the "Verizon Hub VoIP Phone"
is interesting to me, doubt i would ever use ti because I have a strong aversion to phones but, the concept is cool, and it has visual voice mail which always sounded cool to me. A calendar that i would never input any events too. Movie listings that I might actually use, and the Contact list which i would use (if i ever made a call), but who wants to know the weather? oh yea, sometimes i do

lathan,l-1 said...

the new flash drive is ivery cool i think.I would totaly use it because i could save what ever i would like to save. I also like the camera that is realy nice I also like taking pic. It looks so much fun just looking at the new things that the people could use. How can you explain. I would like to meet the people who make these things happend......!

rodriguez,stephen-1 said...

the soilcharger solar iphone is something i would get.Becouse my father recently bought a 3G and is open to getting any new accessies or games for it. I think because my sister is all "save the whales and trees" that my dad will buy this just to shut her up!

GARRETT,K-4 said...

im diggen the sonic chair...but not for 10,000 dollars. i also think that the rotary iphone deck is pretty cool.

Auxier, Emily - 4 said...

ok so the oled christmas tree is pretty rediculous... come on guys. i think you can live with a normal christmas tree that was grown in a forest some where or on a christmas tree farm. oh and the weird space ship mouse thing is really weird. toooooo distracting. the fake jellyfish thing looks pretty dumb as well. ohh the people who comes up with all of these weird gadgets really must have TONS of time on there hands =) I LOVE MRS. L

brittain,w-2 said...

i thought the MSI GT627 Gaming Laptop was pretty cool, because i play lots of online games (MMORPG) and it would be really good for me because the games would load faster than my laptop that i have right now

murillo, j - 1 said...

The MSI GT 627 features a 15.4 inch widescreen Lcd display with a resolution of 1680 X 1050 processing comes in the form of a Intel core 2 Duo processor.

Calderon,A-1 said...

I like the USB Aircraft Mouse they look awesome but i think thay they should make it in silver, gold and many more fun colors. but they look good. and i love the space ship shape THAT IS SO COOL

Gilbreath,J-1 said...

The Four Eyes USB Flash Drive. Who was bored enough to think "Hey! I think I'll make a USB flash drive in the shape of a rubber pair of glasses! And it'll act as a bookmark! Yay!!!"

Much like the motto of the Eclipse gum Big-E pack...Seriously?

McCorvey,T-1 said...

I liked the Philips Cinema 21:9,because it is based on the same experience at the movies.It's better when you can see it at your house with better scenery.

Broadway,M-1 said...

The MSI GT627 Gaming Notebook is post to be a pretty good Notebook.
With features of a 15.4 inch widescreen LCD display with a resolution of 1680 x 1050 and processing comes in the form of a Intel Core 2 Duo processor. And it has red on it, my favorite color.

Hollingsworth,C-1 said...

The Cellphone gun is wayyyy interesting. So is the pin clock and Tetris ice cube tray, but the asteroid watch takes the cake. That would come in handy in any boring situation.

Thompson,O-1 said...

Tetris Ice Cube Tray
awesome, i can play tetris in my drink :D

Spyfire RC Blaster
FUN!!

Xbox 360 Portable Mod
Beast mode.

Ashley Manis said...

The Aquapict LED Jellyfish Aquarium is the tenth greatest thing I have ever seen. Its mystifying :)

Tetris Ice Cube Tray....
Really?!?! I'd waste money on it.

Luke’s Star Wars Lightsaber - Yours for $185,000. This is the last thing I need to reach the highest level of epic dork.

The Chewbacca Slippers.
Do I even have to explain??

Liles, T-1 said...

My favorite gadget has to be a tie between the lexar jump-drive cake and the puzzle shaped Mp3 player, i really really like cake and odd shaped Mp3 players, but im gonna pick the Mp3 player mainly because the more oddly shaped people keep making them the much easier it will become to hide them in school.

mayfield,s-1 said...

Lumix Camera, is something I like and the Aircraft Mouse, I like how the colors are.The iPhone is something I wish I had.

mayfield,s-1 said...

The Jellyfish Aquarium is really neat,too.

villanueva, manuel, N. 1 said...

I think the soicharger iphone and the car that gets 65 mpg are really cool

otis,j-3 said...

