What can we say that the headline doesn't? It's a hamster wheel. It connects to a spare USB port. Plug it and and watch that furry sucker run for dear life. Round and round. The clever bit - Hammy matches his pace to your typing speed. The faster your fingers, the quicker the hamster's pace. In short, we have at long last a USB toy your boss will approve. Expect a flurry of frenetic keyboard activity as the nation's office works try to out-type and out-run each other. Hammy can be yours for a mere 25 quid, courtesy of Crazy About Gadgets. ®

But you get good use out of that, this is pointless.

and I thought a USB Coffee Mug warmer was a weird idea, still might give my cat something to look at I suppose

look at = rip to pieces at the earliest given opportunity

working in my place we get offered all sorts of crazy USB stuff. The coolest we had in was the USB missile launcher and circus cannon

i do like the hamster wheel but its comepletely pointless, the missile launcher is controlled form a cool bit of software on the PC and it makes cool sounds

Check it out!
