Favourite April Fools articles?

As usual, April 1st means companies get to make the most outlandish announcements. From advanced new tech to outlandish news stories, there is a lot out there.

Currently I think my favourite in the "Fake item which should be real" category is the HTC RE Sok. The worlds first smart sock with built in GPS to keep pairs together and hole warnings. I'll even buy into the 40% extra slippiness on hardwood floors.

I'll admit that I also love CERNs announcement that they have discovered "The Force" and that researchers are currently using it. If only it was true...
