Apple announced on Wednesday a cornucopia of new hardware and software: sleek iPods, a brand new Internet-enabled video streaming device and new versions of its iOS software and iTunes 10.

It's fitting that Nike is the company to come out and patent the design as it was the one and the same that brought us Back to the Future II's Nike "Air Mags." If the compa...

One of my favorite things about living in Japan was the high-tech toilets. Heated seats to eliminate the cold-bottom shock factor and keep your touche toasty in the winter, spray jets to clean you up with minimum fuss, automatically-opening lids and the magical "otohime" ("princess of sound") function that produces flushing noises for the more m...

You’ve got your headphones on, and you hear the greatest song of all time. What do you do? You just chill with it, if that’s the way it affects you. But sometimes a song slides through your headphones that explodes upon you in a way that demands you share it with everyone. What do you wish you had instead, at that point? Speakers. If you’ve g...

Of course, anyone who has...
