Condom Wrapper Can Be Opened One-handed

How many intimate moments have been ruined by fighting to open up a condom wrapper? Far too many. However, those days may be over thanks to this unique new design. Designer Ben Pawle has created a new type of wrapper that lets you get the condom out of the package using just one hand.

This design features a perforated seam that easily opens when you slide your thumb along the face of the packet. The condom then falls neatly into your hand. It couldn’t be easier. Your moment of passion won’t be disrupted, and you can get on with your business.

The design comes from the result of a study at the Glasgow School of Art, where they were looking into ways to make life easier for disabled people. Though this design can help us all.

Gooma Case Marine Keeps Smartphones Nice and Dry

In most situations, if you drop your phone into water, there’s a good chance that it’s toast. Granted, there are ways to save it, if it wasn’t underwater for too long. The Gooma Case Marine is a soft polyurethane skin that stretches over your phone that’s designed to protect it from water.

The condom-like Case Marine is only 0.25mm thick and has a JIS rating of IPX8, which means that it’s waterproof to nearly 33 feet. That’s pretty amazing for something so thin. Naturally, you’ll need to peel it off in order to use the dock connector or headphone jack. The current version works with iPhone 4/4S and Samsung Galaxy II phones, but an iPad version is in the works as well.

The premium version of the Gooma Case Marine sells for as little as $38 if you happen to live in Japan, but if you must have one, you can find it at the Japan Trend Shop for the rather ridiculous price of $71(USD) – plus shipping.
