Ice Invaders Ice Tray Makes Space Invaders Ice Cubes
If you have ever felt inclined to celebrate your love of retro gaming with a stiff drink, you may get a chance this spring, when the Ice Invaders ice cube tray is released. Sure there are plenty of novelty ice molds out there, but something tells me that these are going to be a winner.

The Poor Mans Netbook
An ebay seller by the name of ‘brotato’ has created what he is calling ‘The Poor Mans Netbook’, using a large briefcase and various components.
In the large briefcase there is an Intel D945GCLF2 Dual Core 1.6GHZ Atom Motherboard, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, a 160GB hard drive, 802.11n WiFi, Bluetooth and a 14.2 inch LCD display and a keyboard.

Cowon D2 compact digital media player
Talk about tiny, this mini digital media system is small enough to fit in your hand but also boasts top quality images and audio, instead of the constant static that we’ve come to expect from a compact media player. For two and a half hours of charge time you’ll get a whopping 52 hours of music playback or 10 hours of video. That’s enough for the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Cowan D2 has 4GB of on-board memory and an SD slot for more memory for all of your favourite songs and videos.

Coffee Printer – Uses Spent Grounds for Ink
From the Greener Gadgets Design Contest, this one surfaces; printer that uses your own spent grounds as an ink source. Drop the grounds in, insert paper, and move the lever back and forth over the paper to make the image/text.
Innovative, but not sure what to think – Should I use French roast or City Roast today in the printer cartridge?

Electric Banana Eraser
Here’s a funky little item that will surely turn some heads. How many times have you found yourself rubbing away with your old eraser thinking, “This is boring!” — now even erasing can be fun with this wacky electric banana eraser that rubs out pencil faster than you can imagine, thanks to its vibrator action that makes the retractable eraser work great.

I like the idea of the coffee printer, but I thought gadgets on this comp had to be beyond design stage and able to be purchased in shops…
Max Says: February 8, 2009 at 2:47 pm
Well the electric banana eraser, of course!
Can’t wait to get one and bring it out at the next board meeting 
neagle Says: February 8, 2009 at 4:16 pm
The coffee printer printer sounds cool but, Space Invaders ice cubes have to rule over a concept project.
Selene M. Says: February 8, 2009 at 6:12 pm
The programmable Be05 remote control gets my vote.
Deen Says: February 8, 2009 at 6:36 pm

madjack Says: February 8, 2009 at 10:51 pm
sorry to say, this times coverage of which are the coolests of gadgets was quite sad to say the least. I think you think about what needs to be focused upon, or maybe I have assumed wrong objectives…because what you listed was not really the coolest..

I reckon seeing as though it’s almost valentines day, the heart gets it!!

I don’t remember the last time I used a pencil… but hell yeah, banana eraser.
Vadim Says: February 9, 2009 at 7:45 am
Poor man’s laptop is a cool idea.
Adam Says: February 9, 2009 at 9:41 am
Gotta go with the coffee grounds printer. I hate buying toner.
Justin Says: February 9, 2009 at 10:18 am
Pandora in my car! Yes please!
Krysta Says: February 9, 2009 at 1:32 pm
Yet another media player – I guess some things never change. I like smaller though.
James Della Valle Says: February 10, 2009 at 9:20 am
Just think about how funny it should be to have your own Space Invaders ice “cubes”. Just call some friends to a gamming party and show some of these. Awsome sauce.
These are the real cool-est gadgets!
John Says: February 10, 2009 at 11:01 am
The coffee printer is very cool.
