Hasta La Gadget!

So you have just gotten yourself a spanking new iPad, and will be spending countless hours down the road on the Internet to check out just what are the best kinds of protection that your iPad will be able to enjoy? Look no further if you simply “know” that your iPad is going to end up wet on some days or situations – as the £129.99 Lifeproof Nüüd will be able to offer watertight protection for your iPad.

The Nüüd Case might lack a screen cover, but there is a very good reason for that – you no longer have irritating air bubbles as well as suffer from a lack of sensitivity which can get annoying if you love playing games on your iPad that require precision from your fingers. While that might be true, the Nüüd case will ensure it has its efforts focused on protecting your iPad from damage regardless of whether you’re on the road, in a boat or even caught in sneaky snow-storm.

Sporting an official protection rating of IP68, it should be able to handle just about anything a normal user throws at it. Heck, drop it from 4 feet or less, and the iPad should still be able to work without missing a beat, now how about that? The only thing prohibitive about this would be its price point, methinks.

So you have just gotten yourself the spanking new iPhone 5, and think that it is the best thing since, well, the iPhone 4S. All right, so you are an Apple fanboy at heart, and think that Cupertino is able to do no wrong. I cannot fault you for that as Apple has one of the more impressive corporate marketing machines around, but if there is one area where the iPhone 5 fears to tread, it would be the world of 3D. Fret not, as there are always third party accessories out there that can always help you out – case in point, the £12.99 3D Movie Viewer for iPhone.

Similar to its humble predecessor, the stereoscopic View-Master, the 3D Movie Viewer for iPhone works as named. It is capable of effectively translating the YouTube 3D format by directing the left/right images to the appropriate eyeball, allowing these YouTube videos to be so lifelike, you might even catch yourself reaching out in an attempt to touch the screen. All you need to do is slip your iPhone into the hand-held viewer and let your eyeballs drop their jaws in wonder, if they had jaws to begin with.

Have you ever wondered whether you would do well in an alternate career such as, say, a Ghostbuster? Unfortunate, Egon and gang are nowhere to be found, which is why you might want to get started off first yourself, with the £29.99 Ghost Hunt being a good way to get off on the right footing. The entire objective of Ghost Hunt would be to shoot down the spooky suckers using not some sort of paranormal chanting or spells brewed by a witch, but rather, using a laser gun.

Yes sir, the supernatural and undead, too, are affected by modern day technologies such as lasers. You are able to control not only the speed as well as randomness of the projected poltergeists through the settings, while it comes accompanied by a rechargeable 6-shooter which is what will help you keep track of your score. Heck, Billy the ghost will even let out a scream whenever you are accurate enough to score a direct hit.

So, you have this zany interest in arcades? How about having fun with this rather pricey (but you will not regret it if you are a true blue arcade lover, although the missus might have a thing or two to say about that!) £4,000 Arcane Arcade Table sitting right smack in the middle of your living room? Yes sir, the Arcane Arcade Table is definitely one of the better and more elegant pieces of playable furniture our eyes have ever set on to date. Carrying more than 100 classic arcade games that we have come to know and love over the years, you can indulge in some Bubble Bobble in the mornings, spend your noon siesta time with Legend of Kage, or relax with a bit of Dungeon Crawl right before you call it a night. Not only that, the Arcane Arcade Table will be MAME compatible, meaning you can include a theoretically infinite amount of emulators to enjoy your favorite consoles and arcades.

The integrated dual-core processor inside is accompanied by a 500GB hard drive, relevant Ethernet ports, and a built-in LCD display, and it will surf the Internet just fine by itself, thank you very much. The included fold-out control station will boast of authentic joysticks, spinner, trackball and a brace of buttons that allows up to two players to play, so it evokes the good old arcade feeling in the comfort of your home, minus the dark and smoky environment. Each table will also boast a pair of 30 watt speakers built-in to each end of the table to make the whole arcade experience more real.

Do you remember the singer Shaggy with his mega hit many years ago, Mr. Bombastic? Well, that certainly set off a trend in speak-nging (speaking/singing, you heard it here first!), and I guess that “better late than never” applies to the Boombotix Bluetooth Street Speaker. The Gunmetal Grey and Purplex Purple colors will retail for £49.99, while those who want something different can settle for the Camouflage and Carbon Fiber make up which will cost you 10 quid more, that is £59.99. So, what can the Boombotix Bluetooth Street Speaker deliver in terms of performance?

Touted to fuse urban style with quality audio, the Boombotix Street Speaker relies on Bluetooth connectivity to hook up to your media playback devices. You can clip it to your belt, slip it in a bag or hook it up to a bike, and voila – here you are, a veritable, walking library of tunes that you can share with the rest of the world. Of course, who are we to stop you from just leaving it perched on your desk? That’d be defeating the purpose of its existence though, as if you settle for the latter, you might as well purchase a more decent set of desktop speakers.

Offering up to 8 hours of non-stop audio playback, the battery requires approximately a full hour to recharge. It is also showerproof, and despite being wireless, an aux input is there just in case you have non-Bluetooth devices that want to share the music love.
