Gadgets

Like many tech journalists today, I’m on my way to the Gadget Show Live – the UK’s leading consumer technology event.

It’s fair to say that we all got a little ahead of ourselves with the warm weather that came out of nowhere recently.

I don’t know about you, but my stance on satellite navigation systems could be classed as sceptical. They can very useful devices, but when people start using them to get to work every day, it’s gone too far.

I’m a little late to the party here (I like to call it fashionably late), but I just read my first book on my new Kindle. And I have to admit it: I’m in love.

As a dedicated follower of all-things tech, the fact that Amazon’s Kindle Fire is still not available in the UK is a constant source of frustration.

A man’s home is his castle, and that’s certainly true in Britain. We take great pride in our homes in this country, be it a one-bedroom flat or a seven-bedroom mansion.

Apple’s latest iPad was unveiled to the world recently, to an awful lot of praise from all sections of the media and the tech world.

For a long time (well, for most of their very short history) tablets were fixed firmly at the high-end of the gadget market.

Nokia has been making tracks in bringing its mapping service to mobiles for a few months now. After launching Nokia Maps as a mobile web app last year, the company has just given the service a serious shot in the arm by way of voice-guided Sat Navvery. And it’s a sign of positive things to come.

By now, you’ve probably just about come up for air from your PS Vita – the latest handheld console from Sony. After months of twiddling our thumbs and watching the clock, we finally have the Vita in the palms of our hands.
