From WristWatchReview.com - Got a chance to fondle the Linde Werdelin Biformeter and I have a much better idea of what’s up now. Essentially, this is a really fancy watch with a strange attachment that covers the mechanical part and adds a number of digital functions.

The wristwatch itself costs about $4,000 for a steel model and the digital device costs $1,800. They snap together like Voltron to form the super ninja Biformeter.

Okay, so you’re not a professional soccer player. Does that mean you have to give up the dream altogether? For those who secretly aspire to become players can urinate while playing a game…at the same time? This is a place you are your own goal keeper and are responsible for aiming in the right direction. I’ll leave it to you to decide how many goals you’e aiming for.

What could be worse in the dead of summer, but being confined to your desk without air-conditioning. In case your office loses power on an atrociously steaming-hot August dog-day afternoon and you’re stuck inside, try the new Desktop Air Conditioner.
She’s cute and she only requires a bottle of frozen water, a few batteries or AC power. Now everyone’s got his or her own super-cooler! Oh, and she’s earth friendly too. ($19.99)

TuneBuckle_1_thumb1.jpgYee-Ha! Even if you’re not a cowboy, you can still wear this I-POD Belt. Made from chromed aluminum this mini-player makes it easy to walk down the street without having to fish for your Nano. The belt covers the iPod but conveniently leaves the control panel open so you can click into your next favorite tune without getting the whole device dirty.
The Full Moon belt is available at $70.

For eight quid- pounds for us Americans- you can finally keep up with the crowd clapping and hollering and gulping at the same time. Finally, a drinking hat.
Attach two cans on both sides-or else you may lose balance-stick the straw in your mouth and you’re off. No messy spills-just simple gulps. Don’t think this hat’s just for alcohol. You can attach non-alcoholic beverages too…I wouldn’t suggest any cans of beans though. Sip away!

For all those REEFERs on the beach and on the streets who want to kick back and open a bottle…with their shoe? The one they’re wearing? What?
The only drawback to these new REEF sandals is that you might want to avoid dirty streets. My advice: Wear them on the beach…if it’s clean. Then again, you could let them hang out with the rest of the kitchen gadgets at home…and go barefoot? Or just convert to screw tops. ($39.95 – 43.95)
