Measuring a mere 1.5 inches, the frame can hold about 2 MB of data and is compatible with Windows Vista. The pink one pictured here is a bit too girly even for mainstream feminists. Luckily we have these available in more colors including while, green and blue. The white one is sure to look like an egg.

June 28, 2008 - 3:36 AM : Related Entries - Other Stuff

This cool pocket knife is different in both style and idea. It looks a little uncomfortable to use but is perfectly useful and easy to use. It weight 1.3 ounces and measures a minimum of two inches when folded. It is shaped like a turtle that’s thrown on its back and is wriggling for the love of its life. It is made of metal but also has a turtle-shell-like touch on it as well. It is designed by designer Boyd Ashworth. Handy, stylish and odd in its own little way, this pocket knife can get the job done when you need it the most (if you know what I mean). The Boyd Ashford Turtle pocket knife costs just $40. Isn't that a cheap price for a concept?
