If you're looking to add a little flair to your new netbook, French brand be.ez (be easy) has just come out with a line of netbook protection gear. The LArobe Netbook sleeves come in 10-inch and 9-inch sizes to fit a range of computers and you have nine colors to choose from. While not exactly reinventing the wheel, these sleeves do give a little love to your ultra-portable... and, if you pick ...

Other than the Palm Pre, the biggest darling of CES has clearly been the Sony VAIO P Series Lifestyle PC. There has been plenty of coverage of the clutch-purse-like device, but we wanted to boil it down to just what you really need to know. We spent some time with the tiny "don't call it a netbook" from Sony and came away quite impressed with it on the whole. We couldn't truly test any ...

João Sabino a Portuguese designer has finally found a use for all those computer keyboards that land in the trash. He has repurposed 393 discarded keys to cover interesting-looking, though impractical, handbags. The tote style bags are described as fashionable, though we can't really imagine anyone carrying one of these around. That doesn't mean we can't sit back and admire the geeky ...

Looking for something a bit more distinctive to decorate your iPhone than a sports team logo or rubberized case? If so, you're in luck, because Infectious.com just launched its iPhone art store online. The site offers exclusive laptop, car, wall, and now iPhone art created by real artists, many with actual street cred! The 'art' is made of adhesive vinyl that sticks onto the back of your iPhone. ...

It's actually kind of amazing how much dough Microsoft has spent over the past little while in an attempt to polish its image in the minds of the general populace, and as if those "I'm proud to be a PC" and completely incomprehensible Gates / Seinfeld spots weren't enough, the Redmond-based outfit is about to roll out its own clothing line (dubbed "Softwear") this month. And no, we're not ...

Google is certainly not a company satisfied to leave a product well enough alone. Gmail, the already hugely popular free online e-mail service, has seen a number of upgrades in the past few weeks. First, it was integrated text messaging, then came easy to use video chat, and now Google is releasing a series of themes to make your Gmailing experience a little more aesthetically pleasing. Google ...

No clue if HP will be sticking with the Digital Clutch moniker (wouldn't be a bad choice, actually), but one's thing for certain: The computer manufacturer is teaming up with designer Vivienne Tam for a highly decorated netbook. The shot you're looking at above is just about all we have to go on, but obviously this one won't appeal to those who aren't into vivaciousness, vividness and, um, ...

VIZIO makes some top notch budget HDTVs, but it's never been particularly known for sultry good looks. The company is trying to combat its utilitarian image with its new line of Java FHD (full HD) TVs. The new displays ditch VIZIO's traditional black and silver motif for a coppery brown and black scheme that adds a little class to these otherwise mundane displays. Outside of color, the new Java ...

It is official, the old school video game nostalgia thing has gone too far. Giles Deacon, a fashion designer who has previously worked for Louis Vuitton and Ralph Lauren, recently featured 'Pac Man' as a unifying theme during a runway show. What amounts to collection of fairly basic runway fare is augmented by 'Pac Man'-themed prints and absurd ghost-and-Pac-Man-shaped helmets. We're not ...

Christian Siriano is best known for winning the fourth season of pravo TV hit 'Project Runway' and teaching fans everywhere how to discern between those that are "fierce" and a "hot tranny mess" (his catch phrases on the show). Now, Christian has designed a new scarf for the new LG Lotus mobile phone. The Lotus is a small square phone explicitly marketed to a fashion forward crowd, and Mr ...

The California Leash Company, maker of handbags ideal for toting small Malibu dogs, has now expanded its repertoire to include laptop sleeves. This may not be a good thing. The latest creation in its 'Manhattan Beach' line comes in a psychedelic floral print, and it's kind of gross. The colors are, er, vibrant? And they kind of make us wanna vom on our keyboards. The sleeve's bold palette ...

There are plenty of things in this world that you're sure are pretty freakin' cool, and, by extension, make you cool, but, in reality, aren't cool at all (and make you look like a tool). Luckily, Holy Taco put together a list of 10 items that people generally think make them cool, but don't, and some of our favorite pieces of tech made the list, including the iPhone, Bluetooth headsets, 'Guitar ...
