Robomop, robot that will clean your house, amazing!!!


New model: The original Robomop has been updated to include a softbase for easy cleaning of corners, and also has a more powerful motor (RRP £44.95). Just take a look at the black coloured model.

We all know what it is like in the busy, busy world we live in..... too cream crackered when we get in at night to do the domestic bit; we just want to have fun. Life is too short, we work too hard, we HATE housework. With this thought in mind a clever chappy from the Nordic part of the world conjured up the wonderful idea of inventing a robotic dusting machine, you watch it do the work.

The RoboMop will run across your floor, and clean a 60 square metre surface with 98% accuracy in 1 hour. The 8.5 centimetre low mop actually cleans areas where you usually do not clean yourself like under sofas, beds and cupboards. (Where the real amounts of dust piles up).

If you've got rooms with laminate, lyno, tiled, or wooden floors (in fact anything hard, so not carpet) this helpful little chap will save you hours and hours of cleaning each month leaving you free to enjoy life to the max. Just watch the video clip at the above link to see the Robomop in action.

This clever little ball of tricks AKA the Robomop is charged up and a special electrostatic pad is placed on the bottom. It is then placed in the cleaning area and is good to go. You stipulate how long it scoots about your floor collecting dust. When the time is up simply pick up and put the cloth in the bin complete with all that yucky dust (99% of which is human dead skin – aaagh).

This reminds us of those funny hamster balls we used to have as kids with the poor long suffering hamster running around the lounge carpet; this is way more useful and much nicer to our furry little friends.

You get 5 free cleaning pads with each Robomop (that you simply attach to its underside), and you can also buy extra pads from us by clicking on the drop down menu above. A pack of 24 extra pads costs £4.95.

USB Missile Launcher


USB technology takes on new horizons with this missile launcher. We all love a good laugh in the office (too much on occasions according to He Who Must Be Obeyed! AKA the MD) so you can imagine the pandemonium and chaos that ensued when we got these in to play with.... Nearly as bad as when we got the fart machines in and they were all confiscated and we were all put on detention for being just silly.

The missile launcher is controlled from your keyboard or mouse..... After plugging it into your USB port, you get a mini program on your PC (see screenshot in images below) that enables you to aim your missiles and press the RED fire button when you're happy your victim is targeted.

So, just take aim and fire and wait for the squawk! Being sensible, mature, grown-ups (well on some rare occasions), we can confirm that the missiles are made of foam and so there is practically no danger of causing any harm to anyone or thing during your office war games.

Uses:

We have come up with the following uses to justify the purchase of this latest must have item, - can you come up with any more?

- Catching the eye of the dishy new boy or gorgeous new girl in your office
- Attracting attention to get a Malteser
- Exacting revenge for the kidnap of your Gonk/Teddy/Picture of your dog
- Just winding up the boss
- To be naughty
- Just for the shear hell of it

Magnification can be up to 28x on a 20-inch TV (if you need more than that it’s a great excuse to buy a 42″ plasma).

You can get the Color Max Digital Magnifier from first STREET for $449.

Inova X5 Flashlight(Military grade superior flashlight)


Hand machined from aircraft aluminium and finished with military grade hard coat anodising, the 12cm long Inova X5 is virtually indestructible. In fact, it is crush proof to 2000+ kg and waterproof to over 50 metres.

With five 110,000 hour life ultra-bright Inova LED lamps recessed into a patented stainless steel head heat sink, skilled machinists precisely drill and flare each of the five distinct projector holes to maximize beam projection range.

These stainless steel reflectors are so precise that the Inova X5's Effective Usage Range is more than 120 feet and offer up to 2-mile signal visibility. Lithium batteries generate up to 20 hours of light.

But this extraordinary hand-craftsmanship is not limited to machining. Each shockproof LED is individually potted (hand-sealed) into the head to assure both waterproofing and an operating range of -40°c to +50°c.

Just 10.6mm up from the reflector head is a new, patent pending three-way switch for any occasion. When the switch cap is fully screwed into the main body, the Inova X5 is Constantly On. One-half a counter-clockwise twist enables the intermittent mode (simply press and hold the rubber button for as long as light is required). Finally, to lock in the Constant Off mode, simply twist the switch cap another one-half counter clockwise revolution.

The switch-cap is ringed by a tactile knurling, and a 18mm lanyard hole has been individually drilled and chamfered (hand rounded) to minimize the possibility of wear and tearing of a cloth or plastic lanyard cord (the hole accommodates 550 parachute cord).

Asus Aura Mobile Phone


Asus Aura, produced by Hungarian design company Egy Studio for Taiwanese vendor. It was clearly inspired by iPhone, although it has some interesting innovations addressing commonly mentioned shortcomings of Apple's cellphone. Features of Asus Aura include - a sliding QWERTY keyboard that should make text entry much easier, 3,9″ touchscreen covering the whole surface of the phone, 2 megapixel camera, microSD memory card slot, GSM, UMTS, HSDPA, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.

Dual-Screened Nokia E90 Communicator Sees the Light of Day


The Nokia E90 Communicator has come out of the blurry shadows and into the sharp spotlight, showing off its 3.2 megapixel camera, Edge, WiFi and HDSPA goodness on two screens, one inside and the other out. That outside screen is a conventional 240x320 while inside it's packing an expansive 800x352 screen that can show you an entire width of a web page, no sweat.

If that's not enough, Nokia crammed even more stuff inside, including GPS with Nokia maps and an FM radio. For all that power and goodness, you're going to have to shell out some relatively big bucks—it'll set you back about $1000 without a contract, first available in Q2 of this year.
