openmoko - Neo FreeRunner
Smart Funny Useful
Updated Jul 24, 2008
I'm sick of my treo crashing. The OpenMoko platoform is based on linux.
I can't type fast enough on the iPhone's on-screen keyboard. The OpenMoko phone supports Bluetooth, so I assume it will accept input from a HID keyboard.
I need a wi-fi mp3 player for the bedroom. Perhaps the music player the community is planning to build will work.

Second Edition Hardy Heron Mens T-shirt
Smart Funny (1) Useful
Updated Jul 3, 2008
I just learned that my chocolate hardy heron t-shirt is from a limited-edition line of just 500. So, after enjoying the appreciative stares of Southern California today (I already got two compliments from real girls!), I plan to place it in a hermetically-sealed, lead-lined, farraday cage pyramid to preserve it forever.
But I just may purchase a few of these sand-colored second-edition shirts for everyday use.

It's a linux phone that seems to have all the functionality of the treo. And they claim it will support Google Android. But it seems a little vaporous. (via productwiki.com)

UT3 is shipping! Unfortunately, the newest PC graphics card I have access to is about two years old. So I'm gonna have to slum it on the PS3. When the linux client comes out, though, I'm probably gonna have to invest a million dollars in the latest and greatest nvidia card. Sigh.

GOMBOC
Smart (1) Funny Useful
Updated Dec 11, 2007
The gomboc is a mathematical shape discovered recently that always ends up right-side up. What makes it different from an egg? I'm not sure; you'll have to ask the mathematicians. But if you can read Polish (?), you can purchase your very own gomboc for 1000 Euros. A small price to pay for self-righteousness. (via New York Times Magazine)

I love physical problem puzzles. Many of the puzzles you find in stores are rehashed classics. But these look fresh.

I bought this (the "Game of the Year" edition, which includes some expansion packs) at the mall yesterday, because the professional reviewers gave it such accolades.
I spent the first hour tweaking the formidable array of facial parameters to make an elf that looks like me. Now I've only just begun the gameplay and, so far, I'm enjoying the expansive freedom of the game.

This drop-in replacement for your laptop's hard drive represents the future of laptops. It's low-power, runs cool and quiet, and is much more shock-resistant than a traditional hard drive.
I just can't decide whether to buy one of these and add it to my existing laptop or wait a few months for the price to decline by 50% and buy it with an entirely new laptop.
I predict this is going to be THE laptop feature of 2008. (via jthurkettle)

I usually hate t-shirts with corporate logos. I mean shouldn't they pay ME to wear their billboard around town? But, in this case, the logo is obscure enough and the design cool enough that I'm gonna place the order. I'll update this recommendation when I receive it.
Now the only question is: Does this go on the fashion list or the geek list? Both, I guess.

Zonbu Zonbox
Updated Aug 31, 2007
The Zonbox is a small, silent computer. It's made to according to strict standards that protect your local environment from heavy metals and it uses just a trickle of power. It's intended to be "hassle-free". You just plug it in and use it. They can even take care of backups for you (for a monthly service charge). (via linuxdevices.com)
