Short info

You Can't Have It! The Sony Vaio VN-CX1 Skype Mouse from Dynamism. Check out the Wood Block Clock, too.

Detailed information

You-Can't-Have-It-Monday

An optical mouse, but flip open the clam shell and it becomes a skype phone.  The scroll-wheel becomes the volume control, press it to mute the call, and close the clam-shell to end the call.

The Wood Block Clock

More from dynamism.com, the Wood Block Clock, also called the Maple Clock, looks like a block of wood, but turn it on and it shows the time.  Unfortunately Dynamism has stopped selling it, probably because it was too expensive.

VAIO

Someone told Dick that VAIO stands for "Video Audio In Out".  It's actually "Video Audio Integrated Operation".

Feels Like the First Time

Leo accidentally erased a batch of DGWs recorded the previous week.  They've had to redo them now.

Ka-Ching !! DGW gets it first sponsor !!
