Warehouse 13 Props -inspiration for steampunk items can be found on the SyFy channel in the show "Warehouse 13". Many of the devices they use, like their video cell phones (called Farnsworths) and the head guy's computer with an old fashioned typewriter keyboard, are just the sorts of things that are quite "steampunky" ! LOL It's a fun show too!
