Tony Soprano can do a lot of things. With one phone call or one sit down meeting he can make things happen. Tony can't do everything though.

Due to the size of the boss' belly, Tony would have an easier time smuggling contraband through the Newark International Airport than he would if he was simply trying to read a scale.

Don't stop believing Tony, there is finally a scale available that will allow you to weigh yourself without having look passed the gut all the pasta and sausage has produced. Introducing the Eye Level Readout Wireless Scale by Taylor Gifts [via Random Good Stuff].

Now if only I can find a good way to end this post...    

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who care about comic books when there's a new movie about a comic book hero and those who love comic books more than anything. Take a guess what category the owner of this Bat Cave home theater belongs.   

Bruce Wayne, himself, probably wouldn't even do  this to the Wayne Manor. I'm sure for some nerds, watching Christian Bale kicking ass as the Dark Knight might be a lot of fun in this place, but I'd rather drop cash on something a little more practical like say a $20,000 diamond encrusted iPhone case.  

I recall last year's MacWorld when the iPhone was introduced thinking there was no way I would ever drop that kind of cash on a phone. Then I saw one and had one in my hand and thought food and rent weren't as important as me owning this phone. It does everything, life will be easier if I have to shoplift from the local 7Eleven to keep myself fed, it doesn't matter because I can read my emails and listen to my playlist all from one little handheld device.

At this year's MacWorld, we got a glimpse of a $20,000 iPhone case by Case-Mate. Read that sentence again. Are you back? Ok let's try to move on. The case is made with 42 diamonds, totaling 3.5 carats, and is embedded in 18k gold. 

Remember that story I told you about putting food and rent off just to own an iPhone? That's not going to happen with this case. I have never owned a case for any phone, nevermind a case with 42 diamonds.

Our rapper friends however, might get one for each day of the week. I can't prove this but I hear Diddy has five and they are starting a reality show on MTV next month to see which one he brings to the Grammys.     

Today at the annual gathering of geeks that is MacWorld, Steve Jobs announced that iTunes movie rentals are now a reality. Users can now download movies from iTunes and play them on their TV or iPods.

There are more than 1,000 movies to choose from, all of the major studios are participating. New releases will run you $4.99 while all other movies go for $3.99.

Renters will have 30 days to start watching, then 24 hours after that point to finish the movie. After that it's gone from your device but the 87 minutes you wasted watching Comebacks will not be erased from your memory.

 More photographic evidence that celebs are just like me and you. When you and I are on laptops, we're usually not sitting next to Beyonce. Usually, I mean never.

Too bad this picture wasn't taken from the reverse angle so we could see what they were looking at. My guess is they are flirting with each other on the iChat even though they are 13 inches away from each other. We get it, you got to keep this relationship a secret.

Jay might also be on Monster.com, you know he is looking for another job. While he's looking for another job, he might as well be looking for a new endorsement deal, HP probably isn't too happy that Jigga man won't use their computers even when they are PAYING him to use their computers.

One of the stars of this year's CES has surprisingly been a car. GM's 'The Boss" is a self-driving Chevy Tahoe that uses all kinds of technology developed by those nerds at Carnegie Mellon University.

Paris wouldn't have time behind bars if she had a self-driving car. LiLo wouldn't be the one person wrecking crew that she is if her pretty face was in the passenger seat. And Britney wouldn't be a fender bender waiting to happen if her and all her crazy wasn't behind the wheel. Seriously, I got enough I need to worry about living in this town, put me at ease when I am on the road. Give these ladies one of these rides stat. What's that? I've got to wait another ten years for these to be available. Ouch. Either these girls are going to nee to learn how to drive or I am not leaving my house for a decade.

Last night at CES marked the end of an era, Bill Gates who is stepping down as CEO of Microsoft this summer, made his last keynote. This video shows that Gates has enough money to be friends with the cool kids, but he clearly is not one of them. Who needs cool when you can use hundred dollar bills as post-it notes?  

More CES Coverage coming atcha. For tech nerds it really doesn't get much bigger than this week. I'd say it's like the nerd Oscars but since those probably won't happen this year, I'll go with a tech Super Bowl.  

We're used to seeing our low self-esteem not so talented female stars shrink into well dressed skeletons, the latest being Tara Reid as seen on the cover of the latest InTouch Weekly. But now our TVs seem to be following the trend now too.

Pioneer is unvieling the "Thinnest HDTV in the World" at CES. At 9mm thin, this TV, a part of Pioneer's Project Kuro line, is actually thinner than an iPhone. We're all concerned for the health of the Kuro, the TV claims that it has been eating right and exercising regularly but it looks more like an eating disorder if you ask me.

