What Goofy USB Devices Have You Found?
pluckyduck asks: "What's the goofiest USB device out there? The links below are by no means an endorsement of the company, just links to goofy USB devices to illustrate my point. The first one is not really a USB device, but a wall adapter in case you want to power your USB Coffee Mug Warmer from a wall outlet (hey, there's a concept!). I believe they also have an auto adapter should you feel the need to run your USB air purifier in the car. The latest PC I bought only has 6 USB ports, I'll need to buy a hub soon!" Yes, they even have USB Massage Balls, as well. Although goofy, some of this stuff could be useful in the right situation. What off the wall USB devices have you found? How might you use some of the devices, that have been listed?
I only it for massaging my wrist, I swear!
Of my favourite two (which I have), they include a USB based battery recharger so I can recharge the batteries in my logitech RF mouse (sorry, cant find a link) and the USB Mobile Phone Charger.
Now, on the goofy side, nothing beats the PC 12V Cigarette Lighter Panel. Okay, it's not USB but it's still insane. I want one just so I can put a 'non-smoker' button in it.

Maybe they could make an external USB model?
A USB Massage Ball sounds pretty dang-dingitty close to a teledildonic. A good STD-free way to share your goofiness! Next: a USB massage, er, tube?
The Hubzilla was always one of my favorites. This one's Firewire, but worth it for a laugh.

Surely the USB adapter to let you run your USB coffee warmer on house current is the last thing you'd call an "off the wall" USB product.
...because they go faster....
The Homer Simpson Dot Pal would make comments, such as when the Microsoft Word spellchecker detects a typo.
Anyone else catch that on the USB massage ball page? What kind of philosophy is driving that company, are they good or evil or beyond both?
I Hail our new USB massage ball overlords!
Please, IF I'm at work expecting to relieve myself, "after several pressure-filled hours in your chair..." there better be a god damn local brothel where I can bring a company christmas bonus discount card. Who the fuck do these capitalists think comprise the majority of their technological and scientific workforce? Are we mere slaves to them?
