iPot: Not Made by Apple, But Still Rad. . . You Like?

August 25, 2008

I wonder if Steve Jobs loves that people keep appending an "i" to their products in an Apple-like fashion, or if he thinks they're stealing his thunder. Either way, you put an i in front of a simple word, and you suddenly have an attention-grabbing product name.

At least the latest perpetrator of this iCrime, the iPot, is actually pretty useful and attractive, not unlike Apple products in general, so it's not an offhand association. As a little desk lamp, the iPot provides an LED light in a glowing white pod, charges on a USB cord, and is affordable: just $19. Light it up! Do you like it?

It's cute - I might get one for lighting my office or my vanity.

It'll be even cooler if it actually had a purpose. Like, I seen one that told you how your stocks were doing. It'll flash different colors, reflecting on your success. It was pretty damn cool.
