HEIDI COLLINS, CNN ANCHOR: Well, we've been talking about it all morning and unfortunately it doesn't look much like summer here in New York. But, of course, Memorial Day is the unofficial start of the season.
So Andy Serwer has gone shopping for the best summer gadgets. He's minding your business.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ANDY SERWER, "FORTUNE" MAGAZINE: OK, we're at the Sharper Image looking for more summer gadgets and gizmos. And what's more summery than having a portable fridge? I mean what more could you want than this? Look at this baby right here. Open it up, pretty good. Nice size. Carry it away with you. You see it plugs right in. You bring this thing camping with you. They've got some different sizes and shapes. I like this blue one myself. It's kind of cool.

This one here is a car fridge. It plugs right into your car. Open it up and it actually, it's for your hot and cold drinks. It can keep your cup of coffee warm and your sodas cold.

And then over here we have got the Hummer flashlight. Remember the Hummer bike? You have to shake these up because the fuel cell gets activated that way. No batteries required or needed. Let's turn this thing on my dark suit. Well, not so bright, really, but I guess it does the trick. These are about 30 bucks. This one here is about $150 and about $80 here.

Back to you guys.
