iDrink opens bottles

Now isn’t this one of the niftier bottle openers you’ve ever seen? Dubbed the iDrink, it comes in the form factor of an iPod courtesy of internal design firm Sonic Design. Not only that, the iDrink opener will be compatible only with bottles purchased from the iDrink store (retailing for $0.99 each). An integrated battery pack in the iDrink is proprietary, so you can only change it from the manufacturer themselves. Sonic Design has not yet mentioned whether it will sell these on an official basis or not, but word on the street has it they will go for $5.99 a pop at this point in time before a $2.00 price drop is introduced a couple of months’ after its release. I love allusions, and this is definitely one of the better ones to surface on the Internet in a long while.
