    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

    Let's face it -- we live in a technology-dependent world in which our daily routine is shattered when our PDA battery depletes to empty. But while we make the necessary room in our budget to get all the latest electronic gadgets, that old jalopy you've been driving may not have the modern accommodations to keep you wired on the go. Welcome PowerCup, a 200-watt outlet inverter for your car, complete with a USB hub to charge your phone, iPod, PDA, laptop -- whatever your techie heart desires! And the coolest thing? It's shaped like a coffee cup to fit perfectly in your car's cup holder! How genius is that? You can finally call off the search for separate car chargers for all your gadgets!

    Hot In The Hive: Purse Flats!

    Who says you need to sacrifice quality for comfort? Purse Flats are comfy portable shoes that fold up neatly into a cute accompanying clutch to salvage stiletto-sore feet on the dance floor, out on the town, or even during long meetings at work. Since they've been spotted on Mya during her "Dancing With The Stars" rehearsals, you gotta figure they must be pretty comfortable, not to mention sturdy! Sure, they're not as affordable as the vending machine Rollasole version, but a portion of the proceeds is donated to support underprivileged youth! Plus, since I have yet to find a shoe dispenser at any club I've been to, Purse Flats sound like a pretty dependable alternative on the go!


    Price: $240, includes purse & flats

    Hot In The Hive: MovieWedge

    Man, do I wish I had discovered the MovieWedge in time for my last sleepless red-eye flight to New York! Think of the plushy little media player stand as a bean bag chair for your iPod -- it's tiny, squishy and portable, and props up your device at an adjustable viewing angle so you can watch videos on your device hands-free. Anyone who's had to entertain themselves on the go knows it's a pain to have to hold your player for hours at a time (or at least until your downloads run its battery life dry). Now you and your iPod can be cozy just about anywhere as it sits atop its little perch on any tray table, arm rest, or even on your lap!


    Price: $9.95

    Anyone who ever goes out on the town with a gaggle of gal-pals knows that before you leave the house, you need to take a mandatory self-timer group pic. Now, thanks to the DigiDudes Portable Camera Tripods, you don't have to balance your digital camera on random textbooks and appliances to get just the right angle for you, or kick one unlucky lady out of the picture to just take the freakin' photo so you can leave already. Digidudes are small and portable and can be attached to your keys or your camera bag, and simply unscrew to serve as a tripod for your digital camera, camcorder, Flip, or what-have-you for stable picture-taking on the go. They even come in a variety of colors and "characters" -- like Pinky Scorsese, G-Bling-Money-Son, and Snot Buster (um, ew) -- to serve as the perfect portable pal for you and your picture-taking needs!


    Price: $24.99 each

    Laptop Add-ons That'll Have Your Notebook Back-To-School ...

    So you've picked out the laptop that will (hopefully) serve as your loyal lifeline through the four (or more) years ahead full of harrowing all-nighters and endless study sessions. Check. But is its just-out-of-the-box pristine condition completely ready for what it has in store once it's shipped off with you to college? It may be shiny and new, but is it really ready to tackle the long walks to class, the thousands of party pictures, and (gasp!) the spilled energy drinks? Maybe not, but with this selection of laptop additions, you and your notebook will be fully supplied and stylishly accessorized for both working hard and hardly working. Make sure you have a desktop cord organizer to keep all your tangled cables in check, for one, and don't forget to nab a sweet pair of speakers to lure the floormates into your room for your own dorm dance party (after your paper is done, of course). Check the slideshow for some back-to-school laptop loot!
