I’ve discovered the reason why it took Apple so long to come up with the iPad. They had to learn how to farm Super Mushrooms first.

Quick! Get yourself a Great Touchspectations shirt before Apple confiscates them! It has all of the Apple Tablet’s features, lifted directly from Steve Jobs’ mind by a psychic with a Mental Amplifier Helmet!

It’s a shame that I only saw this shirt today, a few hours before the actual tablet will be revealed (or…

From Pocket-lint’s secret Apple “sauce” comes a couple of stolen snapshots of the Apple Tablet. It has four screens, four home buttons, four 3.5-mm headphone jacks, four speakers, and an 8-in touchscreen. 8-inch overall anyway.

The compartmentalized touchscreen will allow users to make and receive a total of four calls simultaneously, take Lomo-like pictures…

A member of the University of Pennsylvania’s Modlab spent the summer at Willow Garage, makers of the door-opening, self-plugging PR2 robot. Either the Modlab guy was really good friends or secretly annoyed with one of the researchers there, because he decided to install a robot that lobbed ping pong balls at the researchers’ cubicle…

We’ve yet to see a gadget really compete against the iPhone, to the extent that subscribers in the U.S. are willing to endure the sometimes horrible service of AT&T so that they can keep using Apple’s revolutionary product.

Give your dad’s Monday night football an extra jolt with the electric shock bottle opener. But obviously you risk getting grounded as well. See what I did there?

The electric shock can opener is sold at BudgetGadgets for only $4 (USD).  The look on your face when you forget about it’s surprise and you…

When we love someone or something, we tend to overlook its flaws and shortcomings, and we say to ourselves that these flaws and shortcomings are just part of the person or the object that we love, they’re included in the package, even though we could mine these flaws and shortcomings for comic material, thus…

I don’t know about you but this is new to me: apparently the English and the Australians are bitter cricket rivals, so much so that they have a tournament, popularly known as The Ashes series, which only features the two teams. Imagine how ridiculous it would be if the EPL had an annual Manchester…

Vaporware manufacturer DuroSports Electronics wants to ease the transition from paper books to e-books with their Smell of Books scented sprays, specifically designed for e-book readers. Not. This is the kind of idea that’s so stupid it’s awesome, and for a while you’ll wish it was true. Then it’ll just be plain stupid. Right…

Been dying to do over your bathroom decor with a Hitchcockian theme? Well I can think of no better place to start than with these accessories.

Imagine the surprise of your roommate when they wake up tomorrow morning to find this Blood Bath shower curtain hanging in place of the old one. Whether they…

Do you suck at Guitar Hero? Got 5 minutes to spare? Time to redeem yourself then. Sort of. Are you a Guitar Hero god? Got 5 minutes to spare? Time to return to the real world. Let’s play Champions of Guitars, a game that was based solely on this picture.

Yes 1975, it’s your…

I remember back in high school, one of my classmates had this gigantic wrist watch that was also a universal remote. He had loads of fun using it whenever we watched a movie in class (Kramer vs. Kramer, Anna to the infinite power, a woman giving birth, etc). I think he’s dead now. I’m…
