Mine would have to be Noke, the first bluetooth padlock.

Tough choice, but I went with the 3D printer. My heart wanted that hoverbike, though.

Yes, I also like the 3D printer... but there are lots of 3D printer projects (still awesome) and very few Hoverbikes :)

Orion is cool, but it isnt as obvious. The levatation machine just seems like an incomplete project. The Noke is ok, but I don't have a need for padlocks; plus bluetooth drains my cellphone battery, so I leave it off. The Hoverbike is cool, but I dont like how they entice you with a hoverbike, but sell you a quadcopter. For me, the LittleRP is the best one! It's cheap compared to other non FDM printers.

The Bluetooth lock is very good but I'd love to see that bike flying down the street!

Of these, the Bluetooth padlock is most intriguing. But my vote goes for a 6th project not listed :) ... the NeverSnooze Alarm Clock! I ran across the NeverSnooze earlier this evening, on Prefundia when I was checking out pre-funding platforms and reading all the great resources here on Prefundia, PitchFuse, etc. Here's the NeverSnooze Prefundia link: http://prefundia.com/projects/view/neve ... lock/1869/
