The EnterTrainer. What a wonderfully genius gizmo. Hook the wireless heart rate monitor to your chest, sync the unit to your television set and the kit will reduce the television volume unless you maintain your chosen exercise heart rate. That’s right, if you slow down pedalling or walking or rowing or whatever, the TV volume decreases and eventually the telly goes off . Genius. Love it! $139.00 and we want one. Now! [Thanks Michelle] (Oh, and watch out for the iTrainer Cardio Headphones coming soon for…

The Pioneer…[whoa, time out, time out. Whose clever dick idea was that headline? Eh? Speak up. Yours chum? Well you’re fired, now get out. And stop snivelling, OK?]… Right, where were we? Oh yes. The Pioneer AVIC HD1BT Hard Drive Sat Nav Entertainment System. The first vehicle sat nav system which can ‘intelligently recognise and store your frequently-used journeys’. Plus it will also hold 160 hours of music on the hard drive which you control by voice. Neato. Now, who’s going to explain to…

The Nexus Psile Quiet Media PC looks pretty cool in its standard configuration. Mmm…? Oh sorry, it’s a tiny, silent, mini-itx PC that looks almost, but not quite, like a Mac Mini. But why did they have to go and spoil it all with covers? Covers, for goodness sake. Sheesh! From £169.00 barebones.  One of our own test systems was tested in a ISO certified anachoic chamber for noise testing. We selected an average quiet hard disk drive and used a intel pentium m processor…

The Wharfedale 40GB HDD Micro System. Man, you know there’s something seriously weird with the world when your Hi-Fi system comes with more storage power than your computer. The 40GB hard disk stores up to 8000 tracks and the system will automatically rip and convert your CDs to MP3 as you play them, complete with a full track list and labelling from the integrated CD database of 1.9 million albums. Complete with a USB port for transferring MP3s to portable players. Now that’s what…

The Hawking Technology Hi-Power USB WiFi Dish. Connect your laptop or desktop up to one of these puppies and you’ll be grabbing your 802.11g signal from Guatemala. Well OK, from a nicely extended distance away anyway. Of course, not everyone wants or needs to carry around a satellite dish in their laptop case, but hey, you might have your own reasons. And lets face it, when you’re done computing for the day, you can always turn it on its side…

Candy Floss Maker. Uh-oh. Sugar death comes to the kitchen table and dentists everywhere laugh maniacally. But doc, how better to finish my nerd pizza birthday fest than with some raw sugar coated on a stick? £34.95.  As the machine heats up, the central head begins to spin, forcing liquid sugar through its tiny perforations. The instant the threads of sugar hit the air they cool and re-solidify, causing a web of sugary threads to develop in the dishwasher-friendly collection…
