Protect Your PC with the USB Desktop Bouncer

Just when you think that the world has just about exhausted just about everything when it comes to puerile USB based gadgets – such as USB powered humping dogs, animated chameleons and even fish tanks - along comes another wholly pointless device, such as this USB Desktop Bouncer.

Featuring an inbuilt motion sensor the USB Desktop Bouncer will speak one of six phrases (indicating that this particular bouncer has an unusually high vocabulary) on sensing anyone entering his security zone and, whilst no where near as effective as placing a Mariah Carey MP3 on continuous loop in ensuing that people keep their distance, the USB Bouncer is no doubt at least faintly amusing for the couple of minutes you have him plugged in before retiring him to the back of a draw reserved for all the other tat you brought on a whim and wish you hadn’t.

Is it us, or is this USB Desktop Bouncer (which retails for £9.99 / $19 / €14) little more than the modern (USB powered) comic equivalent of a fart cushion?
