USB-Powered Office Cannon

We stopped covering offbeat USB devices some time ago, but this one was worth a closer look. To those trapped in office hellfire, it’s time to spring for some serious firepower and mount a USB-powered cannon on your desktop.

Operated by your PC’s arrow keys, the USB cannon has a range of 10 feet and fires one of three foam missles when you press the spacebar. At $34.95, it’s not cheap, but blasting the new guy in the the cube a row over is often priceless.

    Take a pass. I bought the laser-guided version and in a word? Suck. What a great idea. What a lame implementation. This thing can’t shoot a foam dart three feet with a tailwind.
