I simply can’t imagine a time when this would be useful. Can you imagine the responses this would get if this was presented in The Dragon’s Den?

Whatever next?  A toilet roll holder with an IPod dock?

The mouse is dead - long live the fish.

The Fish is a revolutionary new hand held mouse that will change the way we use computers.

With no complicated set up or software, The Fish simply plugs into any available USB port and is ready to use. Being hand held, surfing the Internet, playing games, designing or editing becomes a pain free pleasure. Without the need for a flat surface, The Fish is ideal for use with a laptop computer on trains or planes, where room is restricted. The Fish is also the perfect computer controller for business presentations.

Check out the image below for the details. Still don’t get it? Then you probably shouldn’t buy one, should you? Sure you could wing it and ‘approximate’ the time based on the position of the sun and act like you can read this clock, but you should probably go get one of these instead.

Computers use on/off switches to tell the time, now you can too! Get one of these puppies and you are on your way to truly becoming one with the binary…

The classic video game Pong is implemented on a 5×7 LED screen worked into the front of the dress. Two pixels on the right and left borders form the paddles; a single pixel is the “ball” moving back and forth.

At hip level, two retro-style game console controllers are plugged in to play the game. Every time a point is scored, the green score display at chest level blinks.
