Spleak.

Spleak. Not sure about this. In general I find very little to recommend ‘virtual buddies’, but maybe this MSN Messenger version is useful to some people. Here’s more on Spleak from developers IMT Labs. Hmm…one slight problem, it won’t download properly from Firefox, needs IE. Tsk sloppy! Anyway on playing around, it looks quite interesting, in a ‘probably remember to use it for 5 mins then forget’ kind of way. And shame it’s MSN Messenger bound.  They call me an Instant…

Perfick Perfit?

The Perfit Mouse Optical. Ergonomic, productive and comfortable? Certainly expensive at $109.95.  Through years of testing we have discovered a unique posture for the fingers, thumb and palm that is not only great for rapid target acquisition, but also allows maximum muscle and tendon variation throughout point and click operations. Variation is only one of the keys. We also found that when the hand is placed in this balanced posture, local hand muscles come into play. This minimizes the need…

Book player.

The MP-02-Card Hard Disk player. A Chinese 3.5” HDD, USB 2.0, multi memory card A/V player cleverly designed to look like a book. Photos, music, video. Question. Is this to make us feel more comfortable with this scary new technology, or to deter villains from making off with our prized multimedia memories?  MPEG4 (AVI) playback MPG/DAT/VOB/MP3/WMA/WAV/JPG playback Supports CF/MD/MMC/MS/SD/SM Output: Component/VGA/S-video; Stereo/Photolink Kara-OK PAL/NTSC color system

Tank Buster.

A Tank Buster missile on your desk says so much more about you than a boring old in and out tray, don’t you think? $79.95.  Armor-piercing missiles were built during the Cold War for the M1-A1 Abrams tank (America’s primary battle tank). Dubbed “tank busters,” they were designed to take out heavily armored Warsaw Pact tanks on the European battlefield. Tens of thousands of these missiles were destroyed under the Department of Defense’s “crush rule.” By our wits, some luck and a…

Underwater tank.

The Underwater Tank. Why not spend some time really getting to know your fish with this aquarium and underwater periscope combo? The best fun you can have without going Glug! £29.99 ($48.49).  The scope works like a reverse periscope – a system of lenses and mirrors give you the feeling that you are observing from inside a mini submersible. Pointing deep into the tank, the periscope lets you inspect your fish at their own level, and a fish feeder has…
