Oakley O Rokr Sunglasses; $250;
www.oakley.com

I love finding devices that simplify my life by combining multiple functions in one package. I never thought of my sunglasses as a device, however, until I switched to Oakley's O Rokrs. Good shades are an essential piece of equipment, of course, and the lenses on the O Rokrs filter out 100 percent of UVA and UVB rays. Yet these sunglasses also have a built-in Bluetooth headset, so I can make voice calls and listen to MP3s streaming from my cell phone. I use the tiny buttons on the frame to take calls or adjust the volume, and the sound quality is loud and clear. The O Rokrs offer five hours of talk time and 100 hours of standby, although I still sometimes enjoy just turning everything off to retreat behind the privacy of my darkened glasses.
