All you Elvis fans in the house take no offence ‘cause I’m a fan of the man himself, but the yellow canine we have here looks remarkably like our idol himself. Just that this guy’s a wee bit more useful when it comes to holding our pens rather than writing tear-provoking love songs. Christened as the Elvis Dog Pal, this guy has enough room in his doggy mouth to hold up a pen, just that it appears like its involuntarily stuffed into his mouth and keeping him from singing. (Don’t as me, I’m still wondering why). The way this fellow clings onto his catch, there’s little scope of us having the common frustrations of missing pens when we need them most. The jaws clasp around any object small enough to fit between them and won’t release it until you pinch his cape and ask him to release it. Interest dog indeed he is.

What does Jive Turkey sound like? A tavern? A freaky thanksgiving meal? Well, none of these actually. The Jive Turkey is actually a pretty cool looking watch. Tokyoflash has had its stainless steel timepiece all over the place. The face of the watch has a refractive lens system that gives you the illusion of the green LEDs (contained in it) fade into an animated 70’s-style light show creating a falling-into-infinite-space effect. The LEDs aid in providing ability to read the time even at night or at dark places.

As the monster takes to the road, the others will stand and stare in wonder and awe. Pretty dramatic, isn’t it? But the surge of power and agility, the 2008 Hummer H2 invokes the demons in all of us. All empowered by a 6.2L V8 engine, the H2 can also boast of its powerful 393 hp (20% up from the previous rendition). Adding technology to raw power (as usual) we have it that the transmission in this one will be Hydra-Matic six-speed automatic. To enhance air movement, there is a new enlarged lower grille and an all new silver coated lower bumper. All those planning to make a grab at this one, you can exploit the valve timing and a tall overdrive gear features available with this. Other features include an electronic stability control system provides, traction control system, roof rail head curtain side impact airbags for all rows, tire pressure monitoring and safety belt pretension technology.

If you have an eye for mechanical madness, you are surely going to love this. A watch with moving hands is quite ordinary. But have you ever though of watch where the numbers are always in constant motion, that too in a never ending cycle that goes along the theory of relativity “made” by Albert Einstein. You are bound to get hypnotized for such a small detail involving stupid observation. For me the watch seems to be good if I wish to just flaunt it, but I would rather stick to my simpler counterpart for checking the time. . The hands of the watch reflect the actual time of day, but the numbers march to their own drummer. It has a genuine leather band and an accurate Japanese quartz movement.

Holding the Panasonic HDC-SD1 HD Camcorder in your hands is an exquisite experience. That’s the interpretation we get from the guys at Gizmodo. Looks like they enjoyed their hands-on experience. The interface is pretty neatly arranged and all the features are accessible at a thumbs-range. The compact size and handgrip give a solid hold on the camera, but the only grouse seems to be the four-way navigation joystick, which is placed far to the right. After the $200 slash it id priced almost at the range of DVD-based counterpart, the HDC-DX1. Roll over for the specs.

Tell me what this reminds you of… Big rolling eyes, Wagging tail and a bright smile… BINGO! The Kit Cat Clock! The originally electric clock became battery-operated in the late 1980's but has been entertaining families since 1930. The Felix clock is treasured like just another heritable asset and handed over to next generation. More over this, to retain the earned fame and reliability, each Kit Cat Clock is individually tested and examined for proper workmanship.

Anybody who would deny that the idea of studying has not haunted him is lying for sure! Books, other than fictional works, have always put me to sleep but I have only woken up to regret about the same. I guess every nerd would have the secret desire of falling asleep on one of these pillows that looks exactly like a way-thick textbook. All you can do is put this pillow-book on your desk give you mom the false impression of having taken the studies too seriously. And then, when she’s off, you could doze off as well. College libraries would now be “slumber parties”.

The noise shall increase and get ol' gramma's windows crumbling down this time! As Sony cook up more and more gizmos to keep up to the demands of the helpless have-nots all around this tech centered world, we have masterpieces like the Sony GIGA JUKE. Let’s focus on the NAS-50HDE bookshelf system first. This one comes with an 80GB drive to store files from your computer, ripped from CDs, or recorded from radio and analog sources. CDs can be ripped at an amazing 16x speed and you can even tag your tracks accordingly. A 4.3-inch color display can guide you through the process of hearing, playing, ripping, etc. The system can be used as a portable means of entertainment and can be synchronized with your Sony Walkman, Walkman phone, PSP or any other compatible MP3 player for that matter. Next on we have the sleek NAC-HD1E deck. It can do just about everything that the NAS-50HDE attempts, with a few pluses and minuses here and there. Owing to its small size, Sony has had to compromise on the presence of speakers. However, you do get 250GB of storage to exploit.

The ‘Most Expensive’ and the ‘Blinged stuff’ never fail to make it to the Luxurylaunches. How can we miss the most luxurious happenings around the world? As the Jewel Royale Chess Set carries the honor of the ‘Most expensive chess set’, I am so much in awe of this ornamented game that I just cannot make any move. For the gadgets section we have the Million Dollar Notebook by Luvaglio from London. And if you are interested in some rare and antique stuff then the 'World’s Oldest Camera’ is up for auction and is estimated to fetch a whopping 1 million euros! For an avant-garde air travel, take a look at this Rocket Belt that is priced at $250,000. We do have a bit of sad news too in this world of luxurious travel. Renowned comedian Eddie Griffin crashed (beyond repairs) a Ferrari Enzo worth 1.5 million dollars while practicing for a charity race to promote his upcoming film, Redline. And Mr. Simon Steggall, airplane model enthusiast, crashed his 16ft replica of a nuclear bomber - Vickers Valiant worth $30,000. The whole thing just went up….in flames! Lastly some blinged cricket news too as a diamond studded cricket ball worth $68,500 was created to be presented to the best Indian Cricketer of the ongoing World Cup Series at West Indies. Alas, India is out of the series now. I wonder about the fate of the blinged cricket ball.
