Wave Case for iPhone

As I may have mentioned, my iPhone is terribly spoiled; always has to have the latest case, the newest earbuds, or the system mysteriously slows down. Right now, it’s sporting the new Wave case by Griffin, ($24.99) which is a bright red and made of a translucent polycarbonate shell.

Named the Wave case because of the unique wave-shaped closure, it provides greater interlocking surface area, so you can carry your iPhone and keep it somewhat protected in case of drops.

11-button Multimedia Mouse : Any function is just a click away

11-button Multimedia Mouse : Any function is just a click away
It looks like the modest pc mouse has finally decided to join the “rat” race. Well, what else could it be, especially when continued “innovation” in the pc peripheral market has produced a mouse with – hold your breath – 11 buttons! With the 11-button optical mouse, most of your frequent operations can be accomplished with a single click. Volume up/down, page forward/backward, play/pause, 4-levels of speed adjustment, launching your browser, plus the normal right/left click functions have been integrated into this unique fella. The greatest achievement of the mouse is perhaps that it manages to retain a sleek look while sporting all this added fuctionality, with buttons placed quite cleverly.

TurnOn Multi-Functional Spinning Wall

TurnOn Multi-Functional Spinning Wall

If you live in a place like mine, you find that space is a necessity that you simply do not have. Therefore, it might be good to take what little space you have and make it multi-functional. This is where the TurnOn Multi-Functional Spinning Wall comes in. Basically, it is a room that uses the one part you never use: the ceiling. All you need to do is get into this giant wheel and roll it into place. As you can see, it can function well as a table for two. Spin it again, and it is a lounger. It looks like that is about all it can do unless you want a bigger wheel. I’ve seen a lot of people who complain that this device is impractical, but I don’t think so.

A Bike that Walks

A Bike that Walks
Competing with the milipede with the most number of shoes worn at one time, the walking bike is a novel, intriguing, and funny bicycle design. Designed by Max Knight, this one of a kind bicycle replaces its tyres with eight trainers per. Of course, I very much doubt this’ll ever be produced in mass, but the walking bike actually (kind of) works! You can see the video below. The rides a bit bumpy, but with the bike running on shoes, I reckon most of us would be quite forgiving. Now if only we can see a walking car, I’ll be one of the most amused people on earth.

18-Karat Gold LG Iron Man Phone

Do you know what I like about LG Phones? Its the design. LG has always thought of cool new ideas when designing their phones. Do you know what LG has thought of this time? A limited edition LG Shine Iron Man phone. The phone was created for a new campaign in partnership with Paramount Pictures and Marvel Studios.

Being a luxury edition of LG Shine (KE970), LG Iron Man is dressed in solid gold (18k). Only 100 Iron Man handsets are made, so it will be pretty difficult to get one.
