As a bag guy.. I'm excited that The Glade has the full lineup of the Acronym 3RDARM bags on sale.. Now the question is.. When will Acronym update their own site?..

Acronym :: 3RDARM system

Via Gizmag.. If the Yamaha RMAX is a dope sauce UAV.. Then the TGR Helicorp Snark is a badass UAV.. Carbon fibre construction.. 280km/h.. Avionics.. Stealthy to radar and audio.. and a 680kg payload capability.. And oh yeah.. It uses regular diesel as fuel.. Remarkable..

I met Jean-Michel Gauvreau the other day.. And he showed me the furniture he's designed for Gau Designs + Concepts.. His designs are solid and create an interaction between object and user.. Great stuff..

The Yamaha MT-OS is a tough and fast looking streetfighter.. It's definitely one of the better looking concepts from the big name manufacturers..

If you live in a rainy place like I do.. And you lead an active lifestyle.. And you like to listen to your tunes.. Then you might be interested in the Waterwear shuffle.. for the iPod shuffle.. Completely waterproof.. including the headphone jack.. Now I just have to wait for the iPod nano version.. And I'm set..

Pick up the latest issue of BPM at your local bookstores and magazine shops.. Inside you'll find an interesting article of what Errolson Hugh of Acronym has been up to.. Since the Acronym site has remained stagnant for almost a year now.. You'll also find news and articles on everything on the music scene and more..

Via Gizmag.. The EcoRacer by VW represents a greener future for sports cars.. With the combination of a diesel powerplant with a carbon fibre body.. This transforming roadster/coupe can go from 0-100 km/h in 6.3 seconds.. And only consumes 3.4 litres per 100 km.. I truly believe that for the near future in North America.. Diesel is the answer.. Europe already knows this..

The Muzikwear T allows you to integrate your small form factor mp3 player with your t-shirt.. Player goes in the sleeve pocket.. Cordage in the shoulder storage.. And earphones out the spinal port..

The Scion Installation further connects young car buyers with their mark..

Brighten your bookshelf with the Light Reading booklamp.. Blends in with it's bookshape.. When switched off.. the lamp is matte black.. When switched on.. lights up white with the name of the lamp in black.. Cool..

Sam Johnson :: Light Reading..

I like Klaus Aalto's Take Out.. A dresser with pull out drawers that double as portable cases.. However, I would have added a cover that automatically flips down to cover the hole left after pulling out the drawer..

And yes.. as predicted.. The next gen iPods add video to their repertoire.. Thinner profile and bigger screen than previous models.. Flavorized in white/black with 30gig/60gig.. But what is more notable is the new iMac G5.. which comes with more horsepower under the hood.. a built-in iSight and the new Front Row media software.. Remote control included.. If you want a clean/uncluttered desktop.. I think this is even better than a Mac mini..

If you're a fan of MAV's.. You might be interested in this indoor rc airplane by Plantraco.. Comes fully assembled in it's own protective case.. Uses tech components to keep the plane small and light.. Watch the video and be amazed at this MAV's controlability..

The Doze makes for a great bed to sleep in.. But one can also take a step back from it and admire it.. I love the cantilever design and the multiple configs..

A room divider/shelf.. Becomes a room divider/shelf/chair/table.. Via the Shelflife System designed by Charles Trevelyan..

High-end jetfighter performance takes a step closer to being a reality for some lucky consumers.. Thanks to a successful maiden flight by the ATG Javelin that I mentioned about last April.. Watching the video reminded me of a F-14/F-16 crossbreed.. Where can I find two million bucks.. hmmmm..

ATG Javelin...

Get your two scoops worth from the Brknhome interview.. These guys make sick shirts that I'm proud to wear.. Kenta and Josh are down to earth guys with concepts that are way above.. You can find their gear at reputable stores.. More info at Brknhome..

Brknhome :: Kenta G...

I like the exhaust design of the Walz VLV.. The back wheel is nice too.. Too bad it's a little too "chopper" for my taste.. Maybe shorten the bike.. and decrease the rake a bit..
