Driinn! No more messy cables!

Cables, cables and more cables! We all know what that feels like. Then check out this funky looking solution to put a stop to all that messiness. Woo hoo!

It’s designed in Holland and is aptly named the Driinn - the noise the Dutch use to describe when a phone rings, quite cute really.

The Driinn hangs between the battery charger and plug socket and sits neatly against the wall. Just wrap the cable around the holder and your phone is stored safely on the little ledge.

It comes in black, lime green, reddy orange, pink and white and the shelf is approximately 4″ wide and 3″ deep. Now all you need to do is work out how many of the little suckers you need. Errrm let me think, mobile, Blackberry, iPod, shuffle…the list goes on!

They retail at $10, check out www.spoonsisters.com for more details. 

Can we see through this keyboard?

This is the flattest, fullsize QWERTY keyboard going desgined by Kong Fanwen, the only thing is - it has no keys! 

Yes, your eyes do not deceive you, not only does it have a glass surface, it also boasts a camera and lighting.

How does it all work I hear you ask? Well, it uses the latest motion capture technology which puts it up there with the iPhone and Microsoft’s Surface technology.  Sleek and stylish just not sure how practical it would be.
