SolidAlliance USB Engine Hub

Juniper Foo | Jul 26, 2007

Think engine sounds, and the Harley's "potato, potato, potato" rumble comes to mind. To some, it's actually irksome. So if you're not feeling kindly to your aurally challenged sworn office enemy sitting next to your cubicle, check out SolidAlliance's USB Engine Hub. Beats sticking pins into a Dilbert Voodoo doll. This may be USB-powered instead of horsepowered, but it powers on like the real 2-liter deal, complete with vibration and sound effects that range from gear shifts to racing. You control the sound by pushing the kick pedal. It's also just the daily fix that motorbike fans need to rev up their day with. Oh yeah, did we mention it's also a USB Hub?
