OQO uPC by Josh Rubin
The OQO Model 01 ultra personal computer (uPC) is a fully-functional Windows XP computer. The OQO has a 1GHz processor, a 20GB hard drive, 256MB of RAM, a color transflective display, and integrated wireless, as well as Fire Wire and USB ports. What makes this thing more exciting than other Windows devices is the size and style. It packs all that functionality into a super compact and somewhat stylish package. Skinning the Windows interface to look and feel like a Mac would almost make me want one of these.
Here's a video of it in action.
Thanks, Pete!

Apple Mighty Mouse
Aside from a mobile phone, there isn't anything I've waited longer for Apple to make. The Mighty Mouse is a programmable 5 button mouse with a scroll ball instead of a scroll wheel. The ball allows for vertical and horizontal scrolling as well as clicking. The shell design is clean and distinctively Apple, with its cleanliness afforded by the fact that the left and...
