USB Stick Gets Second Job as a Bottle Opener

Posted by: MobileWhack.com  :  Category: , Mobile News, Portable Devices


The USB memory stick which also works as a bottle opener is an inventive yet inefficient idea. Following a logical line of thinking you would end up realizing that if you desperately need a bottle opener with you at all times, then you shouldn't mix one with an USB stick. In other words you're likely to loose the stick after one too many beers. Because I am sure you won't realize you need to get that beer opener in your pocket when heading for home.

However if you fancy this TrekStor creation then head to Europe. It's there where where USB users lack bottle openers. You can choose various models, from 1 to 16GB and they will cost you from about $10 to $71.

You might be lucky enough to have pre-ordered the G1 in time. Or you might be just like the rest of us, waiting for October 22nd to buy it in store. In any case you probably want a taste of that Android OS mounted on the HTC Dream as soon as possible.

T-Mobile has a G1 emulator for you to play with. Sure it doesn't have all the functions of the real thing but you can still get a general idea of how stuff works. Don't bother complaining about various issues and bugs you might spot along the way. It's just an emulator for now. You'll get the chance to complain later on about the real thing.

The FCC has just approved Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 but hold on to your hats. You might not see it arrive that soon in your country. The FCC has approved a version X1i which is going to be released in Europe probably. The device they played with lacked 3G support which doesn't sound that good, does it.

But since the X1i was already approve we assume it's only a matter of time until a North American version will be given the OK. Hopefully the X1 will arrive in most markets by the end of the year. Waiting for carriers to announce it.
