The CherryPal ultra-losable ultra-portable PC
Check out this ridiculous little thing. It looks like a USB hub or some sort of budget-brand router you might buy off eBay for £7.99. But no – it’s the CherryPal. It is a proper PC.
Inside the minuscule case there’s a Freescale 5121E processor with integrated graphics powers, accompanied by 256MB of main memory and a 4GB flash drive – CherryPal users are expected to store files online. This frugal little lot helps the little CherryPal to bravely run using only a frankly stunning 2Watts of energy…
Portable round DVD player and Simon separated at birth?
This black portable round DVD player is reminiscent of that childhood classic electronic memory game, Simon, but in fact it has a 3.5-inch TFT screen, DVD and MP3 playback, SD card reader, and video and audio outputs for connecting up to other equipment.
I’m not sure if the manufacturers made the unit round so that it seemed bigger, when really they should’ve invested a bit more money and made a rectangular one with a bigger screen. Who knows?…

It could be with us by the end of the year…

Actual images of Guitar Hero Mobile – and it's out now
Guitar Hero’s everywhere. On everyone’s consoles. On the DS. On the news. In blenders. And now it’s actually available in miniature format, should you have a decent enough mobile phone to handle it.
And it looks like that. That picture there. No, the one to the left. The one of the phone? See that thing on the screen? Yes? Good! That’s what GH III looks like running on a mobile phone. That’s also the frame rate it’ll run at on my ancient Nokia, too…

Rock lessens the burden with new Pegasus 210 ultraportable
The laptop world’s a funny old place. You can buy a top-spec machine in an ugly old case for £299, or you could have a Vaio or MacBook Air with the same specs for £1500. How does that make sense?
Aggressively attacking the vacant mid-ground is this – the new Pegasus 210 from power-maker Rock. It features a 12″ screen, classy magnesium alloy body…
