Silly and idotic uses for USB computer connections abound. I have written in the past about such mindless diversions of a person's time and money, items such as the USB aromatherapy diffuser and the all important USB beverage warmer. But at least these items had a purpose...
The new USB Punch Head is a device that claims to help you release some of that ugly stress that is clogging your life, but in truth it is just plain ugly. Punching the little plastic head sends a signal to the computer which in turn lets out a shreek of pain and distorts a photo of your choice. The web site includes a video demo and shots of Bin Laden and Bush as examples. All in all a complete (and ugly) waste of time. Still, you have to give the company credit, it is definately a "unique," little gadget.
