fullmoon furnitureTime to get a piece of the moon in your house! Not really, but still this piece of furniture called Fullmoon, gives you the feeling of sitting on a piece of the moon.

The creator of the Fullmoon, Sotirios Papadopoulos, was created using n ecologically safe paint (ELI – ecolight inside) which glows in the dark.

It does not need electricity, the paint makes this furniture glow. Aside from looking like a moon rock, the glow in the dark makes it look like it's a piece of rock imported by an alien.

skull helmetBikers in general don't have a positive impression on people. Some of us even associate bikers with criminals.

Good news for the bikers, we came across a helmet that looks exactly like a skull. Now you can really scare all those ignorant people when you're reading your bike with this skull helmet.

Sure it looks really mean, and with a price of $150 it's not that expensive. But bear in mind, the helmet is not DOT or Snell approved.

More info - $150

penphoneWe at gadgetcool love cool gadgets, especially when they are compact and are not what they seem to be.

Take this pen for example, looks like an ordinary pen, right? Think again, this pen is actually a cellphone.

This gadget is still in concept stage, which means it doesn't exist yet. But here are some details: the pen is designed to connect with Bluetooth headsets, it will have a USB connector, a microSD slot, a mono LCD screen to show numbers and any other information you expect to be on a cellphone.

Numbers are dialed with a touch interface number system, which is etched into the pen itself. The USB connector also doubles as a control wheel to scroll through address books and call navigation.

The pen acts as an antenna, as it's nine inches long. And guess what, the pen actually writes!

We really like this design, and remember, , if you have to write down a phonenumber someone gives you, wouldn't it be silly to ask to borrow a pen, when there's one in your ear?

cybook read books digitalWe here at gadgetcool love nature, that's why we want to show some love to the Cybook Gen3.

Basically, this gadget allows you to read (e-)books on some kind of a PDA. This way, you do not need to buy real books, which means no paper, no cut down trees, better for nature, ... you get the point.

Books are big, heavy, they usually don't fit your pocket and are uncomfortable to carry. Thanks to modern technologies, we have plenty of devices to read from.

The Cybook Gen3 is a specifically designed electronic reader, the new display technology makes reading from a display as comfortable as reading a normal book.

By using E-Ink, which requires no backlight to read, we are able to read from our gadget even when sitting in the sun. It almost feels like it's written on real paper.

With a screen resolution of 800x600 it fits an entire page on the screen.
The device has a 2.5 stereo mini jack for music listening (device can play mp3 files), 64MB of internal memory, SD slot and USB port.

kitty keyboardAll this time we thought we were the only ones with this problem.

People working from home who happen to have a cat as pet, have a fairly unique problem. Cats like to be near the epicenter of activity, they enjoy sitting and sleeping on warm objects.

A keyboard fulfills both requirements; if its owner is a knowledge worker and spends most of his time on the keyboard then the cat will most likely enjoy sleeping near its owner on the keyboard.

The more people we showed the Kitty Keyboard Kover, the more people acknowledged the problem.

This $25 gadget is a simple glass bridge which you can put on top of your keyboard so your cat can rest while you do the typing.

wooden keyboardWell this keyboard isn't really the most environmentally friendly component since it's created out of wood. But, at least it's more biodegradable than plastic.
