Novogo V90 GPS.

The Novogo V90 Voice Command GPS system. Not only does it come with a selection of pretty pastel face plates – hooray for Hollywood – but also voice commands so you can tell it where you want to go, rather than laboriously having to tap or type it all in. Wonder how that works then? But the really cool thing is that it comes with free TMC traffic reporting, which as any satnav user knows is an essential tool when you’re trying…

Dr Who Tardis Mobile Phone Flasher.

The Dr Who Tardis Mobile Phone Flasher. It’s kind of a sacrilege to trivialise a Time Lord’s mode of transport like this, especially one which exists in six dimensions, but if it helps the good Doctor to buy some more Dilithium Crystals to continue on his….what? Ah sorry, temporal discontinuity problem. Anywho, it’s £12.99.  Fantastic for all Dr Who fans or just as a great desk or bedroom phone call warning system. Put your phone on silent then when it…

Rustic reminiscences.

The Rustic Leather Photo Book. It kind of makes sense that having paid several hundred, if not thousands, of dollars on your fancy new digital camera, you would want to store the print-outs in something a bit better than a plastic folder from Staples. So why not invest in a classy bit of animal skin? $50.00.  It’s that beautiful… so much so that other books and albums pale in comparison. This is the sister book of our Medieval Photo Book……

Work/Life Clock Table.

The Work/Life Clock Table is battery powered and radio controlled and because it doubles up as a dining table it’s supposed to remind the family about ‘the balance between work life and family life’. I think it will remind families never to use a glass topped table ever ever again around children of a small age.  The daily stress factor has moved into the private homes.The dining table has an embedded watch. It symbolises, the importance of time – and…
