From an amphibious computer to floating lounges! There’s just no stopping when the rich decide to indulge… Check out these amazing yacht toys. Yes, some of these are only concepts, but what a concept they are. The "PC of the Swim Rings" for example would turn the most hapless landlubber into a water rat, creating a floating computer and media center.
Displayed at the Next-gen PC Design Competition, this aquatic marvel would include "a GPRS receiver, Bluetooth, finger-touch input, solar power-driven processor, water-cooling system, magnetic charging interface, and waterproof design." Hey, if you're going to dream, might as well go all the way.
And just to show that it isn't entirely frivolous, according to BornRich, the "amphibious PC" can also be detached to double as a land-based computer with a 7-inch LCD, Webcam, stereo speakers, and even a backlit keyboard for nocturnal use. As long as we're talking fantasy, we request that it be combined with the "RadioRaft"--especially its six stainless steel cupholders--to make it the greatest pool invention ever made.
'RadioRaft':It’s a completely submersible radioraft, with 400 watts of power, that will give you 8 continuous hours of play time, with 6 stainless steel cupholders, a watertight glove box to protect your iPod with controls on the top. So, yeah, they basically took a bouy and put in some cup-holders and speakers. Oh, and an iPod dock. All for the outrageous price of $2000.
You must be having designer pool floats in your pool, but then most of them are meant for single persons! So, if you want to swim and party with your group then this Cabana Islander is the float for you! The luxury floating cabana island paradise is constructed of heavy-gauge PVC with a boarding platform, center swim porthole and a detachable, wind-resistant, nylon shade. The cabana float includes a floating 16-quart cooler with cup holders, and a rope grommet for tethering. The spacious cabana float can accommodate 6 persons and is priced at $319.99.

at $319 i think its a good buy.. heres a question.. by when do u think Indians will be ready for such products?
@Gautam
Such products require clever marketing and timely placement. An environment for such a product needs to be created. Waterfront townships, get-aways and resorts are cropping up along the uncharted Indian coastline like wildfire!
Once the Indians have caught on the trend of exploring waterbodies for recreation, I think they will be ready for such a product. Finances are hardly the criteria!
We are talking of a shift in lifestyle and the way Indians choose to entertain or pass their leisure time.
Thanks for the comment!
