You might remember Walletex, makers of mp3 players on a super slim card. Now they want to get into the medical records game. The Wallet MediCard is an ultra slim USB flash card that will fit medical documentation on it, and you can even fill out personal health records on the outside of it too.

There’s one big problem with the idea. If you lose this card, you’re loosing valuable medical records and privacy. The concept is enough to make anyone nervous. Obviously they could make the card secure, but even as you lose a totally secure card, it’s still lost, so what is the point?

I may have missed a memo, but last I checked Halloween was still a long way off. These should have surfaced around October. But hey, I guess even the Ghostbusters need a mouse that fits their style, though this ghost was obviously based on the Scream mask.

The mouse features an advanced 3-button optical scroll technology to provide you with high precision control. 800 dpi optical sensor. All the usual specs of a mouse. Aside from looks, I think the one thing that might make using this mouse a tad awkward is the ghost’s tail, unless your hand conforms to it. Scare up one of these for $12.

The Comfish aquarium measures 180 x 140 x 55 mm and is controlled almost entirely from your computer while it is hooked up to your USB port. The USB supplies power to the tank’s LED lights, the water heater, and the oxygen pump. It’s all controlled with a program that looks just like the fish tank itself. A camera inside the tank displays what’s going on inside the virtual fish tank on your computer, so you never even have to look at the real fish if you like to neglect animals.

But wait, there’s more. It’s also a room humidifier and a night light. It’s available in red, blue, silver or gold and costs about $50 for those in Korea.

Forget the fact that bombs do not look like this these days. They used to. In fact, every cartoon villain has hurled his share of these babies at an enemy at one time or another.

Unfortunately, hard as it is to believe, this hasn’t been made yet. It’s just a concept. So if you are an old school villain you’re going to have to wait to get your hands on one. If they stamped it ACME or TNT on the side it would be complete for all your needs.

If you’ve had a burning desire to have your workspace all pimped out in neon signs, like “Eat At Joes” and such, by God this is your lucky day. Maybe you just never got to Vegas and have been feeling left out. These USB signs will surely light up your lack of a life.

They have a Smiley, Bar, and “@” all in their Neon glory and they work for both PC and Mac. Just plug it in via USB and switch it on and it will be like a trip to Times Square in your living room or office. They retail for DKK 99,00.

Every now and then you come across a design that is absolutely brilliant. Like this Belkin USB hub that fits in the grommet hole on your computer desk. I always knew that hole was good for something, besides making objects disappear never to be seen again.

Combine that hole with something you can never have enough of, like USB ports, and what you’ve got is gadget gold. The 3″ grommet hub has 4 raised USB ports with openings on each side for hiding cables, and if your hole is smaller,(This all sounds really wrong…) you may need the 2″ version. Simple and brilliant.

At first glance, this little mouse thing is pretty cute with it’s blue glowing eyes, but then you start to wonder if those eyes would pulsate just as your power goes out. Next you are mesmerized and before you know it, you are doing it’s bidding. Hypnotized, you keep buying more, building it’s army. One day soon, when it damn well decides it is ready, the electronic army will launch it’s next offensive from your house. When the last little demon rolls out the door, you will no longer be hypnotized, but you will know what you have done. Drop to your knees, gadget collector. For you have doomed the world. It is appropriate to cry.

Meanwhile in another reality…This tiny mouse from Brando is not a computer mouse. It connects to your iPod, CD, PDA, computer, or other gadget using a 3.5mm stereo audio jack. It’s basically a creepy little speaker.

How many USB ports do you have on your computer? Got at least a few freed up by not connecting your USB boxer or Mr. Burns Web cam? $15 will get you multi-functional USB device to round out your ports and USB collection.

The USB Desk Assortment and Gift Set consists of a center base and four arms which sprout out of the center to offer different functions. You’ve got total combined offerings of, in no particular order, a USB 1.1 hub, a pen holder, a cup warmer, a mini lamp, a mini vacuum and an open port.

This desktop boxer connects to your computer via USB and will act out the punches you throw in an associate PC game. The game has three modes that let you interact with the boxer, letting you throw left and right punches, rotate the boxer around the punching bag and count the times you hit the bag to ring up your score.

