My boyfriend is always clutching a fly swatter so when I saw an electronic version in our local shop I bought it! It resembles a tennis racket & you press a button & a mild electrical current runs through killing the insects (apologies to all fly lovers at this point). It was only 3 euros. Thing is, it says on the back "harmless to pets & humans" so I touched it, my god, I got a real shock! If you touch anything metal with it you get sparks flying off!!! I´d never seen anything like this before. We have a lot of flies & mosquitoes here!!! Anyone else got a cool gadget?

Oooo. Those electronic swatters are pretty slick. I have seen them for sale at the local Sharper Image. I say the coolest gadget I have laying around is my sony PSP. I modified it, and it can play the old NES games, Arcade games, and a few others. It is a great thing to take along on trips. Can even watch movies on it. It is pretty slick, in my book.
