The KeyCarbon USB is an excellent way to exacerbate the trust issues between you and your spouse.  This miniature device is used to record typing from a USB keyboard.  Reminiscent of a normal thumb drive, this little adaptor can be hooked up in seconds to any PC or Macintosh computer.  All you have to do is unplug the USB keyboard from the computer and plug the KeyCarbon back into the computer with the keyboard cord attached; and no, the computer doesn’t need to be turned on.  What’s more, is that when you install the KeyCarbon with the computer off, the system tray will not display any new found hardware; perfect for you sneaky paranoid stalkers. 
*A little extra money will buy higher capacity, encryption, and a date/time stamp; all models come with an optional white case.

If you know someone that’s a dog lover, you’ve just stumbled upon the perfect gift. The Doggy Mouse by Pat Says Now is a computer mouse fashioned to look like the head of a cute little puppy. The ears act as the right and left clickers with a scroll wheel in the middle. Why should the mouse have exclusive rights to controlling your curser? Fight the rodent monopoly on graphical user interface pointing devices by diversifying onto other species; if not for yourself, do it for capitalism.

BACK IN BLACK!
Kicking off the new 8GB MIMOBOT capacity is the return of the jedi, or former jedi rather; Darth Vader.  Because Mimoco will be celebrating the 31st anniversary of the release of Star Wars: A New Hope, there will only be 31 of these 8GB Darth Vaders available for purchase!
When we told you about Boba Fett (part of the Star Wars Mimobot Series 2), all the S.W. first Series Vaders were long past sold out.  This will be your LAST CHANCE to get the only 8GB versions of the Dark Lord ever made.

The Optimus Tactus was the keyboard that Maximus Meridius used in the movie Gladiator.  Ok, maybe not, but it sounds like he should have.
I guess if you’re going to use a touch screen keyboard this would be it.  Oh, except for the fact that it’s only a concept at the moment.  According to the Art Lebedev Studio, here’s the plan: any part of the keyboard surface can be programmed to perform any function or display any image.  Optimus Tactus does not have physical keys, which means there are no restrictions on their shape or size.  As per the image above, there is a video mode as well as a typing mode (shown below). 
Initially this keyboard could prove costly to the consumer, considering it’s a full length touch-display.  The big question is, would you really use it?  There’s no question that it’s uber cool and could be extremely useful on specialized tasks, but I’m not sure I’d like typing on a smooth surface; my fingers need a little somethin-somethin to know their doing a good job. 
By the time this thing gets to market, Apple will probably have created a shape-morphing tactile multi-display video membrane touch screen, that walks the dog on it’s spare time; or they’ll at least have the patent for one.

Great for graphic artists, animators, architects, engineers, web designers, and people who love to draw. If you’re looking for a tablet, the Cyber Tablet M14 by Adesso is one of the best in its class.
Be prepared for a learning curve if you’ve never worked with a tablet before, but once you get the hang of it you’ll find that it’s as easy as riding a bike or folding a shirt.

Note: the Cyber Tablet does not double as a boomerang, frisbee, or any other flying object.  If fact, it will probably break if you throw it through the air.

The Boba Fett USB Designer Flash Drive is one of the four characters from the new Star Wars mimobot Series 2 line.  The success of the SW Series 1 flash drives gave rise to these new collectibles.  So, like every other good Star Wars collecting fiend, you’ll have to immediately put your imaginary girlfriend on hold and order two of every Star Wars mimobot (one to store in the box and the second to hold while you masturbate).
Mimoco, the Boston based designer/consumer electronics brand is the world’s only character-based USB flash drive producer and has only created a limited number of these collector flash drives; so if you don’t want to miss out, you’ll have to order soon.

Definitely the coolest keyboard for under 30 bucks. The Illuminated Flexible Full Sized Keyboard by USB Brando is 100% waterproof and flexible. No more worrying about your clumsy ass spilling drinks all over the place, if you douse this thing with diet Pepsi all you have to do is run it under the faucet for a few seconds. It’s also good for dust because you don’t have to buy a mini-me dust-buster specifically for your keyboard; especially since those things are complete hot garbage and end up sitting in the back of you desk draw. You may be wondering how well a silicone, rubbery, flexible keyboard actually works. Well, everything you’re reading at this very moment was typed using the keyboard you see in the picture, and I have to say, I’m pretty impressed. I’m a big fan of the silent type feature and the keys are reminiscent of those rubber coated buttons on flashlights that you can’t stop pushing on and off.  Anyway, the keyboard works well, looks cool and cost a fraction of others, what else is there to know?
