This is very cool, but not sure I could justify the $5,000 price tag. It's a personal brewing machine designed to make home brewing "easier." Easier from a time and effort standpoint, perhaps! You could buy or brew a LOT of beer before you got to $5,000. :-)
I'm all set as far as pizza cutters go. (Do you really need more than ONE?) But, I have to admit I think this Star Trek Enterprise Pizza Cutter is pretty cool. It's the original NCC-1701 even.
I suppose the Enterprise from TNG (NCC-1701D) would have an oblong/oval shape to it and wouldn't be conducive to cutting pizza. (Ug...what a geek I am). ;-)
I could own a pool-shooting, beer-fetching Willow Garage robot. Of course, if I did, I'd probably be SLEEPING on the pool table, too. ;-)
For Father's Day, my son made me a new iPhone. (He wanted to get me the iPhone 4, but it wasn't out yet). So, he took a mac and cheese box and started decorating. It's got a camera on the back and volume buttons and everything! He came up with the App names all by himself. He drew the pictures, too, and the descriptions below are his own.
I LOVE IT!
II Music (Illini Instrument Music) - Plays only Marching Illini music.
Cookamiser - Cooks your food automatically for you.
Listen! - When you press it, your kids will listen to you.
Lawnmower POP - Just press it and a lawnmower pops out and mows your yard for you.
Throwin' Up Sports - Helps your family plays sports with each other.
Work Like THAT - Press it and it does your work for you, "just like that."
Habit Stop! - Helps you stop all of your bad habits. (Not that I have any.) ;-)
FAMILY FUN - Press it and your family gets to have fun.
I love that I've passed down at least some of my geekiness to my son! :-) I also think I should create a few of these apps (like Lawnmower POP)....maybe I could retire early if I did!
First, I've had both the iPhone 3G and 3GS and I think they are fantastic phones & mobile devices. I've also ordered an iPhone 4. Yes, I know there are some reception issues, but I was planning to use a case or a bumper anyhow, so those problems should be minimal.
I still appreciate the geekiness (and the poking fun at Apple) of this graphic referencing Apple's Think Different slogan. HA!
