Under £50 |

The
Pure One is an entry level
DAB radio which still manages to sound great and look stunning
despite its bargain basement price tag. A prefect choice for a
music fan who doesn't appreciate the wood clad DAB radio! |
|
 |
Keeping in touch with family and
friends has never been easier with software packages like MSN
and Yahoo messenger, but you'll need a good webcam and they
don't come much better than the
Quickcam Pro 500. |
|
 |
You'll be surprised just how poor
the earphones are that ship with even moderately expensive MP3
players. Treat someone and buy them something a bit better from
Soundwise. |
|
 |
Want to hear your MP3 player in car,
but don't want to pay Ford / Audio / Toyota hundreds of pounds?
Good news this little
FM transmitter is now fully
100% UK legal and under £50 too! |
|
£50 - £100 |
|
|
 |
The brand
new iPod shuffle is one of
the gadgets to have for Christmas 2006, the revamped shuffle has
a bit more class and style than the old white plastic model and
it's cheaper too! |
|
 |
What do you get someone with an iPod? How about
a speaker system to share your trapped MP3 tracks with the
world, and there is no need to break the bank while doing so
with the excellent
Logic3 istation. |
|
 |
SatNav may seem like an expensive gift, but it
needn't be with the UK's first GPS unit under £100 the
Garmin i2. With all the
features you'd expect this small unit works a treat and the only
sign of its price is the monochrome screen. |
| £100 - £150 |
|
|
 |
What price for your driving license? The
Talex is a PS based warning
system that uses up to date speed camera maps and a good loud
warning to alert you to those hidden cash registers on poles! |
|
 |
Sandisk is a new name on the MP3 player scene
and this offering is a real corker and is giving the iPod Nano a
run for its money too. So if you want an MP3 that isn't
unfashionably cool take a look at the
E200. |
| £150 - £200 |
|
|
 |
Possibly the best SatNav on the UK market. The
TomTom One is now slimmer
and sleeker but just as good at getting you from A-B, it can
even plot a route to the in-laws house if you insist. |
|
 |
The
5th generation iPod is here
and it does so much more than just play MP3 files. With video
playback, Podcasts and the fact it's been on a diet no one is
going to complain if you buy them the king of MP3 players. |
|
 |
The best iPod speaker system on sale today.
Perhaps a strong statement but one we standby, sure it may cost
as much as the iPod itself but speakers systems don't come
better than this one from
Altec Lansing. |
| £200 - £250 |
|
|
 |
Of all the gadgets we have tested this is numero
uno. The
Squeezebox 3 from
SlimDevices is the perfect companion for your MP3 collection
providing sublime streaming media around the home without the
need for wires. |
|
 |
A portable media player for MP3 player money.
Plus the
Archos 604 is very easy to
use and fully compliant with Windows Media file making it easy
to play all those ripped DVD's. |
|
 |
This years must have gadget stems from the Sky+
box. The Freeview PVR brings hard disk recording to the ordinary
TV set and the
Topfield PVR is one of the
best examples available. |
