			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Elecom a company base in Japan has release a Tiny SSD drive which you can plug directly into the motherboard SATA port. Currently the drive comes in 8GB and 16GB capacities and includes an auxiliary power cable, just in case. The Read speeds are 75MB/second and write speeds are 30MB/second. So actually it is more onto the cuteness and tiny rather than the performance.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>USB Pole Dancer</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 410px"><strong><strong><img title="Abnormal pic 1" src="http://i337.photobucket.com/albums/n382/pcpdynamic/usb_pole_dancer.jpg" alt="USB pole dancer" width="400" height="500" /></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">USB pole dancer</p></div>
<p><strong></strong>USB device was suppose to design to help us, for example USB flash drive to store our file, USB Fan to keep us cool or our laptop cool and etc. In recent year there are a lot of weird usb device coming out. Especially this usb pole dancer, you are supposed to type to make her dance, the faster you type the faster she dances. When you are using your computer you are properly at work or playing game, why will you need something like a usb pole dancer to distract you.</p>
<p><strong>USB Crocodile Flash drive</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 470px"><strong><strong><img title="abnormal pic 2" src="http://i337.photobucket.com/albums/n382/pcpdynamic/usb_crocodile.jpg" alt="USB crocodile flash drive" width="460" height="289" /></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">USB crocodile flash drive</p></div>
<p><strong></strong>In the first place manufacturer come out with usb flash drive, it was to offer an alternative solution to consumers who dislike those bulky external hard disk. They want it to be small so that they can keep it in their pocket and bring it anywhere. But this Crocodile flash drive is too big for our pocket and only have 128mb of storage space. It defeat the whole purpose of having a usb flash drive.</p>
<p><strong>Cryptex mobile phone</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 470px"><strong><strong><img title="abnormal pic 3" src="http://i337.photobucket.com/albums/n382/pcpdynamic/cryptex-phone_weird_cell_phones.jpg" alt="Cryptex mobile phone" width="460" height="385" /></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Cryptex mobile phone</p></div>
<p>The whole idea of having a Mobile Phone is that it can be used in emergencies. The Cryptex phone is so complex and tough to operate that it would take atleast 4 minutes for a person to dial a number on this Phone. If you want to dial a number, you have to turn the dial of every element to the desired cipher. You have to place the numbers in such a way that the umber you want to dial is in line with the green LED. If you want to hang up the call you turn the first segment to “hang up” (red LED). The phone works without buttons and without a display and based on the old dial phones. Lucky this is only a concept phone it is not going to be release to the consumers.</p>
