USB Pole Dancer: This is one of the most enjoyable USB gadgets. She (the dancer) will perform pole dance for you when the music is played from your computer as its USB port is plugged into your computer. Yeah..she can dance for you for not only your favorite tones but also for your own created sounds. It is the most interesting and entertaining USB gadget gift I have ever seen. It is an outstanding gift for your loved one loves to enjoy dance.

USB Voice Recorder: Another USB gadget gift can entertain you with a lot of audio music or sounds. It comes even with 8 GB memory and can record up to 160 hours long recordings. It is as small as you can fix it anywhere easily during meeting, seminar or a concert. You can add, delete and modify sounds on it by plugging it on your computer. Though it is little in size but works great!

USB Panic Button: It can be the best gadget for the undisciplined employees. Not a joke!

USB Panic Button protects the people to be caught who like to make their own activities at office (like movies, games or any fun stuff). By pressing the button, it immediately hides the currently running windows and set the work pages on the front. Yeah…your boss can not catch you playing games at office if you use Panic Button device. It is small in size and takes less space to be hidden easily on your workstation. You only need to keep inserting the USB cable into the port and press the button at the time of ‘danger’, and it will work the rest.

It can move up, down, left and right to exactly focus and shoot its target. You can control its setting and ‘control panel’ easily through keyboard and mouse. It can shoot up to 15 feet distance and play sound effects while shooting. You can also download or modify your own created sounds. You can send this gift to your friends, they will love it.

USB Disco Ball: Do you remember the disco balls in the old school parties? It is similar to those. When you insert the cable into USB port, it entertains you by rotating round, splashing multi-color lights all over the room and creating a real dance atmosphere. Its colored mirrors with led lights make the atmosphere so romantic and charming when the lights break-up on the walls, ceiling and all around. It really creates fun for viewers. Big disco balls are still in trend for dance parties, music concerts, weddings and even home parties, while you can enjoy a small size disco ball on your desktop. You can also use it when you are not near your PC by recharging it with small battery.

USB Ghost Radar: It is a USB device which can detect the presence of ghosts, Casper or spirits around you. By inserting the USB into your computer port, it detects the unusual magnetic rays rising in your room and beeps with specific sound and light when it catches the ghost near it. It will beep louder depending on the situation if ghost is closer to the device. A gift of USB Ghost Radar can either bring peace of mind to your friends or even make them restless realizing the ghost near them!! So it is fun gadget for those who really do not believe in ghosts.

HP introduced a multi-purpose handheld gadget that is not only an ebook reader, but also a movie player and a fantastic mini computing system. It is called HP Slate. HP called it “the future of media consumption” at CES 2010 event.

HP Slate does not only hold multi-touch technology but also the swap technology that makes it favorite to users. You can either touch or swap the screen to switch quickly between menus. Moreover it has buttons on its sides and audio jack. It is running the Windows 7 and NYT applications. It can play music and videos with great quality and also entertains you with different game applications when you don’t want to do anything else.

I hope HP Slate is not a rumor gadget just to quench the thirst of users with enthusiasm for latest technology news.

Parrot AR Drone iPhone Controlled Helicopter

Still iPhone is top discussed gadget and included more technologies with it. When you are not controlling your TV, car or stereo with your iPhone, you can use it as a game controller. The company Parrot hit with the idea to design a toy helicopter controlled by iPhone, the Parrot AR Drone iPhone Controlled Helicopter.

AR Drone really dragged the dream games to a reality. This great device has been the prior attention of the visitors at CES 2010. This quadricopter is a toy for big boys and is unique in itself. It carries a lot of technologies in it which can be revealed from the video below. This flying vehicle is controlled over Wi-Fi connectivity via iPhone where iPhone keeps an application specially loaded for AR Drone Helicopter. This application allows the users to control the aircraft simply by giving directions from iPhone gadget. Player can either rotate or slant the helicopter and move it to fly wherever they want.

The AR Drone helicopter comes with two mounted cameras. One is on the front and the other is underneath the helicopter. These cameras beam images back to the iPhone which helps the player to see where the helicopter is flying. Player can see their helicopter flying even if it is behind the wall or on the other place away from their site.

Parrot AR Drone is really an argumented reality game for big boys. It includes a couple of AR games together. Parrot has not yet announced the launching date and final price for AR Drone Helicopter.
