fujifilm-finepix-real-3d-w1

I’m not so excited about 3D imaging – still can’t print them, for one – but I approve of this 3D digital camera from Fujifilm, because its built-in LCD screen lets you view 3D images and videos without having to wear those headache-inducing 3D glasses. Did I say 3D video?…

Okay, so LED-equipped headphones aren’t that useless, because as the video below shows, people can put it on when they’re jogging at night. But I’m sure the incessant blinking of the LEDs will tempt motorists to run you over anyway.

We’ve seen some pretty badass bento around here, but nothing quite like the Rubik’s Cubewich, a puzzling and meaty creation that’s almost too clever to be eaten. Almost….

Salami, kielbasa, cheese, bread–there’s all sorts of goodness in this cubewich! It’s got everything but real puzzle factor, because I’m sure

choken-bako-dog-bank

The Choken-Bako dog bank features a hyperactive dog for a teller. Just place your money on its bowl and it will “eat” it. Actually there’s a slot on the bowl that’s connected to the coin box; the dog’s mouth just pushes the money into the slot.
