Teddy Bear USB Drive
Juniper Foo | Jul 20, 2006
Wanna frighten that pesky little kid who's been screeching his/her head off for the last hour? Just go up, whip out this cuddly teddy bear, and with a little Freddy Krueger slice-and-dice glee, rip its head right off. Well, okay, it's not a nice thing to do, but you've got to admit that whoever came up with this USB device has given it a rather morbid twist, since it has to lose its cranium in order to access the internal USB drive. Rather appropriate we'd say to quote the Queen of Hearts from Alice In Wonderland here: "Off with his head!"

64GB flash drive
Juniper Foo | Jul 19, 2006
Yes, that's gigabyte. And no, we aren't prepared to slap down US$5,000 just to flash around 64GB worth of solid state memory stuffed into a USB keychain drive. Still, if that's too rich, rival Kanguru has a similar version which retails for a mere US$2,799.95.

Aztech Skype DECT with USB Dongle
Juniper Foo | Jul 17, 2006
DECT or digital cordless phones is tech revolution's answer to telecommunications, with clear digital sound on untethered terminals. Pair one with Skype support, and you get Aztech's upcoming Skype DECT telephone that lets you toggle between making phone calls as well as VoIP ones. Which isn't half bad for a multitasking device. This has a 50m reach from the PC you've plugged the USB dongle into. Not good enough to tote along to the Econ Minimart down the road, but you probably won't have a distance issue if you decide to lounge by your backyard pool.
