I’m not totally for sure what this USB gadget does, but just looking at the pictures on Thanko’s site makes me just want to say one word: eeeeeew!

0.85 inch USB 4 gigabyte hard disk drive.

0.3MP camera that you place on your telescope and connect to the USB port of your PC. Snap pix of the moon.

USB digital video 0.3MP VGA camera. Has an SD slot.

iPod accessories connector for iPod nano. Allows connection to you existing iPod accessories with the remote/earphone jack. No batteries required.

USB turntable which allows you to convert your old vinyl collection directly to CD or MP3 with the included recording software (PC & Mac).

R/C plane with a built in digital camera that can take 26 aerial shots and fly to altitudes of up to 1000ft.

Designer Emulation Kits (DEK’s for short) are little snap together kits of lamps by famous designers. They run off of a standard 9 volt battery. I love stuff like this!

WiFi device in the shape of a bunny, that will light up in different colors, and play music depending on situations that you specify.

Dual time watch with high resolution display. World time with 37 cities.

Check it out, another alarm clock that monitors your sleep cycles in order to wake you at the best time for your body. Should I try this one?

Converts handwritten notes into text.

128 – 512mb flash drive with a foldable USB 2.0 connector.

Nifty little widget that allows you to hold a book open with one hand. Also doubles as a bookmark.

USB tags for your pet. Now if Fido or FeeFee get lost, someone with a computer (Windows only…) can rescue them for you. If someone with a Mac finds your pet, it’s doomed.

The next time you get a little bored in a staff mtg, just pull out your USB shaver and touch up your chin or legs.

Wooden car kits for kids (or those of us that are young at heart) that have interchangeable parts.

Garmin’s next-generation line of personal trainers for runners and outdoor enthusiasts.

Wow! Now here’s a teensy tiny Bluetooth headset that I might actually use. It picks up your voice through the ear canal. Not sure what the quality will be like, but hopefully we can review it when it becomes available.
