BookFob eBook Keychain
Numly's BookFob keychain is...wait for it...a keychain fob that holds eBooks. It's essentially a memory stick with built-in e-reader software, and a whole host of copyright protection safeguards to stop pirated copies of Treasure Island and Heidi that all the cool kids are apparently swapping peer-to-peer these days.
If you're a voracious reader like I am, this may not be a bad way to take your books with you on holiday...so long as you have a PC running WIndows with you as well. Sorry Mac and Linux folks...you're still stuck carrying books about, I'm afraid.
