A friend of mine on Plurk asked,
“What’s your take on bluetooth headsets? I wanna go hands-free but don’t want to go around looking like a dweeb. Would you actually walk around wearing bluetooth headsets?”
I know for a fact that a lot of people use bluetooth headsets while driving. But would you actually walk around the streets with a bluetooth headset?
There’s a lot of fashionable bluetooth headsets going around and I could name a few… but talking to yourself while walking would probably give people an impression that you’re looney :P
Or even worse… Bluetooth headset while on a date? (see image above)

LCD Monitors + Sports = Boyfriend’s Ultimate Fantasy (one of the many fantasies, anyway).
I don’t know about you, but my boyfriend is immensely obsessed with buying and owning flatscreen tvs and monitors. I seriously want to bop him on the head with one especially when he’s obsessing about owning one that’s worth a couple of thousand bucks. (WHAT?! You want to spend HOW MUCH?!?!)
But anyway, if you’re looking for a gift idea for your significant other, then you should check out HANNspree’s new collection of LCD monitors.
The sleek 19” LCD monitors are designed in the shape of a baseball, soccer ball and basketball and include genuine leather cladding. The new lineup also features a monitor for the true basketball fan – the 19” wide-screen “HANNs slamma.” It’s just like bringing the hoop inside the home.
Price: $239.99 - $279.99
Where to buy: HANNs Baseball, HANNs Soccer, HANNs Basketball, HANNs Slamma

The idea and concept of Wordlocks totally blew me away when I first heard about it.
For one thing, I think it’s an absolutely BRILLIANT idea! Remembering sensible, coherent words is waaaaay easier than remember a bunch of unrelated, random numbers! I can’t count the number of times I couldn’t open my locker in school (hmm, 10 years ago? Hahaha) because I’ve forgotten the combination! Or how many times I couldn’t open my luggage because I’ve forgotten four measly numerals, haha.
Seriously, why did people only think of this now? :P
Wordlock has three kinds of locks: a bike lock, a padlock and a luggage lock. They all come in different colors, too!
If you want to WIN your own Word Lock, just post a comment and let’s keep the blog conversation rolling!
Three (3) lucky winners will be randomly chosen!
Contest will run starting today until July 25, 2008! Open to US residents ONLY.
If you can’t wait to get your own Word Lock, head on over to the nearest retailers in your area:
- Bed, Bath & Beyond
- ACE
- True Value
- Toy R Us
You can order online, too! [ Wordlock ]
I say, these locks are really great for kids. I mean seriously, do you think a 7 year old kid can remember ‘38479′ (or whatever) as a lock combination? Hahaha.

If you’re bored in the office (if you get a memo, don’t look at me!) and you have nothing else to do, you can try to annoy your officemates and colleagues by sending them emails or instant messages using Flip Text!
Flip Text basically flips your text upside down, haha.
¡buısnɯɐ ʎɹǝʌ ʇnq ‘ʍouʞ ı ’ssǝ1ǝsn
Did you just flip yourself upside-down?
Hahaha.

My sister owns a wallet made of real ostrich leather and every time she takes it out of her bag, I feel a shudder go thru my body.
I mean really, I find anything made with ostrich leather GROSS. You can actually see the skin follicles where the feather used to be. It’s just gross! Haha.
Anyway, this laptop sleeve is made of Italian leather with ostrich embossed printing. So it’s not real ostrich leather, but it looks real nonetheless.
Fits 13″ laptops. Hot or not? It’s eew for me! Haha.
Price: £125.99
Where to buy: 21st Century Diva
Time For A Poll!
Hot Or Not: Blue Ostrich Embossed Leather Laptop Sleeve!

Only 20 units of each will be made. I wonder who on earth could afford these phones. Who even buys them, really?!
Brought to you by Knalihs Anthem, there are 1000 diamonds on the Nokia 8800 and 400 diamonds on the iPhone 3G.
Wow.

So, have you guys gotten your iPhone? Were you one of those people who camped and lined up just for the iPhone?
Anyway, even though I’m a bit late on the news, here’s a couple of links and updates about the iPhone 3G!
I’m excited as to when iPhone will be coming here to the Philippines, but I’m not so sure if I will be camping at Globe centers for a unit. I’ll probably wait a couple of months. I don’t want to experience those horror stories about activation and all those things, haha.

I don’t what is it it about hearts and me today… haha!
Anyway, Le Sportsac has a lot of cute designs for their Technofile laptop bag collection and the one with the heart prints (Hopeless Romantic print) is my first choice!
The one with the Russian Doll (Natasha print) print is a close second.
I’m not so sure which laptops will fit in these bags since their website doesn’t say anything about the dimensions. I mean there’s the usual legth x width x height numbers, but seriously, do I really have to compute for the diagonal length?! Anyway, haha!
If only they ship to the Philippines, I would have sent in my order minutes ago! Baaah :(
Where to buy: Le Sportsac
Price: $98.00

Microsoft has finally announced last June 30, 2008 that they will stop selling the Windows XP Operating system!
I know a lot of us have avoided upgrading Windows Vista like the plague. I, for one, was also iffy about upgrading to Vista when I was still a PC user. I mean hello, how exactly can you convince someone to upgrade to Vista when you hear so much about it’s annoyingly persistent security pop-ups and other horrible things?! Haha!
Tech support for Windows XP however will be available until 2009. And then after that, XP users are on their own!
So how many of you guys out there are still holding on to Windows XP?
