Simple Metal Coat Rack
For some reason I’m always on the lookout for nice coat rack designs. The metal coat rack from momantai is quite nice (though their site is blah) - it’s listed as a towel rack.

M-AUDIO X-Session Pro
The M-AUDIO X-Session Pro is a MIDI controller for the digital DJ who doesn’t want to shell our the big bucks for an Allen & Heath monster, It features the standard DJ mixer controls as well as the pitch sliders to get your beats synced perfectly. At $130 it seems like a steal, though I’d have to try it in person to see if it feel too much like a toy.

Speck MacBook Pro Hard Case
Speck Products has come out with a MacBook Pro Hard Case for the 15″ model. It looks to be super low-profile, and comes in crystal clear and sexy red. Extra scratch protection is always good.

Space Invaders / Rubik’s Cube Skate Decks
Space Invader’s / Rubik’s Cube Skateboard Decks from mekanism are very retro and cool. Look like one-offs, kinda of weird how the tiles go off the edge of the deck … but whatevas!

DaysAgo, Reminder Gadget
Can’t remember how long ago you opened that bottle o’ sauce? Now you can stick the nifty DaysAgo gadget on stuff and it lets you know how many days have gone by since you activated it. Useful and Re-usable, but it could do it a redesign, it’s kinda ugz lookin.

Urban Gnomes
The urban gnome may not be as colorful as your typical garden gnome, but sure does pack a more contemporary style punch. Actually, he doesn’t even resemble a gnome much. More of a blob. But he looks perfect for fans of vinyl toys and such and such.

Bag Of Holding
Gizmodo puts it perfectly:
Don’t be fooled by this four or five slot bag, it can hold much more than four potions or your epic fire-resist gear. This bag will conveniently hold all of your goods but disappear on your body while wandering throughout the barren lands killing Wild Boars. This Bag of Holding will set you back 27.99 gold pieces at the nearest vendor or at the auction house.
Now go forth, artisan. Roll 1D0 for your chance of getting a girlfriend with this Bag of Holding.

SteamPunk Lobster Tank
I first saw CrabFu’s steam machines at a robot expo. He makes steam powered vehicles that are not only technically amazing, but also look totally slick. Makes me want to go watch SteamBoy again!

kontrol dj: midi controller
The kontrol dj midi controller looks like a really sweet piece of kit for anyone into using digital mixing software such as Traktor, but aren’t using the Finalscratch system. It’s super clean, reviews indicate it’s quite robust, and has a nice DJ friendly layout. Check out this user’s video demo. The only downside is it seems to be only available in Europe.

(not Smorkin’) Labbit
“Much healthier than his smorkin’ cousins, this non-smorkin’ 5 inch counterpart has been simply dubbed “Labbit.” Rotocast in pure white soft vinyl with bright innocent eyes, each one comes with 4 different accessories to interchange - a banana, pipe, lollipop, ice cream cone, mustache and much more!”
