Cool Hand Luke USB Stick

For years people have taken it upon themselves to turn geeky items into cool, trendy, must-have gadgets. Look at the success of Nintendo with the Wii, they finally were able to make videogames cool! Other examples include digital cameras, cell phones, glasses, and opening boxes.

Well, now, finally someone has gotten the USB stick right! I’ve seen plenty of failed attempts at making the USB stick cool: the flash light, laser pointer, fan, magnifying glass, etc. I actually don’t understand why it took so long to figure this one out. It was as simple as putting a bottle opener on it! Here’s a quick description from the TrekStor web site: “It is special because it incorporates an extra bottle opener function combining practical data storage with a thirst-quenching aid that is always to hand.”

“Special” might be an understatement, this is awesome!
