I came across a rumor that the design of some hand-held technology and user interfaces may have been influenced by a small device that was reportedly discovered on a crashed extraterrestrial spacecraft. This coke-can-sized device was given to Steve Jobs to play with. It is said to have the ability to project a holographic interface directly through a person's neurology when touched.

It is worth noting that this alleged "smart can" is not to be confused with the rumored "Yellow Book," which is said to be a holographic "smart glass" pad containing a comprehensive history of the universe and requiring a lifetime of reading and understanding to fully comprehend via a neurointerface.
