Before all you faithful Mac enthusiasts write off this tablet PC as just another over-ambitious attempt to overthrow the Apple reign, hold up. This gadget is famous in the fashion world! If you tuned into last week's premiere of Project Runway season 7 (back in the Big Apple, baby!), you may have caught Tim Gunn's schpeel about the new gadget that's geared to expedite the sketching process for this season's contestants. Complete with a multi-touch swivel screen and a pen for scribing notes (or scrawling design sketches!), plus a webcam and a slew of high-tech specs I couldn't even begin to explain to you, this 12-inch tablet seems like a pretty sweet addition to the show, not to mention just about anyone's desktop! Check out the deals at LogicBuy and decide if you're willing to switch tech teams!

Hot In The Hive: Sonos ZonePlayer 120

My favorite dance clubs are the kinds with multiple rooms or floors that play different types of music in each section. That way, I'm never bored, always have a multiple options to choose from, and all my friends can find a room that they like. Have you ever imagined bringing that into your own home? I found a company called Sonos which makes wireless audio receivers and speakers that work in your home. Start out with the Sonos ZonePlayer, plug in your router and favorite speakers, and you're ready to go. With this system, you can listen music from your own iTunes library or listen to digital radio stations like Sirius and Pandora. Add ZonePlayers in other rooms and you can have your own in-house dance club. Sing along with Aretha Franklin and other classics in your bathroom and rock out to Gwen Stefani and Rihanna in your kitchen! Best of all, you can control everything with their Sonos controller, your computer, or your iPhone!
Price: $499
Who Found It: facadeindreams was the first to add the Sonos ZonePlayer to the Hive.
