The iTypewriter by Austin Yang, who sez:

It is a typewriter for the ipad. Users can enjoy the old feeling
of typing and also the lastest technology. Even though the 
elder users who have never used the computer or ipad, they 
can use this familiar typewriter and type in the familiar 
operation way. For some specific group of users, this product 
provide an easier way to type on the ipad. People could be 
able to recollect old experience and memory by familiar 
appearance and haptic feedback.

Almost certainly some class of wind-up, in which case the demo video shot in portrait format, presumably on an iPhone, is a lovely touch.

The Double from DoubleRobotics: your face on an iPad on a stick on a bobbin.

Out there. Rolling about the place.

The maker sez:

Double is the simplest, most elegant way to be somewhere else in the world without flying there. The minimalist design and intuitive touchscreen controls allow you to freely move around without inconveniencing others. You can stay at eye level, whether sitting or standing, by adjusting your height remotely, which makes conversations fluid and real. Retractable kickstands will automatically deploy to conserve power when you are not moving around. Efficient motors and lightweight design give Double the ability to last all day without recharging the battery.

$2,000. First production run sold out. Shipping early 2013.
