This long board electric skateboard handles like a snowboard for carving turns and travels at speeds up to 20 miles and hour. It has a wireless controlled throttle and braking system and much bigger wheels and trucks than ordinary skateboards. You can’t weigh more than 160 pounds to ride it and the board itself weighs 65 pounds which isn’t light. It sure looks like a blast. Something my snowboarding/skateboarding teen would love to have in his arsenal! But at over $500 it’s not likely!

And around $100, it may be the most expensive too! But come on, it’s R2D2, man! The only thing that would make this cooler is if it doubled as a trash compactor with swiss army knife attachments.

“Remember when Luke and Leia and the gang were stuck in that trash-compactor aboard the Death Star? And the walls were closing in and there was some kind of gross muck monster down there and everything? Well, remember how R2D2 hacked into the computer system and stopped the contractor from crushing everyone, saving the day like a little robot hero? Pretty awesome, right? But you know what the moral of that story was? R2D2 knows how to handle some trash!”

It’s the perfect addition to that Star Wars themed room you have. Especially if it’s a home theater. Made of durable vinyl construction, the R2 trash can is 24-inches high, and you open R2’s head by stepping on his center “foot” A removable interior bucket makes taking out the trash easy – although, come on, why doesn’t the “well put together” astromech droid empty himself?
But it doesn’t really need to be just for trash. This R2 unit can also become the coolest drink cooler of all time. Just fill with Ice and the drink of your choice. And if you can attach R2 to iRobot’s Developer Kit Robot, you’ll have R2 serving bar like from Return of the Jedi!

Just in case you wanted to add a little color to your newly acquired Everex Cloudbook, the new PhotoFair will be there to help you out. In a strange twist in today’s digital age, the PhotoFair is just a clear plastic covering for your Cloudbook. It will let you display your photo (or just about anything else) of choice. As of now a release date or price has not been announced. Overall a very simple product idea that somehow could be something I can see catching on, now you will not have to litter your laptop with stickers, you can put them on a separate sheet of paper and switch it up when you get bored or decide to part with your laptop.

I had my good share of ways to cheat on exams when needed to, but it didn’t include any kind of “top-notch” technology, like it happened in Thailand. According to someone on the Ministry of Education, a student was caught cheating during an exam by using his phone watch - can you blame him?

The cheating system while using this kind of gadgets is pretty simple: take a discrete photo of the exam questions, send it via MMS to a friend that has the knowledge or knows how to look for the answers, and wait for a SMS with all the goodies.

The only problem is being discrete, and in this case, the student was caught while receiving/reading the text messages that were displayed on the watch. Thanks to this student, all normal watches are banned from exams, and the next step is to take a look at wall clocks.
