It's movements are jerky and not very fast, but this robot can pour a cup of tea and even wash the cup afterwards. Because really, if you're gonna invest four years of your life into a robot, your primary goal should be getting it to do the least exciting things possible. Why not build a robot that sits in a chair and reads a book? Check out video of the robot in action here.

The kit costs $21.95 and needs some assembly, but when complete it basically leaves you with a confusing block of a changing number. It's a neat idea, but if you get out of order or skip a number you might miss your meeting at noon because you think it's 13 o'clock.

You strap it onto your index finger and move the cursor by swinging your finger around using the thumb to control the left button, right button, and scroll wheel. It sounds like a good idea, but there are a few problems. First of all, how are you supposed to type with it on? Second of all, look at it. It's huge. Not everybody competed in the finger Olympics and can lift a car using their pinky. I mean I can, but I can also rip a telephone book in half and bend a wrench into a pretzel.

It has a Kevlar and carbon-fibre monocoque hull (whatever that is) and twin diesel Isotta Fraschini engines which can reportedly push the XSR48 to speeds in excess of 100 mph. For reference, the highly publicized new Porsche designed boat only hits 80 mph. The XSR48 expected to sell for around $2 million and only 100 will be produced. But if that's out of your price range feel free to purchase the boat I'm building. It doesn't go quite as fast and doesn't actually "float" on water, but it looks a whole lot like a ham sandwich. Some might even say it is a ham sandwich.

Perfect if you need an impromptu bar or if you just prefer all your furniture to be inflatable. And who doesn't? If the Bouncy Toilet 2000 has taught me anything it's that inflatable furniture is the wave of the future.

Everything else is pretty basic, but at 3,320 Yen (about $28) you can't afford not to get one. Besides, I've been looking for a new way to navigate Word documents like a game of Mario Kart. Gluing a steering wheel to my monitor just isn't cutting it anymore.

And I hope I never meet the mad genius that put it together, because I think my face would melt in the presence of his awesomeness. The best mod I could come up for my NES was sticking it inside a roasted turkey. It didn't look so great, but it sure tasted delicious. A few more shots of the NEStation after the jump.

That I be afraid of it. That I think if I sit in it I'll never get out. And that's why Humanscale's Freedom chair might be the most exciting chair I've ever seen. It features a counterbalance system that adjusts itself to the sitter, eliminating the need for recline controls. Plus I've always wanted an office chair that looks it could fire nuclear weapons and overthrow a small country. And maybe come alive when nobody is in the room.
