Neil Poulton’s Fire-Wire Speakers

Neil Poulton’s Fire-Wire Speakers

Well designed speakers can be hard to come by. A large majority of the home/personal audio world is full of little (and big) black boxes.

Neil Poulton has stepped up the game a bit with his new Fire-Wire Speakers.

These are very will designed but make a point to not overwhelm your space with crazy colors or odd shapes.

At $120, the price point on these is really quite affordable for speakers this nice.

USB Air Freshener…things just got weird

USB Air Freshener

I’ve seen some rather unusual USB devices in my day…but this might be the weirdest.

The USB Fragrance Oil drive from USB Geek lets you plugin a small “drive” into a USB port and put in a few drops of fragrance for which it will graciously emit throughout the day.

They have four magnificently un-geeky scents available: Rose, Peppermint, Jasmine, and Lavender.

What is the world coming to?
