If you’re a fan of watching Patrick McGoohan being chased by spheres in The Prisoner or you’re looking for a compact kitchen well the “O” might be just for you. Amazingly running off a single plug (ideal for expos?) the “O” Kitchen has been designed by a Brazilian team. The seven foot shiny sphere unfolds to reveal a complete working kitchen that includes a dishwasher, microwave, sink, refrigerator and even an extractor system. There seems to be plenty of storage hidden in the TARDIS like space and even has room for garbage disposal and a fire alert system,. Being gadgety you also get online access, MP3 functions and a digital cookbook system all via the main control panel. Set out of the kitchen, click on the remote control and it all folds...

We’ve previously covered some of the good deals on offer from this particular online gadget and gift retailer, such as the recent Christmas Redsave voucher code and also reviewed one of their best selling products in the form of the CIBOX C107 Digital Photo Frame, however Valentine’s Day is almost upon us and now is the time for Redsave’s latest voucher code! Now obviously, just buying your loved one a “gadget” for Valentine’s Day may not be that welcome except perhaps other than the most geeky of people, however luckily Redsave not only sell the regular line of gadgets, but also some of the more mainstream gifts that would be appreciated by non-geeks as well. You can take a look at these specifically assembled gift ideas for Valentine’s Day over...

Ok – we’re still in the crunch even though the Government says that we’re not. Personally – I’m still not rich so buying the girlfriend some swanky jewellery is just not gonna happen. Even on Valentines Day! I might be able to stretch to this rather swish looking beverage though (remember I’m just a musician!). This must be in the running to be the girliest vodka ever created – so she’ll love it! It’s pink, has flakes of real gold, and comes in a gorgeous jewel-shaped bottle. The pink German vodka is infused with edible flakes of genuine 22 carat gold. It’s like a shimmering golden blizzard swirling around in a potent ocean of luxe pink liquor…. well, so says the blurb anyhow! If this doesn’t win you something in return...

Hey all! Thanks for your concerned emails and notifications that GadgetyNews fell off the interwebs whilst I was Tweeting about the iPad. Originally I thought it was just the amount of traffic the site was getting but when I noticed that Geekahol had suffered the same terrible fate – then I knew something was wrong. But – it’s all back now and running as it should be. Stay posted as I attempt to catch up! Jay Related posts:Merry Christmas from Gadgety News! Gadgety News Has A New Home – GadgetyNews.com Happy Birthday to Jay Garrett’s Gadget News / Jay G’s Gadgets!...

First there was the Kindle which became the first mainstream ebook reader when released over in America, this was followed by the Kindle 2 which boasted a whole series of improvements and which finally made it across the Atlantic to us wannabe Kindle 2 users in the UK and Europe. Amazon also released the larger Amazon Kindle DX, again initially it was only available to those in America, however you can now buy a Kindle DX in the UK and Europe too! But first a quick overview of the Kindle DX which was revealed to the American market all the way back in May last year. It’s got a 9.7” screen which uses the same digital e-ink technology that has made the Kindle 2 (6″ screen) so popular as it allows the text to be read in the same way as paper making it a lot easier on the eyes...

Firebox are one of the big-name known online gadgets and gift retailers here in the UK and they often run special offers, voucher codes and sales further reducing the cost of some of the current must-have gadgets. Well they’ve not let us down this January as not only have they had a Firebox January Sale running for the past week or two, but it’s currently still running even now. That being the case, it means you’ve still got a chance to make some sizeable savings on some cool gadgets and gifts, my personal favourites to take a special look at are the R2D2 Projection Alarm Clock, Radio Control Hoverpad, Alien Abduction Lamp – hmmm there’s a few alarm clocks and lamp products there, perhaps some of us have New Year’s Resolutions to get up earlier? I know...

Here at Zath, we’re big fans of hi-tech gadgets, computing, gaming and technology in general, so when the chance to go along to a live show and take a look at some great bits of technology kit comes along, then we want to be there – as seen by our attendance at the Gadget Show Live 2009 event last April and the Eurogamer Expo 2009 in October. Well we’ve just been informed by our friends over at Dabs.com that they’re running two free Technology and Gadgets Show events in March 2010 that the public can attend free of charge! At the Dabs.com Live show events which you’ll be able to see some of the hottest new technology of 2010 being showcased here in the UK…oh yeah, the show will also be being hosted by the Gadget Show’s very own Suzi Perry!

At the risk of stating the obvious, it’s the start of a new decade and this, in conjunction with the Technofile celebrating its 5th birthday (albeit slightly belatedly) seems like the perfect opportunity to give out some awards. Unlike everyone else’s awards though, the Technies are not for the best of 2009, or even for...

