Unfortunately the Star Trek Enterprise Record Player is just a design, and not a real turntable, which is a shame because I would definitely buy one of these.

Who knows maybe some manufacturer will spot it and start making them, the design is part of the Star Trek Model Gallery, head on over and check out some of the other cool designs.

Star Trek Enterprise Record Player

If you have a Bluetooth device with music on it that you’d like to play out loud, Sony Ericsson has a new accessory that would work out great.  The iPhone is able to play music through the speakers, but it’s never very loud or the greatest quality sound.  It does the job if you’re desperate, but if you’re hoping to enjoy your music a bit more loudly a separate speaker would be a nice accessory to have around.

The Bluetooth has a range of 32 feet and it makes it possible to control the device directly from the speaker.  That way you can have your musical device tucked safely away and only the speaker sitting out.  That feature makes it especially convenient since due to this speaker being splashproof you could take it with you to the beach or pool.  It runs on AA batteries that will give it up to 5 hours of play time.  You’ll be able to choose between the black and orange color scheme shown here or the white speaker trimmed with pink.  It’s not available just yet and there is no pricing info, but hopefully that will be coming soon.

Much like cell phones, GPS units, and just about every other electronic device under the sun, digital picture frames seem to snowball more and more features every month. While earlier tricks such as playing MP3s and displaying RSS feeds have been quaint, really useful features have been quite elusive.

LG takes one step closer to a truly useful and multifunctional LCD frame with its DP889 8-inch portable photo frame, which just doesn’t do static images – it does DVDs. At home, it’s a stationary centerpiece for photos, and on the road, it’s a portable entertainment system to stave off boredom and the snoring of the guy next to you.

Since not many people want to carry a wood-trimmed picture frame onto a plane, switch off Grandma and turn on Transformers, LG’s designers have done their best to make the DP889 fit in as both a picture frame and a portable DVD player. Its flat face and gloss-black bezel would look at home on an end table, but its rounded edges and smooth profile also give a comfy-to-hold look more common to PMPs. Most of the controls have been relocated to the side where they are less conspicuous, and its DVD player functionality has been disguised best of all – it cracks open down the middle to reveal the interior disc reader.

I usually end up sitting in front of my television either banging the control off of the couch or taking the back off of the remote and twisting the batteries around until they start working again. The latter seems to work quite a bit for some reason. Getting off of the couch to fetch some fresh batteries would just not be right. Too much energy. Now it looks like you don't have to anymore. 

I have a wind up radio that would use a pile of power to operate and it lasts for about 10 minutes after winding her a good one. I can't imagine a remote using a ton of power once it gets charged. Changing stations and turning it off. You can read more about the Wind Up Universal TV Remote at the Gizoo Website  and it retails for about £20 or $38.
