Transformers Soundwave MP3 Player ($100)

By no means is this an iPod Killer, but if it had to I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t hesitate to take one out. What I do know, is that this Soundwave MP3 player is just simply a hell a of a lot cooler. Soundwave is a fully working MP3 player that uses SD Cards for music storage and can last 6 hours on a single AA battery. Available in Blue and White.

If you were looking for a different kind of watch, you must check the Vestal Grenade, one of the coolest and most original wrist watches I’ve seen. With its stainless steel case and a band made from leather and canvas, this watch is not for the average person, and it could make pacifists really angry, with its design inspired by a hand grenade.

Logitech Pure-Fi Dream ($250)

I’ve seen iPod alarm clocks before, but never one this well thought out. The Logitech Pure-Fi Dream features motion-activated backlit controls, an auto-adjusting LCD that automatically dims at night, and a motion-sensing snooze alarm that responds to a wave of the hand. Of course, it also features an included remote control, an integrated iPod Dock, great sound, and the assurance that you won’t need to slam your fist into it to make it stop buzzing.

Porsche Cayman S Porsche Design Edition 1 ($80.000)

Not really a gadget but … Porsche and their internal Porsche Design Studio are launching a limited run of Cayman S Porsche Design Edition 1 coupes in a stealth black exterior which pay tribute to both Porsche Design and their original Chronograph 1 timepiece. The sleek black design style continues into the car with black leather and Alcantara upholstery, a black dashboard, and a black three spoke steering wheel. You also receive a special briefcase that includes a Flat Six Chronograph, a pocket knife, sunglasses, pen, and a key ring, all of which are done in black as well. 777 models of the Porsche Design Edition 1 will be built and will be available in January 2008.

Builtby Lamps ($92)

Modern design typically invokes a sense of sleek, clean, and, let’s face it, pristine, untouchable coolness. Inhabit pillows, while thoroughly modern, bring coziness, individuality, and warmth to the mix.
Their array of prints, colors, and sizes guarantees you’ll find a pillow — or a bunch — to suit your style. Mike and Jennifer Tuttle created Inhabit as a fun tool for self expression. With gotta-have-it prints in all the right colors and sizes, the Inhabit range makes it easy to navigate the options and fit them into your lifestyle.

Botanist Flow Cocktail Table ($1.350)

From a single piece of aluminum is great beauty made: each item in the Botanist line from Orange22 starts with one piece of aluminum, cut and bent into shape, then either powdercoated or faced with a wood veneer. Sounds simple, but the results are stunning and evocative, with the Flora model’s cutouts taking first prize for unexpected touches that make a world of difference.
The Botanist End Table can nest over the cocktail table to conceal magazines, remotes, etc.
