Daniel Craig, also known as James Bond in certain diplomatic spy circles, wants his prototype ASAP!

The sexy and shiny oval cufflinks split open to reveal USB thumb drives that are compatible with any sort of computer, tablet, or even iPhone.

It is only in the rarest of cases that fashion and technical gadgetry can be one and the same (for an exception to the rule, see the late Steve Job’s turtleneck for a way to keep the neck warm and the head primed for genius thoughts and technical dreams). Too often the wearer’s look is sacrificed for function, but this is far from the case with Brookstone’s newest release: the Polished Silver Oval Wi-Fi and 2GB USB Cufflinks.

Go to the board meeting or gold bullion exchange looking lean and mean, not to mention badass, with the USB Cufflinks helping to not only take care of the shirt sleeves, but also the Wi-Fi needs of the iPad in hand and the computer on the table through the ‘links’ secretly stowed wireless hot spot.

Goldfinger will not understand how, having stripped Bond of all of his gadgets, he could still tap into the database with only the use of an inept guard’s iPod Touch and escape his death ray device.

These cufflinks come with software to commandeer any wireless device and utilize an Internet connection, while still keeping the wearer looking dressed to kill at an upper-class ball, office party, or political inauguration.

Two hundred and fifty dollars is expensive but worth the cost for the polished silver cufflinks on their own, and now they provide the hardware for anyone to complete Mission Impossible.

The Subzero Warm Breath Mask might look as though it’s from Mortal Kombat and not Hammacher Schlemmer, but it is truly a remarkable medical-grade breathing mask crafted to spare the throat and lungs from the same freezing air that bitterly dominates the outside during the cold season.

Anyone who does not hibernate or migrate to the tropics during the earth’s harsh winter could use a Subzero Warm Breath Mask.

This beauty covers the bottom half of the wearer’s head – from the nose on down the neck – and seals it in breathable, wind-resistant Polartec fleece.

For years the Subzero Mask has been popular amongst scientists in Antarctica and mountain climbers, because the microbe-resistant polyurethane in the ventilation chamber raises the air temperature that the wearer breathes by forty to sixty degrees (Fahrenheit) and the humidity to eighty percent.

Breathing feels natural with the Subzero Mask, despite traversing a double black diamond ski slope, or scaling Mt. Everest (although a lot more equipment is probably needed). And because the Subzero Mask bonds with the humidity in the air, it keeps moisture off of the face and fog off of glasses and goggles.

For less than sixty bucks, this Canadian godsend can help ward off the painfully frozen air and make the wearer appear enough like the villain Bane to make Batman fear for the safety of his back.

The company is called YOU gNeek and they specialize in making all kinds of miniature jewelry in vintage, modern, and geeky styles. Their tiny vintage looking lighter cufflinks are a working piece of art perfect for any guy looking to make a fashion statement or keep a conversation starter on his sleeve.

Measuring 7/8” high and 3/4” wide, these gumball style lighters require a steady hand and some common sense for those brave enough to attempt a light while wearing them (there is actually a warning doc that advises against this – good times).

For you knife aficionado’s YOU gNeek has also create a set of tiny working stainless mini knives. Yes, they are sharp and yes, they are dangerous. The blade is about 9/16”, most likely hard to hold, and perfectly capable of cutting open a package.

Judging by the popularity of our recent Han Solo ice cube tray article, Gadizmo’s Star Wars fans will be happy to know that these creative geniuses have also create mini replicas of the Slave 1, Death Star, and Millennium Falcon.

With prices ranging from $40 for the Star Wars collection to $90 for the working lighters, YOU gNeek has something affordable for the button-down-shirt-wearing-guy with everything.

spnKiX are battery powered, remote controlled, motorized personal mobility skates that you can strap onto any pair of shoes. They are powered by lithium batteries (which take a couple of hours to charge), have a top speed of up to 10mph (depending on how fat you already are), and have a range of up to 3 miles.

The fob-like wireless remote has one simple variable speed control which powers both feet in unison. Just get on the gas to go and take your finger off to slow down.

