We've all seen the adverts for useless USB port gimmicks. Lava lamps, missile launchers, fish tanks...
But this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI-pct3zy18&eurl=) has to be the funniest! :D

You my friend have just brought a smile to my morning, and im miserable right now (couldn't sleep). Thank you very much.
It would be even better... if it was also a flash drive.
:)
Edit: I would plus rep for brightening my day but apparently i need to rep some other people first.

This (http://www.ubergizmo.com/15/archives/2006/12/usb_dog_humps_pc.html) article says:
"The USB Humping Dog would've been a much more useful device if it came with some sort of built-in memory"
But, this (http://ohgizmo.com/2006/12/13/usb-humping-dog-flash-drive/) one says:
"It’s simply a USB drive, in the shape of a dog, that... "
Although sadly, I suspect it isn't.
Edit: as confirmed by this ebay seller (http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-POWERED-HUMPING-DOG-BROWN-BRAND-NEW_W0QQitemZ150086713571QQihZ005QQcategoryZ31534Q QssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item1500 86713571)
Get yours now!
Nice find. Funny stuff. It looks like it could be modded to take the guts of a memory stick. But it would get annoying after a minute. That motor is to loud.

Yeah the motor is pretty loud. I wouldn't be able to keep it plugged in long enough to transfer any data. It could be a fun little gag to slip on peoples laptops at the office though.

What a useless invention. If you plan to get one, do us all a favor, dont. Send that $5 to unicef to feed a starving child.

From the Ebay Seller:
There is NO built-in memory in this device, The only function it has is to get off with your PC.
:p
