If you were ever worried that you might lose your beloved guitar through some unfortunate accident, you could probably make a backup of it. This guitar photocopier sure isn’t something that every household will have, but if you like quirky stuff, maybe this will appeal to you. Just drag one arm over the original guitar body and the machine will proceed to carve a similar shape onto a wooden blank. It probably won’t help you too much if you plan to set up a counterfeit guitar shop overnight though.

Alarm clocks always seem to be popular in terms of geek gadgets. This latest Laser Target Alarm Clock looks to try and wake you up on time by forcing you to do some target practice. Of course, if you’re awake enough to actually hit the target (from a reasonable distance), then you’re probably awake enough for work. It’s easy to imagine these alarm clocks finding themselves smashed on the floor. That’d be a real waste of $18, wouldn’t it?

Newton’s cradle is always a popular office gift, and you’ll see it on many office desks, but what about the Boynq Swing USB Hub, which is more or less a USB hub built around Newton’s cradle? While it might look like Newton’s cradle, we’re fairly sure it won’t work like one. It will allow you to plug USB devices into it of course.

While convergence devices may not always be the smartest things around, sometimes people do seem to come out with really smart stuff. Enter the Keyscan, which is a USB keyboard, with a handy sheet-feed scanner built into it. While the sheet-feed scanner won’t do you any good if you want to scan pages from a book, it certainly beats having to have an extra device on your desktop. Scanning is as simple as slotting the paper in through the slot at the top, and the paper will exit at the bottom. The Keyscan currently supports Windows XP and Vista, and costs $160, which isn’t the cheapest scanner around, but that’s the price of convenience, isn’t it?

Folks in the UK will soon be able to enjoy an IPTV solution that is delivered straight to the comfort of your living room via broadband courtesy of Orange UK. These trials are currently being held across the country, involving on-demand services and additional content on top of standard TV fare. Hopefully attractive packages will be rolled out pretty soon that will encompass the TV service, broadband and Mobile in one package, making new generation media intensive-capable handsets all the more useful. What do you think about Orange going up against Sky and Virgin?

A 12-year old Elizabeth Rintels managed to top the other contestants in a “Going Green Challenge” with her “Water Watcher” invention. The Water Watcher is a simple device that hooks up to the shower faucet and will beep and signal with a red light every time half a gallon of water is used. She was inspired to build that gadget after she found out that she could save about 1,000 gallons of water a year by just reducing her shower time by one minute. Her efforts bagged her a $10,000 cash prize.

Hang around computers enough, and you’ll certainly have heard rattling coming from a computer (or laptop). Sometimes that is because of vibration caused by the PC, which rattles against the table. These Nexus Dampers aim to stop this kind of irritating noise by providing some rubber boots for your computer or laptop, which essentially absorbs the vibrations. The added benefit of this is that it raises your laptop or PC a little, which in turn gives it better airflow for cooling.

Gold might be the current standard with the Olympics going on at this point in time, but diamonds are forever as with this diamond-studded Canon PowerShot Elph. There will be five of these available courtesy of Amosu, and each of them will feature 88 white diamonds with a total value of 2.22 carats, making individual cameras worth around $10,000 a pop. Talk about a dazzling present - too bad you’ll need another camera to capture an image of your blinged out gizmo.
