Windows Mobile 6.5 this year, version 7 next year?

If like Dan over at Tech Digest, you have a certain level of detestation for Windows Mobile, just skip onto the next post - this is all about 'Life Without Walls'.

The Tefal Quick Cup: The next chapter

There's nothing like a hot cup of tea to help you get through your day (or in my case hot Ribena). Now, the Tefal Quick Cup caused quite a stir when it made its debut into the mainstream. 'Is it actually a kettle?' was probably the most frequently asked question - which is fair enough…
