Throwback cruiser - Early-20th-century motorcycles and the custom BMX bikes of the 1980s inspired Jeff Heesch's design for the Felt Deep Six, the latest of the company's nostalgic cruisers. "It's a killer combination of old-school styling with modern features," he says. And the result is striking: The black-cherry frame, balloon tires, spring seat, and flip-down handlebars make for a retro ride fit for both summer boardwalks and city streets. $749; http://www.feltbicycles.com/
Micro Superzoom - Point-and-shoots can't get much smaller. The next step is to shoehorn more tech into their tiny bodies, as Panasonic has done with its Lumix ZS20. The 14.1-megapixel cam is only 1.11 inches thick but boasts a 20x zoom, making it the slimmest eagle-eyed cam in that range. $349; http://www.panasonic.com/
Hell's Bells - The AC/DC pinball machine, a tribute to Australia's greatest rockers (sorry, Silverchair), is stocked with 12 of Angus and Co.'s hits, including "Thunderstruck" and "T.N.T.," to accompany your flipping. Best played wearing schoolboy gear. Starts at $5,700; http://www.sternpinball.com/
Your Backwoods Best Friend - Beyond its fitness components (it tracks heart rate, pace, etc.), the Suunto Ambit's 3D compass and GPS snag your location faster than ever before. Oh, and it clocks altitude, and tracks the weather, too. $500; http://www.suunto.com/us
