This is just too good to not mention here...

It's a ball, with a light in it, which changes colour according to data it receives from the internet via your wireless network. You can map the colours to show you:

• Weather predications from weather-prediciton websites (rather than look out the window)
  
• Share indices like the Dow Jones or FTSE 100 (for when you have billions of dollars at risk and need some finely-tuned warnings of another Black Tuesday)
  
• When that font of wit and urbane intelligensia that is Flyguy's blog has been updated (just in case you're really bored one day)
  
• The latest rating by BigAndiD's in Halo2 (like you need to ask)
  
• When MadJock has written about his next "early adopter" purchase
  

... and all other sorts of interesting information...
