Swimline Radio Control Boat Race Set
July 23, 2008
The seven-year-old wasn’t the only one who was disappointed. The box had held such promise. All week I had been planning to re-enact scenes from Miami Vice the movie (although this time it wouldn’t involve running drugs to Cuba) and race go-fast boats across our swimming pool. We waited for Saturday,... Read the story »
Epson EMP-X5 LCD Projector
July 17, 2008
The Epson EMP-X5 LCD Projector is another great projector produced by Epson. This projector is, however, not aimed at the home/cinema user but rather at a business user and the projector is more suited at doing presentations than playing games, but more on that later. Read the story » Read More →
Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 3000
July 7, 2008
Make no mistake I am a HUGE fan of wireless anything. I hate the clutter of cables and welcome the benefits of wireless peripherals. My current mouse is wireless but my keyboard unfortunately isn’t so I was eager to give the Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 3000 a run. Packaging The packaging... Read the story »
Steiner 8×30 Safari Pro Binoculars
June 30, 2008
I did a bit of bird watching this weekend to test the Steiner 8×30 Safari Pro binoculars, but bird watching is not its strong point. The 8×30 Safari is rather an all-purpose outdoor model, which is compact and light enough for easy traveling. Read the story » Read More →
One For All Kameleon 8 in 1 Universal Remote Control
June 27, 2008
If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably got at least 4 remote controls on your coffee table: One for your television, DVD player, DSTV and perhaps a surround sound system. Not only is this an inconvenience, but it starts to become an eye-soar and the risk of losing a remote in a crevice of a... Read the story »
Polar RS400 Running Computer Watch
June 25, 2008
I shouldn’t have said it, “hey, that’s cool”. The geeks took one look at me and another at the Polar RS400 Running Computer and decided who would be testing it. At first I mistook it for a generous offer. That was before daily temperatures dropped below 15 degrees and winter bit back. The Polar... Read the story »
Polaroid PDC 3070 Digital Camera
June 23, 2008
When I initially received the Polaroid PDC 3070 digital camera I was confused as to why Polaroid, famous for the instant printed photo, would create a camera that prints your image immediately and then stores it digitally. I soon discovered that this camera does not print out your images and is Polaroids’... Read the story »

Disney TT450 2 Slice Toaster
June 20, 2008
I was looking at buying a toaster the other day. The choices where endless, but no toaster, irrespective of its fancy brushed metal exterior or ultrasonic toasting speed, convinced me. Coincidentally I walked past a red and silver Disney toaster and was so intrigued that I bought it… Read the story... Read the story »
Logitech DriveFX Axial Feedback Wheel
June 19, 2008
Being a recently PC converted Xbox gamer I was really excited to compare my 2 year old legendary Logitech MOMO PC Wheel against it’s Xbox 360 counterpart, the Logitech DriveFX Wheel. Tearing the box open, first impressions are good, the wheel itself has a real solid feel, the rubber grips are... Read the story »
