The Coca Cola USB can doesn’t look as refreshing as the real thing, but will definitely last longer. The USB stick is available in 64MB-2GB sizes, high speed USB and available in silver, blue or red.
The USB Coke Can 2.0 drive has a new, faster version coming out which also stores more data…it comes in a RockStar can.
The pathetic man’s disco laptop light from Brando is now available. Not much to this $10 USB laptop light other than a blinking light every second which toggles between green, red, blue, purple and yellow colors.
I guess you could home-brew a disco light show with a handful of these and a USB hub. Might be a good mood-setter for the traveling sales man and his recent “friend” from the hotel lounge. Thus; pathetic.

I’m on the fence about this one. Solid Alliance came out with a UFD which also incorporates a stamp. It’s called the USB Stamp. Use one end to store data and the other to graffiti up whatever is with-in arms reach. The problem I see with this is the time it takes to eject the USB drive from your OS you could easily have grabbed 3 stamps to do your business.

I’m sure this concept was the request of a customer, but kudos to SolidAlliance for thinking outside the sponge box.

With summer time coming up, a small investment into a USB beverage cooler isn’t a bad idea. Especially after hearing the USB cooler actually works. I have a feeling some of my PayPal dollars will be going towards this real soon.

CNET posted a fun little tutorial on how to convert a floppy disk into a USB flash drive. Not that it would matter, but the USB connection doesn’t read off the floppy disk, we’re just talking case modification.
You can get the thin USB flash drive from Amazon to do this mod yourself.

Brando released another Disney trinket, this time a Disney USB hub available in either a blue Donald Duck or Black-n-Red Mickey Mouse. Not much else to say other than the Disney USB hub has four ports and runs $14.
Are dog tags that hard to get? Well PetSafe thinks so. Their MicroID Rescue Collar is exactly what you think it is, a flash drive fit to set in a dog collar.
Sure you can store the dogs history, owner information and anything else you want, but do you really want to for-go the simple dog tag in the hopes whoever finds your Bassett Hound is savvy enough to extract your dog data? Oh, don’t get me wrong, USB is plug-n-play and

The Victorinox Swiss Army USB Knife is one of the most popular flash drives with a touch of novelty. This week at CeBIT, the famous pocket knife maker cleaned house of Asian exhibitors pushing knock-off look-a-likes. It’s reported that 7 booths got a visit from the German police, some where closed completely.
I reviewed a Victorinox Swiss USB Knife a while back and must say they are made of quality and nothing would be more frustrating then spending your hard earned cash on a knock-off.

With spring just around the corner it’s a great time to get some digital gear for summer. Nothing would fit that ticket better then a USB SurfDrive. Obviously you couldn’t hang-ten with this board, unless you where a USB Star Wars Pez but a great Easter basket stuffer for your little one. USB SurfDrives are available in sizes from 256MB to 1GB with free shipping. Who said USB novelty items are worthless?
Often those USB novelty gadgets are quite lame, but put a little music to it and become very funny. Take, for example, the USB poll dancer.

It’s always healthy to check in over-seas and see what trinkets are in the works. Well, the latest is a Disney MP3 player with a feeble attempt for looking like an iPod. The MixStick is a 512MB MP3 player where the navigation area is circular like the iPod but classy touch of a shuffle and repeat button atop for that Mickey tech look.
And the stainless steel Mickey MP3 player isn’t alone, one can also select from all white, pink with Minnie MP3 player or the blue Stitch MP3 player.

Thanko, maker of all things cheezzy, released the USB gas mask, or to make it less alarming, USB dust mask. Either way it’s hard to swallow any logical reason for this device. Sure you could make the argument for a dirty work environment, but if things are so bad you need a USB mask, just get a new job.
Got to love the “medical” reference in the pic.Â
