At 24,800 yen, it is easily the most expensive USB extension cable I've ever seen. It's also easily the strangest I've ever seen -- a plate of spaghetti. SolidAlliance announced the "Cable ga Napolitain" USB extension cable on the 25th, and released it the same day. The cost is 24,800 yen. Cable ga Napolitain is another USB realted product that uses food samples, continuing after the fried shrimp [1], crab, and sushi [2]. This time we have a "USB Extension cable," which uses a Napolitain motif. Napolitain is often considered the "Don of food samples" (Mr. K of SolidAlliance). It also has a faithful reproduction of a fork with spaghetti wrapped around it floating in the air. Since it is just a USB extension cable, there is only one USB port. The port is on the end of the floating fork.
