Everybody knows about the Rubiks Cube and guess what there is now a new model of the famous rubiks cube. The new Rubiks Mirror Blocks puzzle makes things a bit more complicated than the original by making each and every one of its blocks a slightly different size. And instead of pretty colors, each one is covered with a mirrored surface, making it just that much more difficult to figure out.

I also found a clip of the new rubiks cube unboxed. Check it out.

The 1984 comedy Ghostbusters is one of the funniest movies ever made, and it will now be remembered as the first film ever to be released in USB flash drive format. PNY and Sony Pictures Entertainment recently announced plans to pre-load the film on specially marked 2GB USB drives.

The film is put on flash drive in a DRM format, so a user cannot copy it. However, you can download it to your PC in case you need your ectoplasmic fix for the day. Unfortunately, if you try and play the movie without the flash drive inserted, you will get slimed, as it will not work.

This is the first time a movie has been used to sell a flash drive, but it probably won’t be the last. Perhaps all movies will be on flash drives someday, but these flash drives should probably be some sort of special packaging. This Ghostbusters flash drive, by itself, has no branding of any kind, but it does have 12 hours of video play, 33 hours of music and 1080 picture capacity.

So, “who ya gonna call” if you want the Ghostbusters 2GB flash drive? The Argos website! It is at a high price of $53, but as Bill Murray said in the film, “no job is too big, no fee is too big”.

Phantom Keystroker

I’m a bit of a prankster at times, especially when it comes to friend’s computers. My favorite gag is to take a screenshot of their desktop, hide their icons, then replace their background with said snapshot. You’d be surprised at how long it can take some people to catch on to the ruse. Needless to say, I love this Phantom Keystroker.

This little gadget needs only to be plugged into the back of someone’s PC. After a designated amount of time, it will begin moving the cursor around and typing random text. Those with little computer knowledge will freak out and think someone is hacking their computer and stealing their identity, while tech-savvy people will believe that a friend has jokingly taken remote control of their PC. Only after everyone is crowded around their desk will they realize that it must be something else. At $24.99 it makes for a cheap laugh.

Rock Crawlers introduced two RC cars. The Axial Scorpion and HPI Wheely King are all muscle and hunk when it comes to looks, though it weighs only 41gms! Made with genuine GE .030 super lightweight, shatterproof lexan, the RC models are 12.5″ long x 5” wide x 3.4” tall and come with a detail decal sheet too.
