I figure I would start up a thread for those looking to find show off their newest toy/gadget/weird thing they just bought.
To get the ball rolling, I am well aware of thinkgeek.com, but I am looking for other websites that sell weird things/gadgets/cool toys. Anyone have any suggestions?

I bought a Rogue and I've been pretty happy with it.
i currently rock
it's a 43mm case
That's so cool. How much is it in Amerrrcan Dollars?
i really love the idea
and it looks pimp too
What other cool gadgets out there? JAEF started it off right, now we just need to keep going.
If you ever wanted an excuse to pull out one of your eyes, now you have one.
No link to buy one now but in a few years I bet there will be :P
P.S. Should be "Gadgets" not "Gadget's".
Use apostrophe + s only for possessive, like "Jim's car."
Pandora is about the only thing similar I know of.

Well that or Netbooks. Maybe a G1.
Do you want a UMPC?
?
Horribly expensive, though close to what I want. The issue is I want a small, PDA formfactor. Hardware-wise, they're near-perfect. I just want the right SOFTWARE pushing that hardware.
The pandora's close, and I want one a lot, but it's not exactly what I'm talking about.
That is pretty damn cool. I think I also may have found my Christmas present.
Is there any drawback- IE: some sort of secret expensive ninja batteries that can only be sold in japan?
And why the fuck do they not have some sort of awesome watches that you can charge daily like a cellphone anyway?
It's a standard "fancypants" watch in construction, I took it into a jeweler to get some links removed as it was far too large for my dainty wrists in its initial state and had no issue getting that done. It's got a nice shine to it.
You probably want the OQO or the Sony UX-series, both expensive.
The Samsung thing is huge.
Edit: Links added. Also Dynamism imports many cool doodads seen in gadget blogs but not readily available in the U.S.
This crossed my mind earlier: does it indeed take a standard watch battery?
For the first time in my life, I actually have an incentive to keep an eye on the dollar-to-yen exchange.
I sent them an e-mail as their website is shockingly unhelpful, but no harm in asking here too, I guess. Any idea if those guys ship to the EU outside the UK? I see no reason not to, but fuck knows with small time shops.
I promised pictures, here you go. The 3.2MP phone camera fucks with the lightning on the front and makes it look a bit grimier than it is on the two left shots. I swab it every once in a while with some alcohol wipes (complementary at work, don't think that I would buy any..) to keep its shine all shiney. The two golden circles are where the LED light comes from, as you can sort of see in the picture the lighting is slightly uneven. It still looks cool, and it's not something that bothers me, just something I noticed if it may affect your purchase.
Precisionk it's just poor lighting, both of the Rogues have the green LED. I would like to see the silver in action though. I get a ton of compliments on my watch, and a handful just asking how you read it. Would be great as a conversation starter if I weren't a functioning mute. My tongue is a vampire you see.
Oh really? I thought it came in two different colors. I will rock it tonight for the digital camera and post those pictures. Most people look at me like I am an alien from another planet when I am wearing it and ask me why I get it if I can't read it right away.
I got the reading down now like normal. They are just jealous me thinks.
Found it. Laurinda Spear Free Time Watch. There is a bit of flash that shows the movement. It is a little too much on the feminine side for my tastes than I remember, maybe there is another version out there.
Is the zune positioned to stop it from rolling away, much like wooden blocks on airplanes?
It absolutely is. My zune is dead, so my wheel chock might as well color-coordinate. The stock kickstand is a pile of crap that everyone breaks the first day they own one.
