Flash Drive Combination Lock
Keeping your data secure on your flash drive is always a worry and if you feel that 256 bit hardware encryption might not be enough. You can always add a combination lock to the end of a USB drive. I don’t think we’ll keep out the most determined of data thieves and still looks funky.

Nice list - I love the extra monitor! But I think I have to get the watch!!
That camera cube level looks useful!
The idea of the mac backpack is cool :-) I also loved the Tainell T500 MID and the USB Monitor.
Cool roundup, thanks!
The most wanted: Spy watch, and the price is okay, too.
Second, the laptop is quite cool, also.
Do you know the quality of the video on that watch?
hha that laptop sleeve looks sweet :)
the sleeve is really cool, but is it possible to change the tie? ;)
I've never seen one of those backpack for macs before. pretty good idea.
the platform for the external hard drive is a great idea, i have more than one of them sitting around my imac and it does take up a good amount of space. the cube is pretty clever too, although i never have a problem where my pictures arent level.
BackPack shelf is a much wanted, long overdue idea. Tho' $30 seems pretty steep for a piece of steel.
Very nicely showcased
Laptop Sleeve! =)
Another great post, thanks!
Wow,
I want the usb monitor
My laptop monitor broke, so that would be a great way to be able to use it without needing to plug it into a desktop
If only it were bigger
Spy Watch!!! And the mac bac pac, maybe they should teamup with macpac....
That Flash Drive Combination Lock and Laptop Sleeve look interesting. Nice post ;)
The Spy watch looks amazing!
although it'll probably stop working immediately after its taken out of the box because its made in CHINA!
that watch is amazing, id love to have one, cool
I love lists like this. So hard to come across awesome original gadets like this. Nice!
Spy watch - brilliant now I can be just like 007
very cool, especially the James Bond wristwatch lolz , I love it
Nice list! The watch looks pretty sick, but I think the most useful is the cube level. You don't know how many times I have taken crooked pictures.
That Spy watch was great, but I loved the Tainell T500 MID. I wish it was avaible all over the world *cry.
Love this list. It's great a weekly one of these or monthly would be awesome...love the USB monitor will have to get one!
