Things I’m glad I didn’t get for Christmas
- ThinkGeek ‘sound costume’ makes you a monster
Feeling the need to get noticed? Attach this unobtrusive little gadget to your belt and stomp down the street sounding like a raging robot or zombie—CNET - USB tentacle squirms, does nothing else
The USB tentacle is not a hub. It won’t open a beer bottle. It won’t fire foam rockets at your cubicle mates. It won’t charge your smartphone. It just squirms. To improve the visual impact, you might want to invest in multiple tentacles to adorn each port on your computer—Amanda Kooser at CNET
- Monopoly, the Zapped Edition
For $25, Hasbro is happy to sell you the Zapped edition of Monopoly. There is no paper money in this game. You put your iPhone or iPad in the middle of the board — and each player gets, I kid thee not, a fake credit card.
You pay or collect money from the bank electronically, just by placing your card briefly on the touch screen—David Pogue at the New York Times - Edible iPhone case melts in your mouth, not on your phone
Smartphone cases veer into the realm of the absurd with a munchable iPhone 5 case made out of rice cracker material—Amanda Kooser at CNET. - Necomimi Brain-Powered Cat Ears
It’s a headband with fluffy white cat ears attached. They perk up, flop down and otherwise turn, cutely and catlike, in sync with your brainwaves—David Pogue at the New York Times
