It’s that time of year again and yeah Thanksgiving isn’t even here yet, but it’s time for the crappy Santa USB drives to arrive. Who buys these? Do you buy these? Do you have them given to you by the office dork? This one is from PQI. The limited edition Intelligent Drive-U825 Santa USB flash drive.

It’s water and dust proof so when someone gives you one and you throw it in the street, some other dude can find it and use it. It’s available in capacities from 4GB to 16GB. It can also be used as a dongle decoration. Oh joy.

Apple Corps and EMI are finally offering up a legal way to grab digital Beatles tracks. The Apple-shaped stick you see above has FLAC and MP3 versions of the new CD set, which includes all the band’s music re-mastered in stereo.

FLAC quality is 44.1Khz 24 bit, and MP3 is 320 Kbps. Only 30,000 of these USB Sticks will be made, so you better grab one on November 8 when they go on sale for $280 (You can pre-order). The stick costs $60 more than the CD set, but you get “all of the re-mastered CDs’ visual elements, including 13 mini-documentary films about the studio albums, replicated original UK album art, rare photos and expanded liner notes.”

Today’s iPod dock of the day award goes to the Hard Rock Cafe’s very own iPod Dock. I guess it makes sense for them to offer one up. The limited edition Hard Rock MP3 Retro Radio features an FM digital tuner and an iPod dock that supports every generation including the iPhone 3G and iPod Touch.

Does anyone not already own an iPod dock by now? Well if you’ve been waiting for a dirt cheap iPod dock, get in the game already with this one. You can connect your other non-Apple MP3 players, CD players or other audio devices to the speaker via the audio line-in cord and it’s powered by 4 AA batteries.

Sure this looks like a toy, but we didn’t just get this camera out of our kids toybox. It’s a fully-functional dSLR. A limited edition Pentax K-x done up in the colors of Japan’s Kore Ja Nai robot. Only 100 Robotic Colors K-x units will be released in Japan starting this November.

They will be sold exclusively through Pentax’s online store for $880. Wow. Toy looks, tech price. Just be careful that your preschooler doesn’t get his/her hands on this.

iRiver is rolling out the N20 Mariah Carey edition which will come preloaded with 17 tracks from her latest album called Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. We have no idea how the N20 will be controlled and if it uses the usual 3.5mm headphone jack.

Some say it’s controlled by a touch interface, some say there are buttons on the back. Maybe the controls are on a touchscreen that looks like a scantily clad Mariah, so geeks can feel her up and play tunes. We just don’t know.

Nokia has teamed up with fashion house RAOUL for an extremely limited edition of its N97 mini. This edition is limited to 1000 units. The package features a back cover with RAOUL signature stripes, a custom designed Fashion Asia widget, and a calf-skin leather case.

Check this out. T-mobile has re-imagined the myTouch 3G. They’ve added something that was sorely needed: a 3.5mm headphone jack for a new version of the phone later this year. The other news is that the new myTouch is being released as a special edition thanks to a partnership with Fender.

This baby sports a super nice woodgrain finish, comes bundled with a 16GB microSD card, and has some preloaded music content. Pretty nice huh?

Watch in amazement as your kids say, “Who?” And, “Dad, I don’t get it. Why is this cool?” Kids today may not know who Evel Knievel is, but that isn’t stopping the manufacturer of this kid’s chopper.

It’s the limited-edition replica of the street cruiser ridden by Robert Craig “Evel” Knievel. And if you didn’t know, he set the world record by jumping over 19 cars and a bunch of other stuff, when he wasn’t laying in the hospital moaning.

Southern Brand is based in Miami, so I’m not sure why these are cowhide and not alligator. Anyway, they’ve just rolled out a Limited edition Cowhide Phone Cover for both the iPod and iPhone, offering protection against knocks and scratches. As long as your device doesn’t fall out of the top anyway.

These are made from beautiful premium cowhides and are one-of-a-kind since they are all handmade. The inside is soft suede backed by smooth chocolate tanned leather. They’ll cost you $29 each.

Hey look. They’ve slapped Hello Kitty on another object so teen girls and women who never grew up can sicken those around them. This latest device to fall prey to Hello Kitty’s charms is the Sony Ericsson W395.

It’s already available in Hong Kong and the Hello Kitty version has the exact same specs as the standard W395. It just has our favorite world dominating kitty on it and sports a metallic pink color. It will cost you about $200 and a girlly scream of joy.

Apparently it’s Hello Kitty’s 35th anniversary despite the fact that every year seems like an anniversary with all of the kitty branded crap that gets regurgitated onto the market like tasty gadget hairballs. This is not the first Casio digital camera we’ve seen carrying the face of HK, but the Exilim EX- Z2 is the first 12.1-megapixel version we’ve ever seen.

And what would it be if it were not covered in Swarovskis and dipped in pink? This Casio features a 2.7-inch LCD, and a 3 x optical zoom, plus it looks like the package comes with the following: a camera case, lanyard, and giant pink tribble thing.

EA sports and Pizza Hut are teaming up to delever a one-two combination to boxing fans. The chance to win a limited edition Fight Night Round 4 custom Xbox 360 console. It’s not just about a sweet looking console though.

The grand prize is a trip to Vegas to see a real championship fight. Boxing fans should love this. You might notice that they even included a little dried blood, which is a nice detail.

It’s slightly ironic that on the same day we get details about Microsoft’s Project Natal, which provides hands-free gaming, we get word of this awesome Halo 3 ODST limited edition controller. It’s the big M’s way of saying, “You don’t need controllers anymore, but we’d like to really still milk these things for all their worth.

The Halo 3: ODST-themed controller comes with the $99 collector’s version of the game. How can you resist? It’s a Halo themed controller, after all. Get ‘em while you can. Soon controllers will be a thing of the past…Not really.
