Porsche Designed Sled; Bobsled
A bobsleigh designed with the Porsche philosophy quickly and nimbly cut through the snow thanks to directional stability, a low centre of gravity, ease of steering, good braking and low weight (only approx. 4 kg). Exclusively designed by the Porsche Design Studio. Can also be used as skeleton. Tested by German safety standards agency (TÜV). Made in Germany.
Tiawan Tower
This futuristic star shape building was designed by Portugal-based OODA Architecture, in collaboration with the Spanish and American studio OOIIO. It’s interesting how they gave it such an evil feeling by their choice of stormy clouds and rain! Expect to see this in a movie the minute they finish it and hopefully a James Bond movie!

iFan: Charge Your iPhone with Wind
"[It takes] 6 hours to charge my phone, rather long I think — but it works. I can shave off many charging hours by redesigning the fan blades, making it more efficient in catching the wind while sun bathing at the beach, doing walking trips in the mountains or just holding it outside a car window while driving along...." still in beta.

Finally a Fashionale iPod Watch Strap
Flimsy nylon! Neon plastic! Get outta here with your cheap-o iPod Nano watches! The strap for those who grab salmon out of a nearby river for lunch is here. Pure leather. Awesome. Sophisticated—but in a sorta punch-you-in-the-face way. Elecom's retro-outdoorsman (or woman!) straps come in brown or black, and look a little more durable than their rubberized plastic offerings. The straps run for around $43, which isn't too bad to add an extra bit of Bear Grylls-chic to your arm.
