Are you a bit of a klutz? Then this keyboard was made for you. Go ahead, drop you soda, burger or fries - this keyboard can handle it all. The Logitech keyboard is the keyboard that truly loves a wash.
Carrying an endless amount of gadgets & cases everywhere can be a chore on it own. With the SeV Fleece 7.0 jacket, they are all within arms length- literally.

This camera is on every production pros holiday wish list.
This cam boasts a 30% smaller and 25% lighter body, with a resolution that’s up to 4x higher, along with a built-in WiFi. The bad boy that makes the most waves is the Black Edition, which is capable of 4K and 2.7K resolutions, though the more affordable Silver and White Editions max out at a not-too-shabby 1080p.
Swivl is a fun little gadget that works as an adjustable stand for your iPhone. It lets users control it remotely and is probably the easiest way to direct yourself in a video without needing to get a camera person involved.
Apple TV is a tiny powerhouse that plays content you love like iTunes, Netflix, Hulu Plus, YouTube, and your favorite sports on your TV. Just plug it in and discover a whole world of movies, TV shows, photos, music, and more.
Ever heard of Minox? They created the sleek silver spy camera the CIA used in the 40s, the same camera James Bond used. This is their new camera, a teeny replica of the Leica M3. It’s got all the details of the original, down to a moving “film advance” lever and side loops for a tiny camera strap. This would make for quite the stocking stuffer!
Perfect for keeping drinks hot on the go, these lenses are fitted with easy to clean, heat preserving, stainless steel lining. Now, picture yourself having the coolest desk in the office with your hot cup of coffee or scoop of ice cream straight out of a Canon L-lens.
This lens will transform your cell phone photos from “eh” to “amazing!” by giving you stunningly sharp details. See the curious detail of your own eye or see what an ant’s face really looks like! The band slides easily onto your phone, so you won’t miss any more shots fumbling for a lens.
The second this cell phone came out, it was already sold out. Enough said.
This wireless, projected keyboard connects to your mobile device via Bluetooth and looks like you’re basically living in the future while doing it.
The Parrot Drone 2.0 is a flying HD camera equipped robotic drone you can control with your iPhone. Whether you use it to shoot a short video or to spy on your neighbors, this gadget is sure to put a smile on any techie’s face.
