These days, trees are going high tech by offering their branches up as fodder to be transformed into USB flash drives. Oooms' creatively named Wooden Memory Sticks are crafted from hand-picked wood from the forests of the Netherlands. Match one with your wooden PC for the full mountain man effect. They're USB 2.0 compatible and range in size from 256MB to 2GB. $60-$110. [Oooms Wooden Memory Sticks via [Luxist]

While most treadmills are designed to keep you stationary, the Rollator moves you around when you walk...just like if you were really walking. So what's the point? (plus bonus video after the jump)

The Rollator has three gears, so just like a bike, the Rollator amplifies your power through said gearing. This amplification makes mobility for the senior/disabled/cheap Segway users more efficient without confining them to the inactivity of motorized devices. And the concept works a lot better than this treadmill bike parody we laughed at before. Hopefully.
