    I just paíd $20.87 for an íPad 2.64GB and my boyfriend loves his Panasoníc Lumíx GF 1 Cámera that we got for $38.79 there arriving tomorrow by UP S.I will never pay such expensive retail príces in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 40 inch LCD T V to my boss for $657 which only cost me $62.81 to buy.

    A real geek would use a patch panel, but this is still creative.

    Would be great in the office for the IT closet keys.  Could tie in with a Arduino and Ethernet Sheild to notify which key was taken when, and if it wasn’t returned within a certain amount of time :)  Use an RFID badge to disable an alarm and to “check out” a key.  

    What an awesome idea.

    Use USB instead of RJ-45 to accommodate key chain thumb drives

    if you used a old switch, and made the plug into a loopback,  you could have the lights go out when the key is missing.
