RC Enterprise
Interstellar space flight may have been poo-poo'd on by astrophysicists this week, but that doesn't mean we can't have a little pseudo space-faring fun with this first-of-its-kind RC Star Trek Enterprise. Due to arrive in May 2009, the $80 foam flyer is controlled via a vintage Star Trek touchscreen communicator (Captain James T. Kirk womanizing is not necessary, but recommended).

This replica medical tricorder from Star Trek TOS is hugely detailed and looks pretty much like the "real" thing. It even comes with the removable scanner thingy. Plus it's got light and sound effects built-in, so you won't have to hold it over alien flu victims and whisper "widdlyweep... widdlyweep..." Mind you, I'm pretty sure that's what Bones used to do anyway— he never seemed to know exactly what was wrong with people, did he? With one of these and a bit of carpentry to construct one of those beds with the heart-monitor thing that went "thum... thum...," you could reenact the Enterprise medical scene of your choosing. Available soon for $39.95. [Geekalerts]

Apple Hops Aboard Enterprise: Push Email and Calendars, Activesync and Exchange Support
All the hand-wringing about whether or not the iPhone's suitable for corporate environments is basically being put to rest. It's getting everything a proper drone phone needs: push email, push calendar, push contacts, global address list, Cisco VPN, certificates and identities, WPA2/ 802.1x, security policies, device configuration and Remote Wipe. Plus, the biggie: Exchange support built into the native mail, calendar and contact apps, with on/off toggles for each of them under the Exchange server tab. Nike and Disney (natch) are talking about using the iPhone's corporate ActiveSync support. Will your corporate overlords? More »

Although we don't care much for golf, this USS Enterprise Putter actually looks quite cool—if you enjoy Star Trek (we do). The designers didn't actually intend to make this a Star Trek putter at first, but when they saw how the final double-nacelle cylindrical balancing weight design looked so similar to Kirk's baby, they had to go and get Star Trek licensing and make it an official product. The only way we could improve on this is to make it Picard's ship. [Star Trek via Uncrate via Neatorama via Scribal Terror via Signaleer via Boing Boing Gadgets via Sci Fi Tech]

Star Trek Enterprise Phone
That's right, you actually use the USS Enterprise as a handset—not a communicator or a phaser like a non-crazy product designer would have you use. And for $98, you get a William Shatner signature, a numbered certificate, a ringer that sounds like the Red Alert noise, and even redial and mute buttons. Much like the Star Trek Chandelier, you should give up any hope of further human (not to mention female) companionship if you purchase one. Take it from us; it's not as fun as it sounds.

Speaking as Star Trek fans, if we were rich enough to own a home that had a chandelier, we'd definitely get one of these Star Trek Enterprise models. It features a big lamp as the saucer section and three smaller bulbs as the nacelles. On second thought, the total inaccuracy of this thing (the Enterprise only had two nacelles, thank you, unless you're talking about the Future Enterprise from the last episode of TNG) makes us reconsider our purchase. Holy shit, we're huge dorks. [LampsUSA via Geekalerts via Boing Boing Gadgets]