The Solicharger I-Phone Charger is another great alternative with our energy problems. It also gives another convienient method for recharging your phone if you happen to be without a computer. You could be stranded out in the middle of nowhere with a dead phone, but luckily, you have a solar charger; hmmm, the sun is shining bright today.

robles,l-3 said...

the Tetris Ice Cube tray is cool. you never now when you want to play tetris. i also liked the philips cinema. i would like to get a chance to see it. The Four Eyes USB Flash Drive is nice but not as cool as the tetris ice box.

borerw-4 said...

i like the usb drive glasses gadget its like james bond, sneeky.
and the scrable key bourd that thing just looks so cool.

allensworth, d4 said...

i think the cussing turtle is HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!! its a little plastic turtle that shouts profanity......HA!

taylor, Q - 6 said...

i like the solar iPhone charger by the company solight.i hate when anything im using goes dead and i leave my charger & cant use it until i get home.HATE HATE HATE IT!!i think this is something very usefull..

Bixler,T-6 said...

Hello everybody how are u doin. I really like the solar charger, the cameras alot, and the scrabble key board because I like me some scrabble. I really didnt like the usb glasses thing it was very weird to me.

Cuarenta,A-6 said...

i liked the SOLICHARGER for the IPHONE...i just wish they could make one for my phone too...

Meredith,B-6 said...

I think that the MSI GT627 Gaming Notebook is really cool its got a really wide screen, good graphics card, alot of memory, a dvd/blue-ray player, wi-fi, bluetooth and ethernet which is pretty much a gamers perfect computer....

Maness, J-6 said...

ok in the ten minute blogging time we are given at the beginning of class, i spent 7 minutes looking at the diode watch on the second tech site, and am no closer to understanding it. It looks like braille. i hate it. i want it for some reason, mainly just to figure it out, plus it would be cool to have a watch that practically only you can read (at least out of most people).

Sauceda, Maria=]- 6 said...

ok i forgot what i typed since this thing erased my comment... i digg the solar powered iphone charger..hello we need to save enegy!!!
anyways im a super fan of the iphone pencil holder!!!!..i think im goin to make one;)

Copeland, Juston7 said...

the HP Firebird Boodo DNA Gaming PC is really cool looking and has a lot of features that are good for gaming like 4gb of RAM and 2 512 gaming cards it is something that i would work hard for and try to buy for the ultimate experience in gaming

lee, s - 7 said...

Hey! NO FAIR. I want that Philips Cinema 21:9 LCD TVs. Philips Cinema 21:9 LCD TVs is cool tv than I never seen before. I hope Santa Clusae will give it to me. I will be good Zero.

Lopez, M-1~☺ said...

Pocket Wireless Touchpad looks pretty sweet to me. It's as thin as a quarter which I'd have to say is amazing!! But I'm afraid that it could be broken a bit too easily for it being that slim. Not just that, controling the computer from across the room would be fun to mess with peoples minds.

arnold,t.7 said...

the new iFlyz iPhone Stand is very cool. i would like to have one of those because you can put your phone on it to hold it. but i will get one if i had a iphone.

Brice, R-4 said...

If i had to get anything it would be to hook mrs. L up with the cow usb heated slippers!

martines,j-1 said...

i like the micro projector, it could be usefull for those boring places with out a tv or something.

Tri-Edge said...

Now I've seen a lot of interesting thing here.

The Tetris ice cubes would be a blast to have in my Drinks :)

I love the pull the plug and have a useless cup idea. It would prevent people from taking your cup and using it...or put some unwelcome things in your cup.

That cellphone gun is a nice idea. Hopefully criminals won't get their hands on it.

=O I need a Aircraft Mouse. It looks cool.

That gaming keyboard would be much help to me while playing online :)

o_o A star Wars theamed Wii... My wish has come true. Now to find a way to get my hands on one.

Jones,C-1 said...

The Solar powered i phone charger is really cool.i think solar powered stuff is going to become more and more popular as time goes on. its just too good of a resouce to pass up.

arriola,brett-1 said...

I like the secret spy watch that has a camera so i can take pictures without having to carry around a camera!

Adams,B-2 said...

i thank the new flash drive is very lame

Johnson,O-2 said...

