Some of the craziest PC gadgets we come across are USB. Many are wacky or just plain pointless but we do get the odd USB gadget that is useful as well as fun.
Whether you are looking for the latest in USB flash disk, the coolest USB toy or the most useless USB gadget imaginable this is the right CG section for you.
This is definitely an overly female product, I’m pretty sure there aren’t many men that could stomach having this on their desk. For that matter it would take a special breed of female to handle this bright pink flower webcam. Likely the best candidates to have one of these are the girls that still play with Barbie dolls. Which for the most part, that bunch is far too young to have a webcam. However, if you are or know a female that would adore this webcam, it’s at an affordable price.
If you’re on the lookout for a wearable USB drive, it wouldn’t be that hard to find one. The task is finding one that doesn’t look either overly tacky or just plain over the top geeky. Then of course there are the few that make an attempt to appear punk and fail miserably. Well for those that are tired of the USB jewelry that falls into those categories, there’s actually a seller on Etsy that you should check out.
Seeing a USB powered light is nothing new, you could easily find one in pretty much any shape or size. What’s odd about this one is that it uses an actual light bulb. It actually claims to be the world’s first USB powered light that utilizes a light bulb. Typically a USB light has an LED light, which works just as well. However, if you’re tired of everything being LED, this would be a refreshing change.
I honestly can’t believe that this gadget wasn’t released sooner. After all, it’s a pretty logical combination, taking the tentacles of an octopus and turning them into little USB ports. This would be the way to jam 15 different ports into one device and keep it looking fun. As opposed to the other massive USB ports that just look plain boring.
Swiss Army's 32GB Laser Pointer is ideal for the corporate jungle.
Swiss Army Knives are always the standard in pocket knives. With high quality engineering, they are the desire of every camper and backpacker looking for a tool to use out in the wild. But sometimes, it’s a jungle out there in the workplace, but now the SwissFlash has you covered.
The SwissFlash 16GB Laser Pointer contains all the usual refinements of a Swiss Army Knife - namely the blade, nail file, screwdriver, scissor clippers, et al - but they a 32 gigabyte flash drive and laser pointer. This means that business types can not only bring their presentation on the drive, but use the pointer to provide proper emphasis as well.
Cost is a hefty $145, but how many times can you buy a piece of camping gear and have it deducted as a business expense?

USB speakers are pretty much a dime a dozen these days. Most definitely fall into the boring category, but they all have their ways that they attempt to stand out from the crowd. Well these are probably going to appeal to the Transformer fans out there. This seems more like it’s for the younger Transformer fans, but I’m sure that won’t stop the hardcore fans from loving these speakers anyway.
If the illuminated mouse pad with a calculator wasn’t really your style, you should check out this slightly more professional looking mouse pad. Granted, most people have had zero need for a mouse pad for quite some time, but there are those that prefer to still use one anyway. If you do like to have one around, this one has plenty of other uses that make it easily justifiable.
I suppose that this next gadget is really for those who want to pay a high price for a puzzle. What you see in this photo here is the MNEMOSYNE 16 gigabyte USB storage cube.
Yes, that’s right, somehow all those pieces will come together to create a cube. Yeah, it brings me back to those days of mental puzzles in the 80’s like the Rubik’s Cube, the Missing Link, and others of its type.
When it is assembled correctly, you will be able to have the USB key that you have been looking for. Yeah, I’m not certain why you would want a storage device like this, nor would you want to pay such a high price for it. Check it out after the jump.
