If you’re in search of big screen entertainment without the need for a huge stack of complicated components, then the Denon S-102 WD networked entertainment system is the answer you’ve been looking for.

The Micro R/C 4-Channel Flying Saucer may well be one of the most sophisticated R/C flying vehicles you can lay your hands on, incorporating some amazing technology into a package hardly any bigger than your palm. The four propellers are surprisingly easy to control, thanks to the solid-state accelerometer built into the flying saucer which helps to keep it stable by sensing its position on two axes and automatically making the necessary adjustments, keeping you steady while in flight.

The stylish entry by the folks at Denon into the soundbar arena is the new X-Space DHT-FS3, and it looks like the designers have put a lot of thought into creating a system that would be as pleasing to look at as it is to listen to. The black finish and curved main speaker is much more slender than anything we’ve seen from Philips and Yamaha, and the menu can be easily accessed from anywhere using the supplied remote control, providing you with room and positioning options.
If you’re looking for a remote-control airplane that’s easy to fly, quick to charge, fun to use and capable of withstanding the punishment dealt out by a beginner pilot, then the Mini Bi-Plane is the one for you. Made from EPP polyfoam, it is extremely strong and lightweight, so that it can crash without suffering damage. Measuring only 2cm in length, and with a 23cm wingspan, this plane sports an adjustable rudder and elevator, and is powered by two 45mm propellers which are mounted on the back of the top wing. The plane is easily charged from the handheld controller unit.

The people at iHome have recently announced the release of their latest accessory for the iPod touch: the iH41, a new rotating alarm clock which allows you to watch videos on your iPod touch in landscape. The unusual shape of the iH41 can rotate around, allowing you to watch your videos on your iPod touch while it is being charged. The digital clock display will also rotate to face different directions depending on the unit’s position.
The 3-channel Mosquito 3.0 is the latest innovation in flying toy models. The orange LED eyes sported by the copter give it a spooky look when flying in the dark, and the whole model is less than half the size and weight of the original best-selling bladerunner helicopter. Even with its small size, the Mosquito 3.0 has precision performance, being the most precise model in the bladerunner’s range.
