mini iPouch for the Apple iPod mini
Here’s another example of a case for the Apple iPod mini - the mini iPouch. It’s essentially a bag with a tie on top that is just big enough for the iPod mini. It comes in a variety of colors and costs $19.99. It’s hard to tell from the pictures whether these cases would do a good job at protecting the iPod from a fall but it’ll keep most dust and scratches away.

Did you know that the average flush of a urinal consumes nearly three liters of water or one gallon of water every time? What if those three liters were conserved for other purposes? Well a study by Triple Pundit has determined the answer to this question by looking at the possible use of flushless urinals at a campus in San Francisco… and the answers are not surprising. Even if 14 urinals on the campus were replaced with flushless urinals, the campus would achieve savings in both costs and in consumption of water. The key is the flushless urinal which uses special materials that repels urine and also makes cleaning easier than normal urinals.

Akihabara News has an interesting gadget for security conscious folks - a mouse that locks your PC when you get more than 2 meters from your PC. How does it detect the distance? Well you carry a receiver on you that the mouse detects. Once you get far enough away from the PC, the mouse will lose the signal and automatically lock the PC. Not a bad idea - similar to LoJack for your PC.. However, what happens when you lose the receiver? Does your PC continually lock itself?
