    Hot In The Hive: Moshi Voice Control Alarm Clock

    Finally -- an alarm clock for the sleeper who really doesn't want to get up. Since my alarm isn't within arm's reach, I always have to physically haul myself out of bed every time I want to smack the snooze button! The techie braniacs at Moshi clearly had everyone's lazy-bum side in mind when they invented the Voice Control Alarm Clock. Now you can shut your alarm clock off (or set the time, or check the temperature, or even set your next alarm time) by simply telling it off -- with its trusty voice control technology. I'm kind of thinking this device is dangerous for those who sleep like the dead (or those who talk in their sleep), but it does sound awfully convenient for us anti-morning people!


    Price: $24.99

    Even for someone as relatively tech-savvy as I am, it's difficult keeping track of the ever-changing developments in cell phones, PDAs, laptops, cameras, etc. (and whatever pocket-sized gizmo will show up next to more conveniently combine all four). If you're someone who still rocks an old Nokia out of fear of any device that functions as more than just a phone, doesn't understand a word of technology jargon, and/or often spaces out during Apple Genius appointments ("I don't care what you do or what it costs -- just fix it!") Sephora, in tandem with the many brands the makeup mothership carries, offers a variety of gadgets that might actually speak your language! While more and more people are trying to save by cutting back on their regular spa trips, high-tech beauty tools for at-home treatments are becoming increasingly popular, easier to use, and even more advanced for cheaper costs, making even the pricier devices good investments when you think about all the trips to the salon you'll be saving. While a technology-phobic gal may argue that her old-fashioned eyelash curler works just fine, the upgraded heated ones are undeniably simple to use and get the job done better! And it's hard to resist the convenient convertibility of the Bliss rechargeable hair trimmer with interchangeable blades for all those pesky hard-to-reach spots you risk nicking while shaving. Before your inner caveman acts out and forces you to reject all things techie, check out the slideshow to see just how convenient some of these new cosmetic contraptions really are!

Whether you're looking for an updated alternative to the old-fashioned flowers and candy or just looking for some cutesy Cupid-inspired ways to get yourself festive this V-Day, these darling devices are sure to appeal to your techie side (even if you're not that gizmo-savvy)!