Using the left, right, up and down arrows you can take out your aggressions with the speed bag and even work on your finger-eye coordination by getting your rhythm and speed up to snuff. The game will even allow you to set ring times between 1 and 10 minute intervals, increasing it as you build up your stamina, and has included bell and crowd sounds which will be sure to get you made in your cuberhood. The company describes this as the most advanced USB toy of the year, but I guess it’s only March so they just may have that title so far this year.

If you happen to have a love for molding clay, or making pottery by hand, this DIY USB Pottery Wheel project is for you. Maybe you just want to re-enact that special scene from the movie Ghost, while splashing clay all over your keyboard and monitor.

Lucky for you, all you need is a dead hard drive which you can turn into a pottery wheel. Okay, you’ll need to know a tad about electronics too. And you’ll need to follow the link and watch the video. Soon after, you’ll be humming the Ghost theme and pretending that you are making pottery with a hunky ghost. Someone like you really should get a hobby, so this is a good project. The ghost of Patrick Swayze will never do crafts with you.

Sure you can get a regular little rectangle 4-port USB hub just a handful of dollars, but what fun is that? This USB Runner Hub also has 4 ports, costs $12 and looks a whole lot cooler. The ports are cleverly placed in the end of one leg, arm, front of the base and in the brief case that swivels 180 degrees. This running man USB hub stands a little over 100mm tall and supports USB 2.0 and 1.1. It does look pretty neat but unless there is some heavy weight in the base (71g total weight) or some kind of suction cup I think it’s going to be tough to keep this guy on his feet when he’s plugged in and hard at work.

If you fancy yourself some sort of super villain,(And who doesn’t?) you’ll want to pick up one of these neat USB hubs. Whether the fate of the entire free world is in your hands or not, your minions will fear and respect you when they see this on your desk. It says “I obviously have a bunker. Do you?”

The Armageddon USB Hub is only $39.99. How you hook it up to your Nuclear arsenal is up to you. After all, you’re the boss. And then on some magic day in the far off future, when nothing is going your way, just turn the key, flip the switches and press The Red Button! It will make a honking noise rather than destroy the world, but hey, I bet it makes you feel better. No wonder 007 always wins.

Here’s the latest in desk pets that plug into your usb port. This owl is cute, but kinda creepy. Sure, he comes off all wise and all, but I get the feeling that the minute you turn your back on him, he gets all evil. And we all know owls are nocturnal creatures. That means that while you are asleep, this bird is wide awake, plotting your eventual demise.

He has a clip that allows him to perch on top of your computer monitor, or you can use the optional tree-stump. He blinks and moves his head from side to side, while he watches you. He’ll also move his eyes around. He’ll be available on May 5, 2008 and will cost you about $26. If you give a hoot! Video after the jump.

After already spending too much of my day behind traffic lights at intersections and at those metered ramps they have here in the Portland metro area the last thing I really want to see when I get to work is another traffic light on my desk. Unless of course I can use it to effectively stop or at least caution approaching visitors of my current status.

This USB traffic light doubles as a 4-port USB 2.0 hub and has a little switch letting you control the red yellow and green light for once, instead of it controlling you. As if that isn’t enough from a $25 USB peripheral it also can record and playback a 10 second voice message and has a place to clip a memo pad and supposedly some type of screen cleaner. Huh…

Anyway, another one of those perfect gifts for the geek who has to have every type of cheap USB accessory available.

Now you can feel like those suckers putting in a full day at the Springfield power plant. That is, you’ll be under the watchful eye of C. Montgomery Burns with this webcam. You’ll know exactly how Karl and Lenny feel, not to mention Homer. Don’t fall asleep with a donut in your mouth.

The webcam includes a large clip that allows it to be attached to your flat-panel monitor or laptop screen. Specs: 30 fps @ 640 x 480 with built-in microphone, supports USB enabled machines running Windows 98, 2000, XP and Vista, runs with Skype, MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger and AOL messenger. You can pick up this little tyrant for $49.99.
