There’s something really odd about us sometimes. No sooner do we ditch an old technology, bankrupt the industry and move on to a new improved way of doing things, than we start pining for the way things used to be, and gushing over ‘retro’ products that appear on the market.

There’s no question that a good proportion of road accidents nowadays are caused because the driver is distracted by their mobile phone. Both texting and/or making a phone call with one hand can really take your attention away from the road, and in fact according to a BBC report in 2002, researchers found that talking on a mobile phone can actually be more dangerous than drink-driving.

Well they must have heard us, because they’re now back in the market with a completely re-branded, genuinely free music player product, with some free cloud storage thrown in.
Read MoreI stumbled over this rather nifty list of 15 Alternatives to Android Market (aka Android Play) the other day, and it’s rather cool.
