With Halloween just a few days away, it doesn’t hurt to get in the mood a little with some pumpkin-colored gadgets for the Fall holiday. Here are five orange treats to go with your costume this weekend:

1. Sony Webbie HD MHS-PM1: If you either want to record your child’s first trick-or-treating experience or all of the best moments at a Halloween party or parade, this attractive Sony Webbie is a frugal option. Far cheaper than its competitors like the Flip UltraHD or the Kodak Zi8, the Webbie HD MHS-PM1 is typically available under $150. While its quality hasn’t been reviewed as highly as the other previously mentioned cameras, it does shoot HD footage at 720p and 1080p. Not to mention it also features a swiveling lens and a memory card expansion shot for more recording time. [Check Prices]

2. Samsung DualView TL225: Attracting a lot of hype in the last few months for its dual-screen design, this 12.2-megapixel, orange and black pocket camera is a innovative and perfect for any party or parade. On its touchscreen navigation menu, photographers can select between another of special preset functions, including night portrait, children, dawn and “perfect self-portrait.” [Check Prices]

3. Samsung Go N310: A rugged, but higher-end netbook, the Samsung Go N310 is a unique and powerful gadget. The sunset-orange colored device contains a 160 GB hard drive, 1 GB of RAM and 10.1-inch widescreen display. Weighing only 3.0 pounds (without the AC adapter) and able to run nearly six hours on a 6-cell battery, the clamshell-styled netbook is certainly fun and utile for anyone on-the-go.  [Check Prices]

4. JBL Roxy Reference 230 earphones: If you’re looking for some stylish new earphones at a low price (or you’re just sick of looking like everyone else with Apple earbuds), this Roxy pair is a nice alternative. Producing clear audio and under $20, the Roxy Reference 230 earphones offer a bit of flair to the average MP3 player. It also comes with a tiny black travel pouch. [Check Prices]

5. iPod Nano: The most-feature packed MP3 device of its size, the iPod Nano is a huge bargain for the price. While the only available hard drive sizes are still 8 and 16 GB, the Apple gadget hosts an abundance of special functions including a video camera, FM radio, voice recording, Genius Mixes and a built-in speaker. This is all available to select on a 2.2-inch color screen. While the Nano is available in a rainbow-assortment of colors as well, with all these features, this orange one is definitely perfect for any Halloween party. [Check Prices]
