This one may tickle your fancy... but I don't know if this device had made it to market but it certainly came thru the patent process...

I would probably design it differently.

Vibrator with Bluetooth receptor
Application (iPhone/Androïd/whatever) to scan SMS reception

On reception of a specifically formatted message, activation of the Bluetooth link

I have several of those Bottle Top things. Over here, they're called Snap Caps.

I found them to be immensely useful, as I have a tendency to knock over things on my desk. Saved blow drying a lot of paperwork that way.

When you have to handwrite documentation, which is often following or followed by someone else's handwritten documentation, you can't just "print out a new copy."

He's made up.

I could never use those. I'm obsessive enough that I'd have to wash the can tops first (don't drink from cans most of the time), and that's just an added step...I'm lazy.

Grav I saw some gorgeous hats today.
My acquisitive little fingers fingered them, and their price tags, seeking to justify a purchase...

But I behaved.
I do not need a hat.
I have a hat.
I wear it about five times a year and even than have to take it off if I'm walking as my head gets too hot.
The hat I have, I bought via the internet and have never seen anyone else wearing. Even if I could afford and justify one of the hats I saw today, I would see them on much younger, slimmer girls and feel ashamed.

So.

I'll leave the R2D2 hat and just take the chap underneath.
I don't already have one of those.

Sort of.... with Ms. Pac Man and some other recreations.

Is that glatt under that hat?

It's the glatt in the hat.
By Dr. Suess.

I did wonder.
He's handsome and pointy enough to be Glatt.
But I worried at the last second it he might be Griff, so I didn't comment.
