OUR FAVORITE TECHIE TOYS

Guilty pleasures that make our life easier or more interesting, even if they have nothing to do with home entertainment.  Sometimes the toys reflect our passions, sometimes they're just very good at making mundane tasks more fun.

Kirk:
Jawbone bluetooth headset.  Finally, a good-sounding cellular ear piece that also makes you easier to be understood on the other end.  And it doesn't make you look like a Borg in the bargain.

Kevin:
Ellie Bleu fountain pen.  It's rectangular with radiused edges, so it's supremely comfortable.  It's also a recent gift from my wife, found at a high-end pen store in Paris, so he's sentimental about it.
