Since we can’t stop raving about the Logitech Harmony 880 Remote Control, we’re happy to pass along a couple of great deals which we hope may push some of you to finally upgrade. As a reminder, the 880 is a fully programmable universal remote control with a color screen and a charging dock. Thanks to a built in USB port, the 880 can sync with Logitech’s online programming application which contains codes for 150,000 devices, meaning no need for you to create manual macros.

Enough of the talk, now to the great deals. Amazon is selling the 880 for $153.99 and they are offering a $30 rebate if you purchase between 11/28 and 12/4. From what we can see, this is by far the lowest price on the market for a new 880. If you’re not crazy about rebates, consider eCost, which is selling the remote for $149 and you can save $10 by using Google Checkout. If you choose the eCost route, you may want to hurry because supplies are limited.

As holiday shopping season rolls around, we’re on the lookout for unique gifts and stores so you could buy something that’s just a little bit different. One such store is Hammacher Schlemmer, which has been selling unique and innovative high quality products for over 150 years. Their diverse product catalog allows you to buy one of a kind gifts for under $30, a 7-foot robot for a mere $50,000 and even a $108,000 electric car. Where else can you buy a portable 26 foot ice rink for your backyard?

We encourage you to visit their website or consider some of these unique products:

	Next-Generation Robosapien Robot This is the next evolution of the Robosapien, capable of autonomous behavior and equipped with interactive sensors to recognize objects and respond to sounds. It can be programmed to execute more than 60 different movements, including dancing, exploring, lifting items, or bowling (ball and pins included).

	Space-Saving Air-Powered Hockey Table This is the air-powered hockey table with a space-saving design that easily folds out of the way against a wall when floor space is needed for other activities.

	Portable 26 Foot Backyard Ice Rink Easy to assemble portable unit turns any backyard into an ice rink for parties, skating or hockey practice. No tools required.

	Tabletop Wooden Sudoku Game This elegant wooden sudoku set comes with pre-numbered tiles and more than 1,000 puzzles to challenge sudoku enthusiasts who prefer to work conundrums with tactile components rather than pencil and paper.

	Little Red Rocket Sleek battery-powered rocket is outfitted with working lights, push-button sounds, and a blast-off rumble. Easy assembly.

The Interactive Plush Pony. This plush pony is comparable in size to an actual Shetland and uses advanced electronics, integrated sensors, and puppetry to respond when it is touched, hears a sound, or detects changes in ambient light. When her mane is brushed she whinnies; when her ears are tickled she turns her head to see who is grooming her; petting her muzzle will cause her to sniff your hand.

	Genuine Turkish Bathrobe This imported Turkish robe comes from the Denizli region of Turkey. Turkish toweling is legendary for its extraordinary thickness and absorbency.

Robotic Reptile This is the robotic dinosaur that has multiple sensors which detect sound, movement, and touch, allowing it to react to its environment with realistic biomorphic motions including running, stalking, turning its head, whipping its tail, and “sniffing” its prey before pouncing. The dinosaur responds to stimuli depending on one of its three moods, including Hungry, Satisfied, and Subdued.

	6 1/2-Foot Santa’s Day And Night Illuminated Train Unlike typical holiday sculptures that can only reveal their brilliance at night, this 6 1/2′ long Santa’s train is decorated with present-laden tenders, steam billowing from the locomotive’s smokestack, garlands, and painted stars, all of which give the train a three-dimensional appearance, making it noticable during the day.

With the release of Casino Royale, the 21st James bond film, Sony has launched a line of limited edition Bond-branded “James Bond 007 Spy Gear“.

Those of us who don’t work for MI6 can join the ranks of the Double-0 by purchasing a 1GB James Bond 007 Micro Vault USB Flash Drive or a James Bond 007 Cyber-shot® DSC-T50 Digital Camera. If you really want to raid Q’s laboratory, Sony is offering two black aluminum attaché cases, one containing a lightweight VAIO TX notebook PC, a privacy screen, and a Cyber-shot digital camera, while the other holds a pocket-sized VAIO UX notebook PC, a Bluetooth GPS receiver and a Cyber-shot digital camera. Both cases come with en exclusive welcome letter and a serialized acrylic photo certificate. Unfortunately, neither case contains the keys to the Aston-Martin.

Here is the product lineup:

James Bond 007 TX Spy Gear bundle	James Bond 007 TX Spy Gear bundle
Sony James Bond 007 Cyber-shot DSC-T50 Digital Camera	Sony James Bond 007 1GB USB Micro Vault
