USBFever rolled out a Gothic looking Skull shaped USB hub. Almost good enough to be a prop for CSI, the skull hub includes a tray for collecting your cr&p.
Nothing too extraordinary except the shape…you have 4 high speed USB ports, two on each side making it easy to connect your cables, USB sticks and other gadgets.
The Skull USB hub retails for $35. Shipping is just $3 from Hong Kong. GetUSB.info has received plenty of items from USBFever and you get the shipment within 5 business days of placing the order. Not bad for $3 shipping cost.

The new USB video borescope from USBFever gives you the chance to check things out that you’ve never wanted to see. Ok maybe that’s a bit odious [and suggestive], but the option is available considering the water resistant camera head and tube.
The USB borescope has a 300k digital camera on the front end, plus a nice accessory magnetic kit for the tip. Now it’s easier than ever to find your keys lost behind the couch.
Two white LED lights are positioned at the apex to illuminate those dark holes or areas.
What is especially cool about the USB borescope is the ability for taking pictures or live video. With the video option you can take those YouTube clips to the next level.
The USB snake scope retails for $64 + a couple bucks shipping.

So lets clarify exactly what I’m talking about here…a TV spy remote is a device that allows you to control someone else’s TV without being around, thus wreak havoc in their life. After all, what could be more upsetting then turning off the TV at your neighbors house during American Idol or watching Jack Bower kick a$$ in 24? I don’t think there is a greater pleasure.
Since you can’t buy a TV spy remote at buy.com or Amazon, or anywhere else, check out this TV Spy Remote tutorial I found at Instructables.
The tools and materials you need could be found anywhere, as this hack was done at a college dorm room and you know those kids have not $$ or resources.
Required materials include:Continue Reading

It’s about “time” someone came up with a USB hub that looked like a watch. What better way to suggest to your boss it’s time to leave then prop up your USB hub just before quit’in time [like that would happen]. This should fair particularly well for those clock watcher types.
There is not conformation, but from the look of the images at USB Fever, the 4 port USB hub really does tell time. It connects via miniUSB with 4 port type A connectors.
The watch also illuminates blue if for some reason you are working in the dark.

It’s not often you need a USB spy camera, but when you do, this is a quick and easy method. The setup is putting a USB camera into your hoodie pocket then running the camera from your laptop stuffed in a computer bag. The situation reminds me of a perfect setup for college days where you need to video a test or capture some funny footage at a party.
Plenty of applications for this type of setup, check it out.

Corsair put an interesting twist on backup technology. They have devised a one touch USB flash drive backup adapter. The adapter has a female USB port sitting on the top of the device. This is where you can plug in any flash drive. The adapter then connects to your PC via miniUSB cable.
At this point, the USB backup adapter is ready to suck information off your PC and stuff it onto your flash drive, with the push of a single button.
Of course you need to set some configuration options in the NovaBackUp software, but once set – you’re ready at any moment.
“Our research indicated that over 80% of users have a My Documents folder of less than 64GB, and more than 85% need to regularly transport less than 64GB of data between different PCs. This shows that USB flash drives are an efficient method of backing up your data, and with high-capacity USB flash drives, there is still plenty of room for your favorite music, photos and even movies,” said Jim Carlton, Corsair’s vice president of marketing.
This is also an excellent marketing tool to encourage users to break away from their 2 year old 1GB drives and saddle up for a larger 16GB, 32GB or 64GB flash drive.
I for one, am a lazy backer-upper and a device like this might encourage me to be more vigilante about data backups.
The Corsair USB backup adapter has an MSRP of $35.

Don’t know about you, but I’ve been searching for a USB hub with a change tray. It would also be ideal if the hub was in the shape of a turtle.
Oh wait, here we go. Thomas of USBFever answered my prayers. The 4 port high speed 2.0 Hub is a nice addition to your desk where you need a space to store the extra lunch change, post-it notes or small paper clips.
So why is the turtle’s jaw dropping to the floor? It’s an SD card reader for SD, microSD and miniSD flash cards.
