Artillery USB Hub – Flash Drive as Your Ammo

Ken Xu — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 04:53:42 +0000

Artillery USB Hub, funny twist on a hub with the flash drive pretended to be the ammo for the artillery cannon. This fun usb hub provided up to 3-port for your USB gadget, one at the cannon mouth, the other two at the side wheels. Looks cool for geeks who love to collect army-related weapon.

The Artillery USB Hub supporting USB 1.1 (too bad, not 2.0 yet!), but pretty cool because at the time you insert your Ammo (in this case, your flash drives), you will hear a 3-second long artillery sounds effects.

Cute PUCCA figure Evoluted into USB memory

Ken Xu — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 06:37:19 +0000

PUCCA, the popular cute doll face character has turned into a USB Memory by Korean manufacturer. They coded PUCCA with PUCCA U110, a super cute sitting Pucca doll with her usual red color theme.

Though there is no information about how big the USB memory can store, I can guess it should be around 4GB to 8GB because this stuff is launched in Korea where people are nerds enough to want more storage than anybody else.

The USB memory will be accessible when you plug it off from PUCCA body, and you can actually re-insert reversely to make pucca figure as the USB memory holder. Very cute, but no news when to hit US market.

Bring in this Cat Shaped USB Hub to our desktop might to start a ‘war’ with our old buddy mouse. That’s something to imagine if you are flourish with a good childhood hallucination.

The real life says, there is nothing will happen and unlikely you won’t get any ‘Toms and Jerry’ joking around your desktop. It’s only a cool hubs with Cat Shaped which at first I thought it’s a Dinosaur.

Cat Shaped USB hub is a 4-port USB hub and you can access the port through the backbone of the cat, after lifting the tail-like cover. The specification is similar to any other USB hub such as it’s USB2.0 interface and transfer rate at 480Mbps.

There are only 3-port at the backbone and the other one is right in the mouth of the cat. It’s pretty cool and it has a nice warm orange color. The only downside is the short USB cable which pretty inconvenience. Well, if you are interested, you can head to Alibaba, a China Trader site to get this Cat USB hub.
