We’ve seen all sorts of bikinis in stores before, but don’t be surprised when you come across the Binkini in the near future! This innovative piece of clothing is but a bra for your butt. Yes, you no longer have to settle for expensive plastic surgery procedures to get that rear end of yours lifted up - instead, slip on the Binkini and see an instant difference when you take a look at the mirror. The patented Binkini retails for $30 and has a series of straps that you wear around the waist and under your bum cheeks to shape, tone, lift and support your derriere for an instant and significant effect. Males can settle for the more expensive $40 Maniki. Not entirely hi-tech, but it does get the job done without much hassle.

Goldstriker is a name synonymous with luxury, and this time round they have done yet another number on the iPhone. You won’t find this iPhone model studded with diamonds though, as Goldstriker decided to just give it a gold heavy treatment, calling it the Black Night Edition. Both the front bezel and Apple logo located on the back of the iPhone will be covered in precious 24 carat gold, and the paint job given is the same paint that is used in the Bentley diamond black metallic range for an added touch of luxury. You will have to dig relatively deep for this, as the 16GB 1.1.4 model will retail for £699.95.

Tag Heuer is synonymous with watches, but it doesn’t want to be left out of the luxury cell phone segment as well. After all, the Vertu features extremely insane prices, and yet there is enough market for it to sustain sales at swanky boutiques across the world, so why can Tag Heuer do the same? You won’t find diamond-studded handsets here, but it does look solid and luxurious enough to warrant a four-digit price tag. Co-developed with Modelabs, the Meridiist comes in an all-metal casing, complete with a sapphire crystal screen, a 2-megapixel camera, multimedia playback capability, a 1.9″ QVGA display, Bluetooth connectivity and a battery life that supports up to 7 hours of talk time. Pricing ranges from €3,400 to €3,900, depending on the customizations you decide to throw in. Anyone lusting after the Meridiist this second quarter?

I know everyone is gunning for Olympic gold this year in Beijing, but what about those of us who are too poor to afford a ticket there and see all the ceremonies and favorite track event? Well, console yourself with a little bit of bling on your desk with the Zip-Ang handmade gold keyboard. Before you start sweating beads, let me assure you that being handmade doesn’t necessarily mean expensive, as evident by the $214.21 price tag attached to this handmade gold keyboard. It isn’t made completely of solid gold (hence the price), but being covered with Midas’ favorite substance is more than enough for bragging rights. Should you detest gold, there are always other friendlier colors to choose from, including pink, yellow, and red.

Alcatel has rolled out a brand new handset known as the Sharper Image 909TSI, accompanying the Playboy OT-V770A which was released at the same time. This time, it comes in the standard candybar form factor which we are all familiar with, and with a touch of bling as well as the Sharper Image 909TSI is covered in a choice of 24k gold or Platinum. Unfortunately, the specifications betray this quad-band GSM’s fine looks as it comes with a mere 2 megapixel camera, a tiny screen, standard Bluetooth connectivity and a memory card slot. What, no 3G or HSDPA? Well, if you prefer looks over substance, the Alcatel Sharper Image 909TSI can be yours from Sharper Image and Sears stores later this year at a yet undisclosed price.

LG has tied up with Marvel to bring Iron Man’s Mark 3 suit to the showfloors of CTIA 2008 in Las Vegas, and the 6 foot 4 inch armor is not only there to draw crowds to its booth but help promote a special edition of the LG Shine handset known as Iron Man. while the original LG Shine has been around since January last year, this hasn’t stopped LG from coming up with a special edition version. I personally think that this effort is noble, but to bestow such an honor on an aging handset like this does not do justice to Marvel’s genius. Iron Man’s color scheme of red and gold are replicated on this special edition Iron Man Shine cell phone. No word on when it will be available nor how much it costs, but other than the cosmetic changes, everything else inside remains the same.

Ladies, ladies. How many times have you actually rushed out from your home only to realize that you have forgotten to bring your cell phone with you, much less your house keys? This interesting LadyBag ensures such a thing doesn’t happen ever again, featuring RFID tagging technology that ensures your keys, purse and cell phone are inside the back before the smiley face lights up. Should you fail to include any of these three essential items, the item’s corresponding logo will appear on the LED display as a reminder. I wonder whether this concept will see future iterations include voice reminders. It would be good if they included a traveling make-up kit indicator as well just in case you need to freshen up before that big date of yours at a posh downtown restaurant.

Getting fresh air and enough oxygen with each breath is getting harder and harder these days, considering the amount of industrialization that has gone on in many parts of the world. Never mind, there is always this Portable Oxygen Bar that claims to be able to perk you up without the negative effects of caffeine in your coffee. While you might look pretty weird attaching this to your nose at work, at the very least you’ll be the last one laughing as your oxygen-pumped brain will be able to come up with winning strategies that impresses the boss. Unfortunately, I’m not too sure whether the $660 price tag makes it appealing enough to try out.
