These guys have a *LONG* way to go before they catch up to Apple design wise. But I think I would buy one in a second....

teddy_ruk.bin?
i NEED to get one of those
so the people who sit near me in computer class will back away a little bit
and its sooooooo cute
lol
Just purchased one, it totally rocks, im going to bring it to tech class. (O-Y-0)
Where did you buy the USB bear from? I don't see any site that actually sells it.
I seriously need one of those too because they are cute...and it looks funny when it is pluged into the computer like that
rowan atkinson is back in buisness with Mr Bean !!!
I think it's kind of mean, that the teddys shirt says "I love you"
I want a baboon one, where the ass lights up red when there is data transfer.
Is it wrong that for the first time ever I want a USB drive, and I want THAT one. I mean, the bear sticking into the computer just looks hilarious!
That's hilarious, and disturbing at the same time! I like it! Where can I get me one of these?
Thank god the USB drive sticks out on the top instead of on the bottom~ LOL :P
The shirt says, "I love you," in spanish.
Actually, it says "I want you".
Think of the possiblities, mix and match heads...
"AAAHH!! YOU KILLED TEDDY!!" [runs away crying]
I'd buy one! ^_^
OLD!

That is just so wrong on so, so many levels...
That is amazing!!

That is utterly brilliant! Where can I get one!?
actually Billy Kincaid.
Quiero means "want". However when used in the "Yo te quiero" sense it means i love you.
I suppose you could use it either way. Te Amo is a little more accurate.
TOOO good...where did u guys purchase this??? i want one too!!!
Daddy! Daddy! Why's teady sticking his head into the computer? Can I do it to?!
where can I get one?
Is there a panda version yet? :P
No son, the computer IS Teddy's head!
We serve HIM now.
This is great, want one!
lol. well, you can be sure that it's my next art project...hmmm I have the perfect stuffed toy in mind, it was a Valentine's day gift...
Its sick!!! I want one too! Where do I get one? Please tell me where.
LOL I almost choked on my food while I was reading this. I want one just to give it to my little cousin!
I want one! Where do I buy one?!!?!?!?!?
this is obviously a DIY thing, and it doesnt look that hard, id say:
1)take out some stuffing from the head and body after having decapitated your unsuspecting son's teddy bear
2)stuff both ends (cap and actual key) into the head and body of the mutilated bear, maybe with some glue on it
3) see if it fits. if not...well too bad...the teddy will look like nearly-headless nick
Sure does block a lot of other ports on the computer.
Good thing this one has 4 USB ports in the front.
How can someone hate teddy bears so much that they would create this dastardly device?
lol that some funny shit
Hi from Sapin. Actually I'm the barbarian who choped the bear's head. I'm not good speking english, so... well you'll see many faults :(
This bear was a gift for my girldfriend, she lend me her 256Mb USB pen-drive and I bought the teddy bear. The result was "that thing" in the pictures.
I think that if you want one like that, you must do it yourself, but if someone is interested in making money, please, contact me ;)
this is the best, i want one so i can give to one of unsuspecting female friends
Lol! I needed a good laugh! :D
OMG lol, ideal way, to tell ur GF to use it for Data transportation, and getting her to plug it into her PC, while it contains a Trojan Horse, so that then u can know if she is cheating on you ! =D

I prefer apple design
"Te quiero"= "I love you". Is the real meaning of the phrase or "I want you" if said with a sexual desire tone.
"Te amo"= "I love you" with romantic tone.
One word can mean two or more feelings/meanings.
Back to the poor teddy bear subject; That's just disturbing. Teddy bears should be loved, not beheaded and plug into a USB with his ass to the air. where his his pride?!
Hehe I prefer the apple design to, I think its safe to say that "DS" does as well.
Same here.

With these instructions one can build similar devices easily:

I, for one, ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bloody brilliant, Sergio. I laughed my teddy bears arse off :)
I am so making one of these for myself now :)
Froogle has some!

