Have a desktop kegger all to yourself

Mike Yamamoto  |  Nov 16, 2007
To show we're not snobs when it comes to libations, the martini aficionados at Crave wanted to give equal time to the beer drinkers among us.

So even though we've already highlighted such hops-friendly items as the HomePub, Gamerator, and MyFridge keg cooler recently, we'll also mention Avanti's "Mini Pub Mini Beer Keg Dispenser". It's an appliance that's suitable for the everyday consumer and connoisseur alike--not only does it accommodate a generous 5l mini-keg for entertaining (or just solo enjoyment), but Techie Diva says temperature can be regulated by its digital control.

Most important, it's a much safer way to imbibe than some robotic alternatives out there.

A Mobile Luggage Desk that goes with you

Juniper Foo  |  Nov 15, 2007
Where's a workdesk when you need one? Hammacher Schlemmer apparently has the answer--a rolling luggage cart which doubles as a workdesk that can be tucked away when not needed. Sure, you can always prop your laptop on your lap (otherwise why call it a laptop?). But when you have to balance a mouse, your cell phone, a music player and possibly even an external drive, buddy, you'll need a working surface.

To keep everything at a manageable 11lbs, this 2-in-1 movable desk is molded in lightweight ABS plastic with an anodized aluminum frame. The platform unfolds at a button touch and can support up to 20lbs and a 17-inch notebook. Such convenience will set you back a mere US$160.

The ultimate indignity: R2-D2 soy sauce bottle

Mike Yamamoto  |  Nov 15, 2007
Poor R2-D2. Once everyone's favorite chirping bot, it's now reduced to serving as a lowly desktop accessory or novelty USB key. And as if this weren't bad enough, it's beheaded on a regular basis.

But all that pales in comparison to its latest incarnation--as a soy "source" bottle. "All you have to do is pour some soy sauce into his orifice, close him up, and then pour," Tokyomango says. The horror.

The perfect exercise machine for slave labor

Mike Yamamoto  |  Nov 14, 2007
Gamercize has been peddling and pedaling exercise machines for some time now, mostly making fitness gear designed to work with game consoles as well as the occasional digital cycle for kids. But this week it's releasing a product aimed squarely at the cubicle set.

The UK company has come up with a "GZ PC-Sport and Power Stepper" combination that can fit under the desk so worker bees can continue their duties uninterrupted while burning off calories without leaving their seats. And here's the kicker: It can be hooked up to the computer by USB so that the keyboard or mouse will work only when the Stepper is in use.

If all this sounds like the trappings of some futuristic labor camp, remember that it could be worse. Your boss could hook you up to a "Walkstation" treadmill instead and make you do 20 laps for each Excel spreadsheet. In fact, we hope ours isn't reading this now.

This Selky keeps you toasty

Juniper Foo  |  Nov 14, 2007

Though there's really no call to get one in the tropics where the only snow you'll likely get is the static on your TV set, this certainly appeals to our Asian pragmatism.

The Selk Bag is a sleeping bag you basically wear to bed. Think of it as a romper-sized bunny suit you zip up in. So even if the temperature's a nippy -10 degrees C, you can take your bed with you to the loo and back without having to risk certain important body parts to frost bite.

The suit comprises a hood, zippered arm ends so you can get your mitts out, soft-touch nylon lining padded with a Polyester Hollow Fibre Bonded filling, and oddly a limited choice of army green or yellow. But at least you won't be turning a nice frigid blue hue anytime soon.
