--- USB shaver

You need a shave. You're in an airport or on a crowded airplane with no source of electricity except for one: the USB port in your notebook. What can you do? Plug in your rechargeable USB electric shaver, of course.

While the idea of a USB electric razor may be in the category of 'wild and crazy' so far as gift ideas go, it might actually be useful to the geeky man or woman on your gift-giving list. USB shavers are available for about 30 dollars from online venues such as Gizmodo.com. Just do a search for 'USB shaver.'

I wonder how well they work. Im not sure what kind of power a shaver would require. A USB port only gives 5v at 500mah. So I would think you would need to have some sort of battery that it charges. In which case you could just buy a cheap razor from Walmart and build a quick USB power supply.
