Daily gear deals – $6 luggage locator, iPod clearance and more

Here are the hottest gear deals for today, Wednesday February 3rd 2010. Remember, these deals are often valid for just one day, so act fast before they are gone.

Today’s first deal is for one of those gadgets you normally only see on TV, or in the in-flight catalog of useless crap. The “ETA Gear” Luggage Locator consists of two parts – one goes on (or in) your bag, the other stays in your carry-on. The idea behind the product is that you press a button to locate your bag. This of course assumes you are just too lazy to look for it yourself. Still, at just $5.49 it may be worth trying. Shipping is free. Click here for this deal.

Next up is a very affordable E-Book reader. The Aluratek Libre Reader Pro comes with 100 preloaded books, and can be expanded with SD memory cards. On sale over at Dell for just $149.99. Click here for this deal.

If you don’t mind being on of the not-so-cool kids with an iPod from last year, then head over to the Amazon iPod clearance. They just discounted the 2008 iPod models up to 34% off. Short of finding a used or refurbished model, this is the cheapest way to get a good player. Click here for this deal.

And finally in today’s lineup, the Garmin Nuvi 205 is back on sale. It may not be as cheap as during the past Holiday season, but at $89.99, you are still getting a pretty good deal on a well rated navigation unit. Click here for this deal.
