The TIX LED Clock from ThinkGeek features “four seperate fields act like the four digits of a digital clock.” Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.
The value of each digit is simply the number of illuminated squares in each field. So any given time of the day may have thousands of different ways of displaying the time

Sleek and stylish, the Sony Mylo 2 is a nifty multimedia device for the road warrior. Featuring a 3.5-inch touchscreen, 1.3-megapixel camera, 1GB of built-in memory, and a host of multimedia/internet functions. Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.
Sony’s Mylo 2 sure is a nice looking device and it also is pretty cool to use but it still lacks a couple important functions to properly rival the iPod Touch or iPhone

On the outside, the “Memory Mouse” may look like your standard pointing device, but open it up, and you’ll find 4GB/8GB of built-in storage. No word yet on pricing or availability. Click here for one more picture.
Memory Mouse has such a compact form, controlled by only four fingers. This design will lessen the contact surface to provide hygienic condition and also make your bag lighter than ever

When we gave you readers a shot at ranting about the Everex gPC, little was left unsaid. If we were betting souls, we’d guess the firm’s über-cheap laptop — affectionately known as the Cloudbook — is about to suffer a similar beating. Based on early reviews, the wannabe Eee PC slayer wasn’t exactly a dream come true, but we just know there’s a good bit of potential here untapped. So, for those of you who’ve parted ways with your $400 in exchange for one of these Cloudbook contraptions, how would you improve upon what’s already there? Clean up the user interface? Add a bit more horsepower under the hood? Or would you just find a way to plug that unsightly gap between the LCD and keyboard? Go ahead, your momma’s not listenin’ — let us know how you really feel.

Well, would you look at that? Oh wait, you can’t — because Dell just removed a teaser tagline from its USA webstore that totally gave away the impending release of a Penryn-based M1530. Earlier today, the “Select My Processor” page seen while building an M1530 showcased the following message: “Intel Core 2 Duo T7250, T7700, and T7800 require a selection of 128MB NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS as your video card. Intel Core 2 Duo T9300, T9500, and T8300 require a selection of 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT as your video card.” Of course, said message has since vanished, but we’d wager that it’s only a matter of days (hours?) before Dell finally gets with the program and gives its 15-incher the same treatment the M1330 and M1730 already received (not to mention the M1530 in other corners of the globe).

Remember back in the old days, when men were men, dogs ran free, and computers were the size of small countries? It was a time when viruses weren’t malicious, rather, they delivered cherry popsicles, unicorns, and nuclear joy-beams. Well, now you can return to a simple time of laughter and love thanks to the Newton Virus and related dongle, created by the design collective Troika. Instead of gnashing your files, spamming your address book, or giving you “The Finger” repeatedly, this virus engages just once, and creates a playful desktop mishap that will undoubtedly inspire the victim to hug the nearest person. Though the virus was coded way back in 2005, it’s now being shown at the MoMA’s Design and the Elastic Mind exhibition. Watch it all go down, literally, in the video after the break.
[Thanks, H&M]

Is that an exodus we smell, or what? Nary 24 hours after Motorola’s chief marketing officer decided to start his weekend early by parting ways with the company, along comes word that the (now-former) president of Motorola’s Mobile Devices business is doing the same. According to a breaking release from Moto, Stu Reed’s departure is “effective immediately,” and Greg Brown, company president and CEO, made mention that the outfit “appreciates [his] many contributions and wishes him the best in the future.” As of now, there’s no word on who’s lined up fill Mr. Reed’s shoes, but it seems the pool of choices could be dwindling.
