The online Wired Store gets an offline component starting November 18th in New York's Soho (160 Wooster at Houston). Timed to coincide with the holidays, the store will feature a wide range of Wired-approved gadgets for just under six weeks, closing its doors on December 24th. Products for sale include the coveted new Motorola PEBL phone as well as over 65 others from Wired's cadre, which will be purchased via digital checkout kiosks (i.e. their website), eliminating the hassle of shopping bags. On weekends they'll provide a free Volkswagen car service to shoppers' next destinations and other events, like Flavorpill DJs and product giveaways, will occur throughout the week. And, for the person who has everything (and to benefit a good cause), a Space Adventures trip to space (valued at over $100k) will be auctioned to benefit the Starlight Starbright Children's Foundation.

I am trying to get in touch with the author of Wired Pop Up Store. It states that a Space Trip... will be auctioned for Starlight Starbright and we are trying to find out more info. We contacted Wired and they don't know about it and either do we so I was hoping the author could help us track down who is doing this so we can help promote it.
