Ice Ice Baby Cube Tray
White men can’t wrap, or so that’s the general impression that most folks had until Vanilla Ice broke onto the scene a couple of decades ago with his one and only hit, Ice Ice Baby. Why not relive those old school moments with the Ice Ice Baby cube maker? Suck UK has this special ice cube tray that will add some pizzazz to your drinks, and it is certainly a conversation starter if you’re one who is introverted. 20 years too late for this £10.00 home gadget? Perhaps, just perhaps.

Self-Serve Doggie Fountain
There are plenty of fountains out there to make sure that your pet gets fresh water when the need it. However, most of them stay on all of the time, which isn’t necessarily bad if you enjoy the relaxing sound of running water. However, if you’d like to control how much water goes through the fountain you may want to try one of these Doggie Fountains instead. It doesn’t offer constant water flow, it only gives water when the pet activates it.

Orange Power Wellies
How do you like charging your mobile phone using energy that you yourself have generated? If you’re attending the Glastonbury Festival this year, you’ll have the chance to experience just that with the Orange Power Wellies.
What are these new green innovations? Well, these are simply pairs of boots that you wear as you go about with your activities during the festival. While you do so, the soles of the boots collect heat that you can use to charge your mobile phone later on. The Power Wellies are products of the collaboration between Orange and GotWind.

Unofficial Lego MP3 Player
The “Homade LEGO MP3 player” is neither home-made nor officially a LEGO product, but its clever design—each nub is a button—is almost enough to convince me to make a purchase, despite a price of $46 with no built-in memory (it takes microSD) and a size considerably larger than a real LEGO element. (I can’t quite figure out exactly how large the player might be, although I doubt it’s 24 centimeters long as is stated on the product page. It uses a single AA battery for power, though, so that should give some rough idea.)

Crayola Crayon Maker
Crayons and coloring books — two key pieces of the childhood experience, especially for creative types. Well, now we have the opportunity as adults to tinker not just with what we are coloring but the crayons themselves. The Crayola Crayon Maker ($24) lets you melt down different colored chunks into a new crayon — it even lets you recycle old ones — and label them yourself. Now all you need to remember is to (not) stay inside the lines.

iPhone 4
Sure, you’ve seen it before, but that doesn’t make it any less amazing. (This official announcement does, however, make it a little less illegal.) Taking a huge leap from the past three iterations, iPhone 4 ($200-$300) makes up for the past six months of killer Android releases with features like an Apple A4 processor, app multitasking, 7 hours of talk time, a backlit 5-megapixel camera with an LED flash and 720p video recording (and iMovie), a front-facing camera for FaceTime video calls, an eye-popping 960 x 640 Retina display, an all glass and stainless steel body, and a profile that’s skinnier than the latest winner of America’s Next Top Model.

Rubik’s Cube MP3 Player
The idea is from Rubik`s cube puzzle. The only way to activate the mp3 player on is similar to playing with the Rubik`s cube puzzle, by solving each layer has a specific function such as play, pause, forward or back. And of course the only way to turn it off is by completing it. Users can now listen to the music while having fun.

Tron-Themed NES
Once fully charged with black light, Thretris‘ modded NES really comes to life, glowing with a brightness that could only be bested if it were electroluminescent. For added effect, Thretris added some cool blue LEDs behind the power switches. The mod also has a pair of 1/4″ audio jacks so you can hook the console up to a stereo system (even though the sound is still mono).
