Solid Alliance celebrates with four-port USB cake

We've already seen Sony and Nintendo (er, an avid fanboy) get down with their bad selves and celebrate with cakes that represent their respective milestones, but Solid Alliance is out to make sure no one gets shunned from the festivities. That's right kids, even the USB obsessed can find a reason to party down, as the limited edition four-port USB cake enables you to connect up a variety of warming gizmos to keep your person toasty while surfing through the cold, blustery days that lie ahead. Additionally, the cake comes with four strawberry flash drives, each of which pack a full gigabyte of delicious storage space. Better hurry, though -- reservations are only being accepted through December 3rd, and you can expect the cake and all of its trimmings to run you a staggering ¥50,000 ($453).

That cake is made of virgin.

[Luis @ Nov 20th 2007 5:07PM]

But I thought the cake was a lie.

[streetstealth @ Nov 21st 2007 12:59AM]

Fun fact: This cake is now more expensive than all the cakes in [subject's home town] combined!

They should have printed "Eat Me" on it.

Cracked tooth lawsuits here we come!

How about engadget celebrate that it's........umm......tuesday the 20th November by dropping the gigantic Apple ad which is eating up my memory resources???

[thethirdmoose @ Nov 20th 2007 5:45PM]

This would be a great gag gift if the price was in cents, not dollars

[browner @ Nov 21st 2007 1:09PM]

a great gift? even as a joke this tacky rubbish wouldn't go down well with me. who wastes their money on this crap?

[Paul @ Nov 20th 2007 5:55PM]

For real, that is the only ad I have seen all day on this site, how much do you get paid by apple for something like that?

[Ellianth @ Nov 20th 2007 6:06PM]

they aren't getting paid. Engadget is one of the departments that make up apple. See there's accounting, design, engadget, r&d.. etc. :P


But seriously. Get rid of the 'effin ad. Your readers find it annoying!

Clearly Nintendo fanboys pwn Sony fanboys.

[HyperHacker @ Nov 20th 2007 6:56PM]

So are you a Nintendo fanboy fanboy?

[Dan @ Nov 20th 2007 6:48PM]

I like the cake and strawberries. I hope somebody will straighten this out so it can get sold right.
$40 is too much.

[browner @ Nov 21st 2007 1:08PM]

motherfucker that is one ugly piece of shit. who buys this tack?

[HyperHacker @ Nov 20th 2007 6:57PM]

1GB flash drives cost $10 at Future Shop. What is so special about this cake that makes it worth $413?

[steve @ Nov 20th 2007 7:16PM]

I might have considered it if it were the portal cake. Anything else is just not worth it.

[thechosen1 @ Nov 20th 2007 7:54PM]

GO Portal cake!

Goddammit guys... how long is it going to take you to get rid of that huge apple ad.
I have already had to filter engadget ads on 2 computers via adblock now !!

[wrabbit @ Nov 21st 2007 9:55AM]

What apple ad is everybody talking about?? o_O

Firefox + AdBlock + AdBlock Filterset.G = no ads :D

[Jason @ Nov 21st 2007 10:23AM]

[blackfeather @ Nov 21st 2007 11:57AM]
