This has to be the ultimate travel blanket.  I’m always freezing on public transportation and sometimes it’s nice to take a nap when you’re stuck on a plane or train for hours.  This kit includes a blanket to keep you warm and a pillow.  Which anyone that’s used a pillow on any public transportation knows how pathetic they tend to be.  Hopefully this pillow included in the set is far more comfortable.  Not only does it have the blanket and pillow, but a pocket on the blanket specifically meant for your smaller gadgets.

The IXP3 Internet Messaging Clock uses a technology that I’ve seen before, but I’m not certain what the name of it is. It uses LEDs that can wave in the air and somehow make words with specially timed flashing. I’m probably not doing a good job describing it, I know.

If you’ve seen this technology before, then you know what I’m talking about. It can usually be used as some kind of clock or to display pre-programmed messages.

Why use this type of technology for something practical, like displaying Instant Messages. It can connect to any Internet router and allow users to send messages via email or the product website.

The Battery Wizard promises it can recharge even disposable batteries.

Although initially more expensive, the advantage of rechargeable batteries has always been that they cut down on buying more batteries and they cut down on depleted batteries clogging our landfills. And as anyone who has tried it can testify, trying to recharge a disposable battery usually ends up in a chemical spewing explosion.

The MCor Matrix 3D Printer

Rapid prototyping, 3D printing, additive manufacturing … no matter what you call it, the ability to be able to design something in 3D and print it from your desktop is an idea that finally has had technology catch up with it.

Most people I’ve talked to are just fine with the keyboard that comes with their iPhone.  However, there are always a few that have a hard time with that sort of thing.  Especially if you have the tendency to be a little clumsy with typing things out on the iPhone keyboard.  Really the iPhone is pretty good about making it user friendly as far as typing goes, but this iTwinge keyboard is one alternative.

Some of you might remember when I reported on that Japanese horror novel that was written on toilet paper. It would appear that some company has come up with the perfect audio track for reading that novel with toilet paper roll holder that can play zombie sounds.

Yes, I don’t know why they made it either, except for some cheap Halloween gag. Can’t get enough of those.
