Pretty cool item that'll let you stream and view TV from your cable, satellite or DVR box on any computer with a high-speed internet connection. So in other words, you can watch your home TV from anywhere and with no service fees. Way cool.

Beyond Bread Maker
The attached scanning wand automatically programs the bread maker to prepare bread and cake mixes according to the package instructions simply by scanning the UPC code.
Perfect for the giant gadget geek I am, a break maker that knows how to bake the bread for you. Genius.

A Westie puppy
Okay, Christina and I want one of these in the worst way. We've been wanting a white little puppy to go along with Reesey. Not too soon, but maybe the next time we move. (A year and a half from now?)
Aren't they adorable, it would be a perfect little sister for Reesey. Perfect size and temperament.

Hot Diggity Dogger
It's like a toaster, but especially for hot dogs and their buns. Brilliant! (via Gizmodo)
Update: Apparently this thing is a big pile of dung. Don't buy it for me unless you have money to burn and a personal vendetta against me.

OU 41 - TAMU 13
I can see Jason White throwing for 270+ yards while Adrian Peterson rushes for 120. A&M's secondary can't stop anyone, it'll be a field day for OU's offense. TAMU might score more than 13, but even if they do their defense still gets them blown out.
Damnit A&M is overrated. They get more credit for losing to Baylor than we do when we win a damn game.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The last two installments of the Grand Theft Auto series are two of my favorite games of all time, but for some reason I never finished either one of them. I was a little late to the game with GTA III, but with Vice City I got it the day it came out but still my ADD ass managed to find something else to do before I finished it.
Grand Theft Auto is getting awesome reviews, but I just picked up Burnout 3. I'll probably hold off on it a little while till it's cheaper and I'm not playing anything else. Either way, I'm definitely playing this game soon.

XM Radio
I almost got Christina to get XM Radio for me last Christmas, and now I'm kinda wanting it again. The addition of Major League Baseball is a big plus and something that gives XM a few more points. Plus Delphi has released the new SkyFi 2 receiver that looks really sweet and can even pause and rewind live radio, pretty cool.
I really like the general concept and almost everything about it, except for the after-market implementation. You end up with wires and crap all over your car and it just looks like crap. Maybe I'll hold off till my next car and get it factory installed.

Nintendo DS
Okay, so I don't really want one at all. In fact it seems kind of lame to me, and the Gameboy Advance SP seems to make a lot more sense.
I've pre-ordered two already.
Why? Hopefully to make a little profit off the deal. Many people (including Nintendo) are expecting shortages of the DS during the Christmas season. So I pre-ordered one each from EBGames.com and Gamestop.com and hopefully I'll either get both in time to sell at an inflated price, or I can always return them if there's no shortage, or sell them at actual price. We'll see.

Audiovox SMT 5600
Here's another Pocket PC phone, this one's much smaller than the other options. Pretty good looking and is getting good reviews despite my reservations about the Audiovox brand. It is after all just rebranded with that name here in the US.

Paper Mario 2
I loved Super Mario RPG a hundred years ago when I played it, but had long moved on from the N64 when the original Paper Mario was released.
I haven't played my GameCube in probably a year, hell I haven't even seen it. I lent it to my brother and haven't asked for it back. This game may be something I talk him into buying so I can eventually play it.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door looks pretty damn cool, here's the IGN and GameSpot reviews.
