Tiny Screen, Big Savings
Dealzmodo: Sony's XEL-1 OLED TV In Sam's Club Bargain Bin For $1,748
Yeah, that's almost $800 under Sony Style's price. And yeah, it's still an 11-inch screen. But one you'll want to lick, it's so saturated and thin. If you were already eyeing an XEL-1 for the bathroom I'm guessing the $800 isn't a huge issue, but as Taco Bell says, "why pay more?" No word on where this shot is from, so call your Club before heading out. Also good to know you can apparently pick up an eye exam at the same location, once the colors burn into your retinas.

Super Talent 8GB Flash Drive is World's Smallest
The chaps at Super Talent are not only incredibly modest, talented and super, but they must also be fantastically tiny to have put together the world's smallest 8GB flash drive. (Flawless logic, I'm sure you'll agree.) Retailing at $35, the price is pretty reasonable, at least until you drop it into your chest hair and lose it forever. More »

Using a retro brick phone doesn't have to be an exercise in giving up modern features as long as you're using the Mini Mob. Not only does it look like Zack's Kelly Kapowski booty call gadget, it's got an MP3 player, a camera, GSM compatibility and a slot for headphones. And best of all, it's only four inches tall, meaning you can fit this into your pocket without looking like you have elephantitis. Price? $330. Warning: even though the product page says you'll be "the original gangster", chances are you will not. [GadgetsArcade via Wired]

Tiny Electric Guitar Has Normal-Sized Frets
Behold the smallest electric guitar in the world. Well, it's called the "smallest precision electric guitar available," because even though its body is just 1/6 the size of a normal instrument, its fretboard is the same size as an ordinary guitar. This is not a toy; it has a couple of pickups that can give you your choice of humbucking or single coil sound, and tuning machine heads that look pretty solid. The makers even tried to mimic the cellular structure of wood with its plastic body, injected with air bubbles in an attempt to give it more resonance despite its diminutive stature. Plus, holding his guitar will make you look really, really big. If that's important to you, it'll cost you $799.95. Kinda reminds us of that little Martin Backpacker.

While I cannot definitively confirm that the CAM-007 is the world's smallest commercial camcorder spycam (see exhibit A and exhibit B), the self-contained device does clock in at a minuscule 0.3"x0.9"x0.5" and it boasts a fairly impressive feature set that includes both audio and video recording, MPEG-4 3 GP at 15fps, a built-in rechargeable lithium ion battery that recharges via USB (up to 2 hours of recording), and Micro SD up to 2GB with room for approx. 19 hours of video on a 1GB card. Available for $349. [Product Page]

tiny chopper
Japanese toy giant Tomy says it's about to roll out the next generation in tiny copters, and it's calling this one the Heli-Q. The company says this is the world's smallest radio controlled toy helicopter, but other than its smaller size, its specs seem similar to those of Picco-Z Styrofoam helicopters we've flown before. The Picco-Z took a 20-minute charge of its battery to give us an eight-minute flight, but Tomy conservatively says this Heli-Q will fly for five minutes on each charge.

tiny games
You'd better hope your fingers are small if you want to play these positively minuscule table games from Japan. They're shrunken down to palm size, letting you play hockey, Foosball or air hockey wherever you go. There are even fold-away legs to make them easier to carry around. Check out the air hockey game, where you turn on a switch and a battery-operated fan keeps that tiny puck slightly elevated over the table's surface, just like the real thing. Each air hockey, hockey and Foosball mini-table game is $12.85. [Rakuten, via Like Cool]

Tessera's Wafer-size Camera Will Make Cameraphones Slimmer and Cheaper
Your cameraphone is about to shed some weight thanks to the folks at Tessera. They've created a minuscule camera that's half the size of the cameras used in today's mobiles. Dubbed the OptiML WLC, the new cam can even do auto focus and features optical zoom without any moving parts. No word on what gadgets will feature the new tech, but anything that makes them thinner is welcome in our book. More »

Epoq MP4 player: Size of a Matchbox, Memory of a Goldfish
This MP4 player from Epoq is the same size as a book of matches. Available in either white or chrome and 1GB or 2GB versions, there's a miniSD Memory Card slot to give you up to 4GB memory space. It's quite cute—the buttons down the side are very retro—but it's too small for my liking. More »

Absurdly Small Cellphone from Xun Chi
We've shown you tiny phones before, but this is getting ridiculous: the Xun Chi 138 is scarcely larger than an AA battery and it weighs just two ounces. Too small to even dial, it requires you to use a stylus on a touchscreen and plug in a headset to talk and listen. More »

Sony Shrinks USB Drives
When it comes to storage, the tinier the better, and Sony jumps into the fray with its wee Micro Vault Tiny USB 2.0 drives that are just 1.45cm x 3cm x 2.7mm. About half the size of conventional USB key drives, they're available in capacities of 256MB, 512 MB, 1GB and 2GB. They'll first find homes in Korea, and are certain to find their way to US shores before too long. More »
