You can toast your bread while slicing it . Anyone who has seen the HHGTTG movie knows I didn't think of this one myself.

Edit: and anyone who reads this knows I didn't read the article first . Although I would have thought you would cut danishes, not bagels.

Building ones own version is simple. most of teh parts can be obtained on the intergalactic black market with the simpler things such as wires and capacitors coming from Radio Shack.
