When looking for an air sanitizer there are a few key aspects that anyone looks for: effectiveness, size, and cost. Well the Ecobox by Ecoquest can handle up to 1500 square feet, is only 8″ cubed, and is less than $300. The Ecobox kills germs ranging from ecoli to samonilla, gets rid of odors such as cigarette smoke, and is literally whisper-quiet. Aside from looking like it belongs under your TV the Ecobox is small enough to fit anywhere inconspicuously unless your home looks like a museum.

While Appl’s multitasking on the iPhone isn’t quite up to par, maybe they can learn a little something this Cydia app with it’s Exposé-like UI for app switching.

“Multifl0w is a multitasking interface for jailbroken iPhones. It was originally created for 3.1.2, but after Apple released iOS4, there was still high demand for an alternative solution. Multifl0w was originally a cards-style interface similar to that seen on Palm’s WebOS, but Multifl0w 2.0 is an Exposé-like interface. It was entirely rewritten for speed, performance, reliability, and for iOS4, iPad, and iPhone 4.”

For those willing to pay $100 + dollars, Bose is rolling out a trio of headphones that will make your decision that much harder to choose to from. Its understandable since phones and music players are now basically inseparable. The IE2 has been engineered for portable media players while the MIE2 and MIE2i are both designed to handle calls and tunes. The trio will all feature Bose’s proprietary TriPort acoustic headphone structure and StayHear tips that will supposedly stay lodged regardless of activity. Both the IE2 and MIE2 will be available this month while the Apple-specific MIE2i  will be out sometime in October for $130. From experience, Bose might be more on the expensive side but their products are well worth it.

Do you download a lot of stuff that may or may not be legitimate? Music, Movies, Games, TV Shows, and Software aren’t always easy to snag from your favorite torrent sites, so what are you to do? Check out news groups. First things first. News groups are not free. You need to pay to have a usenet provider and an optional usenet search membership. This costs about $12 a month. If you’re the type that eats up entire dvd iso images, albums, and software then this is a drop in the bucket. Did we mention speed? Because you’re paying for a usenet provider that means you don’t have to hope a peer will allow you to leech. You get direct downloads. To put it into perspective on a standard FIOS connection a complete album takes about 25 seconds to download. Hit the jump to read up on how to get in on the action.

In order to get started you will need three things:
1. A Usenet provider, we use SuperNews ($10/month)
2. A Usenet search engine, we use Newzbin (~$2/month) and nzbs ($FREE)
3. A Usenet client, we use SABnzbd ($FREE)

First purchase a membership from the Usenet provider, then download and install SABnzbd. SABnzbd is a Usenet client that takes care of accessing the Usenet server, downloading, and unpackaging your items. The great thing about SABnzbd is that it’s web based so it doesn’t matter if you’re running Mac, PC, or Linux and it’s a snap to setup with the web based configuration tool. Now that you have a provider and client installed it’s time to start downloading. Hit up your favorite Usenet search site, pick what you want and download the nzb file. If you setup SABnzbd correctly the download will start automatically. Once it’s done downloading all of the pieces SABnzbd combines, decompresses and places your new goods in a complete folder when you can use it. It sounds confusing at first, but once you go news group you’re going to wonder why it took so long to make the switch.

We’re rocking our new Droid X and love it’s beastly size, but we definitely had concerns about protecting all of that screen real estate. The solution? Meet the Steinheil Ultra Crystal Screen Protector. Unlike the stock Verizon screen protector this one covers the entire face of the Droid X not just the visible screen. It’s got a hard surface coating to protect from stratches, anti-UV, bubble free installation, and truly is crystal clear. Installation was a snap with the included micro fiber cloth, dust grabbing stickers, and squeegee. If you’re like us and just toss your phone into your pocket then you need to protect your most import asset. Each package comes with two protectors and they’re available for other devices as well.

Many of us are starting to use our computers more and more to consume music, movies, and even television. The problem with this picture is that not all of us have massive monitors and stereo systems to really enjoy all of this wonderful content. XBMC is media center software that is easy to use, fully customizable, and works on virtually any computer platform. The best part about XBMC? It’s absolutely free. Now you’re probably wondering “That’s nice, how do I get it on my TV?” Well the folks over at LifeHacker wrote up a nice little guide to build a silent and miniscule dedicated media center for about $200. You can read the guide here. Another cool feature with XBMC is that you can even set it up as a video game emulator to play all of those classic ROMs you have floating around your computer.

What is it about powerful lasers that we love? The Istapark 532nm is no exception. The build quality is pretty nice and it feels great in the hand. The rear push button toggle switch gives it a tactical feel that is pretty much unmatched by other laser pointers. For actual uses, well you almost have us stumped. For the astronomer type we could see this being used outdoors at night, where the beam is completely visible, to point at the sky. For the young executive, well you will probably blind people trying to point at your chart deck. If you’re neither of those then we suppose you can just point at stuff and show your friends what a cool toy this thing is.

If you haven’t noticed, portable speakers are getting smaller and smaller. It’s crazy how much sound can come from such tiny speakers, however the down side is that there is usually no bass. The DigiZoid ZO Personal Subwoofer is here to change that. It’s not your conventional headphone amplifier, equalizer, or artificially produced 3D sound effect. Instead, the Zo is said to define a new category of sound system – an electronic subwoofer. The Zo fits in your pocket and provides booming audio with 32 bass intensity settings. Unlike anything you’ve heard before, the Zo uses SmartVector sound countering technology which adjusts equalization to provide optimum sound reproduction from any speaker with matched acoustic response.

Nope this isn’t a new product, but it is pretty close to essential. Time Capsule provides 1 or 2 TB of wireless headache free storage for your PC and MAC. Time capsule is actually a dual band wireless N router with a hard drive. This means that it can be connected to seamlessly integrate with your Mobile Me account and give you access to your iDisk from anywhere you have an Internet connection. What’s that mean? A lot.

In a time where everything is bling or made out of shiny plastic, its nice to change it up every now and then. BP custom Woodworks offers attractive hard drives enclosed in rich woods like Maple and Zebra Wood. Each are hand oiled and polished with a 500GB hard drive and USB2.0 connection.
