There are many flash drives out there. There’s one for every lifestyle, desire or need. I think they’ve just about tapped the creativity of flash drives however ZaNa Design is not giving up and they have some hand-made ones they’re pushing. They come in 1GB and 2GB versions, which I have to say is keeping it low compared to some of the more recent ones I’ve seen, but the selling point is the material they’re made of. Each device is made from exotic “Merbau” wood in conjunction with either amber or striped flint stones. They cost about $65 a piece. I can’t help but think, why would you make something to store your precious data that’s made from wood and flint? Isn’t that a fire hazard?

Stash it under the belly of the plane for an Indiana-Jones-style getaway once you hit the landing strip, of course. The good folks at MotoPod will mod your light aircraft with one of their aerodynamic moto-carriers, and give you a customized folding motorcycle to cram inside of it for around $10k. Sure it'll shave a few knots off of your cruising speed, but when you mount up with a hot blonde (or tiny Asian sidekick) and ride off on your foldable mini-Hog, you'll know you made the right choice. And judging from the demo video, the MotoPOD looks like it could also serve as an effective canoe, nicely rounding out the land-sea-air transportation trifecta for which every adventuring anthropologist strives.

Now all it needs is a Tumbler-like mechanism to instantly eject the moto. [MotoPod via Oh Gizmo]
