USB teddy bear holds data, scares children
Engadget.com ^ | 6/18/06 | Stan Horaczek

Generally, when someone makes a teddy bear-themed gadget, his/her intention is to overwhelm bystanders with cuteness. But whoever created this little guy, whose head has to be removed in order to access the internal USB drive, must have watched one too many Tim Burton movies. No word on how much it holds or if there are any plans to make these available for purchase, but with your own bear, a thumb drive, some thread and a closet full of skeletons, you can probably make your own without too much effort.

Things that make you go "WHAAAAA....??!!"

When I first saw the teddy bear body attached to the USB port...I couldn't stop laughing. All I could think of was a tiny, muffled, Winnie-the-Pooh voice coming out of the computer "No honey in here either. Oh bother!"

Clinton proved Pooh could be President.

Neither one wears pants.

Both got caught with some honey.

Their best friend was a Piglett.

Lawyers will be getting even richer now, once a kid gets his head stuck in a USB port trying to imitate the bear. I hope they have a warning sticker!

They should have made it with a removable rear-end instead -- then you could have the bear take a "data dump"...
