Created by Morpheus Prototypes, this wooden Wall-E was gifted to “Pixar/Disney Chief Creative Officer John Lasseter.” Sadly, it’s not available for buy. Click here for one more picture.

I don’t know anything about woodworking or sculpting, so I’ll leave it up to you guys to think of how long it could have taken to build this and how much it’s worth.

Two Red Bull-sponsored base jumpers decided to hop off Peak2Peak gondola, which “holds records for its unsupported span of 1.88 miles between the two furthest towers, and for its rise, measuring over a quarter mile above the ground at its highest point.” Videos after the break.

At 16 miles per hour, it makes the traverse between the mountain tops, in 11 minutes. Contrast that with the usual ski down one peak, plus a number of gondola, chair and tow rides upward, which easily could take over an hour or three.

At first glance, it might look like a credit card, but it’s actually a functional solar-powered calculator — priced at $6. Best of all, it fits nicely in your wallet. Click here for one more picture.

I could carry it around in my wallet and work out a tip or a grocery bill as I go. It’s also a decidedly nice design, looking enough like a credit card that maybe it’d appeal to the spy in all of us, as well.

The 2010 Ford Shelby GT500 is touted as the powerful factory production Mustang ever, powered by a supercharged 5.4L V8 engine that cranks out 540hp and 510 lb-ft of torque. It’s set to hit dealer showrooms this coming spring. Click here for first picture in gallery.

Like the more prosaic Mustangs, the GT500 is mechanically an evolution of the older model. Just as Ford used the current-gen Bullitt model as the starting point for the 2010 Mustang GT, the lessons learned from developing the limited edition GT500 KR fed directly into the latest Shelby-badged variant.

FLATMII is basically a small device that attaches to the Wii’s drive ribbon, allowing you to “stream ISO backups of your games from your Windows XP or Vista Personal computer.” Video after the break.

Nintendo has gone to some lengths to keep one step ahead of the modding community, but to little avail. We’ve recently seen a product that enables DVD playback on the Wii, and now we’ve been hepped to FLATMII.
