GM to auction off their stunning Heritage collection
I don’t own a car. I quite like driving, but I don’t own one. They’re crazy expensive to run, I live in London and, as gadgets go, I’m really excited by them – at least, I thought not, until now.

Samsung launches their high end Yepp YP-P3 in Korea
It’s a bit of a day for portable players of one type or another and although the Samsung Yepp YP-P3 here is not quite as pulse-raising as the Maxian, it does make for interesting competition for the iPod Touch.
The previous model, the Yepp YP-P2 never made it to the UK but if Samsung is serious about taking on Apple…
Maxian M1T pocket PMP – audio-player, video player & mini TV too
Well, well, well, what’s this little sexy creature all about? I imagine that’s what you’re saying in your head right now as you feast your peepers on this, the Maxian M1T pocket PMP.
It’s often hard to get excited about new portables these days. They all seem to be missing something. This, however, isn’t. It basically seems to have everything…
