Can't afford iPod speakers? Take a look at the CupSpeakers
If you had it your way, those brand spanking new iPod speakers you've been eyeing up for months would be at the top of your Christmas wish list. But alas, with the credit crunch, bills and other financial woes, you won't be getting them this year and that's all very sad. I wouldn't call these…
Review: Trialling the GO!View service on the PSP

Tight Christmas times? Give the (free) gift of the internet
It's going to be a tight 'ol Christmas, if newspaper headlines are to be believed. And let's face it, you've spent so much on your iPhone contract, the deluxe all singing all rocking version of Guitar Hero World Tour and all the apps under the iTunes sun, you've got no money for things like gifts.…
Logic3 Valve80 brings warm sound to your (possibly) cold living room
There's something slightly love/hate about the new Valve80 iPod speaker system from Logic3.

But the biggest sign that Christmas is imminent? Red cups at Starbucks.…
Cool concept: There's no escaping that dreaded wake up call with this
There'll be no fleeing of this alarm when it turns on in the morning (well, I guess you could really, but it's called the Escape Clock, and is fashioned as an ESC key, so there had to be some kind of escapism reference in there somewhere). It isn't only used to get you out of…
Facebook app for Android loses the 'ace' for fBook
The stalemate between Facebook and Google over an official Facebook application has developed and, ladies and gents, there's been a breakthrough. There is now a Facebook app for the G1. Which is good news for many Facebook aficionados, because let's face it accessing it via the web browser is just not the same, is it?…
The Xdream bike takes fitness to a new level of entertainment
The difficulty people have with fitness is that they know they need to do it. Much like homework, vegetables and maths, something that you know is good for you often feels like a real chore. So how do you make something so necessary entertaining? You could talk about how you're working both your upper and…
