Creative Gadgets
By Kris | September 22nd, 2006 No Comments »USB is almost synonymous with computer peripherals. Of course marketers get a kick out of USB drives because they can print on them, shape them and it is considered a form of reciprocity. USB flash drives come in all shapes and sizes, from the wristband, to the weird, designers find this a versatile interface for computers. Well CNET UK introduces the USB rechargeable battery.
My Two Cents: I think this is a good idea. Although I have to wonder if this is a conspiracy with the USB hub manufacturers to sell more product. I need four of these little suckers to power my camera–I only have two USB ports on my laptop! Anyways, I think that innovation is good and sometimes funny. In the end, although innovation may leave a long and winding R&D trail, it usually produces something worthwhile. Keep pushing the envelope, I’ve yet to see the shelves at Circuit City run out of space.
