Dominic Donaldson is a retailer of all gadgets and provides advice on all hardware.
The world of gadgets is moving at a rapid rate however Intel have recently predicted that the rise of the robots will not be for another 40 or so years. To curb your disappointment this article examines the latest in gadget technology for the office, to indulge the techno-holic in you. Recently the gadgets market has been saturated with relatively pointless USB toys so today we are looking at more practical gizmos.
First up we have something every business person can use, the Targus Mini USB Business Car Scanner. If you are involved in the business of networking in any way, shape or form, then this product could be a lifeline. This is especially the case if you are continually rummaging around your drawers or the rolodex on your desk looking for that vital contact. The scanner is powered by USB and is compatible with many applications including outlook, there is some instillation of software but it is very straight forward and it looks great.
With any organisation subcontracted by the government at any level voluntarily handing out personal information about the public you might not want to fall into the same trap. You do not have to with our next item which is the bad-boy of shredders, in fact if this shredder was in prison it would be the Daddy. The Fellowes Intellishred SB-89Ci can gobble a 20 page thick instruction manual without gagging and then ask for more. It is incredibly safe and has a traffic indicator which lights when you are reaching capacity. It costs around 200GBP however I bet the government wishes they had invested in it about now.
So now we have you organised and secure, it is time to take care of that six o-clock shadow. Whether it is on you legs or face, the Titanium 360 R5130 from Remington is the entry level flex and pivot offering from the toiletries manufacturer. It comes in at 70GBP and it is easy to clean, rechargeable and relatively cost effective in the electric razor world. Despite this, the plastic shell is cheap and the flexible heads are really not that flexible. It is a basic model and priced accordingly.
If you are someone who needs the latest gadgets and gizmos then these might be a little on the practical side for you. If you lean more toward the cheaper more pointless gadgets then maybe the wide selection of USB powered toy dinosaurs or singing animals are more suited. The three featured products serve a purpose and the first two are certainly top of the range, however with the Remington 360 you get what you pay for, mediocrity.
