Join e-Volve Gadget Holster
I found this particular gadget accessory this morning, and I was surprised that my source called it “seriously ridiculous”. Granted, I’m not certain that I will buy the e-Volve Gadget Shoulder Holster, but I don’t think it is a valid candidate for Foolish Gadgets.
After all, most people carry so many mobile devices like MP3 Players, cell phones, portable video game consoles, and other wireless devices, that it’s getting so people need some sort of holster to carry them. It reminds me of the Wrist Band Portable Battery, which has all kinds of chargers conveniently on the wrist, making you like Batman if he put all his gadgets on his wrist instead of his belt.

Printed Seeds advertises the eco-friendly way
We know that CES is just over, but that doesn’t mean your consumer electronics company has no way to promote itself, right? Think out of the box and you get Printed Seeds from Engraved Stones Direct. This is an eco-friendly way to promote your company and its products without impacting the environment negatively – Engraved Stones Direct use natural seeds from a plant in the legume family that grow in Africa and South America. They’re pretty small, ranging from about 1 ½” to 4″ in diameter, and feel almost like leather in the hand. The company is able to print company logos, custom images, slogans or most anything else on these natural seeds, and the printing is scratch-resistant to leave a real impact on your future clients. Talk about going nuts over advertising!
Takara Tomy robo-Q elicits squeals of delight
Takara Tomy is one of those rare companies that tend to impress with each release of its product, and the same applies to the latest addition to its stable of robots – the robo-Q. This bipedal robot is extremely small, measuring no larger than your thumb, and yet it possesses enough intelligence to receive and interpret commands from a remote control. The brilliant folks at Takara Tomy have even thrown in obstacle recognition software so that it is able to get around without tripping over all too often. Definitely worth exchanging a Grant for (you’ll get some change in return as well).

GaitAid Virtual Walker
It is often the fear of many to grow old, and that fear has led kings and emperors of yore to search for the elusive elixir of immortality, but much to their chagrin (and later, death), they found out the hard way that there’s no such thing as doing away with that part of life although modern medical technology has allowed mankind to live longer than our ancestors (also, we run less risk of being eaten up by a dinosaur while roaming around the plains with a spear). This extended lifespan which we’re experiencing at the moment does come at a price though – the older we get, the higher the chance of being struck down by a debilitating medical condition, and among them include Parkinson’s disease which affects our motor skills and memory. There is some light at the end of the tunnel though with the GaitAid Virtual Walker, and we’ll talk about that in depth right after the jump.

Trebuchet Toaster
For those who aren’t familiar with a trebuchet, it is a medieval catapult that uses specially distributed weights in order to fling projectiles at distant targets. It appears that someone has taken that concept and applied it to toast.
As you can see from the photo, the toaster has a specially crafted edge that allows for creating an angle for when the toast inevitably pops out. Apparently, you can adjust the force of the pop so your toast can fly further, but it has nothing to do with specially distributed weights.
We have covered a lot of toasters here at Coolest Gadgets, but most of them aren’t really special, just some new theme, like the Darth Vader toaster. This is the only toaster that takes toast launching to a whole new level!

The USB Tank Missile Launcher
There have been a few different types of missile launchers, yet this one has the ability to chase down your co-workers and friends. The USB tank is controlled on your laptop or PC and from there you can steer as well as make it shoot at whichever target you like. The little pink missiles will be great to take out anyone causing trouble. You can even change the angle it shoots, for those times when your target is up high.

I-Shovel, the Automated Snow Shoveler
Sure, everybody loves the Roomba, that lovable little iRobot device that can vacuum a room all by its automated bad self, so it is only logical that someone would create the I-Shovel, an automated robot snow-shovel.
Somehow, the I-Shovel has special sensors which can detect how much snow has fallen in a given area. Once it somehow realizes that there is enough snow to be shoveled, it starts to work and moves the snow around. The battery has enough power for about 4,000 square feet of shoveling, which is more than enough for an average driveway.
