Let anyone see this, and even your best friend will plan a heist!

Plica Phone

The Plica is a cool cellphone concept that merges two screens which functions as a touch keyboard and touch screen.  In a way, it looks a tad like a laptop- just smaller and lighter. And at 8 hours, runs about 3x as long as a laptop.

Fully spread out the unit and the screens flatten out as a large working space for doodling and websurfing. Done? Fold it up into a neat compact wallet-sized doodad and slip it into your pocket. It’s the ultimate in portability

Aside from USB and headphone ports, it appears that the unit also sports the usual connectivity fare found on other average cellphones. Processor is quite beefy too. It’s an ideal unit for video and mp3 playback. But the batts can take a hit

 James Piatt  is developing this toy and it won’t be long before you see one of these babies on the road.

You submitted a great report and that fat slob of a boss still castigated you before your peers. Don’t quit! Just cool off by slamming that huge nail into your laptop. (don’t worry, it won’t go bust).

You see, the Nail Flash Drive built by Plankton  is built to look like a big fat nail that you can hammer in your USB por. It  is made from polyurethane and metal alloy; it retracts when hit, driving the 90 x 34mm  inwards. And on the serious note, it can store 1Gb of data inside it.  (I  recommend you just pop it in rather then slam it in with a sledge, though).

Now only if they make a nail for the boss’ head.

Did you ever crave for furniture that only you would ever have? Then check this out for totally one-of-a-kind: your very own eyeballs lighting up your living room! Don’t fret. It doesn’t involve surgical removal. A company called 5.5 Designers, started by Livio Serena has developed a proprietary technique utilizing software and glassblowing to create a large basketball-sized lamp that bears the exact pattern of your peepers.

But don’t rush out and grab one yet. My sources say this will hit at least 5grand with all the tech going into it. Continue Reading »
Cloned Eyeballs In Your Living Room

Fancy doing your bit to cut down on pollution? Then you’ll like what these fellas have in store for you: an ultra lightweight bike that folds up into a backpack for easy storage. No more worrying that some klepto is jacking your bike down at the lot.

Oh, and it doubles as a cart as well. Got to many things to carry? No problem. Unpack the bike and wheel those garbage bags to the bin. It’s got more. Headlights, backlights and turning signals. All in a nice package of 5kg.

This looks definitely like something I’d take for an intravillage commute. But will I take it to work 10 miles away? Nahhhh…. This toy looks a tad flimsy to me. It may break at the next pothole. (oh, and with its size, any chihuahua could outrace me) Continue Reading »
How To Carry Your Bike To the BoardRoom

Your friends will consider you one hell of a popular guy if you tote this around. Not only is it a great ice breaker fore those stiff parties, you’ll also give your new pals a workout.  Fancy that: combining health and socials into the Limbo String!

It’s an-all-in-one device. This geeky gadget does what the limbo bar, the char and even the music player does in a real limbo get together. Push a button and a colored string shoots out while some cheesy, tinny music gets people into the groove. Folks then wiggle and write under the bar. Did the last round get too easy? No problem. There are settings to lower the bar and make things more intense. Just don’t lower it too much that knickers start flashing.

At $40, this cool toy affords you top quality features:

* A compact unit that shoots a cyclical string across the room.
* The string spans 7 feet and is consistently fed through the unit to keep it in the air.
* The string is black light responsive and goes all ‘dayglo’ in the dark..
* Choose to limbo to your own music or opt to use the unit’s tropical tune. Continue Reading »
Limbo String- Be The Life of the Party

I love all-in-ones. They save space. And they’re great for lazy people who want an integrated panel for everything. Now, Brother’s MFC-6490CW is one of those all-in-one color inkjet printer that delivers color printing, faxing, and scanning into a single impressive device, affording extra large printing as well. At a breathtakingly low $300 price tag you will really pinch the budget  since you no longer need to visit print shoppes should you ever need 11″ x 17″ ledger prints. And this baby’s gone a long way since the weak all-in-ones as well. Each function could be standalone. Just check out those superb high speed scans of text that go beyondjust A4/letter sizes! Oh- and it’s  wireless,  compatible with 802.11b/g networks. You’ll set up home networks with this cool alligator in no time.
