Ferrari has teamed up with Meridian for a some Auto Branding Adventures with the F80 home entertainment system. And by "home entertainment system," we really mean it's just a glorified clock-radio. The details are limited but it seems this home entertainment system has radio, CD and auxiliary input support. Probably the most important feature is the pristine Ferrari horsey that graces the front of the speaker. It's available in red, silver, yellow, white or black for $2,995. Yes, get ready to drop nearly three G's on a glorified clock-radio. You'd probably be better off printing off the Ferrari logo and gluing it to the Sony clock-radio you've been using since 1993 and saving yourself a large chunk of change. [ Meridian ]

Motorola isn't one to shy away from shilling for Ferrari and this latest cellphone-sports car mash-up is further proof. Motorola has taken its previously boring RAZR 2 V9 cellphone and slapped Ferrari branding on it therefore increasing the sexiness level 10-fold. Normally in our Auto Branding Adventures , we're not one to easily give in to these types of products, but the Ferrari'd version of the V9 is mighty pretty. The checkered metallic patterns and red-everything is a tad drool-worthy for the gadget-fiends out there. galleryPost('motov9ferrari', 3, 'Motorola RAZR V9 Ferrari'); Of course, Motorola has included the lot of Ferrari background images, pictures, ringtones and more, but also included is a lambskin case that includes the familiar Ferrari badge. It will first be available in Asia and Latin America with a stateside release to be determined. [ Gizmos.es ]

You know, I used to think Ferrari was doing pretty well, at least until recently. Of late, what we've heard from the Italian manufacturer has nothing to do with cars and everything to do with gadgets. So far we have seen speakers , Vertu and Motorola cellphones and a Segway . The latest gadgets to come out of the Ferrari HQ are even more unlikely: binoculars and telescopes. galleryPost('ferrariscopes', 3, 'Ferrari Branded Binoculars, Telescopes'); The Ferrari Visio binoculars are red, include the familiar horse logo and include some carbon fiber, of course. They are available for $199 and can provide up to 8x magnification. The Ferrari ZenithStar telescope provides up to 50x magnification and can attach onto camera with a special adapter. It's available for $699. The Ferrari ZenithStar Anniversary Edition is just like the regular model, except it is cast in, yes, carbon fiber and can magnify up to 65x. It is available for $1599. Wow, Ferrari. How about you quit wasting...

Ferrari, which some would describe as a "luxury manufacturer" is teaming up with Motorola, which others would describe as "cheap junk" -- for a prancing-horse branded cellphone. The Motorola Z8 RIZR will be the sliding phone getting a little love from FRRI. I'll go easy on Motorola, the Z8 is a decent handset. None of the Z8's guts are being upgraded to match the power Ferrari is known for, but it is getting a pretty red and black paint job. The phone itself will include Ferrari videos, wallpaper, ringtones and pre-registration to the official Ferrari Web site and will be available next year. Pair this up with a Ferrari Segway and t-shirt to jump start your way to a grade-A douchebaggery (unless you actually own a Ferrari, of course -- then you know, just don't wear it while you drive, OK?).

If you don't mind driving in an upright position, topping out at 12.5 miles per hour and achieving a critical mass of dorkitude, you can have your very own Ferrari. It's the special-edition Ferrari Segway, a tifosi-red version of the famous but slow-selling gyro-stabilized scooter. It costs $12,000 and is no faster than the generic model, so don't expect an owners' racing series to arise anytime soon, except maybe after hours at the Oracle campus. [ Gizmodo ]

High-end cell-phone builder Vertu has a new titanium ear pillow for Ferraristi. It's the Vertu Ascent Ferrari 60, inspired by the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. It's an extremely limited-edition follow-up to the company's Ascent Ferrari 1947 , and like it, commemorates...
