Gizmodo: cross

Solid Alliance Silver Cross USB Drive is Holy Data Bank, for Goth Jewelry Geeks

Kit Eaton — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 05:39:00 EDT

Solid Alliance's newest USB thumbdrive will either appeal to geeky clergy-types, or vampire-goth-geek types, since it's an ornate metallic silver-colored drive that comes in a cross-shaped caddy. And it's specifically designed to hang on a necklace. Bizarre: both markets for this product can't be all that big, can they? Still, this gizmo might even contain real silver, since the 2GB drive costs $180. If that's too rich for your blood, there's a brass-colored one, also 2GB, for $145. [Akihabaranews]

Mobiblu Nanum MP3 Player Converts From Cross to Cube

Mobiblu's known for their six-sided Cube MP3 players, but this Nanum is the first one we've seen that actually deconstructs from a cube into a cross. We're not sure what good having a flat cross-shaped MP3 player would be, but these things are seriously tiny. Tiny. Peep the gallery after the jump to see it photographed next to objects that you're familiar with. Seriously, it's so small that we can see someone being able to choke on it.

Blue LED Cross, Cross 2.0

Mark Wilson — Sat, 06 Oct 2007 14:00:07 EDT

The cross may be a symbol of ultimate devotion to countless Christians around the world, but let's be honest, the design hasn't seen an update in like 2000 years. And people are hard on Apple products! That's why here at the Gizmodo chapel (of love), we're really incredibly excited about the Blue LED Cross.

See, while a normal cross says, "I'm a faithful Christian," this newer (wayz betterz) cross can say something like, "I'm a faithful Christian, 'cause I love to sin." Well, that's only if the messages can scroll. You might just have to settle for "chaste-ish." Additional updates include plenty of rhinestone bling, some of which even glow.

While we're not the types to practice regularly, we're fairly certain that wearing the Blue LED Cross to church next Sunday will require plenty of faith in your fellow man. Import your cross for $38, a pittance for the long lasting salvation of LED technology. [product via redferret]

Elecom USB Hub Offers Unparalleled Hubbage

These cross-shaped USB Hubs offer two, three, or four un-powered ports for you to plug all your USB gadgets into. It's nice that they're angled in such a way that no matter how big your USB device is, chances are it probably won't block another port.

What with this and those rose eadrops, it seems that someone at Elecom declared every day a "bring your child to work and let them design products" day. – Jason Chen
