The Eight Coolest Peripherals for Your Computer

 

1. The Logitech Di Novo Edge Keyboard

This rechargeable wireless keyboard is not only easy on the eyes, but also lives up to its hefty price tag with its abundant specifications. It connects using Bluetooth technology, it has a touchpad included (like on laptops), volume control, and a wireless range of 30 feet just for starters.

2. The Logitech Revolution MX

Another Logitech item hits the top ten. This mouse is wireless and rechargeable, and is also very sleek.
The biggest selling point on this mouse is its two scroll wheel modes. Free spin (as Logitech puts it "for hyper-fast, nearly frictionless scrolling") or click-to-click mode (which uses "an ultra-precise ratchet-scrolling mechanism").

3. Seagate FreeAgent Pro

This external hard drive comes in many different sizes, and can use many different interfaces. The sizes include 320GB, 500 GB, and 750 GB, and can use FireWire, USB 2.0, or eSata. The design is very good looking, and has a speed of 7200 RPM. This particular hard drive comes with useful software, and when turned on, the upright design has an orange glow.

4. Sennheiser HD 595

Sennheiser has always been an excellent name when it comes to audio devices. This pair of headphones has had excellent reviews, all of them deserving. These headphones give a more forward, livelier presentation and are very well-balanced. The headband is pleather, and the ear cups are velour.

5. OCZ Roadster

Although it only comes in 1 gigabyte of storage space, this very portable flash drive makes up for it with its compactness and plug and play capabilities. Its unique flip design is not only very nice to look at, but it is so small when closed its almost unbelievable.

6. Logitech Z-2300

The Logitect Z-2300 is only 2.1 speakers, but they are arguably the best at what they do. They are THX-certified, and have a wired remote control which includes a power/standby button and a headphone jack.

7. Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision

With a 1.3 megapixel lens (they say still image can be up to 4 megapixel with software enhancement), HD quality video capture, and a built in microphone, there is barely anything you can say negatively about this webcam.
It has a premium design, and buttons for snapshot or video preview. The neat thing about this camera is the Logitech Video Effects, which lets you change your video settings in many ways, such as face accessories or avatars which mirror expressions and motions.

8. Plextor PX-716AL

Not many DVD drives are that cool, but this one has a unique feature. The slot loading capabilities of this drive are just too cool to pass up. It has dual layer capabilities, and claims to be able to burn a 4.7GB DVD in less than six minutes.
