Dell Mini 5 – iPad/iPhone Killer?

Jake — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 15:46:19 +0000

Dell entered the tablet marked with the Dell Mini 5. Will it be an iPad or iPhone killer?

We don’t think so. It looks to big to work as a phone, but too small to be a handy tablet… The future will tell.

Nice Cup Bra, a putting mat for the keen golfing lady

Jake — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 08:34:10 +0000

It shouldn’t be a surprise that this gadget was ‘invented’ in Japan, the mother land of weird gadgets.

The Nice Cup Bra can be removed and unrolled to create a 1.5m-long putting mat. When the user sinks a putt into one of the cups, a built-in speaker pumps out a congratulatory “Nice shot!”.

The Video Watch: not a killer combo

Jake — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 08:09:55 +0000

They’ll keep trying combining stuff. The latest addition: a 8GB Video Watch. I don’t think it’ll be a success.

If you want to watch a movie or tv series while you’re on the go, why not use that far more suitable device you also carry around all the time: your mobile phone. This video watch may make it big in the “retro nerd scene”.

The Pizza Boss 3000 – For Real Men

To be honest: this is of course a worthless gadget… but I like it and I think I need one.

Channel Changer: the classic approach

Jake — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 06:19:09 +0000

The Channel Changer Ray Gun has a classic opponent.

It’s equally worthless, it sucks and looks cheap in a way that wasn’t intended. The unique selling point of this remote is that it comes with a Sheriff’s Badge. I still favour the Ray Gun.

Channel Changer Ray Gun

It’s obvious… this gadget is worthless. The ray gun is a remote control, but you can only use it to jump to the next channel. It sucks, but I like it! It’s infantile and it makes a cool sound when changing the channel.

UroClub

The UroClub is a golf club to pee in.

“After drinking sport ades, water, beer, and whatever, you’re on the 3rd hole with no rest room in sight. There are no trees or bushes around and you just gotta go, what are you going to do?”

I would take the golf cart and drive the 2 minutes back to pee and wash my hands.

Underwater Pogo Stick

“This pogo stick allows you to perform a variety of waterborne stunts as you bounce off walls or bottoms.”

I guess the stunts will be in slow motion. Although this is a questionable toy, I’m a bit curious.
