Now this is the ultimate in geek gadgets. Translated, that means I want one.
From the ThinkGeek newsletter:
You’ve got a USB hub for your thumbdrive, an external hard-drive, a media-card reader, and an external optical drive, and all these devices require cabling
and power supplies… we call that a clusterfark. What if there was an all-in-one device that can read any kind of media you threw at it? Well, holy megastorage,
Batman, there is! It’s the fantastic hunk of electronics known as the Media Tank. The Media Tank is a rock-solid enclosure for any kind of optical drive
and hard drive you want to cram into it. It even has ports on the face for just about any memory card or USB thumb drive you’ve got. It’s designed to be
portable, plugging into your PC’s USB slot, making practically every kind of storage you have instantly available. This is truly the most useful thing
you’ll have on your desk for some time. Everybody at ThinkGeek World Headquarters wants one, so better grab yours before we do!
