The panels, at only 4 ounces, are small, and low maintenance. [...]

Apple Mighty Mouse review (not good)


Apple has released the Mighty Mouse (err, wasn’t this a cartoon, with a catchy theme song?) to the world. They are finally embracing a multi-button mouse! The optical Apple Might Mouse can be customized, and has two invisible touch-sensitive buttons (uhh, can’t imagine this works well).
I think Apple’s engineers are a little off [...]

Stikfas at ThinkGeek


Thinkgeek has started selling the stikfas action figures. They are about 3.2″ tall and have about 14 points of ball-jointed movement capabilites.

It does have a pretty crazy looking design (like something out [...]

Doodad is a Mechanic’s Best Friend


Doodad has gone and figured out a way so you will never lose that WD-40 straw. As most of you know, the straw is vital if you want to get a nice straight stream of the all purpose lubricant. For those of you who are trivia buffs, why is it called WD-40?
In 1943 [...]

Seiko E-paper watch


Seiko has shown off the E-paper watch during Basel 2005 (not sure which conference this is…). It is a digital watch that has an ultra-thin, low-power display. The best part of the display? It is as flexible as paper.
Cool.
