The Nike version of a USB flash drive has hit the stores in Japan and looks really cool indeed, it is a 1 GB version and comes with a chain as well, to open the device all that is needed is that the toe end of the shoe is removed, but it may be a bit awkward to insert because of the rubber surround.

Works with Windows XP and Mac, 1 GB, weighs 32 grams and the dimensions are W65 mm x D25 mm x H25 mm and will cost you about $20!

Here’s a cool color changing DIY I found by google-ing…
Wow,” you say, “how can you expect to make something wireless and still have it cost less than fifty dollars?” Well I’m glad you asked. “But I didn’t ask,” you say, “I’m just reading.” Do you want to argue, or would you like to hear about my solution? That’s what I thought. For the job of fairly-reliable wireless communication, I turn to my old friends the TX433 and RX433 modules. These are complementary transmitter/receiver pairs that operate on the seldom-used 433.92 MHz frequency. Another strong plus is that the devices are very small. The transmitter (TX433) is about the size of my thumbnail (though to be fair, I have sexier-than-average thumbnails) and will fit inside a standard 9-pin D-Sub hood. As if that weren’t enough, the transmitter also has very loose power requirements (3 to 12 volts). The receiver is slightly larger and is quite finicky about its power (more on that later). Back in the day you could obtain them through TechAmerica, but now TechAmerica has turned into RadioShack.com, and along with RadioShack, their inventory has decreased to the point of phasing out these wonderful little modules. So doing a search on “RX433″ revealed to me the only other online supplier of these miracle devices, a company called QKits in Canada. They go for about $6 american each. I also found some on eBay at comparable prices (and they might be more reliable modules).

Just in case you get tired of holding the book up…

This paper also has the capability to record, but with the price being around $10.65 US per sheet. You probably won’t see many of these around.
Now the picture on the far right is another type of paper. Images are displayed by electrically charging a special ink that is placed between two sheets of film. Fuji Xerox Co. Ltd. has successfully developed a process to determine unique fingerprints each sheet of paper possesses. Making forgery of passports or important docs a little harder.
Personally I can’t wait to get some image displaying paper.

Cool video on how to dismantle your PSP.
A useful video to reference whenever you want to dismantle your PSP, either to install some hardware mod or to find out where all those little Loco Rocos go after you turn it off. Note that this will void your warranty (obviously), so unless you’re at least a little bit skilled with electronics assembly/disassembly, leave it to a professional.
