Thought I'd seen everything ... apparently NOT
For the "geek" in your life that has everything (or almost everything) ... the new (what I like to call) "Rubber Band USB Thumb Drive ... very handy & a definite fashion statement as well ...
(wonder if Lance Armstrong got paid some serious "coin" in royalties for this 'puppy

)
Without further adieu ... taaaa-daaaa ...

the Imation Wristband is the indispensable, go-anywhere accessory for the everyday professionals and consumers.
Wow, guess it's a "must have". I'll take two!

Next up: Biologically Integrated USB Storage
Last night Tucker Carlson did an interview with a guy who has gotten a chip implanted in his hand because he got tired of carrying his keys.
The chip ID's him to a scanner on the door lock, his computer, and if I recall correctly, his car. He convinced his girlfriend to get a chip implanted too.
