What It Is: The world's first e-reader with a color E Ink display. Why You Need It: Support for tons of picture and document formats, speech recognition, fluent text-to-speech capabilities and the ability to load your own content make it great for travelers. A speed reading course, vocabulary builder, interactive SAT course, various subject reference materials and wireless access to online textbooks make it great for students on-the-go. And its talking dictionaries, linguistic crosswords and foreign language grammar help will make it that much easier to communicate in other countries.

What It Is: A fresh take on the in-car phone charger. Why You Need It: This bright 2-foot ribbon has good reach, but won't get in the way, and can charge two devices at once. And although it's quite colorful, the TYLT Band doesn't bother with a distracting light telling you your phone is charging (your phone does that anyway.) Available for either Apple products or other smartphones, the product’s flat design prevents a tangled jumble of wires from overtaking your center console when your devices are charging.

What It Is: Sony's highly anticipated gaming handheld. Why You Need It: We’ll soon wonder how restless kids ever survived road trips before the advent of Sony's latest PlayStation. The device has fancy cameras, motion sensors, and a broadband connection. Its brilliant 5-inch display is touch-sensitive both on the screen and via the back of the device, so you can interact with games without blocking the screen. It's great for social gaming, because you can locate, connect and play with friends—whether they're also on Vitas or full PlayStation3 consoles. Plus, the graphics are spectacular and sure to engage even the most disinterested pre-teen.

What It Is: A water-powered portable fuel cell charger. Why You Need It: This new product from Sweden allows hikers, bikers, campers, and other outdoor enthusiasts to get instant power to charge their cell phones and other devices, just by mixing just a tiny bit of fresh or salt water with a special PowerPukk.

What It Is: Alpine goggles outfitted with a HD display that shows real-time data and images. Why You Need It: From the safety of the lift, lodge, or side of the trail, you can use the handy in-goggle heads-up display as a virtual dashboard to text friends, navigate the mountain via GPS, track your real-time skiing/riding stats (like the altitude of you last jump), manage your music playlist, and line up camera shots—all without removing your goggles.

What It Is: A peer-to-peer car borrowing-and-lending site, powered by OnStar. Why You Need It: The premise of this newly launched service is genius: use an app to locate a participating car in your area, unlock it with your phone, and drive it away—for hours, days, or as long you need it. The program comes with a million dollar insurance policy to cover damages, so the car owners—folks just like you—are protected. Even better, for travelers in places where RelayRides becomes popular, it will be a lot cheaper than renting a car.

What It Is: A gyro-stabilized electric unicycle. Why You Need It: Advertised as the "smallest, greenest, most convenient" people mover ever, the Solowheel is much less expensive and—at just 26 pounds—more compact than a Segway, yet similarly provides 15 to 20 miles of self-balancing electric riding at up to 10 mph. Other than the green and convenience factors, it's just a really fun way to get around!