We’ve all surely wished we could recharge our gadgets at the turn of a tap. Free, water based batteries would be a genius move. Well, Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies from Singapore has just the thing – the Hydrofill MiniPak. The Hydrofill MiniPak gadget charger was flashed around at CES and, as its name suggests, is designed to charge a range of gadgety gizmos via a USB hydrogen fuel cell. This clever charger extracts the hydrogen from water and stores it in special cartridges, which are then placed inside the Hydrofill MiniPak. The Hydrofill charger also gets the green thumbs up as the only waste product is water vapour. Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies are expected to start selling the Hydrofill MiniPak before the end of 2010. Related posts:Nokia Plan To Recharge Your...

That means even before Christmas Day is here, you can take advantage of some great sale prices where you can save up to 50% off some of the sale items!

In the past, having cinema screens in your house was something only the wealthy could boast. But the Mobile Cinema DVD Projector allows anyone to claim the same functionality on a budget. With built in stereo speakers and a DVD player, you can project your favourite movies of your collection onto any plain wall up to 50” and enjoy high quality video as well as decent audio providing an all round home theatre experience. In terms of resolution, it is lacking in clarity at just 480×240 which may seem ridiculous especially when projected at 50”, but you are getting a huge picture. The LED technology in the projector means that battery life is long so you can actually watch an entire movie before it goes pop. Also, the lamp will last a lot longer than in regular projectors. It is...

Seeing that Christmas is almost here and everybody has no doubt been spending money on presents recently, I thought it might be good to highlight some of the current hi-tech gadget competitions that are currently being run by some of the other technology and gadgets sites out there. Just be sure to get your entries in early as some of these competitions will be closing soon. Good luck everyone! 1. Gaj-It are running a competition in which you can win a Phosphor Watch worth £120 from Red5, all you need to do is sign up to the Gaj-It email newsletter! 2. Coolest Gadgets are giving you the chance to win an LG 42″ LCD TV (42SL9000), this looks like a brilliant prize and one that I’d love to have in my living room, you can enter in three different ways and get yourself 3...

Prezzybox is another online gift and gadget retailer which in a similar vain to Firebox and I Want One of Those provides you with lots of cool gadgets, gift ideas and novelty presents at competitive prices, but how about we throw in extra savings with a discount voucher code? One of the things that I particular like about the Prezzybox website in comparison some retailers is that they are really making it easy to find some great gifts by having different gift guides for different people and prices. The other thing I’m really liking about Prezzybox is the fact that they’ve a great voucher code promotion currently running which gives you £5 off any order over £20, which could amount to quite a saving, especially if spending around the £20-30 range! To make use of this...

The Minoru 3D Webcam is the world’s first 3D webcam! It’s a groundbreaking innovation which gives you not only a great standard webcam, but more importantly, the ability to view you and your friends in 3D. The technology is similar to the current standard of 3DTV which unfortunately, requires the stupid glasses, but nothing like this has ever been incorporated into a webcam before. The device features 2 cameras which allows for the 3D imaging. In terms of aesthetic it is a goofy-looking camera which will cling on to the top of your monitor, but makes for quite a cool novelty webcam in itself. It uses the usual USB 2.0 connection as do most modern web cameras. Also, like the majority of these cameras, it’s compatible with all major messaging applications such as Skype,...

Do you need a Pocket Cinema Projector? Well if you’re like me then you love movies and would love to watch them when you’re out as well as when at home. However, I can’t stand squinting into movies on a small screen such as on your iPhone or other mobile device. So if you are like me, then you will love the idea of a Pocket Cinema Projector which can extract all of the video files out of your pocket sized devices and display them in high quality onto any plain, flat surface up to 50” in size whilst keeping its quality. It features built in controls to play/pause your movies as well as decent standard speakers. There is also a focus wheel so you can control the clarity of the image depending on how far away you are from the surface you are projecting on to. In terms of...

The biggest problem with the majority of laptops is the battery life. In most cases you sacrifice performance for battery life. The PowerGorilla allows you to add up to 6 hours battery life, on the move without any severe clutter. The amazing device is charged itself via the mains and passes on its impressive amount of power via USB to most gadgets including laptops, phones, PSP’s and more. It comes with a ton of adapters in the box to make is versatile as possible. It is fairly easy to control, using the built in LCD screen, you can control the amount of voltage required to charge your gadget and there are several safety features built in to prevent anything going wrong. The PowerGorilla is cased in solid aluminium with shock absorbing rubber pads so it is robust as well as looking...

Most video cameras have a massive problem when it comes to shooting great action shots. And by action shots you normally mean someone driving or running past. This Action Video Camera though, is a totally different kettle of fish. It is capable of filming a downhill pursuit in high quality video, as well as underwater video. But best of all, it costs less than your house! It features a built in 1.5” LCD screen so you can see exactly what you are shooting. As well as a connection to attach it to the handlebars of your bicycle as you hammer it down the hill, there is also a helmet grip for if you want to film from your own perspective, how about recording your skiiing/snowboarding adventures? It comes with 32mb of onboard memory, but thankfully there’s the option to expand it...

