Cute USB keys. Genius. And, amazingly, not from Japan.

Today, mimoco presents mimobot™ "flashion figures" - the one and only line of fashionable USB flash memory mini action figures!

Aw shit.

Yeah, I'm reinstalling a new OS, thanks to my Mimoco Fucking Yellow Monster Turtle Jump Drive! HAW HAW HAW HAW HAW!

They have to make Mimoco Creampie, where the key is a lifelike penis (REAL penis for the wealthy) and the cap is a dickhead, and when you remove the unit from the port your computer triggers an internal fire and battery acid drips out and the soundcard garbles its last words - unfortunately for you it's the audiotrack from eels.mpg, screwed and chopped.

I like the way the little USB thingy also looks like a face, and it's going "Yup, I'm hiding in here."

USB rechargeable batteries!

(still early days, only AA and 1300 mAh, but it's a pretty nice idea)

Ok, somebody please explain to me what's going on with the meat and all the USB cables upthread.

― Jena (JenaP), Thursday, 5 October 2006 23:49 (nineteen years ago)

the meat is controlled by usb power, do you see?

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Friday, 6 October 2006 02:01 (nineteen years ago)

In practical USB newz, you can now buy this usb crossover arrangement, that has its own drive loading SW built in - so you can connect two PCs (and macs, maybe?) without a network - and BAM! Instant file copying etc. No need for Laplink shit. Tis a a really simple and cool idea.

― mark grout (mark grout), Friday, 6 October 2006 07:23 (nineteen years ago)

I've got one of those. I love it! It doesn't have any memory, though.
