Released the same day as the LG Chocolate phone, SanDisk’s 2GB microSD cards let you fit twice as many Cure albums compared to the old 1GB cards.

Unfortunately for most of the country, these 2GB cards are going to be sold exclusively at Verizon Wireless stores for the next 60 days. That means you’re not going to be able to hop online and grab one from NewEgg or Amazon.

It’s made by Ross McBride, who is looking for a producer to make and sell this clock.

New Standard Keyboard NSK535S: It Doesn’t Need No Stinking QWERTY

Here’s a keyboard that promises to set a “New Standard for User-Friendliness” by getting rid of QWERTY, and replacing it with this thing called “Alphabetical Order.” Seriously, if you’re going to make it sound like you’re reinventing the way we type, you have to be more clever than putting things in the order they came in.
