GG DJ Ditty

GG DJ Ditty Looks like the DJ Ditty from Dell is another MP3 player that fell to the mighty iPod's sword. If you head towards Dell's Ditty site, you will be promptly redirected to a page where third party digital audio players from Creative and SanDisk are on sale. The death of the DJ Ditty is inevitable, as most people saw it as a poorly designed iPod Shuffle with an extremely tiny screen and a radio that nobody listens to anyway. The DJ Ditty is not the first digital audio player from Dell that was discontinued - the hard drive-based DJs had its funeral half a year ago.

Handy Steady keeps drinks upright

Most people suffer from minor hand tremors, but there are those who cannot carry their drink without fear of spilling it. The Handy Steady device works in tandem with gravity to prevent drinks from being spilt no matter how bad the tremors get. Just slide the cup into the holder and hold it up via the handle. The built-in mechanism harnesses gravity's power by sliding the cup holder around, enabling the cup to remain straight no matter how the handle turns. It is still in the research stage, so keep your fingers crossed that a commercialized version will be out by 2008.
