One of my friends has got an FM Transmitter for his iPod. It simply plugs into the iPod’s earphone socket and transmits what ever is playing to a set FM station meaning you can easily listen to what’s playing on your iPod on your car stereo wire free.

The GT Cube is the same sort of thing but in a much smaller box. It incorporates a microphone so can also be used as a hands free kit in your car. It does look a cool and useful gadget but only if you’re Korean

Have you ever got caught speeding? Most have at some point. I know myself that when I’m driving in a 30mph zone, sometimes I don’t notice if I’m doing 35mph. Before you know it those speed cameras have stored all your details and you’re on your way to a nasty speeding fine.

That’s why I’m glad someone out there invented the ‘INFORAD GPS Speed Camera Detector’ at a very affordable price. The initial cost is only £79.99 (nothing compared to a few tickets) and you get a free update for the first year. To update your device go to www.inforadgps.co.uk. Updates cost £24.99 per year or £49.99 for a lifetime subscription!

A new parachute system known as the Gryphon has been designed by ESG Elektroniksystem- und Logistik-GmbH and Dräger (not sure how you’re meant to pronounce that). The Gryphon enables parachutists to fly through the air at high speed before opening their chutes, so they could be dropped miles away and fly to their intended targets.
