Speck iSport Waist Pack -- $44.95, www.speckproducts.com
Beam me up, Scotty, what will they think of next? The Speck iSport is truly a one-of-a-kind product. Designed for joggers, snowboarders, and anyone else who wants to listen to music and stand out from the crowd while they're on the go (roller disco, anyone?), the iSport is a hi-tech fanny pack with an integrated iPod cradle and safety light. A blue safety light, that is. And it blinks.

Pictures do not do the iSport justice -- you really have to see it to believe it. Preferably in the dark, where the blinking blue light can really do its thing. The iSport will appeal to a niche market, for sure, but it's a very well-designed, well-made product. As a fanny pack, it's comfortable and lightweight, made from molded foam with a mesh backing that helps keep you cool and dry while exercising. The iSport is big (about 10-1/4 inches wide), but it has two zipper pockets for keys, money, ID, and the like in addition to a padded, contoured space for your iPod. The adjustable waist strap buckles in front and also has a looped tab that holds your remote control for easy on-the-move access. Nice touch. Sadly, the iSport is not available in florescent pink, though the black and grey is quite nice.
