Son, since you’ve been so good in school this year and done all your chores I’ve decided to get you an iPod- notepad. “Dad you suck”. “Work on your penmanship, kid. Here’s an expensive pen I’ll give you as a gift that you’ll never use”. “Thanks Dad. Mommmmmm, can I get an iPod? Puhhlease.”
Really as far as notebooks good, these are pretty freakin’ cool. Look, I wrote my own app- it’s called Tic-Tac-Toe. I’m going to be a paper app store Apple millionaire. Here’s another free app for your Notepod called “shopping list”. I’m still working in my Doodle app. Ok, I guess if you really were an application designer, you could sketch out some ideas on these but what about the rest of us?

The stresswatch is still a concept device, but it certainly looks like something everybody wouldn’t mind receiving as a gift, especially in an office environment where stress levels are high. This watch will have an indicator to display your stress levels, probably by reading your pulse, body heat or whatever else gives away your stress levels, though we doubt it can read your facial expressions. Oh, let’s not forget its most important feature – it also tells the time. Now we only have to wait for this concept to turn into reality.

Macworld has spotted a new page over on Apple’s website highlighting their dedication to making their products as environmentally healthy as possible. We’ve seen this pitch from Apple within the past few years — they’ve recently slimmed down their packaging and started using recyclable materials in making their computers. It’s pretty interesting to see them making such a push on this issue, but then again it not only helps them sell computers (assuming they don’t have to raise prices too high due to the new policies), but of course helps the culture and the Earth at large in terms of making sure our environmental footprints are as small as possible. The new site includes information about the impact of Apple’s products both during manufacture and during usage, as well as reports on product performance, as well as a blog on what they’re doing lately. They also have a link to their recycling program so that when you’re done with whatever Apple products you’re using, you can make sure that those recyclable products are actually recycled.

One of the Architectural Furniture designs is actually available on Amazon; the home office is sold for about $8,767, which is one pricey desk, chair, shelves and drawers. No word on the other two designs availability at this time.

Got a large home you’d like to subdivide for privacy or partition off to create a home office area? Here’s a modular PVC wall divider system that can connect up to 5 screens while also powering a built-in lighting system. The system is comprised of middle unit, which plugs in and powers an internal lighting system. A 3 screen room divider is 30 1/4″w x 8 5/8″d x 72 3/4″h and costs $1999 from InMod. Admittedly not cheap, but a whole lot easier than building or tearing down a wall.
