This R2-D2 vacuum cleaner from Taito is perfect for picking up those bits of orange Cheeto dust you left all over your desktop.

The tiny handheld Artoo gets his power from your computer’s USB port and probably provides just enough suction to clean up equally tiny bits of dirt and…

Sometimes I feel like the horrible battery life on my iPhone is some sort of cruel joke Steve Jobs has played on me personally. Play games for 45 minutes and you had better be close to an outlet if you want to make any phone calls.

Thankfully, MiLi has announced…

This amazingly small pinhole camera was created by Francesco Capponi. As you can see, this camera is actually so small that it can fit on your thumb.

Francesco calls this his Mini Lomo Pinhole, and although it really isn’t a Lomo, it’s incredibly small and cute, and this tiny pinhole…

In a week that’s been filled with stories of Apple’s smartphone leaks, I guess Dell got a little jealous and let some photos slip out of their own new mobile handset.

The Dell Thunder looks pretty slick from these early pics the guys over at Engadget managed to get their…

What you’re looking at is the millionth Xbox 360 to be sold in Australia and New Zealand, and it’s going to be auctioned off for charity.

The customized Xbox 360 was created by Richard Taylor and the Weta Workshop. It features a miniature Master Chief blowing a hole through the…

I have said before that I don’t wear watches. If I were a billionaire and could just throw away money on cool stuff that I don’t really need, I would buy this new Devon Tread 1 watch.

This thing has a clear polycarbonate case that is supposedly bulletproof. The coolness…
