What if Scissors-Company Fiskars Made Amplifiers?

This is one beautiful amplifier—it's just a shame it's not real. Designer Edouard Urcadez "borrowed" the Fiskars branding to come up trumps with this "88" amplifier concept. There's no point dwelling on the purported specs of it when it doesn't exist beyond our computer screens, but hot damn I want it in my living room STAT.

Unfold the Swiss Army Knife of Electric Scooters in Just One Second

Not that this Volitude scooter has a corkscrew or knife tools—though you could certainly DIY with a few carefully-placed Victorinoxes. Instead, the Swiss-made scooter unfolds in just a second, ready for 18 miles of carefree scooting. It takes four hours to charge it fully for those 18 miles of whizzing, but there's also a slower "walk" pace that can be activated with a press of a button on the handlebar. It has hydraulic disc brakes and inbuilt front and rear lighting. When folded up, it measures 60cm x 85cm, so shouldn't cause too much trauma to fellow commuters when trying to squeeze on during rush-hour.
Unfortunately the price and availability hasn't been set by Volitude yet, but we'll let you know when it has

Are Apple and Canon Working Together on a Secret Project?

Any partnership made with Apple is sure to net the other party a lot of profit and exposure, and I'm willing to bet that even if rumors of a Canon and Apple tie-up don't come to fruition, Canon will still benefit from their name being thrown into the ring. Website CanonRumors has heard that Canon and Apple could be collaborating in the field of photography, perhaps with Aperture or the next Final Cut Pro. According to TechCrunch's sources who were privy to an early showing of the next Final Cut Pro, it will be the "biggest overhaul to Final Cut Pro since the original version was created over 10 years ago." What could Canon's products have to do with it?
Something related to their cameras is obvious, but don't forget they also make printers and copiers. I can't imagine anything groundbreaking could occur in those fields, but would Apple let Canon license a mini version of their video-editing software for use on their cameras? I'm just speculating here, but what do you think could come of this partnership?
AppleInsider has a few ideas, with their MobileMe Photo Stream sounding quite possible. We know Apple's MobileMe is due for a large shake-up this year—and might even go free—but could Canon's Wi-Fi equipped cameras support the transfer of photos and video to the cloud? Or maybe a sort of AirPlay transfer to Macs and Apple TVs?
Whatever it is, we can't imagine Canon's competitors will be too happy hearing these whispers
