It takes a special kind of nerd guy to strap a hand grenade to their wrist. First off it’s bound to be heavy thanks to it’s stainless steel case contruction. Plus it’s bound to get you all kinds of weird looks as you flip it open to see the time.
Chuck Norris may be the only person in the world that this looks appropriate on. It’s even water-resistant up to 3ATM, which comes in handy when you are pretending to be a Navy Seal. Comes in Army Green or Matte Black finishes with either a skinny canvas or wide leather and canvas wristband. They start around $125 each.

Forget the fact that bombs do not look like this these days. They used to. In fact, every cartoon villain has hurled his share of these babies at an enemy at one time or another.
Unfortunately, hard as it is to believe, this hasn’t been made yet. It’s just a concept. So if you are an old school villain you’re going to have to wait to get your hands on one. If they stamped it ACME or TNT on the side it would be complete for all your needs.

Scare your co-workers and others off with this USB bomb Designed by Mexico City industrial designer Joel Escalona. The storage device looks like bombs that Wile E. Coyote gets from ACME. On the upside, it can store quite a bit of flash or a hard drive. But unfortunately this cartoon bomb USB drive is just a concept at the moment. Hopefully this becomes a reality someday. Until then, we’ll just have to stick to Looney Tunes cartoons. [Technabob]

While it might not be the most convenient USB drive to carry around in your pocket, this bomb-shaped memory device is sure to draw stares sitting on your desk.
Designed by Mexico City industrial designer Joel Escalona, the USB bomb should keep your data safe, since its design is likely to deter to anybody who might have thoughts of stealing it, lest they might get blown to smithereens. The device looks like one of those bombs that Wile E. Coyote might have purchased from the ACME catalog, or maybe from those old Spy vs. Spy cartoons in MAD magazine.
As an added bonus, it’s big enough to house either a ton of flash memory or a hard drive, given its oversize design. At this point, it’s still just a prototype, but I’d certainly buy one.

At a glance, it’s easy to mistake the Maxian E900T for other members of the Maxian family, such as the E900DIC or D900 Neo. Let’s face it — this company has some fundamental problems when it comes to differentiating between models. The latest entry into the lineup comes in the form of a wild, do-it-all PMP — one which incorporates audio and video playback, a DMB receiver, GPS navigation, and an always-handy dictionary into one delicious package. The Windows CE-based system boasts an 800 x 480 4.3-inch touchscreen, a 30GB or 60GB hard drive, support for WMV, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DiVX / XviD, H.264, WMA, AAC, MP3, and OGG formats (amongst others), plus the aforementioned DMB compatibility. The E900T is capable of outputting 720p HD video, sports Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound, and includes Burr-Brown audio circuitry which it outputs via S/PDIF. When you slap this thing into its carmount, it also becomes a full featured GPS navigator, taking advantage of the GPS receiver in the cradle to provide turn-by-turn directions and other navigation functions you know and love, like locating Wendy’s (in Korea, at least). No word on when, or if, this will be available in the States, but it couldn’t hurt to write some letters of encouragement.

High-end manufacturer Runco is headed for the great outdoors with a 42-inch LCD panel that’s ruggedized and weatherproofed for use outside the home. The 1366 x 768-native WP-42HD flat panel sports a cabinet design to minimize exposure to the elements, and has a “Winter Mode” to allow it to operate down to -4° F — low enough to want to watch it through the window instead of beside it. As is usual for Runco, the set includes RS-232 automation, a custom high-gloss bezel, and a $8,995 price tag to match, leaving us to wonder if we can instead pick up eight Vizio sets and just replace one every winter.

We don’t know if it’s really the world’s “first true indoor high-definition LED scoreboard” or not, but even if it’s a close second, the quartet of new screens at the Verizon Center are getting pretty glowing early reviews. Mitsubishi Electric and ANC Sports Enterprises teamed up to install the four center-hung, 25-foot by 14-foot Diamond Vision systems at the home of the Washington Capitals, along with over 1,000 linear feet of LED fascia to display scrolling info. At only 1,280 by 736 pixels, none of these screens is going to make the most out of your favorite Blu-ray flick, but they do make the arena a perfect venue for your next LAN party.

Sanyo’s back with another Xacti solid state camcorder with this, their DMX-HD700. That’s “HD” as in high-def, “7″ as in 720p instead of the 1080p recording action found in their DMX-HD1000. On sale starting October 19th, the “world’s smallest and lightest 720p” camcorder records MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video and 7.1 megapixel stills to SD/SDHC cards. It’s also loaded with the ability to track up to 12-faces, a 2.7-inch LCD, and ISO 3200 sensitivity. Expect to drop an estimated ¥70,000 (about $609) or so for the privilege.
