GEEK TOY: THE ANNOY-A-TRON

by Hazed

If you really want to annoy somebody in the office, then this geek toy will really do the trick. It's a small, thin piece of electronics, with a magnet that lets you attach it to the metal bits underneath somebody's desk. If you switch it on and then hide it, it will start to do its very annoying stuff.

So what, exactly does it do? It generates a short beep every few minutes. That's all. It varies the interval between beeps - it could be 2 minutes, or 8 minutes, or anything in between. There's a switch on the device that lets you choose how high the frequency (and therefore the pitch) of the beep should be, or have it alternate between two frequencies.

It's guaranteed to send your victim mad! Hence the name.

It costs $9.99 and you can read more, or buy it, on the Think Geek website.
