Buckle up!

147 colored LEDs surrounded by a chrome frame that can be attached to a belt or set on a desk or shelf. Your own personal billboard ready to announce your brilliant thoughts to the world or a convenient way to quietly tell someone to STFU, your choice! It has onboard speed and brightness adjustments, and all the functions can be programmed without a computer, using the onboard programming buttons. It can store up to 6 messages, 256 characters long (each). And you can also chose the colors, blue, red or white. Now I need a pair of LED pants to match!

The weather cha... erm, Orb!!!

The Ambient Orb is a device that transitions between thousands of colors to show changes in weather, your stock portfolio, or if your boss or friend is on instant messenger. The Ambient Orb is plugged into any standard 110V power outlet and it is up and running on a nationwide wireless network, no Internet connection required. The Orb does not attach to a PC. The channel for the Orb can be selected via web interface and will update in a short period of time. Depending on which channel the Orb is monitoring, it will receive updates every few minutes, or perhaps once per hour for some channels. This glowing Orb comes with lightning LED that can produce thousands of color combinations and pulses, is made of glass and has 3 brightness level settings. So if you have $150 in your pocket, you can have this cool Orb that can even tell you the pollen count!

Enough for you? Well, not enough for this gadget!It includes "interpersonal skills", he can marry (yes, marry) another rabbit, copy the other rabbit´s movements, light patterns and sounds. If you move your Nabaztag ears, he´s spouse will move them too.
