This is a great idea, and I'm going to have to get one of these as soon as they're for sale. Here's some of the details:
AirStash stores your movies, music, photos, and documents and wirelessly shares them with your phone, media player, netbook, tablet, computer, and more. Use AirStash like a USB flash drive to drag & drop the files you want to your SD card while charging the built-in lithium polymer battery, then unplug & play on all of your browser-enabled WiFi devices.If you know how to use a USB drive and a web browser, you know how to use AirStash. Once you own AirStash, every other USB flash drive will seem less evolved.
Break through the storage limits on your iPhone and iPod touch with AirStash! There's no need to decide what files to squeeze onto your iPhone—bring them all with AirStash! Supply a single SD card for storage capacity up to 32GB, or bring along additional SD cards for unlimited storage on-the-go. Because AirStash is wireless, you can keep using your favorite case and accessories while AirStash sits in your pocket, backpack, purse, or briefcase.
You can read all about it

This is a $5,270.00 pen. Seriously.
It is a hell of a pen, but that's a little out of control. Here's the details on what it does:
Incredibly innovative and functional, this piece was inspired by the needs of South Pole explorers. An artificial flint in the barrel creates a spark when struck against the magnesium material around the cap button, allowing explorers to light a fire, while a luminous cap ring enables the pen to be easily found in the dark. Unusually, the fountain pen forepart is interchangeable with a ballpoint forepart (included) – much better for writing a journal while on an expedition! The anodised aluminium barrel is strong but lightweight, and contrasts well with the polished palladium plated attributes.
There's only a 150 of them being made, and the site says that they're currently sold out. Which means that 150 people spent $5,270.00 on a pen.
You can check it out over at the Dunhill site HERE.

You might have caught the post earlier in the week about Olivia Munn's love of pie, and her petition for a National Pie Week.
The deal was that if she received over 50,000 signatures, she would jump into a giant pie wearing a french maid outfit.
As of showtime on Friday, they had 60,000 signatures, and Oliva made good on her promise, with the help of her co-star Kevin Pereira.
You can check out a video of the jump, an HD version, and a clip of how the pie was made, over at the Attack of the Show page HERE.

If you're a fan of Attack of the Show, or even if you're not, you should know who Olivia Munn is. Part goofball you can have fun with, part sexy girl you want to go home with.
Well, it seems Olivia loves pie, and is trying to get the last week of January named National Pie Week. As an incentive, she said that if her online petition received 10,000 signatures by the end of this week, she would jump into a giant pie.
The ten grand mark was hit almost in the first day, so they upped the ante a bit. If they received 25,000 signatures, Olivia would jump into the pie in a french maid outfit. That was enough to get me to sign it. However…
It's only Wednesday and they've already received over the 25k signatures for that. Well, the same day that they made the 25k announcement, they went a little crazy, and said that if they receive 50,000 signatures, she would nose die into the giant pie in a super sexy french maid outfit. The current plan is that the sexy outfit is pretty much a bra and miniskirt.
I thought I would help out, and see if I could send some signatures their way. Not only is it for a good cause (who doesn't like pie?) but the outfit and pie jump will be well worth it.
You can catch a video of their Wednesday show HERE where they talk about it.
More importantly, you can go and sign Olivia Munn's petition HERE.
Power to the pie.

If you hit the site anytime yesterday afternoon, you probably got a page stating that my web hosting company suspended Vicepost. I, however, didn't see the email until I logged in tonight to write some posts.
I then call said Web Hosting company.
Call #1 – They tell me something is happening with my site, and it's jacking up the CPU usage on the server I'm on. Something with SQl and my databases. I look through everything, can't find a damn thing that would be causing it in an hour of looking. I call back.
Call #2 – They tell me it's my site. Can't turn it back on. Something in there is wrong, and it's causing problems. I explain that I can't find anything, nothing in the last month (other than new posts) has changed about my site. Nope, the guy says it's my site, and then actually starts to go into a sales pitch about "Maybe you've outgrown shared hosting, we have several…" and that's as far as he gets before I hang up. I once worked at a help desk, and normally I try to be as nice as possible to the tech on the phone. Though when you've nuked my site and I'm scrambling to try and figure out why, a sales pitch to get more money from me makes all the nice go away.
I spend another half an hour looking through stuff, even deleting two test sites that I have, just in case. Nothing makes sense. It should be fine. I call back.
Call #3 – I explain everything I went through. I explain that my sites not that big. It didn't get crushed with traffic (though that would have at least been a nice problem). I ran though the database info. All of that.
I get put on hold. For a good little bit. The tech then comes back and explains that they ran a bunch of tests and scripts for my site and found…it wasn't Vicepost causing the problem. It was most likely some other site.
Oops, their mistake. They take my site down for a good 13+ hours, have me chasing ghosts for a total of about two hours, and it had nothing to do with my site at all.
I am VERY unhappy right now.
In light of all the great fun I've had this evening, there probably won't be any new posts until probably tomorrow afternoon.

This is just crazy. Here's the scoop from Justluxe:
Billionaire Couture, the Italian men's "extreme luxury" brand founded by Formula One mogul Flavio Briatore and designer Angelo Galasso, has come out with the world's most expensive umbrella. Made entirely of black top-grade crocodile skin treated for water resistance, the oversized, ultra-luxe accessory costs $50,000, available by special order from Billionaire Couture's new London flagship in Sloane Street, SW1.
That's right, a $50,000 umbrella made of crocodile skin. Now, it's available only on special order, so I get that's it probably one of those things they don't think anyone will ever actually buy. So it's more than likely just a marketing ploy. If any press is good press, then let me help them out:
Anyone that would actually buy one of these needs beaten with it.
