Soda Can MP4 is Not All That Refreshing
As you might have guessed, the NXMP324 from Neux Corp is not what I would call a "serious" product, but those looking for something a little different may find its support for MP3, WMA, WMV, WAV and ASF file formats, built-in USB 2.0 port, FM radio, and 128MB to 4GB capacities mildly interesting. Not me though—I'm still holding out for the MP4 shaped like a bottle of Thunderbird in a paper bag. Pricing info available upon request. [Globalsources via PMP Today]

You don't immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.More »

Programmable Soda Bottle: Have It Your Way
In the name of efficiency (and perhaps novelty), Massachusetts company Ipifini created a programmable soft drink bottle, containing a base flavor and additional flavor buttons around the top that you push to inject that certain favorite flavor of yours into the mix. For instance, it could be used for cola drinks, where you can just drink the basic cola or push a cherry or vanilla button to add those flavors if that's your preference. More »

Windows Vista Soft Drink
Microsoft commissioned special-edition cans of the Lemon-Lime Talking Rain sparkling water for their employees, complete with Vista logo and an intranet link for them to find out more information about Vista. Guess Microsoft needs to hype up the energy internally as well, since they're adding these to the stock of other free sodas employees drink. More »
