If I thought those multi-colored pens with a highlighter on the other end were cool, the Griffin Stylus just takes multi-functionality to a whole new level. Designed for students and professionals alike, the Griffin Stylus ($49.99) can be used to write on paper (if people still actually do that these days), to pick and poke a touchpad, or to laser-point out just about anything that needs pointing and attention. The tip can switch between pen, stylus, and laser pointer – for whatever need arises, be it an school exam or an office presentation or just something you want to poke your DS with.
Now it might be a little excessive and expensive for such a tool, but then again, that’s what innovation is all about – inventing things with more functions and giving us more needs before we ever really need them.