Although the guy in the video makes it look easy, spnKiX do come with a set of removable training wheels and are recommended for ages 16+.

This Kickstarter project has met it’s relatively tiny goal of $25k with 39 days to spare and expects it’s first production run to arrive by the end of February. If you want a great deal, get in early, a pledge of $375 today will save you 42% off the $649 retail price.

Regardless of a quick walk to the car, or a steady hike through the snow-ridden streets of the city, most of us tend to either sacrifice our vital warmth to look good or look downright ugly to maintain a level state of comfortable heated-ness.

There have been numerous attempts by the most famous inventors of the world – why do you think Einstein’s hair stood up like that before every December photo? He had hat hair – but only now can consumers count on a solution:  the Original Beard Hat.

The design is simple, yet elegant.

Beardo’s knitted beanie sports a soft knitted material and a uniformed pattern, in either black or gray, for just shy of thirty-five bucks.

But wait! The Original Beard Hat comes complete with your choice of knitted brown, black, or ginger beard that attaches to the hat to warmly clothe the user in a sporty state of facial hair, complete with a mouth-hole and a fold away design that allows for the beard to be stored within the beanie in order to create a clean-shaven visage instantaneously.

Beardo will fit any size face, and he does not scratch your face because of the one hundred percent acrylic yarn that is used.

The beard portion comes with sturdy Velcro tabs on either end to either bolster the inside of the beanie, or allow for the sporting of the ginger Beardo that your sister could never grow properly herself.

I will admit that I despise the very notion of carrying and keeping track of an umbrella just to ward off rain. Aside from the pelting liquid bullets not being much of a bother, personally, I never wanted to remain dry so long as I had to spend a lot of time and energy worrying over an umbrella.

What do I mean?

Well, if the wind is blowing hard, there is the sail-likeness to umbrellas that nearly pull the device from one’s hand, or pulls one – umbrella and all – down the slick pavement as though there were roller skates strapped on.

And then you have to remember the not-too-inexpensive umbrella, as it is carried everywhere, and being wet does not go well with others, such as papers in a pack or suitcase. Umbrellas stay out of the bags and are often left behind unless they are thought on and cared for constantly.

The Sabre Umbrella has solved my issue, however, because it is a fun piece that will always remain light in the hand. I do not like umbrellas, normally, but attach one to an actual sabre with a sturdy and spiffy hilt, and I am now in love.

Who would not want a sword that hangs on the shoulder, with its sexy handgrips protruding from a black wrap (which is actually the umbrella folded up) looking absolutely positively bad-ass?

And it is fun to play with! Normal umbrellas beware the forty dollar Sabre Umbrella is sharp!

Do you ever imagine yourself web-slinging around New York like Spiderman, or zipping around the cosmos like the Silver Surfer? To fly around the world in the Mark IV Iron Man armor, terrifying young children with 300+mph flybys, would be quite a thrill. Although, messing with the Department of Defense might be a different story.

You can now be one step closer to Tony Stark with this awesome LED light up arc reactor shirt from ThinkGeek. Yes, it really lights up, and yes, it really is awesome. (Disclaimer: this unfortunately does not keep deadly shrapnel from entering your heart, although we’ve heard car batteries tend to work wonders.)

This shirt is guaranteed to impress your friends at parties or the hottie at the bar. Just don’t get into the nerdy details of how arc reactor technology could hypothetically work in the real world.

It seems that the light can get pretty bright on the shirt, and according to the product page, runs only on 3 AAA batteries. (Don’t ALL arc reactors?) Uni-beam functionality has been disabled on this shirt, but we have yet to officially confirm this. Let us know if you accidentally zap your cat in the process of attempting to use the uni-beam.

I’m a big fan of nerdy comic book shirts, and this Tony Stark light up LED one is no exception.

I think I just found my cheap and easy Halloween costume this year.

Well, you could opt for either the TikTok or the LunaTik watch conversion kit — the kit recently broke the record on KickStarter for funds raised, garnering pledges from willing buyers totaling over $941,000. But then there’s still the issue of the plasticky look.

