I’m sure many of you out there have seen pictures of the pimped out Sidekicks that Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton carry around. Until now I just assumed that they were custom made for the divas themselves. Turns out that us ordinary folk can pimp out our gadgets as well. NYCPeach.com will glammerize your ipod, cell phone or digital camera. They also customize other gadgets as well. As expected, their prices are steep - $350 for a mini ipod, without the Mini Ipod included ofcourse. I guess I shouldn’t be suprised, as always - diva prices for diva items.

AboutGeeks.com GeekChic columnist has a post about some sparkly and very girly cell phones that are available now. She’s got the Baby Phat phat phone and some other pastel phones that will satisfy the girly girl in all of us… err, well atleast in some of us.
For a week now I’ve had the pleasure of using the Dell 2500fpw 20 inch LCD Widescreen Monitor. For months I had been postponing buying it because of the price. Dell priced it at a reasonable $799 but that was more than I was willing to spend for something I didn’t exactly need. These past 2 weeks dell has had great coupons and sales so I was able to get it for $507 which is a great price for a 20inch display. No doubt, this display is on sale because of the upcoming 24 Inch widescreen display that Dell recently announced. Either way, I am really happy with display, and it was worth every penny. The colors are rich and clear and it’s really nice having a widescreen display when it comes to using programs like photoshop, and it’s also great for having lots of windows and tabs open at once. Also, when playing games like the Sims 2 the game comes out vivid and crisp.
The physical design of the monitor is nice as well, it’s very slim and professional looking. Interestingly enough it comes with 4 usb ports built into it. The only thing i can complain about this beauty is that it can be too bright, so bright that it’ll make your eyes tear. But you can easily lower the contrast and brightness settings so this really is not a valid complaint. Mikhailtech forums has a good review of the monitor with pictures.
If your interested in getting the 2500fpw when it’s on sale, bookmark Ben’s Bargains, it’s a great site...

I’m not the biggest fan of Sync Magazine because they tend to have womanizing comments in every issue. Putting that aside they had some interesting stuff in their recent Febuary/March issue. Here is a survey they took of women reguarding technology and gadgets. Some good laughs here.
Dell just announced two new powerful desktop replacement laptops. The first is the Dell XPS Gen 2, a gamers dream laptop with great video card options and a 17 inch widescreen. Pricing starts at $2,749 USD. However, it is quite masculine looking and isn’t going to attract many ladies with its design. Next is the Inspiron 9300 which also has a 17inch widescreen and can …
Artificial Life Inc. of Hong Kong has developed new software for your cell phone which allows you to build a relationship with a virtual boyfriend or girlfriend. Your new date will be able to interact with you via text messages and streaming video.

Vonage, Packet8, Broadvoice, AT&T Call Vantage, and other VOIP companies are sprouting up everywhere. They promise great packages - $25 for unlimited calling from Vonage enticed me into trying them. I bought the Adapter for my high speed Cable connection and hooked everything up. Unfortunately, I was horribly disappointed with their service, it didn’t work half of the time and the customer service was a …
Yesterday’s rumor was that the new ipods that’d be announced today would all have color screens. Today that rumor proved false, and I’m a bit dissapointed. But their new line up isn’t half bad. They now have a new ipod mini with 6 gigs for $249 and they extended the battery life on it to 18 hours. The old ipod mini with 4 gigs is …
Today’s New York Times has an article on the impact of women’s Fashion on Technology. It discusses how designers are creating stylish laptop, mp3 and other gadget cases for the modern woman. It also talks about the role of fashion in designing current electronics, and how tech companies are trying to attract the female audience. For example - the ipod mini that comes in pastel …
Remember those days when computers were the size of your garage? Hell, no! It’s hard to imagine that the first computers were so large and did so little. The average cell phone nowadays is more advanced then those first mammoth machines. But we gotta give’em credit, they were the first and they started the technological revolution which changed the world as we knew it. Christie’s …
ThinkGeek.com has a bunch of Dilbertesque cubicle playsets. Not to leave us nerdy girls out, they have a female figure called Ann. She comes with her own cubicle office. Notice that her screen has solitaire on it, you never see chicks playing that at work!
2 weeks ago I downloaded Firefox, a free Internet browser. I haven’t gone back to Internet explorer since then. Sites load up much faster than they do in Microsoft Internet explorer 6.0 and I love the tabbed interface that Firefox sports. I’ve used Netscape and Opera in the past, they both have tabbed interfaces as well, and i thought they were ok but somehow i …
Previously I posted about lady’s laptop cases. But what about Ipod cases for women? I’m so sick of seeing those black leather cases on everyone’s ipod. We need color! Not that any of these cases are made specifically for women…their for guys too. Anyway here are some ipod cases with flare.
Pacific Designs I love the stripe!
Noreve Cases A white case! Practical no, pretty yes.
Sena Cases …
I didn’t expect this to happen so soon, so now i’m just giddy with excitement. Engadget posted that the hw6500 iPAQ Mobile Messenger has been approved by the FCC. This hopefully means that the 6500 relase date isn’t too far away. Well it might still take a while - but atleast it’s on its way. I love my I-mate PDA2k but this one is a …
Graphics designers and photo enthusiasts love Epson wide format printers because their printing quality is outstanding. Today Epson UK announced a new model - the R1800 which prints high quality photos upto 13×19 inches. So what exactly does this new model do that separates itself from other previous wide format epson printers? This one has the ability to print directly onto dvds and cds. Now …
We’re all accustomed to funky designs from Nokia, so this latest model really threw me off! They obviously ripped off Samsung with this design. Don’t get me wrong, I love Nokia phones, but this is a bit much for me. Two years ago Nokia said they’d never make flip phones, then their sales started to drop and they caved into making clamshells. For example - …
Voodoo pc’s are computers that excel at gaming, if you are willing to pay their hefty prices. Today they just announced a new laptop line - the M:515’s for "men and women," but putting that news aside, I noticed this other line of customizable laptops on their web site. The M50’s weigh 3.4lbs with a battery and internal dvd/cd-rw drive, and you can pick its …
This belt really is as hip as it’s name. It’s also available in 3 colors at Target.com for $29.99. I just might pick one up myself.
Yet another pretty accessory to use with your ipod. These Shuga Crystal-Studded Ear Buds are on sale now at Target.com. They’re graced with genuine Swarovski crystals and they come in 3 dazzling colors. The scary part is that I’m kinda drawn to them. Question is… if you wore these would anyone even notice? and if they did notice them what do these ear buds say …
