Seriously. The speakers go up to sixty feet away and the remote works through walls. I couldn't ask for more any drunken night of the week. <a href="http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/evolve" rel="nofollow">http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/evolve</a> Can't live without my Evolve Wireless Sound system for my iPod.

I love stuff. And stuff that has cool design is even better. My thing is my double-pane windows that open towards the inside to clean the outside. Two simple plastic clips is all it took to make a cruddy task so much more pleasant! And they're super energy efficient! Yay! I love stuff. And stuff that has cool design is even better.

I agree the Motorola Razr is a resilient piece of equipment. Also not being much of a gun guy myself it is cool to see that my appreciation of the modern sidearm is rooted in the fact that it is a good design. I still like revolvers the Colt revolvers specifically but hey this looks like an interesting book. Wow that is cool. I agree the Motorola Razr is a resilient piece of equipment.

It has served me through art class, hurricanes, bars, the library, lunch, India, all across the United States, three internships, and much more. Sturdy, functional, and eye-pleasing with tripartite coloring, I really don't know how it could improve as a bag. It would take a lot before I gave up my man-purse.

Quinn Mon, 09 Nov 2009 12:22:28 +0000 http://blog.schipul.com/?p=1841#comment-2058 My product I can't live without would have to be the Inova X5 flashlight. It's small, sturdy, bright, and runs for months on a pair of 123 lithium batteries. I wish I had bought this before Hurricane Ike; I didn't get it until about a week after. Honorable mention goes to the Zone Empire laser tag gear, particularly the phaser (gun) design, for being by far the least obnoxious design that requires two-handed operation of the ones I've played. (This is the gear Track 21 has, or at least had as of about a year ago.) Really, if I was naming examples of *bad* laser tag gear design, I'd run out of room.

As a college student, being able to do so much from my dorm room really helps! In an attempt to be original (not) I HAVE to choose my Mac laptop.
