So you’ve recently moved into your new pad and have gotten all the furniture you wanted, but something seems to be missing from the sofa. You pause and think to yourself - pillows! After all, no sofa is complete without this essential and comforting accessory, but somehow or rather none of the pillows you see available on the market appeal to you. Not until your eyes come across this pillow made from luminous fabric. Yes, you can now light up your living room in an eerie glow with all the other lights turned off thanks to special fiber optics technology used in the thread of the garment in lieu of LEDs.

The company making these is LumiGram from Paris, and they have plenty of different items up for grabs that feature the same threads. Of course, if pillows aren’t exactly your thing, you can always choose from a variety of items such as handbags, table clothes, and even a nifty little top to make a fashion statement at a nightclub! Pricing details are unavailable, but wholesale inquiries are welcome.

The theory of relativity from Albert Einstein was one of the most memorable ones left behind by this great scientist and mathematician, and in honor of his theory, the Relativity Watch was invented. No, it won’t be able to send you back in time to right those wrongs you have accumulated over the years, but what it does is tell the time in a very different manner. Instead of having the hour and hand needles move, the Relativity Watch does the opposite and moves the numbers to match the hands instead.

Each $29.99 purchase comes in an attractive gift box and features a genuine leather band in addition to accurate Japanese quartz movement. I must admit while this is a cute idea, there really isn’t any point reinventing the wheel as you can’t tell the time any better than how we do it now - regardless of whether it is digital or analog. Just don’t mess with the way the hands move or throw us those weird binary watches and we’ll be fine.

Let’s say you have long suspected of your maid’s involvement with your man, although you haven’t managed to sniff out any decisive evidence yet despite your intuition going into overdrive each time you confront him. What better way to find out for sure by acting non-chalantly in his presence as if you don’t know any better, leaving the TeleSpy Intrusion Detector Phone to do the job for you? What looks like a standard house phone is actually that and more. The TeleSpy Intrusion Detector comes with integrated motion and audio detectors, capable of calling your cellphone in the event where either sensor is activated to let you eavesdrop on what’s going on in the immediate vicinity.

The TeleSpy Intrusion Detector can be plugged into a standard RJ-11 phone jack which enhances its anonymity. It won’t give you an hour’s length of audio though since it automatically disconnects and re-arms itself after half a minute of listening. The TeleSpy Intrusion Detector retails for $64.99 and is currently available from ThinkGeek.

Thrustmaster is well known for coming up with a bunch of gaming peripherals that give gamers precise controls even under the most stressful gaming situation. The company aims to outdo itself once again by lifting the veil on the Run’N'Drive game pad which works on both console and PC platforms, namely the Playstation 3 Playstation 2. This is one of the very first game pads that work equally well on any game, be they party games, platformers, first person shooters, flight simulators, or even racing games. The main focus of the Run’N'Drive is the Optical Wheel that offers spot-on precision whenever you hit the race tracks. This same Optical Wheel can also be used to zoom in an FPS environment, while aerial stunts and tricks can be pulled off easily in flight simulators.

All buttons on the Run’N'Drive are programmable to suit your needs, and since these buttons are pressure sensitive as well, they really crank up the realism by a few notches, most noticeably when you’re applying brakes or putting the pedal to the metal in a racing game. The Run’N'Drive game pad should be available at a retail store near you at time of publishing.

There is nothing quite like curling up on your favorite sofa with a good book in one hand and a mug of hot chocolate or coffee (depending on the poison of your choice) in another. Of course, the hot chocolate will go better with some biscuits at the side, but having to wash up an extra saucer or plate that held the biscuits can be quite a hassle especially after a long day at work. What better way to overcome this than combine both saucer and mug into a single piece of ceramic ware? This is the exact direction which the Dunker Mug took, featuring a small shelf that let’s you store your favorite tea time cookies inside, ready to be dunked at any second.

Secretaries will find this useful as the Dunker Mug definitely helps them score some points with those seated in the higher echelons of power. The extra space can be used to store something to hasten their promotion, but even if that fails, at least they would have created a good impression which is always a good thing. The Dunker Mug retails for £14.99 and comes in left- and right-handed versions.

With the modern lifestyle offering much more stress compared to our forefathers, it is no wonder taking a nice, warm shower at the end of the day actually washes away a whole lot of stress. Instead of settling for a plain old shower head with different streams of water, why not pamper yourself with the Royal Whale? This whirpool bath provides hydrotherapy to soothe your body, with its warm water capable of treating a wide range of ailments such as arthritis, rheumatism, and a host of back pain problems.

The Royal Whale comes with 14 jets which were strategically positioned to match the Chinese pathway joints on the human skeleton, bringing you a feeling of relief that you’ve never felt before as gentle streams of water massage at your body’s meridians. Unfortunately, such a feeling of bliss is currently out of reach for the average Joe as the Royal Whale currently retails for a jaw-dropping $2,995. If you think that price is exorbitant, bear in mind the normal retail price is a whopping $5,695. Each purchase comes with a free air bubble massage system.
