Apple iPod nano, 8GB, Blue
Apple iPod nano, 8GB, Blue £69.95
The iPod nano gives you even more to play with. This version features a video camera, a polished anodized finish and a large 2.2-inch screen. It also has a built-in FM tuner that allows you to pause a broadcast with just a click. You’ll be able to shoot high quality video in portrait or landscape – perfect for posting on the web or emailing friends. It also includes a microphone that captures clean audio you can listen to during playback on the built-in speaker. Another clever new feature is VoiceOver. If you’re listening to a song and want to know the title or the artist, the new nano can tell you. So you won’t be distracted from your ride or run by looking down at your screen. You can also use the nano to help you stay fit, thanks to the pedometer function. The built-in accelerometer will keep track of your steps, so you can create a daily step goal or set it to Always On so it counts all the steps you take, all the time. Turn the nano on its side and you’ll be able to listen, watch, and play in new ways. In horizontal mode you can flick through your albums by the cover art, a bit like leafing through a box of LPs to find your favourite record. It’s great for displaying your photos too. Hold it upright to see them in portrait and turn it on its side to see them in landscape. The Genius feature will create playlists by finding songs in your library that go together perfectly. The nano is also responsive to your moves, so if you prefer a little unpredictability, give it a shake and it will shuffle to a different song. Watching movies, TV shows, and videos is great fun on the nano. You’ll enjoy crisp, vivid pictures on the bright widescreen display. Its 8GB capacity has enough room for 2000 songs or 7000 photos or 8 hours of video. And with 5 hours of video, and 24 hours of audio playback time from a single recharge, you’re bound to enjoy your music or movies without interruption. Note: The required software is downloadable from the Apple website. Features: PC and Mac compatible Completely skip-free playback 24 hours of continuous play (audio) from a 3-hour charge; 1.5-hour fast charge to 80% capacity Autosync your entire iTunes library Create playlists and rate songs Shuffle songs or albums Customise menus Store and view contacts, calendars and to-do lists.

It also carries the standard guarantee so you can buy with confidence. The PURE Highway lets you listen to DAB radio through your existing car stereo without the need for any specialist installation. It works by picking up a DAB signal from the built-in tuner, then transmitting the audio to your car stereo via FM. And it’s easy thanks to the quickSCAN feature finding the next available free FM frequency. Power comes from the 12 volt in-car power adaptor so you won’t need to scrabble around finding batteries on your journey either. There’s even a mount included, so you can quickly attach the unit to your windscreen like a sat nav. iPod and other MP3 player owners don’t need to feel left out either. The unit can be used to replay your portable digital audio device through your car’s hi-fi (3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo cable not included). A ReVu option lets you pause and skip back through live DAB radio, ensuring you don’t miss anything. As the Pure Highway can be run on batteries if required, the unit can be removed from your car, letting you enjoy your favourite radio shows from the comfort of the sofa listening with your own headphones.

Philips SDH8600UG/10 Wireless On-Ear Headphones
Philips SDH8600UG/10 Wireless On-Ear Headphones £129.95
The Philips SHD8600UG/10 headphones hands you the freedom to enjoy TV and music anywhere in your home. Your audio is digitally transmitted, delivering flawless reception and good sound reproduction. For added comfort and fit it features pivoting ear shells and a self-adjusting inner headband. Key benefits: The 2.4GHz digital transmission prevents compression and data loss between the transmitter and the headphones. The digital signals are converted to analogue signals at the end of the transmission process. The end-result is superb sound quality, with smooth acoustics and minimal data loss. Pure balanced sound is achieved by expert acoustic tuning for the speaker elements. In particular, the high tones and deep bass are reproduced with greater precision. The inner headband makes it easy to obtain a perfect fit for your head. The mechanism adjusts automatically for comfort. A perfect fit between the ear shells and your ears prevents sound leakage and enhances the listening experience. The ear shells move up and down as well as left and right for a perfect fit and optimum comfort. The smart and quick charge feature enables the battery to be fully recharged within a very short time span. The remaining power capacity present in the battery is determined by an internal circuit, so that the incoming voltage can be optimised for a quick recharge while at the same time maximising the battery lifespan. Its docking station provides convenient, tailor-made storage for your receiver when not in use, and on some models, it even takes care of battery charging
