The Gravity Balans chair from Varier Furniture looks like a high-tech rocker, but it actually is more like a hammock.  The chair is designed to be used in three different positions: upright, partially reclined and fully reclined (pictured here).  Wired recently reviewed the Gravity Balans chair, saying it’s incredibly comfortable (a “nap magnet”) when when reclined, once you get used to the suspended position. 

The downside?  The Gravity Balans costs a whopping $1995, beyond the budget of many of the young males it will appeal to.  And moving between chair positions can be an intimidating experience.  Read the complete Gravity Blans chair review on the Wired website or find out more at the Varier Furniture website.

Ever since the Nintendo Wii hit the market, motion-controlled video games have been growing in popularity.  Microsoft has taken technology to the next level with Kinect.  This new controller for the Xbox 360 responds to full-body movement.  Applications like Dance Masters and Motion Sports immerse you in the motion of the game without having to worry about holding a controller.
