Take a look at this iPod look alike. The Apacer Steno AU860 comes with a lot of the features that you´ll see in the iPod. The design is quite similar as well. So why spend 50% more money for just the iPod brand when you can have just as much with the Apacer. It comes with 1.8 inch TFT color display perfect to display your photos. 20 Hours of playtime with the rechargeable LI-polimer batteries. FM-radio is standard. The Steno AU860 4GB MP3 player from Apacer delivers with a great stylish design and competes well against the more expensive iPod Nano. Good buy!

When you do a lot of travelling the boredom gets to you. The long flights or even worse the long train or bus rides feels like endless waiting and hours lost to nothing. I love my films and my computer games but I´m quite lazy as well. When I found this gadget from i-Vue I saw an end to the boring trips. The fact that it connects to almost every media unit says a lot. Imagine to just sit back with this video Eyewear and play your favorite game or watch that favorite movie. I love it. To me it means relaxing from my stressful work and it gives me the opportunity to isolate myself from the other passangers, almost like being alone at home in my sofa. In that sense the i-Vue Video Eyewear offers great value! The only shortage that I can see is the somewhat short battery life. 4 hours is usually not enough to take me through all of my trip.

You´ll find the i-Vue video glasses on the i-vue.net site selling for $259.
