USB ghost detector
Who ya gonna call? SolidAlliance! The funniest thing about this device is that it's not an April Fool's joke.
Japanese company SolidAlliance (who brought us such prior goodness as the
USB duck drives and
USB sushi is selling a portable ghost detecting USB
device called GhostRadar, which beeps and flashes red lights in
response to "unusual magnetic waves" — meaning it will let you know when you're in the presence of those beyond the
grave. We're not sure exactly how they figured out which frequencies that ghosts transmit on, and company VP Yuichiro
Saito is tight-lipped about the inner workings of this device. Some of the inner workings will be more familiar to us,
as the GhostRadar is otherwise known as a flash drive offering between 128 and 512MB of storage. There ya go — store
your data and keep it safe from the ghoulies to boot, Ghostbusters.

If i have something like that and in the middle of the night it starts flashing all red, i'll have the sh1ts for sure!
If there is a ghost watching over my back as i finish a late project, i don't think I'd ever want to know it's there!
Then again, If you believe in ghosts...
