The much anticipated Helio Ocean hit the market Friday and hardcore Helio fans like LilPeaPod couldn’t be more excited. It’s being marketed as the "world’s first dual slider that has it all."

The "all" includes: full keyboard, separate numeric keypad, idle screen search, video, camera, e-mail, text messaging, AIM and audio with stereo bluetooth. Of course, it also supports Helio Music, GPS-enabled services and applications and photo caller ID.

While the device was released more than a month in advance of the iPhone, some people are saying it will give the Apple phone a run for its money. In fact the last time I checked more than 50 percent of people who voted on Gizmodo’s Helio Ocean vs. Apple iPhone poll had chosen the Helio.

The archetype of a table lamp now floats in a swimming pool. Waterproof is designed by Hector Serrano for Metalarte. Watch them bob gently on the surface like ghostly lamps. The rechargeable lamps are moulded from tough, waterproof polyethylene and cost around $450 each. Darkness would be cheaper but not half as cool or half as much fun. The lamps provide light for 6 hours.

These lamps would make for a wonderful late night pool party. Now all I need is a pool.

Why does this just make sense… Homer Simpson and Xbox joining together to bring you this bright yellow, Simpsons themed Xbox 360. The new Xbox will be hitting stores during the summer months as the company will be partnering with FOX to help promote ’The Simpsons’ Movie. Although it’s only the 20GB Xbox 360 Pro instead of the Elite, I imagine it is still going to make a few gamers drool. I mean, 89 percent of Xbox gamers love the Simpsons right? Isn’t being Simpsons-obsessed a prerequisite to owning an Xbox?

Maybe it’s not quite as uber-strong as the HAL-5 exoskeleton (above), the Tokyo University of Science’s Muscle Suit is still nothing to be laughed at. Exchanging actual muscle usage for gadgetry, the powered suit lets you lift things your normally couldn’t on your own, like Rush Limbaugh.

The suit’s not portable, though; an external compressor and air regulation system are required to activate the pneumatics. This means it’ll likely find insdustrial uses, like in factories or in the garage of Lohan’s coke dealer.

It’s not commercial yet, so no price, but we see this little sub-market blowing up in the next few years as industrialists try to come up with new ways to make their poor workers more productive.

The HAL-5 exoskeleton (below), on the other robotic hand, can now be rented for just $590 a month for the next year, basically allowing anyone who saw Robocop to live out their fantasy of being a living-cyborg with superhuman strength.

If you had $600 to blow on renting the suit for a month, what would you do with it? I’d probably show up to an 80s dance party and start doing the robot the way it was meant to be done. That and I’d chuck cars left and right for giggles.

Of course right now the suit is useless for me. Until these can make you jump 50 feet in the air and outrun trains, I don’t see this as something I would buy.

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen a pay phone, but then again, I don’t live in Moscow either. After hearing Comstar UTS and Moscow’s City Telephone Network plan to construct 200 Wi-Fi pay phones in Moscow, I was all ears.

RF Design explains how new phone booths scheduled to be installed in Moscow will allow all Comstar customers access to access the internet. The new phone boxes are said to be installed in train stations, airports and hotels as customers will be able to use pre-paid cards, SIM cards and MGTS phone cards to access the internet.

These new and improved pay phones will let people connect to a Wi-Fi network using their laptops.
