Grill food with your laptop on your travels
If you’re traveling on business and you just don’t feel like you have the time or energy to go out to eat one night, what are you stuck with? Room service which may be delicious but is likely expensive. So, hey, bring along your George Foreman USB iGrill!
No, seriously. You plug the iGrill into your USB port and you can then download a recipe, program the type and weight of food you’re making, along with the cooking level you prefer (rare, medium, well done?), and sit back. The iGrill will gather all the data and cook you up a nice almost-home-cooked dinner right there at your computer – and fast!
For top geekitude, you have to have function AND style, so as it cooks, the iGrill will glow softly, then increase in brightness until it’s done.
That’s just really cool. I only wonder how long it takes to get the smell of grilled pork chops out of your keyboard.
(Well that’s embarrassing. I always pride myself on not getting tricked by April Fool’s Jokes, and here I got totally snagged by one. Admittedly, a USB grill is weird, but you know, you can get USB oil burners, electric blankets, and all kinds of other strange devices, so it wasn’t too crazy to think it could exist.)

This is really cool… I wish it will be available in Malaysia soon…
You’re posting this on April 2nd, so that makes me wonder if you realized this was an April Fool’s joke from Think Geek…
Hehehehe!
Yay for April Fools!!!!!!
… But I wonder if they could really do something like that? It’d be cool, even if totally unpractical.
