Say it ain’t so! Just a week after HP’s totally adorable 2133 Mini-Note PC popped online for purchase, we’ve received word that pre-orderers aren’t going to be seeing their new machine quite as soon as originally expected. Reportedly, HP has sent out notifications to customers who pre-ordered to let them know that their lappies won’t be shipping today as promised, but there’s no word on how long the delay will last. Hang in there, subnote lovers — a tracking number is bound to come soon (er, we hope).

[Thanks, Brian]

You load the music of your choice through a USB 1.1 interface. The MP3 watch has a built-in microphone for voice-recording, so you can blackmail your boss easily. The lithium battery charges in 1.5 hours with a play-time of 4.5 hours. The watch can also be used as a file storage or USB flash disk. Wow, I just need a watch and I’m set to go, wherever.

With no moving parts, this MP3 player is equipped to handle an shocks as it will resist them with skip-free audio playback. The built-in flash storage of 512MB will hold & play up to 80 songs, in the MP3 format that is. A great holiday gift idea for any enthusiast. Cost, $200.

These Muji Waterproof Speakers are perfect for those folks who are adept at listening to their MP3 player while doing a spot of underwater basket weaving. How many times have I been struggling with that tricky underwater basket weave & thought, ‘Man, I could really use some Yellow Submarine right now’? Loads & loads (of crap).

Anyhoo, anyone interested in singing along to your tunes while underwater (doing whatever you do underwater whilst listening to the latest tune), these Muji waterproof speakers are just for you. Just plug in, play & dive into your fav songs. Cost, $35.

It was only a matter of time till the next Hello Kitty post, and now the wait is finally over. Hooray (enter a small amount of sarcasm here)!

Say hello to the new Hello Kitty Laptop & iPod straight out of Japan. With only 100 pieces to hit store, these kitties are going to be flying off the shelves faster than you can meow.

The Hello Kitty Laptop is an Epson NA101, white edition with a 12.1″ screen and a whole lot of power by a Celeron M 423. Bundled along with this kitty of a laptop, comes the 4 GB pink iPod Nano with a Hello Kitty design etched on the back. Do I hear holiday gift idea? Well then, you better scurry along & try to find you one out of 100!

Well, no matter how you feel about punk-pop singer P!nk’s talent or lack thereof, the lady has signed with German company Trekstor to release a P!nk edition MP3 player.

The new MP3 player is fairly slim, compact, quiet when you need it to be & not badly priced, so this new MP3 has nothing in common with the real Pink it looks like. The player comes in two options, pink/silver with white LEDs or black/silver with pink LEDs, both options come preloaded with images of the punky singer which you’ll immediately have to take off once you’ve received it.

All in all, I’m giving this one a thumbs down, way down.

The Saint B Cross MP3 Player is a cross necklace as well as an MP3 player. Now you can identify your religion as well as listen to tunes while you’re on your way about town.

I’m thinking this could be a fabulous gift for the Pope around the holidays. What do you think?

Forever Geek is reporting that after the disappointing Sony flash MP players of yore, Sony has now corrected their many mistakes & come out with a new & better Sony Walkman for those runners out there.

The MP3 will be available in 1 & 2GB capacities & you’ll be able to pick from about any color imaginable after the initial black, gray & pink are a big success.

In addition to all your tunes, this little guy can tell you how many calories you burned on your jog. Don’t worry if you get a few clouds, this Sony MP3 is waterpoof, so feel free to jump into that inviting puddle.

Hong Kong gadget shop Brando has up for grabs an all-in-one-pen. The USB pen features an MP3 Player, voice recorder & FM radio, so while it still does the old-fashioned “writing”, you can listen to your tunes & news as well.

This electronically-enhanced writing tool can be yours today for just $48, cheaper than an iPod but more expensive than a Bic.

The iPod deck features four integrated & moisture-free speakers, an audio selector that allows you to play iPod shuffle, integrated toilet paper holder that can be easily folded as a stereo dock & can easily be removed from the wall mount.

Sounds good to me. The lightest toilet & iPod-equipped toilet paper, a match made in heaven. Cost, $100.
