So get your clicking-finger ready to learn about more than tablet computers and 3D everything. These technologies are truly revolutionary and inspiring. Sorry, 10.1Ë? Angry Birds.

  • Etymotic EB1 and EB15 Earplugs; they silence loud noise and amplify soft ones. Perfect for Army snipers or your easily-startled granny. http://goo.gl/wPoew
  • BPG Motors; they’ve been working on this a long time, but they are finally near completion. It’s the world’s raddest unicycle. http://goo.gl/4937N

  • T-Pain Microphone; This. Will. Change. Your. Life. Okay, it won’t, but it’s amazing to see that someone still thinks autotune is funny and/or a good idea. http://goo.gl/hrh6Q
