Furgle.jpgI just found the Furgles Soft Speakers ($24.99) on the Technology Filter and it made me laugh for two reasons. First, I found and posted it before Jen Deleo, who kinda has the market cornered for cute-and-cuddly technology here on Gearlog. Second, I thought about asking PC Magazine's Lead Audio Analyst, Mike Kobrin, to take them down to the audio lab and run a frequency response test on these furry bad boys. (Mike takes his music very seriously and is at this moment testing a high-end music server for the home.)

If only it were still April 1.....oh, hell. I am going to ask him to do anyway. They could sound great, right? You can't judge a speaker by its fuzz.

Jim - what is the link to your Furgle DL.TV. spot from CES2006? Is it the spot where you featured the Furgles cd wallets, and speakers? I've been searching for the link for some time now as I loved it when I saw it, but I can't find it anymore. Is it possible for you to supply only the part about the furgles, and not the whole spot? As I remember that the whole spot was very long. FYI, I am responsible for brining the Furgle cd wallet to fruition. The other items were born from it as our line extension. I truly enjoy all of the commentary on the Furgles and am trying to formulate a scrapbook on all reviews. Thanks! Stacy Computer Expressions
