No popular gadget is safe from the likes of ColorWare, and now the Beats Solo by Dr. Dre have fallen prey to get a color makeover too. Everything from the earcups, to Beats by Dr. Dre’s logo can be repainted with the color of your choice. A paint job will run you $399 for a new pair, or you can send in your old pair to have it painted for $199. Unfortunately, the page doesn’t say if these are the first gen Beats Solo or the newer Beats Solo HD that were announced at CES.

Every new digital audio player that comes out gets slicker than the previous one, but there is still something to say about the beauty of the old analogue machines of yore.

The player also supports all record sizes and even ...
Sometime ago we wrote about Designer Dr. Romanelli’s take on Hello Kitty and the special collaboration with Sanrio and MEDICOM TOY.

The design is still intact showing all of the world Hello Kitty’s guts. So for those with a bit of twisted humor can purchase them for $99 each. Too bad a USB flash drive wasn’t added ...
