Currently just a conceptual design, the TEMPO is an external storage device that’s designed to prevent you from losing files you accidentally delete. The clever thing about it is that it actually looks like a little recycling bin (although it might be mistaken for a cup of really black coffee).
Created by industrial designer Franco Cagnina for Intech, the TEMPO connects via Bluetooth to your Mac or PC and automatically stores backup copies of files as you delete them. As you fill the drive, a series colored LEDs on the side of the device indicates how full the “bin” is.
This is one of those great examples of utility and intuitive interface design coming together. I really hope that Intech does end up producing these.

Nice, but is that would be wireless?
For mp3 players, palmtops, mobiles and computers? One for all…?
