According to Pocket-Lint, Intel designed and created a surf board that had a built in wireless laptop in it. The board makes its first appearance at the GoldCoast Oceanfest at the North Devon free sports and music festival this weekend.

"The surfboard allows surfers to check their emails, surf the web (literaterally) and even record the footage of themselves catching the best waves. The tablet laptop based on Intel® Centrino™ mobile technology allows a wireless Internet connection from the surfboard to a ‘hotspot’ on the beach," says the article.

Now, and you really thought that you already knew web surfing?
