We wrote about this camcorder from Disgo a few weeks back, which went on sale recently at Dixons, Curry’s and PC World for £40. Yes, £40. Check…
Video Preview: Voice-activated Dalek for Doctor Who fans
Proper daleks don't respond to voice controls very well. You say 'don't zap me!', they ignore you and shout 'Exterminate!', and basically it's all a bit of a shambles. Ah well.
Shiny Shiny's Susi has found a dalek that's more polite, however. It's a voice-controlled dalek, which can react to movement, answer questions, and generally behave more like a decent, upstanding member of society. Check it out below:
Shiny Media Review: Ferguson Hill FH007 Speakers and FH008 subwoofer

Shiny Video Review: Apple iPod 'fatty' Nano
We probably should’ve posted this video last Wednesday, when it was International Talk Like A Pirate Day and Susi’s pirate get-up would’ve, err, made sense. Nonetheless, it’s a nice little video showing off the new iPod ‘fatty’ Nano which comes in a 4GB silver version for £99 and 8GB models in silver, black, blue, green or red for £129…
Shiny Video Review: Apple iPod Classic

In today’s video, we look at the iPod-compatible suit jacket from Marks and Spencer. Simply connect your iPod to the attachment inside…
