History of TV
12:00PM Nick Broughall | In 1978, Sir Clive Sinclair – inventor of the pocket calculator and the ZX Spectrum computer – released the world’s first portable television, the MTV-1. It was a bit chunky to be called pocketable, although that could have something to do with the fact that it packed a 2-inch CRT inside its body… More »

4:16PM Nick Broughall | I like the design on Toshiba’s new portable hard drives. It may not be revolutionary, but there’s something about the black and red swirl on the 640GB version that makes me think of throat lozenges. Tasty throat lozenges. More »

12:48PM Chris Oaten | In this digital storage device face-off, we’re looking at two products that may do the same thing, but are chalk and cheese at face value. Canon’s M80 storage device (much like Epson’s device, indeed almost one and the same) and Digital Foci’s Photo Safe II have been on the market for some time but there isn’t much choice in this area, so they stand up as current offerings.

11:30AM Chris Oaten | Apple’s new iPod nano has a video camera. Surely, we’ve all heard Hitler’s take on the insanity that is Apple putting a vidcam in the nano but not in the touch, so let’s get past that. How does the video actually stack up? More »

11:55AM Nick Broughall | We’ve all been there – you drew the short straw and ended up as designated driver. It’s late – you’re tired, grumpy, sober and your mates are begging you to find a late-night kebab store for an early morning munchy fix. You just want to go to bed. Fortunately, the Latestbuy Car Stove means that your drunk mates can cook their own kebabs while you drive home. More »

11:47AM Nick Broughall | It seems somewhat strange and unnatural to me that people would buy a portable DVD player in an age where almost everyone owns a laptop, an iPod Touch or a PSP. But then again, I also think it’s strange that people choose dumbphones over smartphones, so who am I to judge? In any case, Toshiba’s catering to the non-DVD ripping or bittorrenting crowd with their latest portable DVD player. More »
