Silverlit, purveyors of remote-controlled things that fly , have come up trumps with their V-Beat Air Drums. Containing motion sensors (but, sadly, no neon tips like you see in the picture) they are the beans to the toast that is the V-Beat air guitar. Plug your iPod into the control box and drum along to whatever you fancy. There’s even some kind of pedal thingy that lets you drum with your feet, although the protruding wires made me think "shoe bomb." Video of the $60 friend-isolator after the jump.
Is it just me, or did the air guitarist just do something really redolent of rudeness a minute into the video? [ Thumbs Up (UK) via Boing Boing Gadgets ]

A recent insider-meddling scandal inside the space-merchant game EVE Online prompted the creation of a democratically elected player council called the Council of Stellar Management (CSM). This newly constituted democratic institution is charged with helping the game developers balance out fun with fairness. I've often wondered whether democratic player-groups can vote for more fun, even when "fun" includes making the game harder and more frustrating at times. 1UP: When can we expect to se... more

The MiJam Pro Air Drummer allows the drummer in you to be released. This wireless system allows you to jam along with your favorite songs by simulating a full drum set - without the actual full drum set. The MiJam Pro Air Drummer features volume and tempo controls, 6 built-in rhythms, and drum sticks that can play snare, tom tom, floor tom, crash cymbal, and hi-hat cymbal. You can also connect your ipod or Mp3 player to the Air Drummer via an audio out jack. A wireless speaker is also in... more
Logitech’s ClearChat Wireless PC headset might seem unremarkable, but a quick scan of Amazon shows there aren’t really any wireless headsets on the market with dual earphones. Logitech claims the 2.4 GHz Wireless device is designed with VoIP users in mind, but we all really know why this is great: MMO fanboys can now head over to the bathroom and drain a shotgunned gallon of Mountain Dew without abandoning their clan of orcs, elves and mages. The ClearChat PC Wireless Headset wi... more
SanDisk may have a new PMP on the way. An accessory bundle for something called a Sansa Fuze was spotted on maker HandStands’ website earlier—currently the address redirects to generic Sansa accessories. The player pictured in the ad looks like competition for a 3G iPod nano, and will likely include 8-16GB of memory as well as video and radio playback. When we know for sure, you will too.

A new iPod controller developed in Japan allows you to control your music via your eyes, as it uses a camera clipped to glasses or a pair of headphones to read how you’re blinking.
No, it won’t skip tracks every few seconds whenever you blink, as you need to be pretty deliberate to get it to work: "Wink strongly for one second with one eye to rewind, use the other to skip to the next song, or close both eyes to pause and play." While this might be a great solution for people wh... more
City dwellers who can’t shake their love for the Great Outdoors will find excitement in the "Urban Skiff." It’s a portable boat that goes from duffle bag to sad, wilted-looking dinghy in just eight impossible easy steps. Now all you need is a space in your cramped apartment to store a boat-sized bag, means to transport it and water to set sail in. Personally, you’d have a better chance of finding my body at the bottom of the East River before you found me carrying this thing ... more
