Honorable mention: Think food is art? How about technology? Well, SolidAlliance has created an entire line of SushiDisk flash drives that resemble everything from sashimi to a California roll. The flash drives cost from $99 to $269, but they come with only 128MB to 1GB of memory. Still, there's nothing like a piece of raw tuna hanging from your USB port to draw attention.

Coolest tech toy: Spy video car

Remote-controlled toy cars have been around for decades, but none like this one. The Wild Planet Spy Video Car's on-car video camera and head-mounted LCD viewer let you see the action from the car's point of view. You don't even need to see the car to control it -- you can navigate with the camera, as shown in the car's TV ad.

The car is quiet, so you can sneak up on people and spy on them. Incredibly, it has infrared night vision, which doesn't emit any visible light to tip off your victim. Adjust the camera's angle to look up, straight ahead or anywhere you like. The light, handheld remote-control unit controls the car from up to 75 feet away.
