No doubt about it: today the Amazon Kindle got the spotlight. Today on Boing Boing Gadgets, I liveblogged the launch, gave my first impressions, and then gave it a perfunctory (but accurate, I hope) review.
Then we looked at a Japanese exploding bomb piggy bank, a mysterious keyboard perhaps inspired by breasts, a sleek hand-held vacuum, a retractable tow rope, a lovely gift guide for gamers, a USB cable doubling as cell phone strap, an expensive but poor Guitar Hero controller made from a real guitar, the dangers of electronics recycling, a goo machine (my nickname at church camp), pens inspired by Nobel laureates, a strange laptop alarm, and an Amazon box robot that they’ll never send me now that I slagged the Kindle. And some deals.
