Here is another strange gadget from Japan. The Yamanote Alarm Clock offers a visual indication of a train schedule using the hand model of a clock. The labels correspond to the lines on the Yamanote train line, while the hands correspond to where the train is at a given time. In addition, the alarm noises are recorded from the actual station melodies that play along the Yamanote train line. The clock is priced at approx. $65. Hit the break to read the list of specs.

One ring to rule them all. Not forged deep in the mountains of Mordor, but when you slip it on you become drunk and enslaved to its power. It’s no doubt more ‘precious’ than your 18K wedding ring (or that cheap zircon you used to propose). Some saint/genius has designed a Security Ring that slips over your finger while its base stays near your computer; when you move more than a few feet (a set distance you determine) away from it, the computer locks automatically. We don’t need to tell you how safe your ‘special’ videos and incriminating pictures with your mistress will be with this. Sadly, this ring is still a concept… a myth, if you will.
This shiny black-and-chrome globe gives you access to low-end alien technology. It hovers above its black stand with no visible means of support, thanks to the magnets situated directly below and inside the globe… Think HoverBoard. This 4-inch awesomeness retails for $137.
If you want to control your Apple iPod while you’re on the run, you might need the Hangman from Neat Products.

Hangman is compatible with all Dock Connector iPods. It is currently available for $20.

Not much info is available on the PSP-S310 Digital TV tuner except that the device will be available when the Sony PSP Slim goes on sale in September 20th 2007. Priced at $58, the unit comes with an extendable antenna and is the same size as the Sony PSP camera unit. Unfortunately, the gadget will work only in Japan, because it is the only place where you can get One-Seg terrestrial digital broadcasts.
