Gifts that geeks would love to own and show off.
Buzzaire is, quite simply, a caffeine inhaler. Yah, that's right why drink, when you can inhale. :)
One squeeze, one inhale, and you've just rushed 150mg of caffeine into your blood stream. It works well, because mints or drinks have to go through your digestive tract first before partying in your blood (or through your skin, in the case of caffeinated soap). But, the lung/blood barrier is the fastest way (other than injection or IV) to get caffeine into your system. So, it is almost as good as a 'keep awake' pill.

The convenience of a washing machine anywhere. That's one hell of a reason why you really really need this product (shameless unpaid marketing plug) - the Astone Mobile Washer. This inflatable washing machine can hold about 6 litres of water and weighs only 2 Kgs. Though we aren't really sure how well it will clean, it's definitely a good gift idea at $70 as well. Releasing in June 2006 by
Astone Australia.

This one is strictly for gurls.. these teddies will play and dance with the music out loud after they are connected to an iPod or an MP3 player with a built-in amplifier and speakers. Seems to be available in Japan only. Maybe Techie Diva has a better idea about this one.
