Isn’t it about time some of your gadgets started doing double duty? We only have so much space on our desks, and only so many ports on our computers, so it’s about time someone found ways of combining some of those items into one handy device.

If you are willing to pay $20.00 for a 1G novelty USB flash drive, this may be just up your alley.  This thumb drive is shaped, ah hem, like a finger.  Yes, something close to a visual pun but not quite.

Ah, if they had only had these when I was in college.  Actually, if they had had computers when I was in college, my life would have been much easier.  The addition of a bottle opener/usb thumb drive would have been perfect.

Ever feel like a diamond in the rough?  Well good news!  You can become a gorgeous gem after you die with LifeGem. 

This one either hits your “cute” button or your “gag me with a spoon” button.  A new concept cell phone is being introduced in Japan and it is fuzzy.  This phone definitely will not fit in your pocket, purse or possibly even tote bag.

Well fuel cells will be coming out in cars, gadgets, phones and now vacuum cleaners.  I don’t want to think what fuel cells might be used in next.  Could be scary.

Anyone who has ever visited or lived in San Francisco knows Lombardy St.  It is said to be the curviest street in the world and as one who has driven down it, I believe it.  Last Sunday 133 Smart for Two SmartCars lined the curviest part.

Cigarettes can kill you but I’m not so sure about faux cigarette ear phones.  Disguising the earphones as a pack of “Handsfree” cigarettes is certainly novel but not necessarily subtle. 

Now you can get what you have always wanted.  Not a gold plated Blackberry, or iPhone, but a keyboard covered in gold leaf.  You too can look cool while wasting money!

Well the boom box mentality has finally made it to the fireplace.  Now you can purchase a portable fireplace (complete with carry handle) for a mere $3,300.  I can get a wood stove for less that provides more ambiance and heat.  But, I digress.
