The teddy bear USB drive

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Funny, Storage, USB by david on the August 16th, 2007 at 12:00 pm

Get this USB flash drive and scare the kids. With the top on the device looks just like a little cuddly teddy bear, but in order to place it into the USB port, you will have to pull the poor little teddy’s head off and shove his body into the computer, where it looks like he is caught up in the works.

The Lego ice cube tray

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Funny, Gadgets by david on the August 16th, 2007 at 10:00 am

This is not just for the kids, but for adults too. Why give your guests the sam old boring plain ice cubes, when you can offer them ice cubes made into little Lego bricks. I wonder if they build up, you could make a nice buidling.

Specs:

Made of durable silicone.
Ice cube tray makes 10 ice “bricks” at a time!
Dishwasher safe.

A single Lego tray will cost you only $7.99.

Make someone an offer they can’t refuse

Posted in Consumer, Cool, Funny by david on the August 16th, 2007 at 8:00 am

If you have ever fancied yourself as a budding Godfather or Wiseguy then you need to have the right tools.

One tool that these guys like to use is the famous horses head in the bed trick and you too can now play the same trick on someone who you like or dislike.

The horse’s head cushion is available from the cleverly named Krop Serkel and it can be order stuffed or unstuffed to save on the postage etc. it is full size, 33 inches long x 19 inches high.

DIY HACK - The Redneck 30 minute hovercraft using cardboard box and save precious resources too!

Posted in Circuits, Consumer, Educational, Entertainment, Hack, Hovercraft, Projects by max on the August 16th, 2007 at 3:38 am

The Redneck 30 minute hovercraft using cardboard box and save precious resources too!

Yep, you CAN make a hovercraft during your lunch break now. Just follow the directions!

I built a working hovercraft using cardboard and a shop vacuum in 30 minutes.

You can build a hovercraft quickly and easily using cardboard, duct tape, and a vacuum. There are excellent instructions available on the Internet. I adapted these standard instructions by substituting cardboard for plywood. In fact you build a hovercraft out of most anything that’s more or less airtight.

You can ride your hovercraft outside by using a gas powered leaf blower instead of a vacuum. Don’t use a leaf blower indoors because they are very loud and create smoke. One problem you will encounter outside is that there are few flat surfaces. Tennis courts work well. If you try to ride on the road you will quickly end up in the ditch since roads have a convex surface that keeps rainwater from building up.

Well… you CAN make an alarm system in 3 minutes too… (That means you can make 10 alarm systems for the time it takes to make 1 hovercraft…)

iPhone HACK - iPhone unlocked SIM

Posted in Audio, Consumer, Cool, DoItYourself!, Educational, Entertainment, Funny, Gadgets, Hack, Wireless, cell phones, mp3 by max on the August 15th, 2007 at 11:24 pm

iPhone HACK - iPhone unlocked SIM

I know, the iPhone is getting really old lately since everyone I know has one now. BUT, we can still laugh at all the stupid hacks you can do to the iPhone.
Check out how you can unlock the iPhone by cloning the SIM card. This might actually be useful for any cellphones that use a SIM card.

Senad, who has previously been heavily involved in the Digital Satellite scene and worked in many projects for Digiturk Cryptoworks, revealed to us that the hack is very real and can be accomplished using a simple simcard reader/writer and software. The Sim-Clone hack enables people to use all the functionality of an iPhone in Europe, with both incoming and outgoing calls, as well as SMS and edge internet. ‘It was only a matter of time’, said Senad, known by the online hacker community as ‘Deepdark’.

P.S. On the sidenote, the iPhone is SLOW! It’s on GSM network and so much slower than Sprint or Verizon. My suggestion is wait until Apple decides to switch to CDMA or at come up with a faster broadband technology. On average, using cellphone speed test, the iPhone came up about 4-5 times slower than my Blackberry and Samsung PDAs.  If you want, I will prove it to you with a video…(well I bet there’s a bunch on Youtube already, let me find some…)

USB LED Man

USB LED Man

Click Here to View in Full Screen Mode

If you ever wanted to get serious with some LEDs, you can really play with this guy. He can mimic any songs, well, it’s not available yet… I bet Garrett from Comfile can hack one up real quick… He made that voice activated Christmas Tree, this doesn’t seem too different. It seems like the eyes and nose are random movements and the mouth simply syncs to the music depending on the frequency… Pretty simple actually…(Looks freakin’ nice on USB though…well…then again…Garrett probably just need to hook up his USB HID Portal…)

Enough ranting about some LED man we can’t buy yet, we will have to wait…

At least, it is BETTER than the aqua teen hunger force LED man… Cool… (or maybe those guys make new versions with this feature…this new LED man is way smarter for sure…)

SolidAlliance might be on to something with their USB Tengu, self talking USB gadget. At the size of a cigarette box this guy comes to life upon USB connection. The LEDs turn bright red into a friendly face, then reacts to music and sound - ideal for those looking for anonymity and in need of a front man (Jeffrey Skilling could have used this a couple years ago).

Not on sale yet - but will be in Japan mid August. Price tag - about $40USD. YouTube video below will make you laugh, worth the look - if you have IE6 click here.

Nose Dive First

Posted in Consumer, Entertainment, Funny by max on the August 15th, 2007 at 8:52 pm

Nose Dive First

This boat apparently nose dove into the ocean from a bigger “ship”. Well, it seems like they should have at least built in some type of automatic-reverse-driving system of sort to save it. They could probably do it for additional $100,000 on top of your $1.5 million yacht. Anyways, the lesson is learned, we got some good ways to go with “some” of these boat makers. Or should I say, “boat fakers”? (Just get a better boat, at least $15 mil some a decent one…well…we gotta find out if there is boat that can fix itself first…)

If you didn’t notice, yes, there’s a dude going “oh sh!t” on the back of the boat as it goes down, to give you a sense of the size of the 55-foot vessel (he was fine)

P.S. We are going to change our mission to “Zedomax - DIYS, Hacks, and satiric opinions on gadgets and technology today.” What do you think? (It will definitely be more fun to make jokes than just “reviews on reviews”… dur…) Yes, why is the guy there? Yes, don’t blame us, we are only the messengers… ;|

Zedomax is 1 years OLD!!!

Posted in Consumer, Cool by max on the August 15th, 2007 at 6:52 pm

Zedomax is 1 years OLD!!!

Hey! We are 1 years old now! (Well, yesterday was the birthdate, August 14th but I got too drunk with some MGDs and I had a hangover from the night before so don’t blame me) You see that little blip we had couple weeks ago? Yeah, our site was down and yes I was too drunk. (haha, I was just kiddin’, I just forgot to pay bills)

Anyway, we did reach more than 1 million unique visitors over 1 year so that is good…

Well, I am going to start drinking more and blogging more along with our good friend David from UK. I just moved to a ocean-view apartment on 12th floor of Sunset district in San Francisco. (I HAD to say that… well don’t worry I’ve got about 20K in debt so… I really need to attend the “bad-spending-habit” class if there is one…)

Anyway, we want to thank ALL our friends!!!

P.S. Hopefully, next year, we have reached 10 million visitors!!! (Then I can goto Hawaii and blog from the beach for sure…)

P.S.2 I think we are going to open a forum for more activity… what do you think?

Our plan is to sell more information, hacks for FREE!!! So come and check out zedomax often for hacks and more ways to be smarter and crafty than the guy next to you.