It’s that time of year where everywhere you look there’s another ‘great’ Christmas gift idea, but as far as I’m concerned this is definitely one of the best ones I’ve seen year: something that can combine two of the great things in this world liked by the men and children in the family, and some women too I imagine! Yes, Lego and Cameras. So do you really need to buy a Lego Digital Camera? Admittedly if you had too much spare time, a spare digital camera, and you were good with electronics you could probably make one of these at home and save most of the £59.99 price tag, but for those less gifted this is great present for both real and overgrown kids! Admittedly the camera isn’t really up to much in terms of specs with just 3 megapixels, 4x digital zoom and a relatively...

You know sometimes when you’re driving down the motorway and another driver does something completely unexpected and all you want is for them to know exactly how you feel about it. Well the LED Car Sign is a much better way of letting them know than the old two fingers up in the mirror. Of course, this sign isn’t abusive, mostly; the signs project messages such as ‘thanks’ or a smiley face. You can also apologise with a simple ‘sorry’, or you can order them to back off. It attaches to the windows of your car via a traditional ‘sucker’ which provides a strong hold as always. It is powered by 4xAA, as well as 2xAAA batteries. The quality of the red LED lights is clear so you can be sure that the driver behind will get the message as long as they are fit to drive. It is...

You may be a little unfamiliar with who or what Zoombits are and whether you actually need a voucher code for their online store, but they are no newcomer to online technology retailers, they’re actually a name you might be much more familiar with, as Zoombits is actually the new name for Memory Bits! Clearly with a name like Memory Bits, they started out supplying memory cards and the like for you hi-tech gadgets, however as well as continuing to do that, they’ve now branched out into technology accessories, gadgets and gifts – so no doubt the name Zoombits allows them to be less limited as a brand – always quite interesting to see when and how companies decide to make these changes, especially in the run up to Christmas when people shop based on their knowledge...

The Film 2 SD Negative Scanner is an excellent and extremely useful gadget that allows you to take all those old negatives you have lying around, and scan them onto a removable memory card that you find in most modern cameras without the need for a computer. Once you have fed the strip of negatives into your scanner, you can preview the picture on a small screen on the front of the machine. Therefore you can choose the ones you want to scan onto the memory card and discard the ones you don’t. The USB negative scanner comes with a 1 GB SD card in the box capable of storing up to 700 photos at 5 megapixel quality, which is the quality of a lot of modern camera phones so is more than sufficient for most old negatives. It is also compatible with memory cards up to 8 GB, either SD, Micro...

I need a what? A Gorillapod??? Yes indeed, you know when you’re out and you want to take a photo or video, but there is no where to put the camera when you use the self timer and dash into your favourite pose? The Gorillapod flexible camera tripod allows you to tie your camera down onto any surface and use the flexible, but strong tripod legs to wrap around the metal bars on fences or the thicker tree branches. Not only is it capable of attaching to your camera for photo’s anywhere, you can also use it as a clamp for your GPS in your car or iPhone. Professional photographers told Firebox.com that it’s a must have accessory for any potential photographers or even those amateurs who just want decent family snaps including the whole family. The GorillaPod comes in several...

This Portable Plug-In iPhone Charger is an extremely lightweight and compact way of charging your iPhone or even your iPod on the move. As I mentioned in a previous articles about the MiLi iPhone battery power pack dock, one of the most irritating things about the iPhone and all its apps is the battery life when you’re using them. So when you’re out and it dies right in the middle of updating your Twitter or whatever app you are using, you can pop this tiny device into the usual connection and charge it on the move. The resulting charge will give you an extra 5 hours of phone calls or 20 hours of music playback which is usually more than enough if you are on the train home for example. A nice feature of this charger is the 4 LED lights which display the amount of charge the charger...

You may have played video games such as Call of Duty or Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, where the Night Vision Goggles play a massive role in defeating the bad guys. Clearly, they are used in real war as well, but most of us stay well away from all that danger and prefer the safer option of dancing around the garden with plastic Kalashnikov’s that make a funny clicking sound when you pull the trigger. Well you get the idea… Now you can make the experience a far more authentic one, the Night Vision Goggles can give you vision of up to 15 metres in almost pitch darkness. The technology behind them is an infrared light which is barely visible to the naked eye even in the darkest of dark places. The brightness settings are adjustable so you can have clear vision depending on the...

