Aug 10, 2012 3:20 PM   Standard iPhone charging cables are pretty boring, and they're practically begging to get covered in a layer of gray grime. These snazzy cables are much more fun, it's just too bad they're going to be outdated so soon. Available from Eastern Collective, these robust little guys come in four different color schemes, all of which beat that hell out of what came with your iPhone.

Portable, stylish USB cables with micro-USB, mini-USB, and Apple 30-pin connectors. The gadget fiend on the go. Sharp angles, a stiff charcoal-colored body, bright accent colors and pocket clips. Not your average cable. Slip them in a bag or pocket, and use them like any other USB cable. They don't tangle. Ever. They're too rigid. The same thing that makes these cables so great and non-tangly makes them maddening to use. The MicroUSB cable wouldn't fit the connector on the Sony RX100. The cable works with other devices, and the RX100 works with other MicroUSB cables. Bizarre. Used in various configurations with a MacBook Pro, iPhone, Mophie, mini Belkin power strip, and a Sony RX100 camera.Without a flat surface and 6-10 inches of room directly in front of whatever port you're ...

Jul 24, 2012 9:00 PM   You could go crazy with a backpack purchase—there are some giant models that would fit a military bunker's worth of stuff. But what if you need something substantial that's also appropriate for carting your laptop into the office each week? Uncrate has teamed up with Topo Designs for a lightweight day backpack ($89). If you suffer from that awful curse where you somehow lose things inside your bag, you'll like this one for its bright orange lining. It comes with a government-issue knife with a two and a half inch blade, and it's got moisture wicking straps, so your back won't be soaked in sweat whether you're commuting to work or hiking off in the wilderness.
