The Mechanical Mustang Riding Horse. Back in the day a mechanical Mustang was something that Steve McQueen drove very fast through San Francisco, but tymes changeth. Today, it’s a high energy workout machine that wouldn’t look out of place in your front parlour [Eh…Ed?]. We can’t vouch for it’s effectiveness in losing those pounds, but we do predict that the fad for these things will fade away as quickly as it did for those little belts you strap on which are supposed to pulse your fat…

This Wireless Multimedia Flexible Keyboard gets our unequivocal vote because it’s a pretty shade of blue. We like blue, don’t we children? OK, so it’s bendy, 2.4 GHz, 104 keys and all that boring jazz. But look at the colour. Fab. Oh and it’s ‘strong and silent’ which is far too cool a tag line to ignore. $29.00.  Wireless Multimedia Flexible Keyboard, which is strong, silent and indestructible, is made of a high quality silicone material. It is also storable and portable…

Cushion Control. Embedding remote control buttons into full sized cushions is either a stroke of genius or madness. To be honest we can’t figure out which yet. Anyway, it’s certainly fun no doubt.  A new generation of remote controls: a bunch of different cushions each having its own function: one for the channels, one for the power, one for the volume and so on. These remote controls can be thrown around, transforming the fights over “who has the remote” into…

The Super Battery recharging device contains a 5 volt, 700 amp rechargeable power pack which you can supplement with a quick wind-up if you need more juice while on the road. Seems like a pretty useful combination from here. $34.95.  Super Battery uses superior USB connection to recharge your iPod. Just keep Super Battery plugged in to any AC outlet overnight, and it fully recharges — holding that charge for at least two weeks. And should you use up Super…

Judging by all the fuss, the Laser Cosmos star field projector is a really cool bit of kit. We can’t definitely comment because we haven’t seen it in action yet, but the retailers certainly seem to rate it. Apparently the main thing is that it appears to be 3D, which gives it the kind of depth normally missing from these gizmos. Anyhoo, it’ll cost ya £149.00 to find out.  Imagine lying in your room, and having the ceiling whipped away…

Customise your Oakley Thump Pro MP3 Sunglasses before you buy (including your own choice of etched phrase on the lenses) using the trendy online configurator. Shame that the $345.00 won’t give you more than a measly 512K of memory though, eh? Plainly you’re paying a premium for the ‘sweat resistant Unobtainium components’. Thank goodness for that.

Bluetooth Wireless Speakers. Let’s just say that you have an urge to play the Tom Jones tracks on your mobile phone loudly. And you can’t be bothered to buy the right cable, connectors and fiddle around plugging the thing into your Hi-Fi system. Well in that case, this might be the answer. Each speaker has a 60W amp inside, so they’re going to be louder than the handsfree on your cell phone, that’s fer sure. But just think what you…
