Hasta La Gadget!

 BlackBerry is mostly discussed in terms of its slow decline in the global smartphone market, which it once pioneered. But it acquired QNX in 2010, and that would provide the basis not only for its BlackBerry 10 smartphone operating system, but also for the platform underlying a huge percentage of in-car infotainment systems. BlackBerry envisioned QNX extending to a still-wider range of… Read More

Subterranean captains’ chairs, rounded counters for flight monitoring, perfect pastels in the crew’s uniforms: Midcentury Herman Miller and Eames furnishings look awesome on the Starship Enterprise. Take a minute to check out these throwback posters and you’ll be daydreaming of Captain Kirk shaking you an out-of-this-world gin martini. [MattWileyArt via Retroist]

Forget Frisbee. That is so last century. What you need in a flying disc is a starship. Like the U.S.S. Enterprise. That’s totally doable right? Hell yes. ThinkGeek has this Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise Flying Disc that is totally aerodynamic despite the Enterprise body and those nacelles being attached to the saucer section.

Seemingly defying physics, you just throw the saucer section and the rest of the ship follows. Then your friend catches it. Sadly, it is not warp capable.

Ok fine. April Fools! But you know, it wouldn’t take much to make this a reality. I hope you ThinkGeek guys are working on this one for real. Around the clock please. I would like a flying Klingon Bird of Prey that I can throw and simulate battles with.

Holy Spock! Check out these awesome starship Enterprise necklaces. I’m not a necklace wearing guy, but I want one of these. They just look so cool. Who knew that Star Trek ships looked so good with sparkly things on them?

Put one in orbit around your neck thanks to Paul Michael Design. He has outdone himself this time. Any trekkie would love to wear one of these under their Starfleet tunic.

Prices start at $290(USD) for the small sterling silver version with CZ and manufactured rubies, but it’s also available in 14K gold in white, yellow or black rhodium with real diamonds and rubies starting at $995. Now to start saving my money. So many cool geek things to buy, there is never enough money. Do you think they take Federation credits?

Your desk, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the mini starship Enterprise. This Enterprise is the perfect size to display anywhere and it even lights up.

The tiny starship measures just 5″ x 2″ x 2.5″ while on the stand. This awesome mini ship comes with a mini book telling you all about the Enterprise too. You will have to provide the phaser noises yourself though, as you imitate Scotty yelling, “I’m giving you all she’s got Captain!”

The mini Enterprise is perfect for your cubicle or office. It’s only $12.95(USD) from ThinkGeek. It makes a cool little night light too. I would hang it from the ceiling.
