Before airplanes had in-flight Wi-Fi and seat-back TVs, it was
up to Skymall magazine to keep you entertained during a long
flight. Leafing through its pages transported passengers to a
fantasy world of magical products, where dogs relieved themselves
on indoor mats and men wore combination sunglasses-hats. We
decided to find out how a few Skymall products performed back on
terra firma, and the result is this eight-product testbed of odd-
but-interesting gadgets.
