TileToy by Ami Kealoha
Created by Finnish media artist and designer Tuomo Tammenpää along with Brit mobile game developer Daniel Blackburn, TileToy is a modular, re-programmable LED toy. A sleek white plastic box encases the LED components and each magnetic cube communicates wirelessly, enabling a wide variety of games - from anagrams to arithmetic problems - that use numbers, letters, or shapes. Still in prototype stage, inventors plan to keep TileToy hardware and code open-source and have been conducting DIY workshops.

It only needs a projection distance of about 10 feet, so it's quite practical, even in relatively confined quarters. Weighing in at less than three pounds, with a price tag just under $230 and featuring adjustable angles, the home planetarium is perfect...

Shure E Series Gaming Edition
We've been listening to music on our Shure E4c headphones since they came out last year and were excited to see the new Gaming Edition. These are technologically the same as the E Series currently available, but they are black (to match your gaming gear or your new iPod) and they have a shorter cord. The Gaming Edition will include the E2g, E3g and...
