My Favourite Thinkgeek Stuff

Category: GeneralJeremy C. Wright @ 6:20 pm

Maybe I’m doing this because I’ve got a baby coming soon (or my wife does); but I have to say, these are some of the coolest gadgets I’ve found on ThinkGeek (thanks to Sketch’s post about the duct-tape wallet).

Before I go into that, though, I really wish someone had customized XBox’s. I want an XBox almost as much as I want our baby to come out… Okay, that’s obsessive, but still, I’m getting sick of playing Tony Hawk 2 again… and again… and again…

Back to our regular list though of cool ThinkGeek stuff:

USB Memory Watch – watch plus USB memory stick? If it was digital I’d scrounge money together and buy it in a second (64MB version… I don’t need more than that really).

SoundBug – I’ve wanted a pair of these for ages. Tiny, portable PC speakers with a nice “ooh” factor, and decent sound to boot? Count me in!

IO Pen – Not quite E-Paper, but nearly… It’s the opposite. A pen that remembers what I write. Does it do text capture? If so, it’d better be damn good to read my writing :o

….

Okay, now onto IWantOneOfThose.com, for even cooler stuff :D Sketch, you evil bugger! Only problem is they don’t deliver to Canada : (

I-Trigue Speakers – I’d seen similar ones in Costco and wanted them badly!

MP3 Player – I’d never really had a desire to have an MP3 player, until I realised that I hate scanning the radio just for songs I like. I’m not sure if the one above (2 hours of storage) is ideal for me (I’d like more… Not sure what’s out there though!).

Digital Camera – This one’s right up there with the XBox and MP3 player… I REALLY want a digital camera. I’m aching to go out and take pictures of everything for my artwork, but can’t because processing’s too expensive. Like the MP3 player, this probably isn’t the model for me, but I think I’d be happy with anything that had a reasonably clear picture. Picture quality over number of shots for me.

Desk Water Dispenser – I really don’t know why… I just think it’s kinda cool. Maybe not with my new title as it’s perhaps not illustrious enough… You think they have one in chrome?

Procrastinator Jotter – I’ve wanted a jotpad for forever, but one with games to boot? Too cool!

Okay, okay, that’s enough for now… Dunno why I’m in such a dreamy mood :o

    Naw, you had the guts to order something, you da man. You just inspired me to look around. I’m coveting my neighbour’s ever-spinning pen now :(
