Today at Boing Boing Gadgets, there was a a vintage typewriter turned noise machine; the Motorola Aura, a mobauble; and an amazing cell phone called "The King of Cigarettes." Rob spotted a dollar store LED Lament Configuration; Microsoft's Arc Mouse; the Eye-Fi Compact Flash adapter; and a really quite mesmerizing Google Android fan rap. There was acheap USB microscope; an unpleasant EULA from Sony; the iKit, a handheld computer like the old Sharp Zauruses; and jewelry made from old Sinclair/Timex computer keys. John found a fork designed for spaghetti twirling; a portable memo-writing device that requires the attention of hackers; plus a cleaning "gak" for computer keyboards. He also spotted the startling LittleBigPlanet recall, apparently inspired by a single forum post. Joel ogled the Hardcore Computer Reactor, which has its hot innards suspended in mineral oil. There was also a suede sleeve for your notebooks; a Red Jack O' Lantern of Death; a knife-cleansing knife block; 16:9 laptops from Gateway; and the Lockwasher Imperial HD 700. Rest in peace, Mac mini? Boing Boing Gadgets
