This looks cool. Too bad there is no USB version yet!



Imagine what I can do with this!

    there used to be this app for the old MacOS called Invisible Oasis.



    I LOVED it. Not only did everyone in my friggin dorm check their email on my computer constantly giving me access to their login/passwds for my own sick and twisted enjoyment, but I caught my roomate trying to pull scandalous sh*t on my machine.... (yes I am evil, but I never used any of the l/ps for anything shady...)



    Personally I would love this little bugger. The passwd protection on it makes it even funnier!



    Thanks for the post!

    I remember Invisible Oasis. That was great for freaking out the roommate in college.



    That, plus sending "redial" to a pager to get Voice Mail passwords, and you're golden.



    There were some other good ones back in the day as well. One disabled all vowels on the keyboard. I got a Broadcast message (anyone else remember Broadcast?) from the guy whose machine I put this on looking something like:

    I miss college.

    I loved Invisible Oasis too, thats why I find this "tool' so interesting. I will have to buy one, once they make a USB version, or course....

    *sigh* me too.



    Now I have to conduct all my twisted experiments in abnormal human psychology on my co-workers and end-users. They are usually less confused/forgiving. Probably cause of lack of keg-standing/bong-hits at work.



    yeah a USB version of that little guy would be a quick buy....



    In case you wanna see some more goodies...

    check out <a href="http://www.thinkgeek.com."; target="_blank">www.thinkgeek.com.</a> They have this little shuttle that adheres to a flat surface via suction cup and turns that surface into a resonating membrane that produces sound like a flat-panel speaker reportedly up to 75 dB at peak levels. This is awesome. Great addition to the laptop briefcase....



    God I love their t-shirts too. "I read you email" Ha! <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />
