One of the coolest gadgets I have seen is a GPS. These are great for all those guys that hate to stop and ask for directions and try to use their male senses to find their way around. Now, they can even have a GPS system that is voice activated, turn by turn.

Rumour has it that Motorola are due to release an iTunes compatible phone in the not too distant future. Does anyone actually listen to mp3s on their phone? You’ve been able to do it for a while but as with a lot of nice ideas the actual implementation so far has been pretty poor on the models I’ve seen, at least compared to the useability of dedicated MP3 players.

I can see why it would be convenient though and I’m sure that with the iTunes brand behind it this one will do well. I’ve not seen any photos or specs as yet - watch this space!
