We'll be straight with you: there's no single expression of bad-assery more potent in the polyhedral kingdom of nerdistan than the USB Skull Ring. Brought to you by Solid Alliance, the 2GB USB drive feels right at home transferring files to your PC or at the end of a fist, deftly buried into the gut of a Moradin dwarf. Your choice for $145, no seriously. One more hair-free shot after the break.
Who knew Encino Man had a thing for usb rings? Thats one hairy hand.
Turn the picture upside-down and all four rings have afros!
wow, clean nails ... i think that's a first for engadget ...
I don't see a problem with that hand. It looks perfectly normal to me.
Unless it's a woman's hand. Then it's kinda hideous.
Doesn't look like a normal human hand to me, hairy all over the back and fingers that even compensation for perspective seem oddly short.
Get your hand off me you damn dirty ape!
Why did they get a monkey to model them? Were humans too ashamed?
It's George the Animal Steel's arm.

That is one hairy hand model, and considering he's wearing these, his palms are probably just as hairy.
Hairiness aside, one could go all out and get fully 20GB geeked out.
or 22GB if you're lucky.
Don't you mean _un_lucky?
The best thing about these is that at least you can use it as a knuckle duster to defend yourself against all the people that are going to want to beat you up for wearing something like this.
At least he had some pride and brushed his hair before the shoot.
A fool and his money...Kaching! Thank you, come again!
Did you just call a dwarf a drawf?
Crapgadget!
Unfortunatly my inventory is full, so I have no use for these. I might be more tempted if they gave some stats.
Mmmmm....

lol ;]
just admit it ricker, that's your hand isnt it?
Hmmm... sexy asian models showing geek gadgetry or hairy knuckles showing RPG ware...
Verdict: I'll take the asian girls...
It's gonna be a tad uncomfortable to use, what with having your pelvis jammed up against your PC, don't you think?
Oh, wait, it's NOT a c**k-ring then.
Just a load of cock in the shape of a ring!
WOOO!
Low Ranked Again!
Stop disssing the hairy dude! He's obviously a barbarian, he cant help it. Sheesh
Can people stop insulting my hand please. I know they are hairy but you know what they say gives you hairy palms.
Testosterone
More tea Vicar?
For $145 I'd want them to be made from the skulls of some minuscule prehistoric race.
This thread is on a roll, every comment has been hilarious so far. Except mine.
Yours was funny too :)
A Ricker Roll?
You think that's hairy? Please. I think my mom had more hair than that!
So easy a caveman can use it!
rotflmao nice
Good to see that the rings are still wearable by victims of woodchipping accidents.
Nothing instills fear in your enemies like a a pinkish nubbie on your hand. Hairy or not.
That's 8 hairy gigs of in your face ass kickin!
Looks like Spike's "engagement" ring to Buffy in the episode where a spell made them (temporarily) fall in love. ;-)
Gorilla hand not included.
