Today at Boing Boing Gadgets , we saw a splendid test card sweater , heard rumors of a 32GB iphone , and a demented erotic chess set .There was a pretty engraved MacBook Pro , a pac-man bikini and a neat look at design trends in Apple's official iPod docks ; and offered an insight into Honda's hybrid strategy .John doesn't want an iBikeConsole (it makes listening to your iPod while biking even easier, but no more stupid), but he does want a HP Elitebook with 24 claimed hours of battery life . As ever, marketing strays somewhat ahead of reality . Consolation: Esquire's unimaginatively-used e-ink cover is genuinely hackable .Rob spotted a portable printer from Canon ; an ingenious Russian iPhone scam ; and hankered for a USB desk lamp in the shape of Psystar's legal strategy against Apple ; and found an amazing portrait of the Madonna made of dice , and discovered a gadget that reminded him of his 26-volume opus juvenilia, The Adventures of Fart Man . More edifying is his current tale of life aboard the miniature remote control Star Trek Enterprise .Rob heard a sinister chorus of tortured Furbies ; discovered a tasteful joypad ; praised Olympus' wisdom in reviving old-style designs for the newfangled 4/3 camera format ; and a bizarre marble-spitting automaton .
Joel discovered the art of Chindōgu, or useful but embarrassing technology ; found spaceship-like sculptures made of foam packing ; and there are Guitar Hero-style T-shirts for all the instruments under the spittle-flecked ceiling
