It makes me smile to know that a USB device can look like almost anything. The best thing about these cufflinks is the fact that one is a USB storage device, and the other is a WiFi hotspot adapter.

Let’s say you’re at a wedding and the wireless router kicks the bucket. Just hook a laptop directly into the cable modem and then stick the Wi-Fi cufflink into one of the laptop’s USB ports. In no time at all, you’ve got yourself a new wireless hotspot that all the guests can use to surf the web on their Wi-Fi-enabled devices. This sounds like a boring wedding, but you just made it exponentially more interesting by being the guest with the Wi-Fi cufflinks, so there’s that.

As someone who strives to be geeky and stylish at the same time, these cufflinks would be welcome in my wardrobe.  Maybe I should get a shirt that actually uses cufflinks first, though...

You'll find these little beauties at Brookstone.  Price: $250 (a.k.a. ridiculous)
