The USB powerstick
This may look like a flash drive, but it’s not because it is a power drive which will power up any device as fast as it would if you had plugged it into the wall.

This is a good idea if you are going to be out all long and have no way of charging up an essential device. To charge it up it needs to be placed into the USB port for around ninety minutes, this can then be taken with you and by using one of the nine connectors supplied is can then be used on cell phones, mp 3 players and other devices.
Priced at $70.

The USB stress buster
Now if you spend a lot of time on the phone talking really bad customers who are constantly complaining about this and that, then is probably something that you would be interested as you could get off the phone and bash the devices head in.

Being plugged into the USB port means that it has power and therefore the head can make sound of pain as you hit it, very satisfying and yet probably dangerous for the computer.

A USB wine dispenser
Now you think that this is crazy, well in fact I do too! But it is the season of goodwill to all, so why not plug this into your USB port and pour everyone a nice seasonal drink?

Mind you I am not sure where the wine comes from as there seems to be a bit missing, where does the barrel go? Maybe it’s the French way of having a joke on us all, whatever the mechanics of it, the tap looks a bit retro in style and comes in three colours, oh where’s the wine?

Cell phone with USB port
This is the Sony Ericsson concept phone, this will have a USB port which is going to be very handy and will probably begin to see this feature in other phones.

The design has a large screen and a nice bit of stainless steel added to the buttons.
There is not much word on price and availability but one thing is for sure they need to get a move on, because there will definitely be similar ideas on other brands.

The USB Lighter
Strange as it may seem this “Zippo” shaped lighter is charged up via the computers usb port. It’s a flameless lighter so there is no danger of setting things alight, or maybe there is I wouldn’t like to try.

The part where the flame or heat comes out, can be pushed in and then out of the bottom the usb connector pops out and therefore can then be placed into the port for charging.
This is an interesting concept for a lighter as it does not use flints, gas or fluid, but rather relies on a resistance coil which generates the heat. All they need to make now is an usb cigarette making machine!

Unusual finger mouse
This device can be used with any computer including laptops; it plugs into the USB port and attaches to the finger with a ring like attachment.
From that position the controls are operated by the thumb, which is probably going to take a bit of getting used to, but once mastered it could be very easy and accurate to use. However there may be a bit of finger wobble if it does not fit to good, i.e. either too big or too small.

USB interface, Plug-and-Play, no installation needed.
No mouse pad is required, just slide on any surface.
Ergonomical design - reduce fatigue effectively
Real hardware resolution 1200dpi - better buy for professional designers and game fans.
Standard 3 buttons - left key, right key, scroll button included
Digital encoder technology, operate precisely, prevent faulty movement effectively
Textile coating cable (not rubber coating) - enhance free and easy movement
Specifications:
Operation voltage: DC 5V
Button dynamics pressure: 60g+/-5g
Dimension: approx. 60 x 30 x 25 mm

Fly away powered by USB
This airplane is idea for the stuffy office or study. It plugs into the usb port of your computer and can then be turned on.

Unfortunately it does not take off, but is a really nice fan that can deliver a nice cool breeze for when the AC packs in, or maybe you just need a nice bit if cooling down, when the heat gets just too much to bear.
No pricing details or availability as of yet, maybe later.
