We get it. You guys like contests but you like ’em easy. You can’t be bothered to send in photos for free shirts and while that sucks, there’s nothing we can do about it. But maybe this will get you hyped. How about a FREE $130 Jawbone Bluetooth headset? Hmm? You know, the new one with better NoiseAssassin technology and ...

Apparently, NXT STEP blog reader DTAAX’s watch must have broke, which would explain why he designed this LEGO sundial. This DIY finds a new way to tell time the old way. It was built using the LEGO NTX platform (plus a PDA for trigonometric functions) using a slew of light and touch sensors, allowing the sundial to perform like any ...

If a cop pulls you over for nothing more than driving while calling work to let them know you’ll be a little late, don’t piss yourself just yet. Just because you’ve been ticketed for a traffic violation involving cellphone use whilst driving doesn’t mean you’re in the shitter just yet. You might be able to get a free Bluetooth headset ...

The best part? None of these people give their consent to be monitored. You say your boyfriend got the sweats when you asked him how The ...

I’m vocal about how much I hate Best Buy usually. The company tends to price gouge and offer terrible customer service. And Geek Squad? Don’t even get me started. Soon, it is going to find itself doing a long-overdue restructuring that will help it retain customers instead of losing them. In the meantime, check this out: For $9.99, Best Buy ...

While you’re using your umbrella in a downpour, you can take a call with the built-in Bluetooth headset. This way you can talk into your umbrella handle during a downpour with wind blowing all around you. Makes a ton of sense. Tell you ...

Some Japanese kid used his incredible smarts and made himself a real Pac-Man from a Roomba. 448 LED lights scatter the top surface of the robot, emulating Pac-Man’s movements and chomps. He even included the old-school sound effects too! The vacuum can be controlled via Bluetooth, allowing for an impressive wireless display of gaming. Too bad it probably becomes the ...

Messing with LEGOs is good times, even if you’re 53. That’s why some geek in Germany turned a few 2×2 transparent bricks (of a variety of colors) into high speed Bluetooth adapters. On sale in limited quantity, these bricks are priced at about $50 before shipping and handling. They’ll give you that “I’m an 8-year-old!” look and at the same ...

Alliteration aside, the Bluetrek Bizz is looking to blend the world of USB devices and Bluetooth headsets. It’s a Bluetooth headset combined with a USB drive that accepts microSD cards for storage (thus turning it into a microSD card reader as well.) While it may not be as fashionable as other Bluetooth devices, it gets the job done and the ...

If you’re driving any car that’s older than ’96 (like myself), then chances are you’re living in the past and sporting a cassette stereo system. Well, instead of bumping to your Ace of Base mix tape from� 1993, you could always go wireless with the Flexii Bluetooth Cassette Adapter. Who would’ve thought? A cassette tape capable of Bluetooth technology. The ...
