We’ve seen plenty of accessories for the iPhone, and quite a number of bizarre apps to make the phone a very useful tool at times. But we do lack apps that are related to medical fields. We’ve seen apps that can check out blood pressure and stuff by connecting our iPhones to a specific device, but now you can even check what’s wrong with that weird and painful smudge on your hand that can’t seem to be removed.

We’ve seen some very awesome designs when it comes to house and interior design, but stuffing ping pong balls all over the wall of your house isn’t really very practical. Yes, it’s new (at least widely known), and looks very out-of-earth, but good looking? I’ll reserve my comments here. Read more…

This might seem to be miniature DSLR cameras, but don’t expect them to perform like your stainless steel all-whether body beast. Japanese retailer JTT has yet again proven themselves to be pioneer of tiny stuff, with their latest offering the Chobi Cam One. The camera will fit nicely in your pocket, though won’t be very comfortable, but you still get to swap among three different magnetically-attached lenses, though — and while you won’t exactly get great pictures or video from the thing, you can at least store a lot of them thanks to the camera’s microSD card slot.
Obviously, you’ll get fewer features compared to your real DSLR, and image quality would not be on par with the real thing, but at least you’re getting a DSLR with the size and weight of a compact. Look for the camera itself to set you back ¥9,800 (or about $118), with extra lenses running between $30 and $60 (bundles are also available).

Yes, most mice might not have any problem doing a 100m sprint on fabric, but it takes a company with a dedicated mousing portfolio the size of Logitech’s to design a mouse specifically for use on the sofa and break dance on it, with the help of Pinky and Brain at the lab.
