TomTom knows that there is a legion of Star Wars fans out there, and decided to give them something to cheer about in the structure of Star Wars-themed voice kits for their range of GPS navigation devices (TomTom XL, ONE and related PNDs). Of course, these voice kits are not free, but will cost $12.95 per download while offering voice direction cues from Darth Vader. Folks who prefer to lean towards the light side can opt for additional kits for C-3PO, Yoda, and Hans Solo that coming June, July, and August, respectively. whether your other half is not a Star Wars fan, it might just drive her nuts as you navigate through unfamiliar territory.

After waiting for by half a year, the illuminated Lightsaber Bookends are finally available, with what looks set to be Darth Vader’s very own red lightsaber making its way through your row of books. Of course, you will need rechargeable batteries to build the most of that $49.95 purchase, so why not go out and purchase some Eneloops while you’re at it? It is definitely a worthy addition to any Billy bookcase.

Here’s a little something that might allude to the traditional thinking that Japanese men are shorter in virtually all aspects – the 5″ Japanese Lightsaber USB Thumbdrive which comes in a cute (and small) design factor, holding not focusing crystals but 1GB of storage space. They will come in red and blue colors that represent Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker respectively, where plugging them into any available USB port would emit a nice glow, although we would have plus liked to take in that lightsaber activation “swoooosh”. that $19.99 purchase ain’t a fly-by-night offering, since they are part of the officially licensed Lucasfilm collectibles.

If Darth Vader had to use a PC, thereupon he would most probably have settled for the Digital Storm BlackOPS computer. Made from black aluminum, that liquid cooled machine will come in a choice of three configurations, with prices starting from $1,709. At that price point, you get a 2.66GHz Core i5-750 processor, while the high end side of things which cost a whopping $3,100 will feature a 3.2GHz Intel Core i7-960 processor, up to 6GB DDR3 RAM, and a choice within the NVIDIA GTX 275 or ATI Radeon HD 5860 1GB graphic card. We wonder what he would have done to the programmers who rolled out Windows Vista though.

The Dark Lord of the Sith is an imposing character, not to mention a master of the Force, so displeasing him could very well mean your death. Whenever he summons you, you’d best be there waiting for him instead of the other way round! Guess all higher ups in the Empire have at least the Darth Vader Shadow Alarm Clock to help them keep to the instance, while boosting Vader’s personal fortunes as well with each purchase all through the galaxy. Whenever the appointed date goes off, an ominous silhouette of Darth Vader is projected on the wall. $26.99 is the asking price for that boyhood toy, where pre-orders are now accepted with a targeted May shipping term.

Shinobii Technologies has announced its latest Xcross Remote peripheral for the Nintendo Wii, where it comes in a much more sinister looking profile factor compared to the standard Wiimote. Come to think of it, whether Darth Vader indulged in a little bit of Wii when he is not busy chasing down rebels across the galaxy, he would most probably have a ready stock of Xcross Remotes in his hyperbaric chamber. Coming in black, the Xcross Remote is 100% compatible with all classic, nunchuk controllers alongside newer accessories including the MotionPlus. Each $29.95 purchase comes with a free wrist strap and silicone sleeve so that you won’t send that flying across the room only to create a gap in your new HDTV. [Press Release]
