Cool Shades Tape

Jake — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 09:53:05 +0000

These shades can be used to accessorize clothing. The products shots shows that they can be worn as real sunglasses. (See the picture below.)

The warning on the website suggest that you shouldn’t wear the shades as shown in the pictures:

“It is not recommended that these tapes are applied directly onto the body, as the adhesive may cause irritation to sensitive skin or damage to hair.”

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”.

Babyglow: there’s something fishy

We haven’t really looked into this gadget, but if someone (the baby in this case) looks that scared, there’s something fishy about it.

Retro watch

Retro-cool or super nerdy? If you go for the green one you can get away with it when you’re planning a theme party, otherwise… I don’t think so.

iPhone accessory for dorks

This accessory is a lot of things… ‘cool’ is not one of ‘em. Not in anyway. If you own an iPhone, you can use this holster to maintain your nerdy image. In all other cases use it as a gift for people you dislike.

sWAP Cell Phone Watch – another try

Jake — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 16:53:54 +0000

“The sWAP Cell Phone Watch transforms the watch into a wrist communicator a la Dick Tracy.”

Dick Tracy is old and so is this concept. We know this will never be a succesful combination.

One of the ‘features’ is that you can use it to visit WAP-sites. WAP never made it big, nobody used it, we thought it was long gone…

For a cool £ 249 it’s yours… Use it at an eighties party!

Orange Dance Charge

“The Orange Dance Charge is a portable phone charger powered through the kinetic movement of a system of weighs and magnets.”

We’ve checked if it was launched on April 1st… it was not.

Embrace-me

Jake — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 13:37:42 +0000

When two people wearing the sweatshirts embrace, the leds will light up. This is no gadget, no fashion-item and a disrespect of personal space.
