chain. However, it comes with lots of free stuff, plus a demo video after the jump. More »
Orvis Stainless Steel Huge Flask. One. Entire. Gallon. Bourbon. Rum. Tequila. Whatever. It won’t even fit into André the Giant pants but if you ask me, it’s totally worth the $200. [Product Page via Oh Gizmo] More »
The Phonofonics II pumps out sound at 55 decibels, directly from your iPod and without using any external power whatsoever, just with its white ceramic horn. How this hornstastic magic happens? Quite simple: this thing has ears.

More than just a glorified tin can on wheels, the Teardrop trailer from Sundance is a little pocket of retro heaven – provided your pockets are deep enough to afford the wonga needed to snap one of these up. With an aluminum exterior and maple interior, the 1,000-lb trailer has a whole heap of things inside – including a double bed.
