If you are hyper-organized, slightly OCD, and have tons of Stuff (we plead guilty to all 3) you might be interested in the Groqit. It's a handheld scanner that looks like a pen. Use it to scan the barcodes on all your books, CDs, DVDs, games, etc. (it can store up to a million barcodes). Next time you see something in a store and wonder if you have that item at home already, just scan it and find out. To add another level of geekery to the mix, connect the Groqit to your computer and use the Groqit website to "translate" barcodes into product names and make online inventories and wishlists. We're thinking this could be a useful tool for first-time eBayers who want to get rid of a lot of their stuff.
