The coolest new tech products.

Bored? Why not keep yourself stimulated with the new Sony Ericsson F305 motion gaming phone. Its 2-inch screen and 8 hours of game play should do the trick and keep your mind from wandering. Because it’s not every day you can dial a phone number one minute and then be entertained the next minute using the phone’s O and X buttons (similar to the Sony PlayStation). But the real fun about this phone is its built-in motion sensor for games that require actual movement and loud stereo speakers, dedicated to the full gaming effect. www.sonyericsson.com
Do not judge a pen by its exterior. The Discreet 2GB pen was designed to record up to 64 hours of sound, using a built-in microphone. Although it looks and feels like a ballpoint pen, the secret is that it can capture quality sound with no indication of doing so. It can also transfer 2GB of data and plays up to 1,000 songs in MP3 or WMA format with excellent resonance. www.skymall.com
The future of wireless communication is now. Skype software has leaped from visual conversations using a computer, to visual talk time over a mobile phone. For all you on-the-go professionals, the ASUS AIGuru SV1 Skype allows for users to not only make unlimited phone calls whenever, wherever, but to also view one another using the videophone’s built-in Webcam on its 7-inch display screen. With 802.11 b/g and Ethernet through a router, the AIGuru SV1 stands in a category of its own. www.asus.com
Finally, a smartphone that allows for the ultimate Web experience. As simple as a tap on its screen, the new T-Mobile G1, powered by Google Android, provides easy access into all of your favorite Google applications. With its full keyboard that slides out from underneath the screen, IM, text and email have never been more user friendly. Not to mention a 1GB memory card for cool tunes and a 3MP camera to capture those finer moments in life. You may now kiss the phone. www.t-mobilegl.com
With its compact form and increased storage space, the new Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 is taking the digital camera industry by storm. This miniature camera is so small it can sit snugly in your pocket. But while the Cyber-shot DSC-T700 is small in size, it is big on internal memory and photo resolution: it was built with 4GB of internal memory, as well as 921,000 pixel resolution, for more quality and longer-lasting moments.