I like the Uniea Haptique MacBook Case (if I had a laptop) and the USB Aircraft Mouse is pretty cute too! The Antique Brass Cross USB Flash Drive is flipping awsome and the Cartoon Bomb Tissue Holder too! But last and not least the The Giant Robot Dog!

allensworth, z-2 said...

honestly, none of this stuff looked very interesting to me i'm not saying i woulnd't love to have all of the spiffy expensive stuff it's just that i've seen it all before....except for one thing the cardboard computer after reading about it, i wouldn't waste a grand on something that's gonna catch fire after a few minutes of serfing but it was definatly interesting p.s. i think my brother is a moron and that a cussing turtle is incredibly stupid

packard,a-2 said...

i like the fantasy car that "poops rainbows and hangs out with unicorns" because it just made me laugh and it helps the environment to so it's a double plus!! also i love the usb that is shaped like glasses, that also made me laugh!! and it doubles as a book mark so it's officialy amazing!!

reed, k - 2 said...

I love the iphone stand I think ut is very unique I havent nothing like it before. I also like the samsung phone it looks like it would be pretty cool to talk on.

Dietrich,R-3 said...

The one thing that i thought was cool was the belt-fed nerf gun but it was on the far end pages of it but just think of how many people you could get with that nerf gun.... you could walk into the class room and i would have it mounted aiming right at the door... bam... 15 nerf bullets flying dead at you.... the ultmate nerf gun! :D

anderson,p-3 said...

all of the stuff for the iPhone would be cool for me to add to my collection. the four eyes usb is one of the stupidest things i've ever seen. i like the watch. the solar chair is cool but over priced

cruz,raymond,a-class3 said...

i think the coolest thing on there is the Lenovo announces IdeaCentre A600 All in one PC. its so G, i would buy that in a heart beat. i would use it for the rest of my life because its awsome.

Gonzalez, C-1 said...

OMG, OMG, OMG!!!! That Spy Watch thing is so.....flippin awsome!!! OMG!!! Also the Gaming Keyboard, I would totally get that!!! GAAAAH! I'm wiggin out here!!! And The Belt Fed Nerf Gun thats so awsome!!!! BLARG!!!

Hernandez, Ruben 3rd said...

i loveee all the technology..hahah...it rocks. sweet.

Patton,A-1 said...

the spy watch is awesome.i would totally buy it and use it.it would be cool to spy on people and what not. but mostly its a nice watch

tutt,matthew said...

I LOVE the Spy Camera watch. It is weak in terms of resolution, but a very good buy for a mini camera at $99.99

Lanham said...

Stephen . . . LOL @ Save The Whales and Trees!

Krystal . . . for 10,000 I can find somewhere else to sit. I'm with ya.

I love you too Emily. But I also love the jellyfish thingy. I would watch that all day long.

Goodness Jacob G, could you BE any more cynical? LOL

Crystal . . . I'm so wanting the asteroid watch.

Chase and Luis . . . I'd like to see yall play Tetris with ice cubes. It would be highly entertaining.

Taylor . . . we're doin' fine. How *you* doin'? (I hope there are some Friends fans out there who get this reference)

Yeah Logan, I feel the same way about that watch, but it's just *so* cool.

Shelby . . . you're gonna have to be good *all year* to get THAT tv! LOL

Zack . . . I agree about the turtle. Just goofy. Which explains his attraction to it!

Ruben . . . my instructions are to pick something to give an opinion on! Re-address this.

edwards, a - 4 said...

Any laptop that's on there is fine by me. I just want a computer. It's going to be very important to me soon, and it's my greatest necessity to have. I also like the scrabble keyboard. I wonder if you can take the scrabble keys out and place them to form a word? That would be amazin'. Cellphones are very important too. And I'm probably the only one in the world (besides my parents and granny) who doesn't have one. Maybe a Nokia N97. I also want a brand newcar. I want the Audi R8 V10 because it's silver and it looks incredible.

Byrd,N-6 said...

maestro guitar lazer attachment seems like a really good idea for people who want to teach themself how to play guitar, it seems like it would be much easier then learning from a book.

cano,ruben-7 said...

I liked the Philips Cinema 21:9...i think its pretty sweet to have a huge tv in the leaving room....hahaha!!!!

Trikosko, M-1 said...

They keep coming up with crative places to put flash drives, post-it notes and glasses? They seem pretty rediculous, the post-it flash drive especialy.

Rigsby,D-1 said...

I think i would get the spy camerea watch/ One just because it look like a good looking watch. But because it have the usb with the watch as well. So thats a big part of the reason i want it.
