Mimoco, creator of the MIMOBOT® line of designer USB flash drives and MIMOMICRO® card readers, and Cartoon Network Enterprises, the licensing and merchandising arm of the television network, announce a brand-new partnership that will bring fan-favorite characters from the network’s hit original comedy series, Adventure Time to the MIMOBOT collection of designer USB flash drives. Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, and Fionna, core characters from the series, have all been faithfully rendered in stylized MIMOBOT-form. Beginning this summer, the products will be available in up to 64GB capacities and come preloaded with awesome bonus Mimory™ content including Adventure Time episodes, sound bytes, and the MimoDesk™ suite to personalize your desktop, tablet, and other mobile devices.

“Mimoco is thrilled to be entering the Land of Ooo with our new series of Adventure Time MIMOBOT flash drives,” says Scott Seraydarian, Director of Media at Mimoco. “Adventure Time’s vivid and endearing world fits right in with the MIMOBOT sensibility, and we’re excited to be one of the first to bring these awesome characters into the real world.

Whether it’s saving Princess Bubblegum, defeating zombie candy, mocking the “oxy-moronic” Ice King, or rocking out with undead music wiz Marceline the Vampire Queen, with Finn & Jake it’s always Adventure Time.

The Adventure Time X MIMOBOT designer USB flash drive collection, including Finn, Jake, and Princess Bubblegum is now available exclusively at www.mimoco.com, while Fionna MIMOBOT will be available exclusively at Comic-Con International in San Diego on July 11-15 in a limited edition of just 500 pieces.

We’ve teased you guys with Timbre a few days ago, so now we’ve received a new email featuring what their Team Manila designed headphones would look like. Check them out.

These would be the first of three headphones each sporting their own unique design which happens to be a collaboration between the aforementioned team manila and timbre.

Personally though, I wouldn’t settle for any other headphones because this particular design looks perfect. It’s got the colors red and black, sports the sun design used in the Philippine flag and it’s got a mix of subtlety and a bit of classiness.

I’m not really sure if I can say the price but I assure its less expensive compared to that overhyped Beats. Heck its a lot cheaper compared to the fake Beats they sell in Greenhills these days. Plus it’s got a great sound. We plan to use this when we start doing our podcasts.

Oh I also got an email regarding where Timbre will next pop out…

Say goodbye to your old headset as there’s a gorgeous new headphone hitting the market. It’s called Timbre (or tam-ber) and it has the distinction of being the first Filipino made headphone.

Details are currently hush hush, but here’s what I can say. These magnificent headphones will sport three different designs all of which was done by acclaimed Team Manila.

Funny during the weekend, the rest of the Flipgeeks gang was doing a round table discussion about those overpriced “BEATS”.

Within the last 24 hours, Apple has presented the latest iPhone – iPhone 4S. They featured a Siri type system and shared that the phone is faster, takes better video and pictures.

Siri is a voice feature that seems to be a big potential success and a big differentiator from its top-end competitors. Here’s the video:
