iPhone Car Mount

This interesting iPhone car mount from ThinkGeek “stays secure on your windshield and the flexible gooseneck allows you to position your phone where needed.” Video after the break.

Your iPhone clips in securely to the bracket on the front with room to access the dock connector and headphone jack. However, the best feature is the ability to easily rotate your iPhone 90 degrees into portrait or landscape mode.

Personal Watercraft

The Aqua is a personal watercraft that can be used on both the surface of water and underneath, thanks to its capsule-inspired design. Unfortunately, it only seats one. Click here for first picture in gallery.

As we believe, in the near future, people could live under the water. If it comes true, people will need a new type of underwater transportation like a submersible.

Airplane Motorcycle

The MotoPod is an airplane motorcycle capsule of sorts that “that allows you to carry a street-legal motorcycle underneath your plane.” Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.

And judging from the demo video, the MotoPOD looks like it could also serve as an effective canoe, nicely rounding out the land-sea-air transportation trifecta for which every adventuring anthropologist strives.

Ice Car

Lotus has unveiled an ice car concept “specifically designed to help out the Moon Regan TransAntarctic Expedition.” Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.

The biofuel powered, propeller-driven trike on skids is 4.5 meters long and 4.5 meters wide with an independent suspension all around. It also has an ice penetrating radar to detect crevasses and is light enough for a man to pull it across difficult terrain.

Flip Clock

The exposed flip clock from ThinkGeek tells time with plates that rotate “against a bent metal finger, releasing them only when it is the next plate’s turn to fall.” Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.

This clock is unique in that its mechanism is exposed for all to see. Watch the curious dance – the harmony of motors and gears.

Lenovo ThinkPad

Aside from a built-in Wacom tablet, the Lenovo ThinkPad W700 features an Intel Quad Core Extreme processor, NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700 graphics, up to 8GB of memory, and a Blu-ray burner. Prices start from $2,978. Click here for first picture in gallery.

The system packs in two features aimed at graphic artists and photographers which are fairly unique to a laptop: a built in Wacom digitizer just to the right of the trackpad, and an on-board color calibrator.

Torch Flashlight

In addition to being insanely bright, the $299 Torch Flashlight gets so hot that you can even make scrambled eggs with it. Video after the break.

The Torch gets its mighty strength from a 100-watt halogen bulb which runs on a 14.4-volt rechargeable battery. Of course all this intensity does chew up some power – battery life is only about 15 minutes per charge.
