Korg Electribe EMX-1

First to recommend

Description

While it isn't sufficient to produce a full-fledged electro song, this Electribe is a good way for a beginner to get his or her foot in the door. I purchased one a while back, and I still dont know exactly how to use it. Its a very complex device offering a wide array of sound manipulation options. To start, it features an eight-part drum machine and two-part synth/sequencer. On the deck are a total of 68 buttons, 20 knobs, a slider, touch sensitive arpeggiator and two valve amps. With some practice, you could be producing your own beats and songs in no time, although it has a somewhat limited number of sound samples.

This thing is great to have for a quick grill when a few friends come over. Throw some coal in it and next thing you know, you're either grilling your own food at a table with your buddies or serving a sizzling dish on the coolest presentation plate around.

Flexible Chair

Description

No point in moving the couch if you can just bend it out of the way. This is a new take on modern home furnishing and, while I probably would never buy it, it would sure be cool to play with.

Rick Steves' Travel Store : Micronet Travel Towel

Description

I spent 6 weeks backpacking throughout Europe last summer. I literally had nothing but a backpack. This towel without a doubt came in handy more than a handful of times as it is very absorbant and folds up to a small package.

Description

This R/C Jet actually uses nitro fuel and a mini jet (fan) engine. If I werent too lazy to actually build it, I certainly would, although Im sure it would crashed and burn about 5 minutes into its maiden voyage.