I mean with all that late night partying, boozing and wild lifestyle how on earth could the Kuro stay so thin? I'm no doctor so I am just speculating when I say this but just like InTouch Weekly,  the TV's got issues.

Oh and Tara's got an issue or two as well. Last time I saw someone that skinny, there was a phone number on the bottom of the screen.    

Tek is here to liven up the last hours of your work week with photographic evidence that celebrities do in fact use technology. Although, from the looks of this first photo in our new weekly series, they don't always seem to know how to use them. LiLo doesn't need user manuals, she's got guys like this dude to show her how to work the Blackberry. I don't have confirmation, but I think he is showing her that you can't undelete your dealer's digits. Once they're gone, they're gone.

Lindsay Lohan's ex-boyfriend Riley Giles is looking to further cash in on his 15 minutes of fame by selling LiLo's personal photos, which include this one. 

This is proof that celebrities, just like those MySpace kids, haven't figured out a way of taking a picture of their own mug without stepping into the bathroom and clicking in front of the mirror. 

LiLo could have just gone with the timer on her cam or could have used something called the Quik Pod, and expandable hand-held tripod.  

With the Writer's Strike looking like it's not going to end any time soon, and that whole rehab thing out of the way, the Mean Girls' star has some time on her hands to do a little research on her next camera. 

CNET recommends the Canon PowerShot SD 850 IS, which includes "face detection." Yes, even an inanimate object can spot Lohan's pretty face, that's what happens when Access Hollywood, UsWeekly and PerezHilton report on your every single move.

As for Mr. Giles, no word on whether or not the Canon will detect his face, I know I wouldn't be able to do so. You can throw him into a lineup full of Hollywood's famous for no reason whatsoevers, and I'd probably just walk away shaking my head thinking about what sunglasses I should wear in my next photo of myself. 

The new SmartNav 3 makes the computer a hands-free activity. I know some and by some I mean millions of you have already mastered domains with one hand, now SmartNav is looking to help out by freeing up that other hand. 

The SmartNav 3 is a new device that uses your head motion to move the mouse cursor. If you're good with your head like the former video vixen, Karrine Steffans , you might earn yourself a similar nickname and a book deal while you are at it. 

Unlike Steffans work, I can post a link to video of some SmartNav action without having to include the letters NSFW next to it.  Click here for some safe for work head action with the SmartNav 3.  

The holiday season has your boy Tek Swank is in the giving mood. Our celebrity friends have pretty much everything, so finding the perfect gift for our famous friends isn't very easy. That's where I come in. All this week I am matching celebs with the gadget or gizmo that fits the guys and girls with all the fame, fortune and fun like Jennifer Love Hewitt and pair of size 2 jeans . Happy Holidays! Check back all week for more gift giving fun.

 Who could use a time-shift better than Britney Spears? Seriously, what a 2007 our favorite piece of white trash had!

She lost her hair, lost her kids and lost her damn mind all in the matter of six months.

What better gift for Brit-Brit than a TiVoHD ? She could give her those videos, TV specials, and interviews from her prime "Keep Until I Delete" status while fast forwarding past pretty much anything and everything of 2007. And since TiVoHD is recording in High-Definition, she'll see her sanity being sucked out of her with a crystal clear image. If only she could rewind and do the year all over.

One can only hope that in 2008, Spears "Gives us More".

 Today we're wrapping up a copy of Windows Vista and placing under the tree of Mr. Steve Carell. Today, PC World named the latest operating system from Microsoft as the "Biggest Tech Disappointment of 2007."
Like Bill Gates' creation, Carell's Evan Almighty fell short of public expectations. Actually "fell short of public expectations" is being too nice. Both Evan and Vista tanked.

Just like Vista: Evan Almighty had a big budget, years of build up and made many who spent their money on the new version find themselves clinging to the predecessors (Bruce and XP).

The Office star has shown that he can bounce back from Evan, the October release Dan in Real Life was a solid film. The guy who created Office however, is going to have to prove that he can come back from the let down on Vista.

Let's hope, he can Get Smart...um...I mean Smarter. He's Bill F'n Gates.

 With the news that he's been called one of Hollywood's most overpaid by Forbes , I'm sure Russell Crowe is on the lookout for both the guy who compiled the list and a phone he can throw at them without losing his publicist's number. For Russell's sake, I hope the GSM Sonim XP1 is under his tree this year. 

Peace on Earth and Joy to Man, Russell. 

After the jump watch the Sonim take a brew bath.
