If you’re ever in China, pick up a Century Sutra 1688. This little gadget not only serves as a cell phone, but also serves as a full on mini-Nintendo system. For more of an authentic feel, there is a remote control attachment device. The Century Sutra 1688 comes equipped with a CD-rom of 1,500 Nintendo games. Â

Looks like your ordinary travel friendly alarm clock…except with wheels. For what, you may ask? Well, we all know how convenient and overused the snooze button is. Although the snooze option may seem like our best friend, it often encourages us to oversleep. That’s when the Hide and Wake clock comes in - after pressing the snooze button, the clock will roll away from the bedstand. It will keep alarming around the room somewhere until you wake up. How genious is that? I definitely need to buy one for myself, haha.

What started as a five year humanoid robotics development project has resulted in a revolutionary movement. Kawada Industries, Japan, introduces the HRP-2 model robot that not only serves you tea, but also does your dishes! How cool is that? The company’s primary objective was to develop a human friendly robot that could help assist people with everyday/practical activities.  Unlike other robot models, the HRP can: walk on uneven surfaces, lie down and get back up, jump, put one leg in front of the other, serve tea, and do dishes.  Â
