The "iTable"?

The iPad not big enough for you?  How would a 58 inch multitouch surface suit you?  It hooks up to your iPhone through a 30-pin dock connector.  Just be careful where you put that cup of coffee down!  Is this one of the first steps in PCs becoming handheld devices and screens becoming even more massive?

Does it "wow" you?

Mighty Strange Bread

I thought this was a 3D image, but turns out it's a sculpture ...in bread!  I love the concept of the bread attacking the knife.  What do you think? Does it "wow" you?

Designer Suhyun Kim has created a device attached to a scanner that allows visually impaired people to scan an image or text and convert to Braille in very little time.  The scanner can also be attached to their PC and the device used to view digital photos and read webpages.  While there is already software available that converts visuals into sound, hopefully this will still improve the lives of many people.

Some peoples' feet smell of cheese...

At the same time I discovered the "glove shoes", I also bumped into these.  What would you think if you noticed someone wearing them?  Do they "wow" you?

FiveFingered Shoes?

A company called Vibram makes shoes with individual spaces for each of your toes.  They're called "FiveFingers" or "glove shoes".  They strike me as being rather cheerful.  What do you think?

B-Iron 725 (Transparent)

Today's "wow" is a "wow" of the obvious. In hindsight irons don't have that much inside them, so why not create a transparent iron so that you can see when you're ironing in creases?  The soleplate is made of tempered glass with heat conduction working via a network of electro-thermal wires.  Hats off to designers Dong-Seok Lee & Ji-Hyung Jung.

This is Brian Weitz.  Imagine glancing at him while you were going about your day-to-day business.  I bet he'd get a second look!  But is it a good "wow" or a bad "wow?

The Adam & Eve Hotel

The Adam & Eve Hotel, Antalya, Turkey looks fantastic, even though there isn't a curve in sight.  The different coloured windows bring life to what otherwise would bear significant resemblance to a multi-storey carpark.

Does it "wow" you?  What other drab buildings/objects could be improved by adding colour?
