Steinway Lyngdorf’s Model D Speakers literally cost an arm and a leg, and are targeted towards (well-heeled) audio aficionados. Finishes include black lacquer, fine woods, gold and chrome.

The Lenovo ThinkPad W700 is a beast: it tips the scales at over 8 lbs. However, it’s the first laptop to have a built-in Wacom tablet. A 1GB Quadro card doesn’t hurt, either.

Dell has a slew of new laptops today; our favorite is the mainstream E6400, which hits the feature-to-size sweet spot with a 14.1″ display and up to 19 hours of battery life with SSD.

COSMIC MOTORS is a fantastic, albeit fictional look at spaceships and their totally smokin’ pilots. It’s written by Daniel Simon, who in real life has worked for Bugatti and Lamborghini.

Knomo’s Bungo 15″ Messenger Bags look upscale due to the genuine leather flaps and sides, but their nylon construction makes them highly durable and functional.

Samsung’s U800 “Soul b” is part of their fashion line; we really dig the brushed metal finish. The cellphone obviously ranks high in design, but is also easy to use and sounds great.
