8-bit hanger is a gravity-defying, geek-gratifying implement of mass distraction
What's this you say, your clothes would be better off if they weren't strewn all over the floor, but you just don't know how to maintain them airborne sans magical abilities? Fear not, we've finally found a hanger worthy of a true gadget geek in the retro styled 8-bit pointer you see above. There's not an overwhelming amount of complexity to it -- hell, even the one screw that holds the finger to the wall is permanently attached -- but nothing communicates your tech credentials quite like a pixelated mouse cursor from yesteryear. Available now for $19.99 a piece plus shipping.
Samsung's S60-based SGH-i550 launched, admired
Samsung shows another trackball-enabled device but this one packs the S60, 3.1 UI, and not Windows Mobile under the hood.

Featuring triple-band GSM, HSDPA, GPS, 3.2 megapixel camera, 4 GB of memory expandability via microSD, and that lovely little trackball we're just itching to get our thumbs on. No word on pricing details, but launch is apparently slated for November so here's to the dream that we're only days away from it's Windows Mobile-enabled sibling's launch.
