Zara is still over in Berlin checking out the gadgets at IFA 2008. Check out the video below where she demonstrates an unusual hybrid device that combines digital photo frames and cameras that can be used as baby monitors or security cameras - ideal if you're a big fan of surveillance society or destroying the…

Duncan Geere writes... No, actually, it's not. Because nothing could possibly be as rugged than Chuck Norris. What it does rival is the Ricoh G600. When I say "rival" though, I actually mean "spec slightly worse in every category". There isn't any price yet, though, so maybe that's where it can win out. The Rollei…

Over in Berlin, Zara's been hunting down camcorders - specifically the new Everios from JVC - the HD30 and HD40. They've got dual-format recording, so they record in both MPEG2 and AVCHD. This means you can get far more video into much less storage space. 50 hours onto the 120GB HD40. It's got 10x optical…

Dan's been taking a look at a laptop dock from Fortune Technology called the Sound Base G1. You sit your laptop on it, plug it in via USB, and then you get to enjoy surround sound with your music. Simple, and attractive. No word on when it's out or how much it costs. More IFA…

The aim of DLP Pico-Projectors is to allow you to display content any time, anywhere - without the hustle and bustle of carting around something weighty. And as Texas Instruments DLP moves into the consumer market, they bring a whole lot of projecting goodies with them. Both Toshiba and Optoma will be releasing miniature projectors…

Drivers fed up of listening to the same recycled dribble on the radio while cruising will love this nifty little device. Why? Because you get to make the radio your little puppet, by making it play whatever you want it to play, that's why. This basically means playing songs from your ipod through your radio.…

As you've probably garnered from the picture, this is one behemoth of an all-in-one audio unit. It's not as attractive as those crystal-y speakers we saw earlier from Harman-Kardon, but it does pack some serious all-in-one audio goodness. This isn't some kind of lame trick from Harman-Kardon either, attempting to dupe you into buying something…

This isn't the first time Nespresso has brought some red carpet bling to a coffee machine. This time it's added some pink sparklers to the Essenza coffee machine and will be releasing a bunch in October to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Moving away from Harrods to an equally plush retailer, Nespresso will be…

If these speakers from Harman-Kardon were released around the same time as the latest Indiana Jones movie (you know the one with the crystal skulls), it wouldn't be too far-fetched to assume they were some kind of unsubtle movie promotion to get our asses in those cinema seats. Ok, Indiana Jones stuff aside, these strangely…

Gary Cutlack writes... Get ready for this, specification fans - the Philips Flat TV features a 2ms response time and a dynamic contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1. It does this by a very technically complex fashion to do with an LED LUX system the stops light leaking. I'll let Andy from HDTV explain. He's better at…
