USB Penguin mouse is flat, fat and cute

post from Shiny Shiny on 09 September 2007 12:05:14 PM. © Shiny Shiny

Penguins make technology more adorable, as proved by that so many adorable pieces of technology look like penguins. Take the USB Penguin mouse, which honestly looks like Cartman in a penguin suit. Despite having the novelty shape, it's still ergonomically constructed, with 800 dpi resolution, two buttons and scroll wheel. $15. [Camille]

IAA 2007: Opel Flextreme Concept Car

post from I4U News on 09 September 2007 12:00:00 PM. © I4U News

Opel (GM) will show a hybrid concept car dubbed Flextreme. The Opel Flextreme is really very flexible as the name tries to communicate. The car would allow you to store a Segway and charge it - nice touch! With the lithium batteries the Flextreme h...

Turn me ON: upside down lamp

post from Shiny Shiny on 09 September 2007 11:05:38 AM. © Shiny Shiny

The turn me ON: upside down lamp by Sylvie van de Loo is exciting for its goofy whimsy, because it doesn't generate much heat so you can place it pretty much anywhere (it uses super-bright LEDs like a good little lamp should) and also, to turn it on, you turn it over. It's not totally new to have a lamp that you fondle in order to activate, but it doesn't sport any mercury so you can feel good about your tech. It looks like a mouse pointer designed by a smurf, but I mean that in the nicest possible way. [Camille]

Lunabrite provides light anywhere

post from Shiny Shiny on 09 September 2007 11:05:38 AM. © Shiny Shiny

Lunabrite light strips are completely rechargeable, and provide strategic, easily placed accent or safety lighting. Lightweight and flexible, it can be attached to anything from the marina deck pictured here, to bicycle clothing to provide greater nighttime visibility, to providing accents in the room of a child who's afraid of the dark. (Child, yeah. I sleep with the sun on.) [Camille]

Fishbone ice cube tray

post from Popgadget: Personal Tech for Women on 09 September 2007 09:18:00 AM. © Popgadget: Personal Tech for Women

Unless you're throwing a surprise party for Heathcliff, I personally don't see the appeal of ice cubes in the shape of fish skeletons. Then again, for only about $10 per tray, I guess I don't have to. Via Nerd...

New gadget? New shoes? New gadget? New shoes? Both! With the Shoe Purse Clock you get a funky hand-painted clock cast of super-light high-tech resin, plus you get your shoe jones on - just the one shoe, but it's got style enough for two.

PetSafe Micro I.D. Rescue Collar for Dogs

Sure, you could spend a lot of money and inject a tracking chip into your dog, which will annoy the dog and become obsolete at an alarming speed anyhow, or, you could just hang a PetSafe Micro I.D. Rescue Collar for Dogs around his neck. It contains a little flash drive that you can conveniently update with your pet's name and contact information, and then anybody who finds him can plug the drive into their computer and get the information. While this is probably something you could do with any old cheap flash drive you have lying around (I picked up a 512 meg card from the clearance bin for £2 and wondered if I'd paid too much) this is already nicely put together and at $40, spares you the bother. Now if they can just make one small enough for cats, and stylish enough for my cats. Maybe with pearls. [Camille]
