Maplin clamis that the upcoming A93GC MP4 player will be able to usurp the iPod Nano's dominant position in the market just because it looks much more pleasing to the eye. Do the engineers know that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder? Maplin is offering the A93GC MP4 player for £60 when it is released in the beginning of November, and the price will see a sharp £40 jump to £100 at the end of 2006. Details of the A93GC are extremely scarce at the moment, but judging by Maplin's track record, this 2GB portable media player with a 1.5" display will hardly cause a dent in the Nano's sales numbers.

The MacGyver MP3 watch might not be able to shoot lasers like 007's, but it still packs more technology that the average timepiece. This watch from Skullcandy boasts 512MB of storage real estate which can be used to store MP3s, record voice memos, as well as tote around your important digital documents. It supports MP3, WMA, and WAV formats, and comes with an equalizer mode to enhance your audio experience. Since there are no speakers, you will have to hook up a pair of headphones via the 2.5mm earphone jack. Of course, let us not forget that the MacGyver MP3 watch's primary function is to tell the time, and it does that flawlessly. This device is available from Smart Home for $119.37.

The O Sakana Mouse POI from Elecom is guaranteed to elicit curious questions from any passers-by when they lay their eyes on its unique design. Sure, it might not be that ergonomic due to its fish-inspired shape, but its definitely much better to use than any available live fish in the aquarium. The O Sakana Mouse POI comes in a host of cheery colors including metallic primary blue, red, and yellow. There is no word on pricing and availability, but make sure you have a free USB port available to plug in this cute button-eyed mouse.

Any one of you who aspire to be drummers can now have a whale of a time with the iPod Digital Drumsticks. These drumsticks do not only work with the iPod, but they can be used with other compatible music players as well. Clip the control module to a belt, and connect the cable from your iPod to a stereo system or a pair of headphones. Both sticks are equipped with buttons that can be used to create a cacophony of drum and cymbal effects. The iPod Digital Drumsticks can also be played without any musical accompaniment, relying on 6 pre-loaded background rhythms instead. It costs $30 to pick a pair up from Hammacher.

Add to myYahoo!This is our second remote control flying saucer we've featured as a Gizmo of the Day, but this one requires only two Jackson's ($40). This wireless (49Mhz) radio-controlled Satellite UFO flies as high as 30 feet by pulling the trigger on the "ray gun" remote. The obligatory LEDs light up as this RC UFO flies. Even if you create your own Area 51, the impact-resistant foam protects the UFO from crash landings.If you can't shell out the $190 for the other RC UFO or want a starter RC UFO... you can't go wrong with this $40 version!
