Loving the lockable mug. have heard of them before but never seen what they look like. Where would you get one of them?

Also think the dayclock is very cool.

Did a quick google search and one of the tech-threads mentioned that it was put together as a design but not for commerical use... yet. Doesn't appear on any websites like iwantoneofthose.com anyways.
