Sony and Disney seem to have this thing going on, where you have Mickey Mouse gracing the Walkman holder with a nice, broad smile on his face. Definitely nothing to go crazy over unless you are a hardcore fan of the mouse. We are guessing that only little kids will find this endearing, although you might want to think twice about giving them a Sony Walkman before that. No idea on pricing as at press time.

While the Apple iPad is not released just yet, but that doesn’t mean some enterprising minds won’t take a stab at blinging out the device. Mervis Diamond Importers are first off the blocks with a diamond covered iPad that is also available for pre-order, sporting a whopping 11.43 carats of diamonds. There is no word on whether the more expensive 3G-enabled model will be available or not. The price for such bling? Well, you will need to fork out $19,999 for this puppy when it is available come this June 1st.

Yes, it’s a chandelier literally made out of tampons. It’s a creation from Guerilla Girls, and it’s obviously supposed to be art. I’m sure it’s supposed to also make some kind of a statement about society today or something along those lines. I somehow doubt that most people will be able to see past the fact that there’s a chandelier made out of tampons in front of them. It was displayed in a museum in Venice.

Alright, so you have a tiny desk area to work with. You’re likely not going to have room for a mega deluxe fountain like your boss, who probably has a real desk. What do you do when you need that zen that comes only from a Japanese fountain?! You just buy this incredibly tiny water garden. Instead of being plugged in to create that gurgling water effect, you just squeeze a small pump yourself. It even comes with tiny stones. You can purchase the kit for $4 through Stupid.com.

Talk about literally bricking your phone – this time not through a botched firmware update, but via thousands of Lego bricks as well as a flatscreen TV in a form factor which measures a pretty impressive 5 feet tall. No mere mortal can come up with this though, as it is the handiwork of renowned Lego artist Nathan Sawaya. We do wonder what kind of monstrous calling plan that this one comes with…

Do you happen to have a wad of cash which you are not too sure what to do with? Well, you could probably buy a very nice house instead of spending all that dough on the Louis Moinet Jurassic Tourbillon which actually comes with some fragments of dinosaur bones. Of course, the price is sky high not because of those ancient, decaying bones, but simply because you get 3.46 cts of diamonds, an 18k white gold case and an 18k gold clasp to go along with it. This nifty timepiece has a 72 hour power reserve and a functional tourbillon.

Dr. Drew Pinsky, the host of Loveline and a celebrity rehabilitation doctor of TV fame, aims to branch out his portfolio to include consumer products field with the introduction of Dr. Drew’s Rx Locker. This gadget is but a simple lockbox that can hold up to a quartet of prescription pill bottles. Meant to keep your medicine secure from prying hands, it also prevents others from snooping around and deducing your ailments from the medication that you pop each day. We don’t think that this $14.95 device is worth it, as you will need to remember another number combination, since a regular locked bathroom cabinet ought to do the trick, don’t you think?

Nothing screams fashionable like a purse made out of Legos. At least that’s apparently what’s on the mind of Studio XXB. They challenged designers to use Lego blocks to create prototypes to be shown off at the BrickWorld Exhibit. This one is created by the designer Kara Ross. Maybe the Lego craze will leak its way into main stream fashion. After all, it’s not like fashion has boundaries or has to make sense. Just look at the 80’s.
