There’s been a aggregation of LEGO this and LEGO that on OhGizmo! recently, and instead of gift you a break, I figured I’d foregather primed it coming. I mean is there anyone on Earth who actually dislikes LEGO? The manifest move is no, but I effect to feature I’m inferior than impressed with this authorised LEGO manoeuvre radio.

Sure it’s got the LEGO stylemark covered everywhere, and a change of colossus knobs on crowning that help as intensity and receiver dials, but it appears to be completely clashing with experience LEGO bricks. I mean the crowning of the broadcasting couldn’t effect been prefabricated brick-friendly so that ‘kids’ could accessorize and change it with their possess LEGO creations? I’m every for the interact angularity discover with gadgets aforementioned this, but LEGO isn’t most the difference name, it’s most the antiquity blocks! $29.97 from Walmart.

Sony, the debatable kind of proprietary formats, has finally caved. Well, at least in this one instance, anyway. In a presumed confession that Apple’s music players actually are somewhat popular, it is releasing the iPod / iPhone-friendly CMT- LX20i micro shelf system, CMT- LX20i clock radio and MHC-EC99i mini boombox (pictured above). Not a whole lot left to say other than they also play CDs, tell time and rattle windows, respectively.

It’s just over 13 hours into the new year where I’m at, and it seems as good a time as any to post our first ‘form over function’ alarm clock for 2009. The Time Tuner was created by Istanbul-based Antrepo Design Industry, and instead of using a traditional easy-to-read digital clock face, it features an analog style that looks like the horizontal tuner on an analog radio.

The individual numbers along the dial light-up to indicate the current hour, while an illuminated vertical red line slowly moves across the dial indicating the minute. With only about an inch of space between each hour number, using the vertical minute line to tell the exact time will take some approximation, and you’ll probably have to account for a give or take of about a couple of minutes. But that inconvenience aside, the Time Tuner would definitely look slick sitting on my bedside table… my bedside cardboard shipping box… on the floor next to my bed.

Pictured above is the ‘Pure Black’ model, but they’re also available in ‘Clean White’ and ‘Strong Metal’ finishes, and if you’re interested in purchasing one you’ll have to contact the Antrepo Design Industry via email since online ordering or pricing info is not available on their website. (In other words, be prepared to empty your wallet.)
