he underestimates the POWER of the shiny robot turd. er, dark side.

wow now i feel kinda sad with what i do in my spare time.

wow i hope one feels $70 worth of stupid when they accidentally throw this away while still attached to their empty starbucks cup.

1. put keys in pocket.
2. spill glass of water in lap.
3. impress the ladies with your bulges.

shouldn't there be an ape throwing barrels on that thing?

these have been out for a long time - they were on the today show about a year and a half ago.

you can buy them direct for $19.99.

i had one, wasn't really worth the trouble but then i really like my travel mugs to be stainless inside with as simple a mechanism as possible (easier to clean).

when did comments become a place to pontificate?

here we go: gadget blogs let me learn as much as i can to help in my agonizing decision to purchase a new gadget or simply deal with my old one until the perfect (for my needs) new one comes along.

now if we could get some super high res photos and real-world task walkthroughs, that would be great. sort of a gadget magna carta.

$400 for a trinket that serves mainstream mediocrity is obviously targeted at the "i want to be slightly more classy than my nascar friends" crowd. if you've been enlightened, move along.

oh my god, i haven't looked at my feeds since this morning. 110 posts @ engadget in less than 12 hours?

ehhhh... "Mark all as read" who the fuck has time for this?

i dunno, mythbusters seemed to prove that you should try to get out immediately.

the pressure does 'equalize' when the car fils up completely with water - but i personally do not want to be in a car at the bottom of a lake waiting for all the air to escape from it.

a simpler handy tool for breaking windows would be a spring-loaded center punch. that would be small enough to fit in a pen holder.

just thank noodle that mr. Watson here didn't take a swing at reinventing the common toilet.

i'd hate to see what horrible contraption he expects one to stick their ass into.

spike: there are no heavy metals or VOCs in newspaper ink. newspaper ink is soy based. it's edible. that's how you can take home a fish wrapped in a newspaper.

the white-trash market already has them beat. i've seen fluorescent bulbs that look like palm trees @ walmart.
