Weird Star Wars Tech We Want For Our Very Own

We're not talking lightsabers or Death Stars here, buddy. Everyone wants those. But how about Coolth backpacks and lightwhips?
Lobot's Borg Construct

Any time you need to make a quick buck, bet that a "Borg" exists in Star Wars and then whip this one out to your overly-eager Star Trek friends. Lobot, Lando's right-hand manbot on Cloud City, is memorable for that cybernetic muff attached to his bald head. This gadget, called the Borg Construct, links Lobot directly to the city's central computer. We'd love a head implant that permanently connected us to the computer, allowing us to fulfill our mothers' demands that we get fresh air without leaving our precious interwebs behind.
