It won't be long before we're toiling away, serving our new robot masters. Why not make friends with a little robot now? That way, your new metal comrade can stick up for you when the robots start tossing humans in volcanoes for kicks.
The Tomy I-SOBOT could be that friend. With four modes of operation, including remote control, special action, voice command and programming mode, you can control your new best friend and teach the world that man and robot can live in harmony.
The fully articulated robot understands 10 voice commands, plays guitar and can be programmed to perform a sequence of up to 80 actions. One of those actions could rescue you from hot lava.

Raise your hand if you're sick of those blinking, futuristic Bluetooth headsets everyone seems to have crammed in their ears these days ... now while your hand is up, grab hold of this cool retro handset!
Leave that "Star Trek" look to the nerds and dazzle instead with this "Dragnet" looking Bluetooth enabled retro handset! Compatible with all Bluetooth phones, it has a 30-foot range and can both make and receive calls, and it's far more comfortable than having a small chunk of plastic and metal sticking out of your head.
Now if you could just replace that electronic keyboard with a typewriter.

Hot summer days means cool summer nights. You could just toss on any old hoodie while you cruise the night, but as soon as you try listening to your MP3 player or newly acquired iPhone, you get a tangled mess o' wires. Knot no more.
The Ultimate Hoodie Microfleece can keep you from getting snarled in your cord mess by utilizing its integrated wire management system. Your cables are actually inside the hoodie -- no more snagging on random obstacles! The hoodie's lightweight microfleece is thin enough that you can control your devices through the fabric, yet thick enough to keep the chill out, while chilling. Add 11 pockets to carry change, keys and bottles -- and you've got the greatest hoodie ever invented! It even has a secret pocket for your, uh, vitamins.
Expect hoodie aficionado Lindsay Lohan to be sporting one of these ... while hiding from TMZ cameras.

For children, the Internet is a glorious sea of knowledge. You can find limitless information on an unlimited number of subjects and people. You can also find people subjected to an unlimited number of positions.
No matter how smart you think you are, face it, when it comes to technology, your kids are smarter than you. You can change passwords and install all the tracking programs all you want -- they're going to defeat them. Fortunately, you can now lock your computer with the KidSafe Security Key.
Once the KidSafe software is installed, it cannot be uninstalled and you must have the key inserted into the USB port of the computer to make your PC function. Even the old standbys of booting in safe-mode or from a disk can be disabled.
Your kids will only use the computer when you want them to -- and your presence is the best security. Maybe.

Everyone remembers the glasses worn by Geordi LaForge from "Star Trek: The Next Generation." They gave Geordi the ability to see like you and me -- and of course, made him look like a dork.
Well, if you're unconcerned with your appearance, yet concerned with the ultimate private video viewing experience, then the Digital Video Eyewear is right up your movie-viewing alley. The eyewear attaches to your personal DVD player, Video iPod or Zune. You can even watch field-sequential content in 3D if the DVD supports the format.
Since you can't see the stares you're likely to get while wearing this thing, they're the perfect glasses for the film buff on the go.

Love can knock you off your feet ... the Sonic Boom Love Clock can knock you right out of bed.
The heart-shaped alarm clock will make sure you're never late for a date. The clock's adjustable alarm can reach an ear-shattering 113 decibels (a chainsaw is 110). If the ringing in your ears isn't enough to roust you out of the sack, the clock also has an attachable "bed shaker" that you slide under your mattress to vigorously shake your bed!
The bed shaker can also be employed without the audible alarm -- if you'd like to entertain your date.

Technology may work wonders in helping you find someone on MySpace who likes exactly the same TV shows that you do, but it's no substitute for good old fashioned romance. Until now.
LED Blow On-Off Candles are here to save your love life from another night of trolling singles websites. Instead of a real flame, these realistic "candles" use LEDs ... and turn on and off by blowing on them! W00t!
Imagine how cool you'll look, blowing on a lamp to turn it on. For realism, the candles even have a wax coating. The LED Blow On-Off Candle will "burn" for up to 300 hours on a set of two AA batteries, and sells for $12.99 to $15.99.
Now all you need are a few Barry White CDs and you're set. Use as a nightlight when kids arrive.

If you have always fancied yourself a low-level 007, then have we got the gadget for you. A spy camera that resembles a Zippo lighter.
The high-tech camera can store up to 300 pictures so you never have to worry about running out of room while you are deep under cover. It also captures images at pre-set intervals for those times you need to leave the camera somewhere to capture that hard-to-get image.
If that wasn't enough, you can also record video clips -- complete with sound -- for that bit of information pictures alone can't capture. This sweet little device also records up to 12 hours of audio. In fact, the only thing this lighter in disguise won't do is actually light a cigarette.
So whether you're trying to get a pic of your favorite celebrity at a restaurant or you're trying to figure out which one of your roommates is drinking your orange juice, be sure to add this pocket spy cam to your arsenal.
