    Geek Toys

    Here are some pretty cool geek toys. Some are DIY and cheap, some are not.

    Here is the interactive LED Coffee table. Very cool. Price: $2,215.00 or you can buy the electronics only for $400/6 panel $500/8 panel. (Becausewecan.org and EvilMadScience.com)


    And here is a "Bristle Bot" For a few $ you can play around.

    The table looks pretty cool. Not worth the money though. The toothbrush idea was kind of useless. Too much time on people's hands.

    You must not have had toys as a child lol.

    The table is pretty cool with the frosted white top. It's more of a regular table look. They have a dining room version too. The kits are a FAR cheaper way to go if you can build your own table. The main bulk of the cost is the motion sensing. You can do an on/off LED setup far cheaper.

    Also, please feel free to post your own geek toys!!

    I'm planning on getting one of those. Got a gift certificate at one of those technology gadget stores and a mini RC chopper's really the only "useful" gadget I've been able to find.

    I have one of the choppers. Let me tell you....they are HARD to fly. At least mine is. I got it at thinkgeek. I'll admit, I haven't put a whole lot of effort into mastering it though.

    I have seen Apache radio controlled helipcopters. One of those would be cool.
