For those of you who remember the good old cassette days then this device could be for you. If you have recently looked through your top 40 recording of the charts then you might find tracks from artists such as MC Hammer and even further back to bannanarama. What a classic set of songs you have there in old shoe boxes collecting dust. This is where the Plus Deck Cassette Converter comes in to play. The Plus Deck Cassette Converter fits in to a 5.25 inch drive bay on your PC. Basically stick the cassette in the front and away it plays through your sound card so you can capture those fond memories in digital glory.

The player/recorder comes with it’s own software that is simple to use and even has the classic auto reverse function that we all loved in our son walkmans.

Get pressing the Proverbial record and play and bring your childhood in to the digital age.

Available now for 99.99 pounds from here.

The Kenwood MediaKeg is a very small disk based DAP. From a review over at AV Watch it seems that the little DAP has got a nice review. The play has a 1 inch drive which is a tad slower then the 1.8 inch counterparts, but the shear small size and sleek looks will help them win you over. It weighs in at 340 dollars which isnt cheao though.

Here is another cool script that will let your wiimote control google earth. As you are probably all aware by now, Google Earth is a nice app by google which allows you to zoom in to a virtual globe and look at satellite images stitched together to give an amazing view of most places on the planet in high resolution. The wiimote script allows you to use the wiimote to control google earth and by tilting and moving around you can zoom in and browse around your faviorite locations on the planet.

The script is available after the video.

A lot of you readers will have probably got hold of a plastic sword and made funny shooshing noises like a light saber from StarWars. Well, for those of you with a Mac and a Wiimote you are now in luck.

When looking for a screen to wear you are often faced with some weird looking glasses for your face. Lumus-Optical seems like it could come to the rescue with the above prototype glasses. According to sources, the glasses feature a projector on the arm which projects the image on to the lens and gives what appears to be a 60 inch screen at 10 feet in front of you.

Hopefully more details will follow next month on this device.

For those who love Dr Who, then you need to check this out. Firebox are now offering the Cyberman Replica Display Helmet which you can buy. Cybermen are another of Dr Who’s enemies along side the Daleks too. When all 3 are in a room it is sure to be a great episode to watch on the screen. The cyberman helmets are created from the original moulds used for the latest Dr Who series and are not low in quality. They are made of 11 seperate components and the majority are cast in cold aluminium resin which makes the helmet look as it did on the screen and also cold to touch. None of these helmets are the same due to how they are produced although you would have to have a keen eye to spot the differences.

Do not try to wear this 🙂 It’s display only, so unfortunatly you cannot go scaring your friends.

Own yours now for the hefty price tag of 569.95 pounds. Order now from Firebox.

Advances in laser technology have now alowed 1TB of storage to be crammed on to a DVD. The read/write speeds also benefit from this too. It works with lasers that can work on multiple layers and sided discs. It’s a nice step forwards for DVD technology although I wonder how long DVD will be around with the advances in blu-ray discs which are happening. For those of you who are not familier with what 1TB is, it means terabyte which is 1000 gigabytes of information (which is a lot). This could store thousands and even millions of digital photographs.
