Wooden Creative Zen Stone
Captain Ødegård created this Creative Zen Stone out of pine, although he seems to have accidentally scaled up the dimensions to a huge 8.25" x 5.5" x 2". Check out a video of it in use after the jump.

Michael Leung, some designer, made this USB "Mass Storage Stone," which holds 4GB of flash memory inside a rock. It started as a prototype in 2005, and it's "in development" now to become a real product. Whether that will actually happen is anyone's guess, but who wouldn't want to carry around storage that you can kill someone with? [Studio Leung via Swiss Miss via Geek Sugar]

Quick-Read Creative Zen Stone Review and Gallery (Verdict: Worth At Least Half a Shuffle)
When the $39.99 Zen Stone was first unearthed, there was some discussion as to whether it was larger or smaller than a $79 iPod shuffle. As you'll be able to see in the gallery after the jump, it's noticeably larger than the shuffle, and that's without the $9.99 add-on clip. However, you should also be able to tell that it's a non-issue. The Zen Stone rests tiny and almost weightless in the palm of my hand, and I'm far from NBA material. Until the flash memory and processor are in the earbuds and you wear the whole thing like some freaky necklace, the size/weight concern is pretty much moot. More »
video unboxing
Still curious about Creative's new Zen Stone player? The folks at GenerationMP3 put the tiny player behind the camera for a thorough unboxing/review. It looks a little chunky when they compare it to the nano (although its real competition is the shuffle, which it also beats in size). Still, $39 for a 1GB player ain't bad, although personally I refuse to buy an MP3 player without a screen. PS: You might wanna lower the volume and skip the piano soundtrack. More »

Neko Stone Mouse: Flintstones Peripheral
Neko, a design studio out of Russia, created/dug up this stone mouse. MAKE believes the stone pieces were cut and then glued to a shell, which while probably the case, disappoints our fantasy of using the mouse while munching a pterodactyl wing. More »
