If you have a Bang & Olufsen set at home, then it is safe to assume there are at least 7 digits in your bank balance. The screenless BeoSound 2 MP3 player is just the gadget for you. It comes with a custom leather Louis Vuitton case to protect its silver exterior. Your music is transported on a SD card with a maximum capacity of 512MB. Battery life is rated at 10 hours for continuous playback. It looks (and is) out of reach for the working classes, but at least a $100 MP3 player comes with an FM tuner and 1GB memory.

Yuk Yung Technologies unveiled their new PMP at CeBIT 2006 – the Viliv P2 that comes with a T-DMB receiver and navigation functions. The Viliv P2 is powered by an AMD 400MHz processor, runs on Windows CE 5.0, and ships with a 4.3†touch screen and a choice between a 20GB or 30GB HDD. Yet another device that aims to increase the productivity of its executives by packing an entire office in a pocket. We wish more leisure-centric PMPs will be released instead.
The ECS H70 tablet PC espouses the ‘Simply Smart’ philosophy of ECS itself. Powered by an Intel Pentium M ULV 1GHz FSB 400MHz processor, it’s generous 7†WVGA TFT LCD screen offers a crisp, clear display. In addition, it sports a 1.3 megapixel camera, built-in speakers and microphones, a 4-in-1 card reader (these are getting indispensable nowadays), and a high definition audio codec. The H70 is one device that is simple to use and yet smart on features.

We’re not sure we actually know anyone who would use Chillichilly’s Pocket Ashtray, but life in cities would be just that little bit better if smokers paid more attention to where they toss their nasty cigarette butts. No hatin’, just telling it like it is.
