The Rubbermaid Paint Buddy is a touch-up paint roller with onboard paint storage. After painting a room, the user stores excess paint from the project in a Rubbermaid Paint Buddy and labels the cap with room and color information. Later, when a wall needs a minor touch-up, the user simply removes the clear cap, opens the valve and applies the paint to the area with the built-in roller. When finished, the valve is closed to seal the bottle and the roller is either cleaned or replaced. Multiple bottles can be purchased to store different colors of paint. By combining paint storage with an applicator in a convenient, re-sealable package, Paint Buddy represents a paradigm shift for this type of paint application, not just an incremental improvement. Recently introduced, it has been well received by a wide range of major retailers. Paint Buddy is made by Shur-Line, a Newell Rubbermaid company and is forecast to be one of their top selling items for 2005.

The BoomTube portable speakers are for use with MP3 players, CD players and computers. Two tweeters and two bass speakers are cleverly assembled in a cylindrical construction that protects the speakers while in transit. Quick to deploy and pack up, the tweeters use quarter-turn lock-ins as end caps to create a single, highly portable unit. The high perceived value and surprisingly low cost provide a significant margin, making it probably the biggest earning product for Virgin Electronics this year.

The purpose of the project was to reinvent K2 Snowboard’s top of the line T1 boot, integrating new technological advances and styling. Snowboard boots traditionally have two lacing systems, one for the internal liner and another for the shell (or exterior). The T1 has the Boa Access liner, which allows the rider to fine tune the tension without unlacing and removing the shell. To tighten, the Boa dial on the upper cuff is turned while popped in. To instantly release the tension on the cable system, the rider just pops the Boa dial out. The 2004-2005 K2 boot line, of which the flagship model is the T1, has increased sales volume by 25 percent over the previous season.
Liner: K2 Access System with Boa-Fit 3D Liner and New! Boa Coiler
Sole: New! Vibram “Ultra-Light” Sole with air cell heel and full length Phylon midsole
Lacing: Cast metal speed hooks for added durability
Details: Ergo heel pull for ease of entry. AFS Removable Tongue Support. 3D Formed Tongue
Materials: PU Leather for conforming comfort, flex and durability
Reinforcement: Formed leather toe and heel cap. Cast metal lace protectors.
