The ThinkPad STACk adds layers
of productivity to your laptop. The units

hard drive, dual uSB power bank, and a
Wi-Fi access point – hold together
magnetically, with a 136x76mm footprint.

Seagate claims to offer the world’s
thinnest 500GB portable hard drive – just
7mm thick and 122.5mm long. The Sevenmm
connects and powers via a braided uSB
3.0 cable and has a reassuringly utilitarian
design, inspired by the ‘bare drive’ look.

4. AMpliCiTY
Amplicity is similar to an Intel nuC. The
difference is that instead of buying it, you
rent it at $99 for six months. With 4GB
RAM, 128GB storage plus 1TB cloud space,
it comes with office and Creative Cloud,
and is a bit bigger than a smartphone.

5. ZUTA
zutALabs has torn the print head out of a
conventional printer, robotised it in a neat
teardrop design, and is now selling it as a
pocket printer. Put your paper down on a
flat surface, place zutA top left, send it the
file, and – bzzzt-bzzzt-bzzzzt – page ready.

You could copy your pics from your phone
to your computer and print them, or go to
a website to do it for you. But a Prynt case
for your smartphone has a printer built in,
including 10 sheets of paper, meaning you
can snap and print on the spot.