With Christmas well and truly descending upon us at great speed, it’s definitely time for people like me to get their Christmas shopping sorted out and with this in mind I’ve been taking a look at Redsave. They’re an online gadget and gift retailer who feature many of the popular gadget and gift items that everyone is looking for this Christmas, however you can get those items even cheaper now by using this Redsave voucher code for 5% off your order of any value! So if you like the sound of that, then all you have to do to head on over to Redsave and then use the following Redsave voucher code when you go to your cart / go to checkout: 5%OFF So there you have it, a rather useful and well-timed 5% off voucher code for Redsave, I’m sure we’d all like to save...

Sometimes there is so much dirt and mess between the keys on your keyboard that simply wiping it down isn’t the answer and picking each bit out individually is dirty and time consuming. There are other options such as a desktop vacuum cleaner, but this Washable Keyboard is unique and extremely useful. The washable keyboard is probably the cleanest and most hygienic keyboard you are likely to have ever owned. Not only can you rinse it down, dunk it in a bowl of water or even leave it in the dishwasher, it even has anti-bacterial covers so that you never get anything that may cause it to release bad smells every now and again. The keyboard has many uses, it is of great use in medical facilities where hygiene is vital, and now it is available for your home computer, if cleanliness is...

Winter is finally here, and many regions are starting to receive snowfall.  Individuals that love to play in the snow will greatly appreciate the snow shorts with a built-in sled called the Pull-On Snow Shorts. Sledding is one of the most enjoyable activities for both children and adults during the winter.  The snow shorts makes the activity much easier.  The shorts are truly a great idea that cuts down on a significant amount of time because sledding becomes much more simple. The snow shorts have a literal built-in sled so that people can slide around on their bottoms.  This takes away the inconvenience of having to carry a heavy sled up and down a hill.  The pull-on snow shorts is the first wearable sled ever created.  The shorts just need to be pulled over an individual’s...

The USB Cup Warmer is an extremely simple concept that can be extremely useful. You make a cup of tea, sit down at your PC, become thoroughly involved in something and before you know it your drinks are stone cold. However, with this little device being plugged into your USB port, it will keep your cuppa warm whilst you work. The device measures in at 12cm squared, so it’s around the size of a normal coaster and therefore is not going to take up too much space on most desks. It plugs directly into your PC or Mac but unlike some USB devices, this one can be turned off when not in use rather than having to unplug it. It claims to be able to keep a drink maintained at 40 degrees after an hour of sitting around. This seems fairly impressive as most hot drinks feel arctic after sitting...

The HD Ultra Slim Pocket Video Camera is a beautifully sleek, and extremely portable video capture device. Capable of snapping high definition video, or 5 megapixel still photos as well as being an MP3 player. It’s compact, light and stylish. This camcorder stores its videos in .AVI format which is suitable for almost any user as it is compatible with Windows Media Player as well as other media playing software such as the VLC media player. Therefore viewing your creation on your PC is as simple as possible. In terms of storage and transfer to your PC, this video camera contains built in 64mb memory with an option to add an SD card, so in that respect it is similar to most modern cameras. The device is USB friendly with a cable included in the box so connection and transfer is...

The market for e-book readers is becoming increasingly congested these days. The Foxit eSlick eBook Reader is competing against devices such as the Amazon Kindle, COOLER eBook Reader, as well as Sony e-Reader products, which as usual are not what you would call great value with some devices being well over £200. However, competition is rightly good for the consumer and rightly so the Foxit eSlick ebook readers are just £189.99 which is far greater value for money when you consider the quality of the product. It is slim and stylish and extremely functional. Weighing just 180g, it is lightweight, yet still boasts a decent size screen to provide you with an easy reading experience. It’s also available in either black or white models. Headphones are included in the box as the Foxit...

The modern age of first person shooter’s have been crying out for the 3rd Space FPS Gaming Vest ever since it began. All gamers who have enjoyed the likes of Call of Duty or Medal of Honor have always dreamed of a device which allows them to almost get into the game, to be more immersed in it, well how about feeling the bullets without the excruciating pain of real life? The vest features 8 pads which deliver 10lbs of force into your body when you are punched, kicked or shot in-game, giving you some real feedback and improving the gaming experience to leave you with an ultimately realistic immersion of war, minus only the fear of real injury or death. Compatible with many FPS games, and coming with a free copy of Call of Duty 2 for you to get started with. The vest is fully adjustable...

The name doen’t really give a lot away other than the fact that it’s a robot. But the Choro Robo Q is a different robot. In fact, it’s said to be the smallest working robot in existence. It seems that in Japan, where it originated, the smaller the better. The robot is a remote control device which is extremely capable. And portable!. It charges using the controller and it can be carried inside too, which just shows how small it really is because I can assure you, it’s not a particularly large controller. It charges magnetically by coupling with the controller. 20 minutes of charging gives you 5 minutes of play time which may not seem too impressive, but you will probably be bored after 5 minutes of weaving in and out of office stationary. But it is fun while it lasts. A football...
