Butterfly iPod Dock is girly and fun
iPod docks are available in so many different styles and designs. I am a big fan of cute and girly things, so the Butterfly iPod Dock catches my attention. They are colorful and pretty and will suit a girl's fluttery lifestyle. Also, it is a Pottery Barn item, so quality won't be an issue. I don't particularly like the green dock it looks too moldy. I love the flowery pattern on the wings of the butterfly it is oh so pretty! This Butterfly iPod dock is quite expensive unfortunately at $100. I'm not sure it even looks worth a price tag that large. The price of cuteness should not be so high!

Also, I'm sure the mermaids will protect your make up from annoying sisters and roommates! The bag has a PVC exterior and a zip with a lovely seashell closure. This Mermaid's bag can be purchased from Amazon for $18.

Face shaping tools hit the shelves in Japan and world wide too
Japanese being the perfectionists, always have a source for assembling more and reasons to amplify their customer base. Their obsession with miniature objects and miniature human frames has led to new developments in technology. The latest ones we got our hands on are two products that claim to reshape your face. Kogao Meiku Beruto (small face belt) helps you to get a slimmer cheek, strain skin or get rid of a double chin. According to the manufacturer, the face will become smaller or slimmer just by stringing the belt around the head when you're sleeping or relaxing.
Sony Ericsson T-280 and W-595 rolled out in two new colors
Sony Ericsson, the trendsetter in mobiles has dished out new colors in the already existing models, "T-280" & "W-595". The T-280 is available in two colors, "Blossom Pink" and "Firmanent Blue". The two new editions are sure to woo the younger crowd. The W-595 from Sony Ericsson's Walkman series is my personal favorite. Firstly because it's got real suave features and secondly as it's out in a wide range of colors like Blue, White-Maroon, gray-cyan, Black-Gold, Black-Blue and Black-Maroon. The price range is still intact at $550 & $330 and you can grab it from Buywalstore or slotzstore.
d30 fabric attempts to make bruises and wounds a thing of the past
It seems with Richard Palmer's flexible rubber-like pads you can gain super hero like status...almost. Apparently, these pads instantly harden from a gel-like liquid into a protective shield upon impact. Richard agrees that protective gear makes people indulge in unnecessary risks, but not too many as d3o's lack of bulk creates a different psychological effect. "You don't feel like RoboCop; you feel like Spider Man," Palmer said. "You feel confident, but you don't feel invincible." But give this is a bunch of stupid or drunk teenagers and the line between confident and invincible will be instantly blurred. However, if monitored well and used wisely, this can be a sensation. This is obvious from the fact that d30 is making its way into professional sports and high-end gear that mountain bikers, skiers, snowboarders and stuntmen. Quicksilver has been quick to tap into this market and is already making a wool hat for skiers and snowboarders with D30 in it.
Super Kid USB 4-Port Hub is fun and convenient
I've been wanting a USB hub for quite some time. My measly notebook has only 3 to offer and I kind of need more than that. But all the ones I've looked at are so dull and boring. I'll do without a few ports, but never touch anything that looks incredibly plain like most USB hubs. That is when I came across the Super Kid USB 4-Port Hub that looks extremely original. You get to hook up your USB devices to his hands and feet. It makes the kid look clumsy, carefree and playful. These ports are all flexible, so the problem of extra large connector designs getting in the way of each other doesn't exist. I like this and might settle on getting it.
Hot Lips Ring blows a kiss worth $2,398
There's not much you can say about a ring that resembles a pair of puckered up hot lips ready to blow a kiss. It is a bit too sexy, sassy and something I would never wear. A little too trashy for my choice! Also, I'm no teenybopper anymore, so such loud pieces of jewelry just make me gag. I admit I have my t-shirt of the Rolling Stones 40 licks, but hey those lips look way cooler. The hot lips ring is made out of sterling silver and enamel. If I had to take a pick out of the three colors, my vote would go with the pink lips.

California bans texting while driving
We know that talking on your mobile phone while driving is dangerous business, but everyone seems to have overlooked that texting can be just as hazardous. Everyone except California and Arnold Schwarzenegger that is. On Wednesday, he signed a bill and made it into a law that bans texting while driving. Arnie has always lived on the edge in reel life, but it seems he pays a lot of attention to safety in real life. According to SFGate, the bill SB28 will ban texting while driving and forces drivers to keep their "hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road," said Schwarzenegger in a written statement. Other states that are also following this law are Louisiana, Minnesota, New Jersey, Connecticut and Washington. I'm sure the cell phone service providers are not very happy, this will lead to a slight cut in their profit!

Sony announces VAIO CR / SR bundles as a support to breast cancer research

One of them is called Cosmopolitan Pink VAIO CR pack and it includes a 14.1-inch LCD, 1.3-megapixel camera, Core 2 Duo CPU, Bluetooth, a built-in DVD burner and a matching case / mouse.

Hello Kitty MP3 Player with changing face plates
It's Hello Kitty time again. A Hello Kitty Digital MP3 Player with three changing face plates sounds good to you? It does to me. It might be for ages 7 to 14 and I might be just a little over that age group, but this product by Sakar still poses infinite appeal to me. As far as the weight goes, its extremely light at less than an ounce. It is made out of light weight durable and sturdy plastic. It can hold only 1GB worth of music, but I'm not complaining. The looks make up for it. The headphones included are pink and super girly as expected. But they don't provide the best sound, so you might be better off by adding your own. Since it is targeted towards kids, it is extremely simple to use. Very straightforward functions, no complications. The main glitch is that changing the face plates is quite a chore. It involves a lot of tugging. Also, using an AAA battery is a pain, you know how quick they empty. Kids can store files for homework on the player which is a redeeming factor.
