I just found this most excellent stop-motion short film, The Art of Motion, on Google Video. It employs a clever, albeit low-tech, approach to animation, and the way each snippet syncs with the soundtrack is pretty remarkable. Think: Gumby meets The Matrix. —Megan Miller

The problem inherent to the digital video recorder (DVR) is that you have to be home to watch what you record. But this portable video recorder syncs with Dish Network's DVRs, so whatever is saved at home is copied over and ready to hit the road. Choose from a 2.2-inch screen with 20 gigs of space (20 hours of MPEG-2 video), a 4-inch screen with 30 gigs, or a 7-inch with 40 gigs. $330â€$600