That thing is just too awesome.
So cool. I want one of those bears.
Good for spies, I suppose. Or drugrunners. The cops aren't likely to take it
down to HQ for examination with the hard drive.
one for me..please))))
...no one is talking about Apple, and they aren't superior in design to this teddybear. Blah Blah Blah.
Its an fing teddybear that must have its head removed to insert the USB into the computer! How fantastic is that! Fool criminals from taking your precious flash drive! Wow your friends with your creativity! Make a friend to cuddle with at night who can assist you in more ways than one!
PREVED, Krasaffchegi! Medved rulit!
brilliant.
evil geniusness.
humour.
need I say more?
That's pretty grisly.
Where's the penguin one?
omg, the best memory stick EVER.
Para que sepa.. (So that you know), "Te Quiero" has a coouple of different meanings. Look at what Perrey Z posted. That is the most accurate.
I also like the Baboon comment. That would be a hoot!
I'm going to get a Kenny doll and make one...
ROFL!
I want one!!! :D
This is horrific!
lmao! I want to make one of these!
hmm.. not really a "thumb drive" is it?
wouldn't the weight of the bears body mess up your usb drive?
even better.. instead of the ass lighting up when there's data transfer....
have the arms/legs flail around when there's data transfer...
spontaneous twitching.
yeah baby, I see one helluva xmas '06 stocking stuffer!
This would look cool on a mac mini because the mac mini would become the head, I am going to make one, shouldn't be extremely difficult.
OK - WHERE can we buy one? Does anyone actually have a link to a website for this? I have a sick colleague at work that would get a huge kick out of this!
Breaking news: english and spanish are two different languages and you can't always translate precisely across.
"Te quiero" means I Love You, but It is most equivalent to I Luv You.
"Te amo" means I Love You also, but in a deeper and more profound way.
De nalgas.
i would be more than willing to buy one. My girlfriend starts college at the end of the summer, and I think this would be the perfect going away gift. Someone email me joe6america9@yahoo.com if they would be willing to make one or show me where to buy one.

Everytime i watch this...i always laugh...mommy the poor teddy!!
How about putting leather chaps on it and making it a usb hub...
Reminds me of this Spongebob thumbdrive mod... it looks like he is getting frisky with the USB port. :)

OMFG I want one of those! They are so cute, especially with it's ass in the air! :D
Im so awesome?
You should see where the headphone jack plug goes!
Beautifully twisted.
Is there anything similar that would fit into my laptop's limited space?
Image has broken link, see http://www.therawfeed.com/2006/06/worst-usb-gadget-yet-decapitated-teddy.html
Actually, it DOES say, "I LOVE YOU"....aww..
it's so funny.
I have to make one.... :)
How about a wireless teddy bear, with glowing LEDs for eyes giving link status?
I can see this now my hands are full, so i need to use my mouth to open the cap. Lol and little children are around me. Lol that will be scary :-).
I WANT ONE OF THOSEEEEEEEE WHERE CAN YA GET EM? ITS SOO CUTE
You should motorize the arms and legs to make them twitch (move) every time a read or write occurs.
I wonder if I can manufacture a little bitty furry teddy bear with the USB plug sticking out of its crotch without violating their patent?
Ayyy Que BoNiTo0o0o!
=o)
Crumbs! For god's sake, please don't make a daisychained version! ;-)
lol!!!! i want one dammit!
I really need to get one of these for the Security Guys at work! Or maybe HR either group would be in stiches! Then they would come looking for me!
What about having a full external hard drive within a larger teddy and having his head (or eye or scalp...) removeable so you could attatch the usb cable?
Um, is it just me, or is that the wrong side of the USB cable for the shown use? That seems to be the device end. The cap side is the right size, but the, er, neck(?) side is wrong, isn't it?
i want one and then ill go use it at the library in the little kids section and decapitate a bear and shove him in the computer. i can already see the looks on their faces. lol
So, in order to get this, it has to be self-made?
