Sport Shades

These amber-tinted MaxSight contact lenses from Nike filter out blue light to reduce glare and improve the visibility of baseballs, tennis balls and other moving targets. A gray-green version gives golfers an edge by enhancing the dips and curves of a distant putting green. Orioles second baseman Brian Roberts credits his MaxSights with boosting his batting average last season; Michelle Wie wore them during her professional debut. The lenses, like those in any decent pair of sunglasses, also filter out ultraviolet rays.

Wouldn't this constitute cheating? Great link, btw.

I don't want to start a flamewar here, but the tha fact that it presents the PSP as a great invention ruins that whole article. It makes you wonder how many really cool things where made in all other fields, but are not talked about in the article because they don't have the same PR power behind them as the items that are included. For God's sake, the PSP isn't even an invention.

Not as sexy as some of those suggestions, but I think we'll see these on virtually every budget car in a few years time...

Why the hell is the PSP in the list? O_O

Crazy... it's not innovative in any way. The DS is far superior in innovation that that brick. ;_;
Then again, the DS did come out last year... :/
