In 2002, the Japanese company Takara released the Bow-Lingual. Reportedly, this device could tell you if your dog was happy, sad, frustrated, on-guard, assertive, or needy – all based on its bark. In 2003, the company followed up the Bowlingual’s success with the Meowlingual, designed to tell you how your cat was [...]

Oh, to live in Japan and speak Japanese! If I did, I would be able to order and use the Hello Kitty microwave oven from Toshiba. It’s a microwave and an oven, with the oven cooking at 1100W and the microwave cooking at 950/1300W which I think is standard here too. [...]

Hey! How come this feature isn’t everywhere? It’s a camera that lets you send pictures via wifi to its own website. We can all email our little phone pictures, but those are generally pretty low-resolution these days. This camera packs a very respectable 8MP, so you’ll get huge photos uploaded [...]

To me, this little thing is kind of a waste. It’s bigger than an iPod Shuffle, it doesn’t clip onto anything, and it only has 512MB of memory. That’s not nearly enough for most people these days, am I right? But anyway, it’s the MMP8551 audio player from Memorex. I [...]

I don’t know if they have these in Japan, but the United States is having its first-ever Hello Kitty convention: KittyCon 2008! I’ve already recruited a few people to come, and I will definitely be there myself. It’s in Raleigh, NC and it’s about a year away, so you have plenty of time [...]

I’ve never seen one of these before, but apparently it’s a humidifier that you screw onto any bottled water bottle and it humidifies your air! I can’t figure out where to get it, apparently it’s only available in Korea, but GizmoDiva reports that it’s $43. So yeah, I have no idea how [...]

Yay Dell! Thanks to their new Dell Color site, you can find all their pink products in one place. There are currently 64 pink products, not all of them are actually manufactured by Dell (the Nucleus laptop case is pictured at left) but you can at least get them all in one [...]

Unfortunately I missed the poll held by Popgadget about the meaning of pink. The choices were “Pink is…empowering; feminine; demeaning; sexy; a fashion statement; just a color.” Personally I would have voted for “just a color” as you might have guessed from my earlier Garmin Nuvi 200 post. According to the results, [...]

Guess what, Britain? You get a pink product the United States doesn’t get! I’m talking about the Garmin Nuvi 200, a satellite navigation system for your car. I’m not sure how I feel about the product, though. For one thing, there aren’t a lot of pink cars out there, and [...]
