Trick-or-treat...smell my feet...give me gadgets good enough to eat!

Maybe it's just because Halloween is so close, but looking at circuitcity.com has been making me hungry lately. Little wonder with all these delectable goodies around.


Apple Nano = Gourmet Jelly Beans
Small, compact and colorful. My favorite jelly beans are the gourmet style by Jelly Belly. I like the pear, popcorn and green apple flavors. The Nano, of course, is made by Apple. Coincidence?

Orange Flip Camcorder = Candy Corn
Candy Corn is visual. It looks like Halloween. Unfortunately, it tastes like ear wax. Perhaps a video of candy corn taken with the Flip Camcorder would be more of a treat than actually eating it.

Pink Sony VAIO VGN-CR507E/P = Bazooka Bubble Gum
Stuff your mouth with several pink chunks of this stuff and you won't be able to talk for 10 to 15 minutes. That's OK. You can spend that time reading the comics. The Sony VAIO VGN-CR507E/P is also a delicious pink and a perfect reminder that National Breast Cancer Awareness Month should be in our hearts even as October comes to an end.

Red Nikon CoolPix S60 = Swedish Fish
Swedish Fish are a small but satisfying cure for a sweet tooth. The red Nikon CoolPix S60 is just plan sweeeet!

Blue WD My Passport 320GB = Blue Razzberry Blow Pop
The best part of licking a Blue Razzberry Blow Pop is that it makes your tongue blue. Imagine how blue it would be if you licked 320 GBs of Blow Pops.

Brown Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77/T 10.1 = Super-Sized Hersey's Bar
Admit it, a Hersey Bar just looks delicious. Rich, creamy...the milk chocolate melts in your mouth...and your hands. Be careful, you don't want brown hands when someone takes your picture with a Sony Cyber-shot.

Now I'll leave you to carry on the conversation and add your favorite candy-colored gadgets in the comments section. I'm off to the vending machine.
