We’ve seen all kinds of watches here at the Brick, some packed with awesome features. But it seems like the more features you add, the more it weighs your wrist down. That isn’t fun at all. It’s nice when a watch is light and thin. The Obaku 7140G claims to be the slimmest sports watch ever. It certainly looks like that’s true.

Being slim and light is exactly what you want in a sports watch when you are running or playing in a tennis match. Ideally you want something that you don’t even know you are wearing. The design is even sleek and stylish in black.

PDP, a company known for all kinds of gaming gear, has unveiled the Marvel Versus Fighting Pad. It’s a wired joypad with micro-switches for the thumb stick and six front-facing buttons. Hopefully it will improve your game.

It will be available on February 14 for $40. They only have an Xbox 360 model planned right now, but if it sells well, they will be offering a PS3 version. That artwork you see is an actual panel from a Marvel comic.

If you are a music lover then you have probably dreamed of what you could do with a $10,000 iTunes gift card. Well, Apple is giving away just that to one lucky person who downloads the 10 billionth app from its App Store. It could be you.

The company is on track to hit that milestone. So far around 9.76 billion apps have been downloaded. The counter is going up up up. Users are limited to 25 downloads a day, automated software will disqualify you, and you have to agree to let your name and image be used for Apple.

3D is still the in thing for manufacturers and now Fujitsu Japan is planning to offer another 3D item. The ESPRIMO FH/99CM desktop computer features a naked-eye 3D display, with the screen measuring in at 23-inches and it supports Full HD resolutions.

It should be available over in Japan starting February 25th for $3,100. Some specs include: A Blu-ray drive (3D Blu-ray support), Core i7-2630QM (2.00GHz) CPU, Intel H65 Express chip set, 4GB memory, 2TB HDD, IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet, 2x USB 3.0 ports, four USB 2.0 ports and Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit).

Blu-ray recorders with integrated hard drives are no big deal, but Panasonic is offering something different in their DMR-BR30 that was announced for the Japanese market. It features a slot for swappable hard drives. The idea must be to mimic VHS cassettes. It’s not a bad idea really.

The problem is that you won’t be able to swap just any hard drive. You’ll need to buy Panasonic’s DY-HDD500 500GB hard drives for $240 each. It connects via a USB connection and is only supported in this recorder. Users will be able to copy videos from Blu-ray discs or DVDs to the hard drive or vice versa. But only if you have that hard drive.

Word on the street is that Samsung is planning to launch its next-generation of Galaxy Tab tablets at the upcoming Mobile World Congress in February 2011, as well as a new range of Android-powered phones.

Some of these new handsets will feature dual-core processors, Super AMOLED Plus displays and run Android 2.3 Gingerbread. They have already outed some great new gear at CES, so we can’t wait to see what they are offering.

Touchscreen panels are great, but sometimes you miss the old joystick. For those folks, Ten One Designs has come up with the Fling, a tactile game controller accessory for the iPad. Just stick it on your iPad using suction cups and you now have an iPad with a joystick. Hopefully it is comfortable.

And since it’s transparent, it shouldn’t be too distracting on the iPad’s display. It’s made of conductive material so that the iPad’s capacitive display will recognize the input. It will cost you just $25.

We’ve seen Microsoft’s Kinect sensor hacked to do a whole bunch of stuff, and now someone is using it to control a robot using the sensor. Let’s stop this madness now. Before you know it, we will be facing robot armies controlled from some dudes living room.

The robot is dubbed the Veltrobot, a gyro-stabilized robot with some nice limb movement. The system maps the Kinect output onto a skeletal frame, transmitting that information to the robot, which may or may not venture outside to hurt others.

Look what we have here. Sonic the Hedgehog is willing to charge up your Wiimotes while showing the peace sign. He doesn’t look very happy about it though. You can understand why. He’d rather be chasing down golden rings and promoting Sega products. But sadly, those days are gone.

Now he is reduced to sub-par games and promoting Nintendo gear, which in this case will cost you $49.99. It comes from Mad Catz. Hey, at least it acts as a figurine too.

MicroVision’s latest offering is an all new pico laser projector called the MicroVision SHOWWX+ that’s designed just for Apple gear. iPhone and iPad users will now be able to view their screens in a 100-inch frame with 15 lumens of video at a 5,000:1 contrast ratio.

The projector can run for up to 2 hours on a full battery, which is a bit disappointing. You won’t be watching long movies I guess. It comes with a connector for Apple devices and a price tag of $450.

Richard Branson will be releasing his iPad magazine by the name of “Project” tomorrow or the next day, with a cover featuring Jeff Bridges and a cover story on TRON: Legacy. According to a source from 9 to 5 Mac, it will be available in the iTunes store and active tomorrow in the morning.

Will it be a good magazine? Who knows. It seems to have a wide range of content and is certainly getting a lot of hype. We will find out very soon.

If you end up working late into the night, typing away and annoying those who are near you, you might want to check out the Soundproof Keyboard Cover. Sure, it looks absurd, but we hope that the $36 investment will bring some peace to the ears around you.

It supposedly reduces the noise from typing and will also prevent dust from getting in between your keys. It’s probably not very comfortable though. Your hands will likely feel cramped. But if noise is a problem, this may be a good solution.

Looks like we aren’t finished with the Angry Birds craze, so now we have some Angry Birds iPhone 4 cases on the way. Gear4 has introduced a new line of Angry Birds cases for the iPhone 4 with the first three versions featuring the king pig, and red and yellow birds.

These cases are currently due to arrive this November on UK carrier O2′s site and fans in the US can pick them up through the HMV site. These cases will cost you just $25 plus shipping.

Of course you want the Dell Venue Pro, with it’s slide out QWERTY keyboard and it’s 4.1 inch touchscreen. You are drooling over it. It’s okay, wipe that chin. We understand. Thing is, you’ll only be able to purchase it at one of only seven Microsoft retail stores on November 8th or at the Dell.com website on November 15th.

Unless you work for Dell and want to trade in your Blackberry. While the information about the release is just a leak, it is looking to be spot on. You won’t have a very long wait either way.

It looks like Microsoft’s Kinect is really paying off. Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and GameStop are all reporting that they are selling out of the Kinect hardware, though there are still some 360 bundles available apparently.

Many gamers aren’t drawn in by the family-friendly advertising, but you wouldn’t know it by looking at the sales. It just went on sale a few days ago. It brings back memories of Wii shortages all over again. Things are looking great right now, however look at how quickly “Wii fever” dropped. Will the same thing happen here after initial shortages? Time will tell. But for now, Microsoft is loving it.
