Bionic Bopper Cars for those with deep pockets

Posted: 12 Nov 2011 06:00 AM PST

I know there is this Occupy Wall Street movement and what not, with the working class really frustrated at the way things have turned out for them, but still, there are some others who are above all that is going on below, living in their very own reality. Of course, this elite class have virtually bottomless bank accounts, leading them to be able to afford Christmas toys such as these – the $17,000 Bionic Bopper Cars. If you have watched Real Steel in the cinemas already, then you might be able to identify better.

The Bionic Bopper Cars are actually motorized boxers which are controlled by a couple of drivers who do battle to deliver chin-lifting uppercuts for victory. Just like how bumper cars work, a driver (who should not weigh more than 300 lbs.) will sit inside the robot’s protective steel cage cockpit, where a thumb-triggered button on a couple of independent joysticks will activate the two pneumatic-powered, tire-tread-fisted arms. These arms throw a mean uppercut towards your opponent’s head, where a successful connect will net you a point in the process.

Trust Honda to provide the gas engine which powers each robot’s hidden wheels up to 3 mph for forward, backward, and left and right spins. I wonder what’s the learning curve for this, and who is going to perform the repairs when they get all beat up?

BookBook for iPhone

Posted: 12 Nov 2011 05:31 AM PST

Want to read a book? You might be able to do so by loading up an e-book on your iPhone, assuming your precious Apple smartphone is encased in the rather odd looking £49.99 BookBook for iPhone case. Yes sir, this unique addition intends to spruce up your smartphone life by merging the convenience of a wallet and a phone holder in a single offering. This genuine leather case will not only offer adequate protection for your iPhone against any knocks and scratches, it also doubles up as a wallet to stash all your savings for the future iPhone 5 purchase.

Not only that, it comes with all the bells and whistles of a wallet such as the relevant segments for credit cards, a clear window for your photo ID, as well as a space to stash notes – just in case, you know, your iPhone runs out of battery and you desperately need to jot down a particular figure. The iPhone will fit in nicely into the specially-designed pouch, and I guess you would do well to use a Bluetooth headset with this, unless you don’t mind opening and closing the BookBook often if you’re a busy person.
