What: American Apparel x eBay
When: This Fall
GG Certified: American Apparel has teamed up with eBay! The announcement was made this morning and we can’t wait to shop on the AA shop within eBay’s auction sites. The reason? According to Dov Charney, CEO of AA, there are 30,000 searches a month for his products on eBay. Go figure!

What It Does: Keeps tabs on your exercise routine.
Available: Don’t really know, maybe in the near future.
GG Certified: According to Engadget, this device is best described as an “all-in-one fitness and music personal fitness device” (redundant much?) that packs a GPS for “accurate performance tracking.” The as of yet unnamed gadget also sports a “smart music player” that compiles a list of songs based on the tunes that help you sweat your best.”
There’s a Nike+ device that does that, no?
