Gear For Technomads


The Truck AirBedz is an inflatable air mattress with a rechargeable, flush-mounted air pump that fits around and over the wheelwells of your truck or SUV. Great for road trips or when tent camping loses its outdoorsy appeal, the Airbedz can also be used in the home just like a conventional air mattress. www.truckairbedz.com

Called Well Done, the report features blank pages printed with thermo-reactive ink that, after being wrapped in foil and cooked for 25 minutes, reveal text and images.
