Would you pay $1,099 for a Bluetooth speaker that keeps your beer cold?
One of Kickstarter's biggest successes was Coolest Cooler, a beer cooler and Bluetooth speaker that, inexplicably, raised more than $13 million in funding. Presumably it was that eye-watering figure that prompted Thomas & Darden to try and produce the Kube, which aims to outdo its rival in every way. Firstly, there's capacity enough to hold two cases of beer or six bottles of Champagne; a Bluetooth range of 50 feet; and sound that could be heard above the general cacophony of a CES trade show floor. That, however, is not the most eye-popping thing about this massive device; it's the price. If the headline hasn't given it away already, Kube will set you back $1,099.