Nay, for those who want something more manly (especially if you’re strapping a neon pink iPod), the good folks over at ThinkGeek have just the watch strap for you. We’re talking real hand-tooled leather and anodized stainless steel here — what could be more manly than that?

How about a frickin’ bottle opener. Yes, you heard me right. When the folks producing the band realized they could laser cut something into the stainless steel plate used to attach the iPod Nano, they had the A+, Number 1 best idea in the world. Obviously their iPod watches were telling them, “It’s five o’clock somewhere.”

Now, when you aren’t sitting on your couch at home popping open bottles with your Clicker Universal Remote, you can impress your friends while sparing your body parts. Because we all know that opening bottles with your teeth may be cool, but come on. Besides, at $49.99, the watch band is far less than the bill from the orthodontist you’re likely to incur after the New Year’s party.

If you want to give one as a gift this Christmas, there’s still time to order and receive the band before the big day. Check out ThinkGeek’s Holiday Shipping Guide to find out just what method to choose. (If you’re looking to receive one, you’d better update that wish list really soon.) But there’s still plenty of time to receive your order before New Year’s Eve, which is when you may want this the most.

And even if your iPod really is neon pink, this band just may make the guys look past the fact. If it doesn’t work right away, don’t worry. After you bust open enough bottles for them, it definitely will.

The gloves showed up in my mailbox about 3 days later and I was excited to try them out.  They come in a reusable amber UV protect-ant bag that is used for storing the gloves when you’re not using them.  Upon opening the bag I found an instruction sheet with easy to follow instructions accompanied with photos.  You’re probably wondering why you would need instructions for a pair of gloves,  these gloves have a few special instructions to follow.  They need to be dried out in a certain way and stored in the bag they come with to extend their life.

The website advertises these gloves as perfect for sky diving, snorkeling, scuba diving, surfing and swimming.  They have a non slip surface and webbing that increases your surface area or resistance by up to 70%.  I can tell you that the added resistance is real.  I go to the gym on a regular basis and I swim laps about once a week.  I got through half of my normal laps and my arms and chest were burning from the extra effort required when using DarkFin.  These are a great tool to help improve your workout or cut your workout time down while getting the same results.

My kids, 2 and 4 years old, love the gloves too.  They call them my “Batman” gloves and they have a fun time playing with them around the house.  The gloves are cool looking but I have to admit that I did feel a little awkward wearing them at the gym.  I felt a little like that one guy that is always wearing the lifting belt, gloves and cutoff sleeve sweat shirt but never actually lifts a weight.  Maybe I’m too self conscious but in trying to be completely honest in my review I thought you should know.  I put the gloves in my pockets and put them on after getting in the water so it really wasn’t that bad, I’m just worried about looking uncool.

While I was swimming a lady in the lane next to me actually said something about the gloves and told me she had a pair at home that she likes to use sometimes.  The gloves are pretty cool and would make a good Christmas gift for anyone you know who is into water sports.  I had a great experience with the gloves and the company and would recommend them.  You can find out more about them and order a pair for yourself at the DarkFin Gloves website.

Function and fashion have come together in this belt to give you a great looking accessory that will save you time on the slopes.  This belt is made of 100% full grain water-proof leather.  It has a double prong buckle with a built in can opener.  One of the prongs is a #2 Phillips screwdriver and the other is a flat head.

It comes with 8, 10 and 11 mm wrench loops all done in a brushed nickel finish.  This is the ultimate guy belt!  Most serious riders carry a set of tools with them to take care of any mechanical mishaps on the mountain.  This belt will keep your pants up and your bindings tight.  Add some pliers and a blade and this thing could even replace your Leatherman tool.

The uses for this belt extend way beyond the ski slopes so if you’re reading this and you don’t ride you may still be able to find a good reason for why you need this belt.  Do your kids love to take your tools in the backyard and lose them?  Now you can always find a screwdriver when you need it, it’ll be hanging in your closet next to the ties.

Maybe you work on computers for a living but you always wanted to be a superhero.  This belt would pretty much turn you into the batman of IT guys with every tool you need conveniently at your disposal.
