I must admit, i’m not a modding aficionados, but this new glowing green Xbox 360 neon case from XCM looks great, specially with the semi-translucent look that provides inner glance at the console itself. There’s no word on price but it should be available soon, so if you’re looking for a unique design for your gaming box, this might be a nice solution.

First time I’ve encountered with this picture, i thought it’s an old fashioned purse, designed for super-chic grannies. Turns out i was totally wrong, It is a Nintendo DS Lite, turned into a crappy piece of coated spangling pearls, courtesy of King Deco. I mean, seriously, what were they thinking, is there anyone in this planet that consider buying this thing? I guess not, unless you’re a DS collector.

Creative has decided to broaden its Zen lineup by adding new sporty colors, including pink and red. There’s no special cause behind it, just a stylish move to offer the player to customers with different flavor. Beyond that, everything else pretty much stays identical to the previous models, including the 2.5-inch TFT display (320 x 240), storage capacity - ranged from 2GB up to 32GB, SD/SDHC slot, FM radio and more. Mind you, the pink version is exclusively available in Walmart, as the red one appears at Buy.com. Checkout the full specs after the break.

Microsoft plans to launch a Joy Division limited edition version of its Zune MP3 player, courtesy for the the band’s Unknown Pleasures DVD release on June 10th. To shed more info, Unknown Pleasures is the first album by Joy Division, released in 1979. In 2000, Q Magazine has placed this great album at number 19 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever, as Pitchfork Media placed it at number 9 in its list of the 100 Greatest Albums of the 1970s, so it’s very exciting to see a company like Microsoft, making this nice gesture, by endorsing the band with a special Zune edition, that will be designed by Peter Saville, the original graphic designer behind the Joy Division album covers.

Update: There are 500 copies available in the US for $400, coming in a luxury package.

I don’t really like this whitish Xbox 360 color, i think it’s dull and pale. To serve my desires (and others), XCM has created a really cool chrome Xbox 360 case, compatible with the HDMI ports. This new metallic mirrored shell will shine on your desk for merely $60, but if you want a matchable skin for your controllers, it should be $25 each, which makes this  escapade a bit expensive and very smudgy.

I really like the new Art Nouveau cases from Korean company 3Rsystem, it is chic, stylish and very high-end designed. This new “R240 GRACE” lineup features mirrored black or white faceplates, adorned with nice illustrations and made of high glossy bezel. In addition, it has an impressive reddish LCD screen at the bottom and a built-in iMON, to control your multimedia wirelessly. No word on availability, but if you want to get one of these, it will cost you between $70 - $80.

So many rumors are floating around the Meizu M8 cellular-player concerning launching date, interface design, iPhone cloning issues and more. One of the latest rumbling refers to the following pictures, presenting the presumably GUI of the M8 device. Although we have no resource to verify the authenticity, it sure looks different from previous publications and distinguishes the Meizu from the iPhone. Stay tuned for the next scuttlebutt, in days to come.

Hey boys… hey girls, iPod Shuffle gets inlaid. This 18 Karat diamond encrusted was created by jeweler artist, Thomas Heyerdahl, in purpose to be auctioned for charity in London. If you care for a lavish 1GB mp3 player, made of white and pink gold, just open your wallets and count $40,000 - it’s for a good cause, so don’t be stingy.

Do me a favor, don’t hang out with this USB bomb drive in your bag, once it goes live. Designed by Joel Escalona, the threatening device might be a nice decoration on your desk but very suspicious on the go. Judging its size, it can host like 500GB of storage or a ton of gunpowder but as we already implied, it is only a prototype, thank god.

This new USBee flash drive concept won the first prize at the MS Industrial USB Competition. It features a bending neck (whatever it means), a ventilation cooling system to provide  chilled air around the circuit board (redundant), and a detachable cap that hooks at the back. No word on storage capacity or production, but i think i’m starting to like this “Bee-stick” design, only from the outside, nothing else.

I really like this Naja King stand, providing a nice 360º position grip for your iPhone or iPod Touch devices. This clean designed holder is a flexible three foot metal cable, packed with 7 non-scratching finger grippers that can sit on your desk as an artifact. If this thing looks snaky to you, bear in mind that “Naja” stands for Cobra snakes. This baby cost $40, pretty pricey for a cable.
