The spherical mouse is like no other

This Spherical Wooden Mouse throws all the rules of a standard mouse out the window. Using an accelerometer to track your movements, this rotund rodent couldn't be more different to the typical two button, two dimensional mouse we've become accustomed to. The Jupiter (all will be explained) is extra special due to the handmade effort…

Heidi Klum next to do a bit of Risque Business for Guitar Hero

In light of the column I wrote last week on the association of technology with women, it couldn't be more palpable than it is in this snippet of advertising for Guitar Hero World Tour. It's a short vid of the ever-stunning Heidi Klum, donning the pink shirt and white socks as famously worn by Tom…

Calling all lady DJs – do we have a turntable for you

"Woman and technology - yes!" It's not a particularly new revelation, but according to German brand Scheu Analog it is, as this is what's plastered at the top of its website for women. Sexist shizzle aside, Scheu Analog has a beauoootiful piece of DJ equipment aimed specifically at the DJ loving ladies - namely because…

The Swap watch for a bit of sneaky espionage or James Bond impersonations

If you thought Bluetooth watches were cool, prepare to be dazzled. The Swap Smart Watch wouldn't look out of place in the new Bond movie.

Cute/creepy/cuddly webcam up for grabs

The verdict on this one is out - it's cute, but at the same time slightly terrifying with a dash of creepy. I think it's the slit eyes that have done it. Perhaps so much emphasis shouldn't have been put on the fact it's a bunny (yes it's a bunny - in case you didn't…

Colourful Cubo cubes make lovely music boxes

This cute and curvy audio device is better known as the Cubo from Sonoro. Apparently it's a combination of "acoustic excellence and sleek design" delivering an "unrivalled clarity of sound" with its CD player, DAB and FM radio offerings. When you've had enough of the radio or you're sick of listening to the same albums,…

Asus preps a 12-inch S101 copycat

The rather swanky and luxurious S101 is about to get a 12-inch opponent, but unlike the S101, this will fall under the company's notebook line-up rather than the high end Eee netbook range. That's because the president of Asus has officially declared he won't be calling any laptop with a screen size of more than…

The golden PC gets the Midas touch

The man with the Midas touch has been all over this golden PC it seems. But this golden box isn't made entirely from gold (that'd be one costly PC). Instead, it's made from ceramics with a gold coating, which makes the price more pocket pleasing. A quick visit to the product page tells me the…

Keep hands cosy with the ski glove iPod controller

The calendar may say November (so it's not officially winter yet) but the weather over the last week has been downright winterish. It feels like we've been below freezing recently and the bouts of snow and monsoon style rain hasn't helped. So, the gloves and scarfs are out, but this poses a potential problem -…
