Same Amor de Madre invented a special cutting board. It’s called Incanale, and what it basically does is pretty obvious, especially to those of you who love cooking. Who has badmouthed after chopped vegetables drop anywhere but the targeted bowl? huh? very useful invention!

Vauni Globe – This is more than just a fireplace. It’s like a sculpture even when unlit.  Just don’t sit in it when it is lit.

Next, pre-chewed pencils from Concentrate. Concentrate is a British studio that design products specifically for school kids. Don’t chew the pencil, it is pre-chewed, just get down to some thinking and who knows what you might come up with.

Funny chair-carpet and cups with cookies as lids from Florence Doleac. All sweet must-haves.

These original laughing cups were created by Psyho studio. Laugh as you enjoy a cup of tea.

And these are not cups, but rather books. Which look like cups. Japanese duet Eri Akutsu and Koji Shimizu are to be credited for these.

Squeeze thy lemon! This is what Vincon and Spanish company Lekue tell us. Just place the lemon into this silicone gadget and press. Very comfortable.

And another thing which is not what it seems – not a bulb, but a juice bottle. 100% fresh pomegranate juice bottle was best of the show at Pentawards 2008, design packaging awards.

The GeForce 9600M GT delivers faster discrete graphics performance to high-end 3D games and pro applications. Apple’s famous multi-touch also has the new feeling – now the entire glass trackpad is a button, which is clickable everywhere.

While Apple continues to amaze its users, other companies, need to keep pace, thus coming up with interesting concepts of cooperation. OLO Computer is said to produce for now a concept laptop, which uses iPhone as its CPU, as well as a touchpad. Looks pretty interesting, and perhaps others will end up with this idea too:
